iMX8MP: VPU hangs after playback

santhanakumar — Sun, 29 Jan 2023 07:28:59 GMT

Hi Everyone,

We have a custom board based on imx8mp.
I tried to build the latest Yocto (Yocto version: Kirkstone, Linux Kernel version: 5.15) following the below document:
https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/user-guide/IMX_YOCTO_PROJECT_USERS_GUIDE.pdf

I configured Yocto with the below parameters:
Distro: fsl-imx-xwayland
Machine: imx8mp-lpddr4-evk
Image: imx-image-full
I could able to build the image successfully.

I did not make any changes to the SDK and generated default image for imx8mp evk.
I then tried to evaluate VPU by running gstreamer and able to play 1080p video without issues.
But system freezes after playback is complete.
Please find the below logs for the same.

The logs are taken from serial console and has both gstramer and kernel logs.
System hangs and not usable after playback is complete.

Please confirm gstreamer is validated with video playback in the latest SDK.
I am playing the below video in Gstreamer:

I have tested your sample video on i.mx8mp evk board successfully, pls compare your own code with nxp bsp to debug your own code

Hi Joanxie,

As I mentioned before, I am using EVK image to test VPU.
I am just appending our uboot on top of EVK image and this should replicate EVK behaviour in our board as well.

Could you please share the image that you used for testing VPU in EVK so that i can test here as well to understand the issue.

Also, we are using 4G memory compared to 6G memory used in EVK.
I find the below cma settings in evk dtb.

linux,cma {
compatible = "shared-dma-pool";
reusable;
size = <0 0x3c000000>;
alloc-ranges = <0 0x40000000 0 0xC0000000>;
linux,cma-default;
};

Do we need to modify CMA node in DTB for 4G memory size?
Please share your inputs.
Also please share the evk image used for testing VPU.

Regards,
Santhana Kumar

I just use 5.15 demo images from

"https://www.nxp.com/design/software/embedded-software/i-mx-software/embedded-linux-for-i-mx-applications-processors:IMXLINUX"

since you use new DDR, did you pass the stress test tool? and did you change the uboot according to your new DDR? pls try to pass stress test firsly

Hi Kumar,

Its looks like you have issues with Audio DSP. Try to play video without audio output (disable it).

Re: iMX8MP: VPU hangs after playback

santhanakumar — Thu, 23 Mar 2023 08:42:20 GMT

I could able to fix the issue myself.
Actually, the problem exists only in 4G memory version of our board and no issues are observed in 2G version.
I have removed power management routines from hantro decoder; playback now works fine.
