I am getting the hardfault in the else part…
Hardfault in prvAllocate TCBAndStack
Hi
I am working with the cortex – m0plus controller. when we optimize the code to -O2 we are getting the hardfault during the debug.
static tskTCB *prvAllocateTCBAndStack( unsigned short usStackDepth, portSTACK_TYPE *puxStackBuffer )
{
tskTCB *pxNewTCB;
Hardfault in prvAllocate TCBAndStack
I just tried this GCC Cortex-M0+ project with optimisations set to -O0, -O2 and -O3, and in each case the code executed as expected.

Your code appears to be crashing when it calls a library function, not when it is calling a FreeRTOS function. You could try writing your own simple memset() implementation to see if that helps.
