• A BSP is a Board Support Package, and is the only part of NicheTask that is tied to the particular hardware and toolchain selected for the project. This is the code which initializes the processor and peripherals, initializes the interrupt mechanism and performs task switches. In the simplest case (for example the Win32 and x86/Linux ports, which don’t use interrupts) the BSP sets up a task’s stack so that when a task calls the scheduler, it “returns” from another task.
