Buy Epic Local Pass -

Hi all,

I'm using ST's CubeMX implementation on a F4 discovery board. I use ST's USB middlewares with FreeRTOS.

When I get a special OutputReport from PC side I have to answer nearly immediately (in 10-15 ms). Currently I cannot achieve this timing and it seems my high priority tasks can interrupt the USB callback. What do you think, is it possible? Because it's generated code I'm not sure but can I increase the priority of the USB interrupt (if there is any)?

Thank you, David

10 to 15 ms is very slow, so I'm sure its possible.

Where is the USB callback function called from? If it is an interrupt then it cannot be interrupted by high priority RTOS tasks. Any non interrupt code (whether you are using an RTOS or not) can only run if no interrupts are running.

Without knowing the control flow in your application its hard to know what to suggest. How is the OutputReport communicated to you? By an interrupt, a message from another task, or some other way?

The callback which receive the data from PC is called from the OTGFSIRQHandler (it's the part of the HALPCDIRQHandler function). I think the problem is SysTickHandler's priority is higher than OTGFSIRQHandler and it's cannot be modified, but the scheduler shouldn't interrupt the OTGFSIRQHandler with any task handled by the scheduler. Am I wrong that the scheduler can interrupt the OTGFS_IRQHandler?

For the modern skier or snowboarder, the transition from casual visitor to dedicated enthusiast often hinges on a single logistical decision: the season pass. Among the various options offered by Vail Resorts , the stands out as a strategic middle ground, offering a high-value entry point for those who want a premium mountain experience without the unrestricted price tag of a full Epic Pass.

Ultimately, the Epic Local Pass is more than a ticket; it is a commitment to the season. It rewards those who are organized enough to buy early and flexible enough to avoid the busiest holidays. By bridging the gap between local hills and global destinations, it democratizes access to some of the most iconic terrain in North America, making the dream of a winter spent on the slopes a practical reality.

However, the decision to buy is often a race against the clock and a lesson in financial timing. Vail Resorts typically offers the lowest prices during the spring and early summer, with costs incrementally increasing as winter approaches. Furthermore, the pass includes benefits beyond just lift access, such as "Buddy Tickets" and "Ski with a Friend" discounts, which allow pass holders to bring guests at a reduced rate. For many, these perks turn a solo hobby into a social tradition, anchoring a winter's worth of trips and memories.

The primary appeal of the Epic Local Pass is its balance of cost and access. It provides unlimited, holiday-restricted access to major hubs like Breckenridge, Keystone, and Stevens Pass, while also offering a significant number of days at world-class destinations such as Vail, Beaver Creek, and Whistler Blackcomb. For a traveler based in a hub city or near a local feeder hill, this pass pays for itself in just a few days of riding. Reviews from regional ski communities often highlight it as the preferred choice for families and intermediate riders who can plan around "peak dates" to maximize their time on the snow.

Thank you for the answer, I think I'm a bit confused with the Cortex ISR priorities :-) What I can observe is if I use a much higher osDelay in my high priority task I can respond for the received USB message much faster. This is why I think tasks can mess up with my OTG interrupt.
