.. module:: zephyr :synopsis: functionality specific to Zephyr

The zephyr module contains functions and classes specific to the Zephyr port.

Functions

.. function:: is_preempt_thread()

Returns true if the current thread is a preemptible thread.

Zephyr preemptible threads are those with non-negative priority values (low priority levels), which therefore, can be supplanted as soon as a higher or equal priority thread becomes ready.

.. function:: current_tid()

Returns the thread id of the current thread, which is used to reference the thread.

.. function:: thread_analyze(cpu)

Runs the Zephyr debug thread analyzer on the current thread on the given cpu and prints stack size statistics in the format:

"``thread_name``-20s: STACK: unused ``available_stack_space`` usage ``stack_space_used``
/ ``stack_size`` (``percent_stack_space_used`` %); CPU: ``cpu_utilization`` %"

* *CPU utilization is only printed if runtime statistics are configured via the ``CONFIG_THREAD_RUNTIME_STATS`` kconfig*

This function can only be accessed if CONFIG_THREAD_ANALYZER is configured for the port in zephyr/prj.conf. For more information, see documentation for Zephyr thread analyzer <https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/guides/debug_tools/thread-analyzer.html#thread-analyzer>_.

Note that the cpu argument is only used in Zephyr v4.0.0 and newer and ignored otherwise.

.. function:: shell_exec(cmd_in)

Executes the given command on an UART backend. This function can only be accessed if CONFIG_SHELL_BACKEND_SERIAL is configured for the port in zephyr/prj.conf.

A list of possible commands can be found in the documentation for Zephyr shell commands <https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/reference/shell/index.html?highlight=shell_execute_cmd#commands>_.
