Hang calling i2s_stream_set_clk during music play

Postby felixcollins » Fri Nov 03, 2023 3:36 am

IDF :4.4.6
ADF :2.0.3

My pipeline is:
sdcard with mp3 file -> fatfs_stream_element_handle -> mp3_decoder_element_handle -> i2s_stream_writer_element

I have a task (thread 15 "music_task") that processes calls control messages from the app and events from the audio pipeline. When the mp3 element reports the sample rate etc. the music_task calls i2s_stream_set_clk() to set the output sample rate. Occasionally this call seems to hang when acquiring the sempahore protecting the i2s_stream element config.

I've set a task watchdog on the music_task so that I do not get a hang. When the watchdog fires it triggers a panic that does a core dump to flash. Shown below is the coredump decoded and output from gdb. I suspect that this is a deadlock situation. Can anyone shed any light on this? What would be a good work-around?

There is a httpd and mdns set up too but the hang seems to occur even if wifi is turned off (as is the case in the core dump below).

The thread priorities and core affinity for the tasks with no music playing (no audio element tasks). I can't figure out how to recover the task priority from the core dump. Doe anyone know the gdb command?

SOLVED: Hang calling i2s_stream_set_clk during music play

Postby felixcollins » Sun Nov 05, 2023 8:47 pm

Okay, I think I found it... sigh.

https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/bl ... 2s.c#L1615
The function i2s_set_clk(i2s_port_t i2s_num, uint32_t rate, uint32_t bits_cfg, i2s_channel_t ch) in the i2s driver code takes a mutex at the beginning. Sprinkled around inside the function before the mutex give, are several early returns. If anything goes wrong, your i2s driver is now dead. They have sneaked in through the use of the ESP_RETURN_ON_ERROR() macro. Pretty scary...

Looking in the head of the repo that driver seems to have been completely rewritten to use a different thread synchronisation strategy entirely. I guess I have two choices, try for a work-around that gives the mutex on any error condition or try to upgrade from IDF 4.4 to IDF 5.

Would anyone at Espressif care to comment? Is there a backported bug fix? How can the ADF continue to ship with this buggy IDF code as the standard supported version?
