MQX4.1: USB CDC stack memory allocation failure

huishao2 — Fri, 26 Sep 2014 05:51:48 GMT

Hi-

Does anyone have ever enabled USB CDC device on a MK20DX128VFM5 with 16KB RAM only? I run into memory allocation failure in MAX 4.1 k20d50m BSP usb\device\source\device\dev_main.c:

USB_STATUS _usb_device_init
   (
      /* [IN] the USB device controller to initialize */
      struct usb_dev_if_struct *usb_if,

/* [OUT] the USB_USB_dev_initialize state structure */
_usb_device_handle *handle,

      /* [IN] number of endpoints to initialize */
      _mqx_uint                 endpoints
   )
{ /* Body */

...

/* Initialize the USB interface. */

if (dev_if->DEV_PREINIT != NULL)

{

error = dev_if->DEV_PREINIT((_usb_device_handle *) &usb_dev_ptr);

}

...

}

The function call above ends up with a NULL usb_dev_ptr due to a ~3KB memory allocation failure. Since this model of K20 has only 16KB memory, I just want to know if it is feasible to bring up USB CDC stack on this chip.

Thanks

Hui

Added some more details.

The exact failure place is in usb\device\source\device\khci\khci_dev_main.c, where 2432 bytes of memory is allocated:

USB_STATUS _usb_dci_usbfs_preinit
(
    /* [IN] the USB device handle */
    _usb_device_handle *handle_ptr
)
{
    USB_KHCI_DEV_STATE_STRUCT_PTR usb_dev_ptr = (USB_KHCI_DEV_STATE_STRUCT_PTR) USB_mem_alloc_zero(sizeof(USB_KHCI_DEV_STATE_STRUCT));
    KHCI_XD_STRUCT_PTR            xd_ptr;
    SCRATCH_STRUCT_PTR            temp_scratch_ptr;
    _mqx_uint j;

    if (NULL != usb_dev_ptr) {
        /* Allocate MAX_XDS_FOR_TR_CALLS */
        usb_dev_ptr->G.XD_BASE = (XD_STRUCT_PTR) USB_mem_alloc_zero(sizeof(KHCI_XD_STRUCT) * MAX_XDS_FOR_TR_CALLS);

        if (usb_dev_ptr->G.XD_BASE == NULL)
        {
            #if DEV_DEBUG
            printf("2 memalloc failed in _usb_device_init\n");
            #endif

...

I got this resolved by disabling unused components from user_config.h and the code that are used for previous k20 project. Now the memory allocation seems to be OK for the tight 16KB RAM. But my CDC device still doesn't get enumerated on PC, will start a new thread for the question.

Hi Hui Shao,

Thank you for share your solution,

Have a nice day!

Hi Sol

Actually my USB device also gets enumerates successfully. The Freescale INF file for Windows had been installed for previous project, that is why Windows doesn't prompt for a new hardware found during USB attachment. It simply shows one more COM port in Device Manager which was overlooked.

Thanks!
