   > @sebastianene07 you can rebase this patch now, I have an idea which may avoid to touch the common code and will try in the next couple day.
   
   Thanks for the update, I figured it out and we don't have to modify the common code to pass arguments to new tasks. The entry point for a new task is ```nxtask_start``` and this function takes no arguments. It grabs the arguments (argc and argv) from the TCB and calls the `tcb->cmn.entry.main` with them. So the mechanism to pass the arguments is very generic and works like a charm in our case without any modification.
