K22 MXQ4.02 serial port will miss characters if paste a lot of commands together(cause overflow and RX_OVERRUNS)

[wangsonwang]

Hi,

I searched the same question but not found similar ones. As title described, when I paste a lot of commands at the same time, eg: help, or wmiconfig.. (More than 10+), the shell will echo some of them (maybe 6), the remained commands will not be executed. This can be understood because UART can't handle high-speed data/cmd input/output. Am I right? I set 8-n-1 no flowcontrol and 115200 baud rate.

When above action is done, the next serial input will be misplaced. when I input "help", the serial output will be "xhel" where x is the last character just before the current input. Most times it is "\r". That means when I input "12345" it can only show "123", when I input "\n \n", the "45" will be displayed on serial port.

I verified with almost the same SDK on K60 (120Mhz MCU), this issue can't be found. But when I try on K22(50Mhz MCU), it can be reproduced easily. Would anyone give some advice?Thanks.

HI,

I am experiencing the same issue with MQX 4.1 and a K64 @ 100MHz. Are you willing to share your solution?

To reproduce it, here is a summary of my setup:

- MQX Shell task on UART1 (polled mode, baud:115200)

- Task busy processing data over UART0 (interrupt mode, baud:9600)

-  I have a application with several tasks including some RTCS ones but they are all idle

Using my terminal application I use a "SendFile" function which sends the file at the 115200 baud continually until the file is sent. This will intermittently cause the exact issue that you have described.

Thanks,

Tim

Hi wangson wang,

I need to reproduce this issue, so are you using a MQX example or could you share a code example in order to test this issue??

Have a great day,
Sol

Hi Soledad,

I have found root cause and fixed it. MQX4.0.2 SDK missed handling serial overflow case but I'm still wondering why it happens on K22 instead of K60.
