What causes "Corrupt Stack" messages in coredump?

[squirtle321]

I'm trying to debug an IWDT timeout and inspecting the coredump I notice that the crashed task seems to always have the message:

Backtrace stopped: previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)

What causes these messages? I notice that the contents of the back trace with that message does not match the functions that would likely be called by the task, i.e. i2c_isr_handler_default in the btController task, or IDLE task.

Here is an example backtrace and coredump:

Code: Select all

Guru Meditation Error: Core  0 panic'ed (Interrupt wdt timeout on CPU0).

[MicroController]

the contents of the back trace with that message does not match the functions that would likely be called by the task, i.e. i2c_isr_handler_default in the btController task, or IDLE task.

It looks like the stack is deemed "corrupt" for the interrupt handler(s); which could make sense: i2c_isr_handler_default is an interrupt handler function, and as such is never called by any code like a regular function. Thus, a tool assuming to find a call hierarchy on the stack may be confused because there is no call hierarchy leading to the ISR; the ISR just "happens" and uses the stack of whichever task it interrupted in whichever intermediate state the stack may be at that moment.

Thanks for the response.

That all makes sense to me, I suppose some of the coredump information is less relevant when debugging issues with respect to ISRs.

I'm having troubles related to the interrupt watchdog timer. What tools are there that could help find which ISRs are being starved from processor time? Is there a way to find what ISRs are waiting through a coredump or perhaps GDB?

From https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... /wdts.html:

The Interrupt Watchdog is responsible for detecting instances where FreeRTOS task switching is blocked for a prolonged period of time.

Sounds like there may be one of two possible problems:

• Some code disabled interrupts (critical section) or task switching, and did not re-enable it in time, possibly due to it erroneously calling FreeRTOS functions or otherwise waiting for another signal, or
• Some code is running in an ISR context (like, e.g., a callback for the hr timer in ISR mode) and waiting/blocking there.
