What is the 3.0 replacement for CORTEX_PRIORITY_SYSTICK?

I am using 3.0 in tick mode and just realized that I have no idea what is the priority of my virtual timers which I assume are on the systick handler.

CORTEX_PRIORITY_SYSTICK is not mentioned in the code anymore and I am not sure if CORTEX_PRIORITY_SVCALL is what I need.

Hi,

Systick is no more handled in the Cortex port layer, now there is a new "ST" (SysTick) driver in HAL, related settings are there. Note that in tickless mode the systick cortex timer is not used.

Sounds like STM32_ST_IRQ_PRIORITY is CORTEX_PRIORITY_SYSTICK replacement

Wonder how many people are confused by "ST" abbreviation. Would it be beneficial to mention SysTick in the @brief or @details?

* @file st.c
* @brief ST Driver code.

* @file st.h
* @brief ST Driver macros and structures.
* @details This header is designed to be include-able without having to
* include other files from the HAL.
