Waits for a direct to task notification to be pending at a given index within an array of direct to task notifications.

See https://www.FreeRTOS.org/RTOS-task-notifications.html for details.

configUSE_TASK_NOTIFICATIONS must be undefined or defined as 1 for this function to be available.

Each task has a private array of “notification values” (or ‘notifications’), each of which is a 32-bit unsigned integer (uint32_t). The constant configTASK_NOTIFICATION_ARRAY_ENTRIES sets the number of indexes in the array, and (for backward compatibility) defaults to 1 if left undefined. Prior to FreeRTOS V10.4.0 there was only one notification value per task.

Events can be sent to a task using an intermediary object. Examples of such objects are queues, semaphores, mutexes and event groups. Task notifications are a method of sending an event directly to a task without the need for such an intermediary object.

A notification sent to a task can optionally perform an action, such as update, overwrite or increment one of the task’s notification values. In that way task notifications can be used to send data to a task, or be used as light weight and fast binary or counting semaphores.

A notification sent to a task will remain pending until it is cleared by the task calling xTaskNotifyWaitIndexed() or ulTaskNotifyTakeIndexed() (or their un-indexed equivalents). If the task was already in the Blocked state to wait for a notification when the notification arrives then the task will automatically be removed from the Blocked state (unblocked) and the notification cleared.

A task can use xTaskNotifyWaitIndexed() to [optionally] block to wait for a notification to be pending, or ulTaskNotifyTakeIndexed() to [optionally] block to wait for a notification value to have a non-zero value. The task does not consume any CPU time while it is in the Blocked state.

NOTE Each notification within the array operates independently - a task can only block on one notification within the array at a time and will not be unblocked by a notification sent to any other array index.

Backward compatibility information: Prior to FreeRTOS V10.4.0 each task had a single “notification value”, and all task notification API functions operated on that value. Replacing the single notification value with an array of notification values necessitated a new set of API functions that could address specific notifications within the array. xTaskNotifyWait() is the original API function, and remains backward compatible by always operating on the notification value at index 0 in the array. Calling xTaskNotifyWait() is equivalent to calling xTaskNotifyWaitIndexed() with the uxIndexToWaitOn parameter set to 0.

@param uxIndexToWaitOn The index within the calling task’s array of notification values on which the calling task will wait for a notification to be received. uxIndexToWaitOn must be less than configTASK_NOTIFICATION_ARRAY_ENTRIES. xTaskNotifyWait() does not have this parameter and always waits for notifications on index 0.

@param ulBitsToClearOnEntry Bits that are set in ulBitsToClearOnEntry value will be cleared in the calling task’s notification value before the task is marked as waiting for a new notification (provided a notification is not already pending). Optionally blocks if no notifications are pending. Setting ulBitsToClearOnEntry to ULONG_MAX (if limits.h is included) or 0xffffffffUL (if limits.h is not included) will have the effect of resetting the task’s notification value to 0. Setting ulBitsToClearOnEntry to 0 will leave the task’s notification value unchanged.

@param ulBitsToClearOnExit If a notification is pending or received before the calling task exits the xTaskNotifyWait() function then the task’s notification value (see the xTaskNotify() API function) is passed out using the pulNotificationValue parameter. Then any bits that are set in ulBitsToClearOnExit will be cleared in the task’s notification value (note *pulNotificationValue is set before any bits are cleared). Setting ulBitsToClearOnExit to ULONG_MAX (if limits.h is included) or 0xffffffffUL (if limits.h is not included) will have the effect of resetting the task’s notification value to 0 before the function exits. Setting ulBitsToClearOnExit to 0 will leave the task’s notification value unchanged when the function exits (in which case the value passed out in pulNotificationValue will match the task’s notification value).

@param pulNotificationValue Used to pass the task’s notification value out of the function. Note the value passed out will not be effected by the clearing of any bits caused by ulBitsToClearOnExit being non-zero.

@param xTicksToWait The maximum amount of time that the task should wait in the Blocked state for a notification to be received, should a notification not already be pending when xTaskNotifyWait() was called. The task will not consume any processing time while it is in the Blocked state. This is specified in kernel ticks, the macro pdMS_TO_TICKS( value_in_ms ) can be used to convert a time specified in milliseconds to a time specified in ticks.

@return If a notification was received (including notifications that were already pending when xTaskNotifyWait was called) then pdPASS is returned. Otherwise pdFAIL is returned.
