Why do Kinetis need MQX_USE_IDLE_TASK enabled? Does the idle task actually have to execute, what is higher priority tasks never allow it to schedule?

Cheers,

Bill

Hi,

The idle task is required in Kinetis MQX kernel code by design – we cannot run without it.

The idle task runs in case there is no other task to run.
