[ECOS] Interrupt vs Thread - shared resource

[Szentirmai Gergely <gergely dot szentirmai at axelero dot hu>]

Hello

I describe my problem with a simplified example: I have a thread, which 
works with a buffer, and an ISR (or DSR), which would add some byte to 
this buffer too, so it is a shared resource. Since it is unable wait for 
a flag, or mutex in ISR, when the thread's code working with the buffer, 
the interrupt can jam the data.
The only solution is to disable the interrupt for that critical section 
in the thread? Isn't there a better solution?

I hope I was clear.

Thanks!
