Hello Harald,

yes, I concluded myself that the critical section inside
NutEventPostFromIrq() is not needed when send from an IRQ routine. The code
I worked on last week used the library with the critical section removed and
the patch I will apply to trunk will have the critical section removed too.


Bye
