MSP430 IAR Compiler – FreeRTOS issue

I have written an rtc module for MSP430 device which captures date/time every one minute. This module uses freertos queue for sending the date/time event to another task. Though the time date-time details are captured every one minute, one or more of the details (either year, month, hour or ..) are getting corrupted depending upon whether the code optimization is set or not and whether the event object (ui_queue_event variable in the code below into which RTC time details are loaded ) is declared static or local in the interrupt function. Actually there are 4 test cases.
1. Optimization set to none and time receiving event object declared local.
2. Optimization set to a value and time receiving event object declared local.
3. Optimization set to none and time receiving event object declared static.
4. Optimization set to a value and time receiving event object declared static. The time data is corrupted consistently for each of the above 4 cases. In one case, it may be year corruption, in another case it may be hour corruption and so on. All the time details may be consistently correct for one of the cases. The pattern of corruption remained the same as long as the code is IAR compiled on a particular system. But if I compile the code in another system, the pattern of corruption for the above 4 cases differs. I tried compiling the code on 3 different systems running version 5.10.1.50144 of IAR MSP430 compiler. Another point is the I am getting the “second” always as zero even when if I set it to a value during initialization of RTC module. Can this be a stack problem? I am not getting any stack overflow error messages while debugging. Or is FreeRTOS creating problems here? Please help. I am listing below the rtc code and the test code. RTC Module code

MSP430 IAR Compiler – FreeRTOS issue

Which MSP430 port are you using? The brand new MSP430X port, the old MSP430 port, or a third party one? I don’t know much about this one, but the thing that sticks out in your code is the manipulation of the interrupt enable bits in the interrupt itself. That is probably dangerous for a port that does not support nesting. In fact doing it that way would be dangerous for a port that does support nesting. Have you tried removing the disable and enable calls from the interrupt handler, all of them? The disable probably does nothing anyway, and the enables are the dangerous ones.

Also, check you have stack overflow checking switched on.
