UART interrupt call k_fifo_put does not take effect

hi professor,

In the uart interrupt I call k_fifo_put to trigger rx process thread but it is not take effect.What person cause this question?

[Vidar Berg]

Hello,

Have you verified through debugging that k_fifo_put() actually gets called?

Thanks,

Vidar

I'm sure k_fifo_put was called.

This shows that your rx thread is indeed running, just not in the order you expected it to. But how to you confirm what the actual interrupt sequence is? I notice that the timestamp at 47 and 49 are the same which indicates that both interrupts were triggered simultaneously.

[sunnyyang]

But how to you confirm what the actual interrupt sequence is? --- The number 9 indicates uart irq running. The number 10 indicates gpio irq running.So actual interrupt sequence is 9->10. The number 9 timestamp is 2375092975 ns.The number 10 timesatmp is 3370454303 ns. That's meaning uart irq not trigger rx process thread unitl gpio irq was called.

I see. So the uart irq is not processed until after gpio irq, even though the uart irq came first. 

Is your UART IRQ configured as a Zero latency interrupt by any chance? The documentation states that you should not use kernel APIs from such interrupts and that it can lead to undefined behavior.

I use the "IRQ_DIRECT_CONNECT(SPIM0_SPIS0_TWIM0_TWIS0_UARTE0_IRQn, 0, nrfx_uarte_0_irq_handler,0)" to init uart irq. It is zero latency interrupt. But I use the "IRQ_CONNECT(SPIM0_SPIS0_TWIM0_TWIS0_UARTE0_IRQn, 0, nrfx_uarte_0_irq_handler, NULL, 0)" to init uart irq. The problem remains.So How to init uart irq? Actually I don't need zero latency interrupt.

Please pass 'nrfx_isr' to the IRQ_CONNECT() macro like we do in our nrfx sample here: https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/c3208e7ff49d22d8271f305344382e9306fdde99/samples/boards/nrf/nrfx/src/main.c#L37

According to the link, I use the "IRQ_CONNECT(SPIM0_SPIS0_TWIM0_TWIS0_UARTE0_IRQn, 0, nrfx_isr, nrfx_uarte_0_irq_handler, 0)" to init uart irq.But the problem remains.

[Vidar Berg]

Thanks for confirming. But I'm afraid I can't think of anything else that can cause this behavior. Are you able to share the rest of your code or create a minimal sample that will allow me to reproduce this here?

Edit: Can you show the struct declaration for sensor_operate_t ?

typedef struct
{
void *fifo_reserved;
uint32_t uiSensorState;
}sensor_operate_t;

I'm unable to extract your *.rar file for some reason. Could you please try to upload it again and maybe as a .zip instead?
