Just tested with -O3 optimization, results are a little better.

Uhm, the strange results have something in common, the thread is created at higher priority, the only thing I can think is that the compiler bug is triggered in chThdWakeupS(), in that function there are two code paths depending if the target thread is at a lower or higher priority.

Could you try with low optimizations and by setting CH_OPTIMIZE_SPEED to FALSE? (disables enforced inlining)

Good suggestions Giovanni :)
With -O2 and CH_OPTIMIZE_SPEED to FALSE results are:

So a bug seems to be compiler related.

Uhm yes, related to inlining apparently.

What is the operating frequency?

Sources are available at http://svn.code.sf.net/p/chibios/svn/branches/rl78_dev.

Notes:
- tick timer is hardcoded at 1KHz
- serial driver works only in tx mode at the moment, rx part is not implemented yet
- only UART1 (SD2) is available with hardcoded 8N1 9600bps at 32MHz cpu clock
- there are no makefiles, just Code::Blocks demo project
- GCC toolchain is at http://www.kpitgnutools.com

lbednarz, how you debug your project in C::B? I is interesting to use onboard debugger in Eclipse or Codeblocks.
