Hello everyone,

I have written a code to send/receive ip packets over rs485. Its (almost) working.The receiver is started with a uart interrupt and starts a dma transfer. When the dma is finished it should fire a interrupt but this not always the case. It stops firing dma interrupts after a random time. I checked if the dma cannel was still active with the function GPDMA_IntGetStatus(GPDMA_STAT_ENABLED_CH, 0) and it returned SET so it is still running. When i enable the uart irq it is still firing so there is data in the FIFO.

How can i debug this problem?

Thank you in advance!
