MQX: Stack Ethernet: Send/Received blocked?

[arnogir]

Hello

I'm using MQX 4.2 on a Kinetis K60.

In normal case, all work correctly: Ethernet Modbus is received, managed and response is done.

But sometime, When request is done so fast, at a moment, is blocked. Response is not done to a request, and new request not unblock the recv task.

Bellow is an extract of my code:

Initialization in a main task:

/* Allocates resources that RTCS needs and creates TCP/IP task. */ RTCS_create(); /* Read Board ID Number in NV Memory and then Get Mac Address */ ENET_get_mac_address(DV_ETH_ENET_DEVICE, MACLowAddress, DV_Eth_MacAddress); /* Initializes the Ethernet device, adds network interface, and sets up the IPCFG context for it. */ ipcfg_init_device(DV_ETH_ENET_DEVICE, DV_Eth_MacAddress); Error = ipcfg_bind_staticip(DV_ETH_ENET_DEVICE, &DV_Eth_IpData);      DV_Eth_TCPSocketAddr.sin_family       = AF_INET; DV_Eth_TCPSocketAddr.sin_port         = DV_Eth_iGetTCPRxTxPort(); DV_Eth_TCPSocketAddr.sin_addr.s_addr  = INADDR_ANY;  /* Create TCP socket */ DV_Eth_TCPSocketID = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); /* Bind TCP socket */ bind(DV_Eth_TCPSocketID, &DV_Eth_TCPSocketAddr, sizeof(DV_Eth_TCPSocketAddr)); /* Listen on TCP port */ listen(DV_Eth_TCPSocketID, 0);  DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID = accept(DV_Eth_TCPSocketID, &DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketAddr, &DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketAddrLen);   /* Set socket options */ Option = TRUE;      setsockopt(DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID, SOL_TCP, OPT_SEND_NOWAIT, &Option, sizeof(Option)); setsockopt(DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID, SOL_TCP, OPT_SEND_PUSH, &Option, sizeof(Option));

In a receive task, which is always in blocked state and run as soon as satagram is received:

Task: while(1) {  ReadSize = recv(DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID, BufferPtr, BufferSize, 0);   /* Applciation data managment (Ethernet Modbus) */  Note : This part can call DV_Eth_SendMsg to make a ModBus response  [...] }

internal function DV_Eth_SendMsg:

uint32_t DV_Eth_SendMsg(uint8_t *BufferPtr, uint32_t BufferSize) {      int32_t WriteSize = 0;   WriteSize = send(DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID, BufferPtr, BufferSize, 0);     return((uint32_t)WriteSize); }

Bellow is WireShark trace:

Target ACK the request, but no response
Etc...

In parrallale I have a task which detect cable deconnect:

(simplified code):

if (ipcfg_get_link_active(DV_ETH_ENET_DEVICE) == FALSE) {  printf("Cable disconnected\n");         printf("\nWaiting for ethernet cable plug in ...\n");  /* Close TCP socket */  DV_Eth_iTCPState = DV_ETH_TCP_WAIT_CONNECT;  DV_Eth_iCloseSocket(DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID);  ....    if (ipcfg_get_link_active(DV_ETH_ENET_DEVICE) == TRUE)   {   /* Wait new connection */   DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID = accept(DV_Eth_TCPSocketID, &DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketAddr, &DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketAddrLen);     /* Set socket options */   Option = TRUE;        setsockopt(DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID, SOL_TCP, OPT_SEND_NOWAIT, &Option, sizeof(Option));   setsockopt(DV_Eth_TCPClientSocketID, SOL_TCP, OPT_SEND_PUSH, &Option, sizeof(Option));  } }

if I made a cable deconnection/deconnection, socket is reinitialized, but problem still present. Is is mandatory to Reset the µC to make a new MQX init.

Is somebody has an Idea, what can I read to try to found where come from my problem? Is any internal MQX status or flag to read can help me to found where the problem come from?

I have a problem in my code?

Thank

Hello

I found the problem

In fact, my modbus application could use some interface via SPI.

Then The SPI access was done via the same file on many task. In my case, one task was preempted by other. twice done SPI access.

When bug occurs, it caused by a task pre empted while SPI communication was in progress and the new task done also an access.

This should cause problem on Interrupt managment and then blocked some action like Ethernet...
