Overview
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
In certain situations, the execution of the program can not be continued in a well-defined way. In ESP-IDF, these situations include:
|
|
|
|
- CPU Exceptions: |CPU_EXCEPTIONS_LIST|
|
|
- System level checks and safeguards:
|
|
|
|
.. list::
|
|
|
|
- :doc:`Interrupt watchdog <../api-reference/system/wdts>` timeout
|
|
- :doc:`Task watchdog <../api-reference/system/wdts>` timeout (only fatal if :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_TASK_WDT_PANIC` is set)
|
|
- Cache access error
|
|
:SOC_MEMPROT_SUPPORTED: - Memory protection fault
|
|
- Brownout detection event
|
|
- Stack overflow
|
|
- Stack smashing protection check
|
|
- Heap integrity check
|
|
- Undefined behavior sanitizer (UBSAN) checks
|
|
|
|
- Failed assertions, via ``assert``, ``configASSERT`` and similar macros.
|
|
|
|
This guide explains the procedure used in ESP-IDF for handling these errors, and provides suggestions on troubleshooting the errors.
|
|
|
|
Panic Handler
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Every error cause listed in the `Overview`_ will be handled by the *panic handler*.
|
|
|
|
The panic handler will start by printing the cause of the error to the console. For CPU exceptions, the message will be similar to
|
|
|
|
.. parsed-literal::
|
|
|
|
Guru Meditation Error: Core 0 panic'ed (|ILLEGAL_INSTR_MSG|). Exception was unhandled.
|
|
|
|
For some of the system level checks (interrupt watchdog, cache access error), the message will be similar to
|
|
|
|
.. parsed-literal::
|
|
|
|
Guru Meditation Error: Core 0 panic'ed (|CACHE_ERR_MSG|). Exception was unhandled.
|
|
|
|
In all cases, the error cause will be printed in parentheses. See `Guru Meditation Errors`_ for a list of possible error causes.
|
|
|
|
Subsequent behavior of the panic handler can be set using :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC` configuration choice. The available options are:
|
|
|
|
- Print registers and reboot (``CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC_PRINT_REBOOT``) — default option.
|
|
|
|
This will print register values at the point of the exception, print the backtrace, and restart the chip.
|
|
|
|
- Print registers and halt (``CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC_PRINT_HALT``)
|
|
|
|
Similar to the above option, but halt instead of rebooting. External reset is required to restart the program.
|
|
|
|
- Silent reboot (``CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC_SILENT_REBOOT``)
|
|
|
|
Do not print registers or backtrace, restart the chip immediately.
|
|
|
|
- Invoke GDB Stub (``CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC_GDBSTUB``)
|
|
|
|
Start GDB server which can communicate with GDB over console UART port. This option will only provide read-only debugging or post-mortem debugging. See `GDB Stub`_ for more details.
|
|
|
|
The behavior of the panic handler is affected by three other configuration options.
|
|
|
|
- If :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_DEBUG_OCDAWARE` is enabled (which is the default), the panic handler will detect whether a JTAG debugger is connected. If it is, execution will be halted and control will be passed to the debugger. In this case, registers and backtrace are not dumped to the console, and GDBStub / Core Dump functions are not used.
|
|
|
|
- If the :doc:`Core Dump <core_dump>` feature is enabled, then the system state (task stacks and registers) will be dumped to either Flash or UART, for later analysis.
|
|
|
|
- If :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_PANIC_HANDLER_IRAM` is disabled (disabled by default), the panic handler code is placed in flash memory, not IRAM. This means that if ESP-IDF crashes while flash cache is disabled, the panic handler will automatically re-enable flash cache before running GDB Stub or Core Dump. This adds some minor risk, if the flash cache status is also corrupted during the crash.
|
|
|
|
If this option is enabled, the panic handler code (including required UART functions) is placed in IRAM, and hence will decrease the usable memory space in SRAM. But this may be necessary to debug some complex issues with crashes while flash cache is disabled (for example, when writing to SPI flash) or when flash cache is corrupted when an exception is triggered.
|
|
|
|
- If :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC_REBOOT_DELAY_SECONDS` is enabled (disabled by default) and set to a number higher than 0, the panic handler will delay the reboot for that amount of time in seconds. This can help if the tool used to monitor serial output does not provide a possibility to stop and examine the serial output. In that case, delaying the reboot will allow users to examine and debug the panic handler output (backtrace, etc.) for the duration of the delay. After the delay, the device will reboot. The reset reason is preserved.

Register Dump and Backtrace
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Unless the ``CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC_SILENT_REBOOT`` option is enabled, the panic handler prints some of the CPU registers, and the backtrace, to the console

The register values printed are the register values in the exception frame, i.e., values at the moment when the CPU exception or another fatal error has occurred.
|
|
|
|
A Register dump is not printed if the panic handler has been executed as a result of an ``abort()`` call.
|
|
|
|
.. only:: CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ARCH_XTENSA
|
|
|
|
In some cases, such as interrupt watchdog timeout, the panic handler may print additional CPU registers (EPC1-EPC4) and the registers/backtrace of the code running on the other CPU.
|
|
|
|
The backtrace line contains PC:SP pairs, where PC is the Program Counter and SP is Stack Pointer, for each stack frame of the current task. If a fatal error happens inside an ISR, the backtrace may include PC:SP pairs both from the task which was interrupted, and from the ISR.
|
|
|
|
If :doc:`IDF Monitor <tools/idf-monitor>` is used, Program Counter values will be converted to code locations (function name, file name, and line number), and the output will be annotated with additional lines:

Backtrace stopped: frame did not save the PC
|
|
|
|
While the backtrace above is very handy, it requires the user to use :doc:`IDF Monitor <tools/idf-monitor>`. Thus, in order to generate and print a backtrace while using another monitor program, it is possible to activate :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_USE_EH_FRAME` option from the menuconfig.
|
|
|
|
This option will let the compiler generate DWARF information for each function of the project. Then, when a CPU exception occurs, the panic handler will parse these data and determine the backtrace of the task that failed. The output looks like this:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
Backtrace: 0x42009e9a:0x3fc92120 0x42009ea6:0x3fc92120 0x42009ec2:0x3fc92130 0x42024620:0x3fc92150 0x40387d7c:0x3fc92160 0xfffffffe:0x3fc92170
|
|
|
|
These ``PC:SP`` pairs represent the PC (Program Counter) and SP (Stack Pointer) for each stack frame of the current task.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main benefit of the :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_USE_EH_FRAME` option is that the backtrace is generated by the board itself (without the need for :doc:`IDF Monitor <tools/idf-monitor>`). However, the option's drawback is that it results in an increase of the compiled binary's size (ranging from 20% to 100% increase in size). Furthermore, this option causes debug information to be included within the compiled binary. Therefore, users are strongly advised not to enable this option in mass/final production builds.
|
|
|
|
To find the location where a fatal error has happened, look at the lines which follow the "Backtrace" line. Fatal error location is the top line, and subsequent lines show the call stack.
|
|
|
|
.. _GDB-Stub:
|
|
|
|
GDB Stub
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
If the ``CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_PANIC_GDBSTUB`` option is enabled, the panic handler will not reset the chip when a fatal error happens. Instead, it will start a GDB remote protocol server, commonly referred to as GDB Stub. When this happens, a GDB instance running on the host computer can be instructed to connect to the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} UART port.
|
|
|
|
If :doc:`IDF Monitor <tools/idf-monitor>` is used, GDB is started automatically when a GDB Stub prompt is detected on the UART. The output looks like this::
|
|
|
|
Entering gdb stub now.

The GDB prompt can be used to inspect CPU registers, local and static variables, and arbitrary locations in memory. It is not possible to set breakpoints, change the PC, or continue execution. To reset the program, exit GDB and perform an external reset: Ctrl-T Ctrl-R in IDF Monitor, or using the external reset button on the development board.

|
The RTC watchdog is used in the startup code to keep track of execution time and it also helps to prevent a lock-up caused by an unstable power source. It is enabled by default (see :ref:`CONFIG_BOOTLOADER_WDT_ENABLE`). If the execution time is exceeded, the RTC watchdog will restart the system. In this case, the ROM bootloader will print a message with the ``RTC Watchdog Timeout`` reason for the reboot.

The RTC watchdog covers the execution time from the first stage bootloader (ROM bootloader) to application startup. It is initially set in the ROM bootloader, then configured in the bootloader with the :ref:`CONFIG_BOOTLOADER_WDT_TIME_MS` option (9000 ms by default). During the application initialization stage, it is reconfigured because the source of the slow clock may have changed, and finally disabled right before the ``app_main()`` call. There is an option :ref:`CONFIG_BOOTLOADER_WDT_DISABLE_IN_USER_CODE` which prevents the RTC watchdog from being disabled before ``app_main``. Instead, the RTC watchdog remains active and must be fed periodically in your application's code.

- FreeRTOS task function has returned. In FreeRTOS, if a task function needs to terminate, it should call :cpp:func:`vTaskDelete` and delete itself, instead of returning.
|
|
|
|
- Failure to read next instruction from SPI flash. This usually happens if:
|
|
|
|
- Application has reconfigured the SPI flash pins as some other function (GPIO, UART, etc.). Consult the Hardware Design Guidelines and the datasheet for the chip or module for details about the SPI flash pins.
|
|
|
|
- Some external device has accidentally been connected to the SPI flash pins, and has interfered with communication between {IDF_TARGET_NAME} and SPI flash.
|
|
|
|
- In C++ code, exiting from a non-void function without returning a value is considered to be an undefined behavior. When optimizations are enabled, the compiler will often omit the epilogue in such functions. This most often results in an |ILLEGAL_INSTR_MSG| exception. By default, ESP-IDF build system enables ``-Werror=return-type`` which means that missing return statements are treated as compile time errors. However if the application project disables compiler warnings, this issue might go undetected and the |ILLEGAL_INSTR_MSG| exception will occur at run time.

InstrFetchProhibited
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This CPU exception indicates that the CPU could not read an instruction because the address of the instruction does not belong to a valid region in instruction RAM or ROM.
|
|
|
|
Usually, this means an attempt to call a function pointer, which does not point to valid code. ``PC`` (Program Counter) register can be used as an indicator: it will be zero or will contain a garbage value (not ``0x4xxxxxxx``).
|
|
|
|
LoadProhibited, StoreProhibited
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
These CPU exceptions happen when an application attempts to read from or write to an invalid memory location. The address which has been written/read is found in the ``EXCVADDR`` register in the register dump. If this address is zero, it usually means that the application has attempted to dereference a NULL pointer. If this address is close to zero, it usually means that the application has attempted to access a member of a structure, but the pointer to the structure is NULL. If this address is something else (garbage value, not in ``0x3fxxxxxx`` - ``0x6xxxxxxx`` range), it likely means that the pointer used to access the data is either not initialized or has been corrupted.
|
|
|
|
IntegerDivideByZero
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Application has attempted to do an integer division by zero.
|
|
|
|
LoadStoreAlignment
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Application has attempted to read or write a memory location, and the address alignment does not match the load/store size. For example, a 32-bit read can only be done from a 4-byte aligned address, and a 16-bit write can only be done to a 2-byte aligned address.
|
|
|
|
LoadStoreError
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This exception may happen in the following cases:
|
|
|
|
- If the application has attempted to do an 8- or 16- bit read to, or write from, a memory region which only supports 32-bit reads/writes. For example, dereferencing a ``char*`` pointer to instruction memory (IRAM, IROM) will result in such an error.
|
|
|
|
- If the application has attempted to write to a read-only memory region, such as IROM or DROM.
|
|
|
|
Unhandled Debug Exception
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This CPU exception happens when the instruction ``BREAK`` is executed.
|
|
|
|
.. only:: CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ARCH_RISCV
|
|
|
|
Instruction Address Misaligned
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This CPU exception indicates that the address of the instruction to execute is not 2-byte aligned.
|
|
|
|
Instruction Access Fault, Load Access Fault, Store Access Fault
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This CPU exception happens when application attempts to execute, read from or write to an invalid memory location. The address which was written/read is found in ``MTVAL`` register in the register dump. If this address is zero, it usually means that application attempted to dereference a NULL pointer. If this address is close to zero, it usually means that application attempted to access member of a structure, but the pointer to the structure was NULL. If this address is something else (garbage value, not in ``0x3fxxxxxx`` - ``0x6xxxxxxx`` range), it likely means that the pointer used to access the data was either not initialized or was corrupted.
|
|
|
|
Breakpoint
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This CPU exception happens when the instruction ``EBREAK`` is executed. See also :ref:`FreeRTOS-End-Of-Stack-Watchpoint`.
|
|
|
|
Load Address Misaligned, Store Address Misaligned
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Application has attempted to read or write memory location, and address alignment did not match load/store size. For example, 32-bit load can only be done from 4-byte aligned address, and 16-bit load can only be done from a 2-byte aligned address.
|
|
|
|
Interrupt Watchdog Timeout on CPU0/CPU1
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Indicates that an interrupt watchdog timeout has occurred. See :doc:`Watchdogs <../api-reference/system/wdts>` for more information.
|
|
|
|
|CACHE_ERR_MSG|
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
In some situations, ESP-IDF will temporarily disable access to external SPI Flash and SPI RAM via caches. For example, this happens when spi_flash APIs are used to read/write/erase/mmap regions of SPI Flash. In these situations, tasks are suspended, and interrupt handlers not registered with ``ESP_INTR_FLAG_IRAM`` are disabled. Make sure that any interrupt handlers registered with this flag have all the code and data in IRAM/DRAM. Refer to the :ref:`SPI flash API documentation <iram-safe-interrupt-handlers>` for more details.

|
|
|
.. only:: SOC_MEMPROT_SUPPORTED
|
|
|
|
Memory Protection Fault
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
{IDF_TARGET_NAME} Permission Control feature is used in ESP-IDF to prevent the following types of memory access:
|
|
|
|
* writing to instruction RAM after the program is loaded
|
|
* executing code from data RAM (areas used for heap and static .data and .bss)
|
|
|
|
Such operations are not necessary for most programs. Prohibiting such operations typically makes software vulnerabilities harder to exploit. Applications which rely on dynamic loading or self-modifying code may disable this protection using :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_MEMPROT_FEATURE` Kconfig option.
|
|
|
|
When the fault occurs, the panic handler reports the address of the fault and the type of memory access that caused it.

|
Brownout
|
|
^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
{IDF_TARGET_NAME} has a built-in brownout detector, which is enabled by default. The brownout detector can trigger a system reset if the supply voltage goes below a safe level. The brownout detector can be configured using :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_BROWNOUT_DET` and :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_BROWNOUT_DET_LVL_SEL` options.
|
|
|
|
When the brownout detector triggers, the following message is printed::
|
|
|
|
Brownout detector was triggered
|
|
|
|
The chip is reset after the message is printed.
|
|
|
|
Note that if the supply voltage is dropping at a fast rate, only part of the message may be seen on the console.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Corrupt Heap
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
ESP-IDF's heap implementation contains a number of run-time checks of the heap structure. Additional checks ("Heap Poisoning") can be enabled in menuconfig. If one of the checks fails, a message similar to the following will be printed::
|
|
|
|
CORRUPT HEAP: Bad tail at 0x3ffe270a. Expected 0xbaad5678 got 0xbaac5678
|
|

.. only:: SOC_ASSIST_DEBUG_SUPPORTED

Hardware Stack Guard
|
|
""""""""""""""""""""
|
|
|
|
{IDF_TARGET_NAME} has an integrated assist-debug module that can watch the SP register to ensure that it is within the bounds of allocated stack memory. The assist-debug module needs to set new stack bounds on every interrupt handling and FreeRTOS context switch. This can have a small impact on performance.
|
|
|
|
Here are some additional details about the assist-debug module:
|
|
|
|
- Implemented in hardware
|
|
- Watches Stack Pointer register value
|
|
- Requires no additional CPU time or memory while watching stack bounds
|
|
|
|
When the assist-debug module detects a stack overflow, the panic handler will run and display a message that resembles the following:
|
|
|
|
.. parsed-literal::
|
|
|
|
Guru Meditation Error: Core 0 panic'ed (Stack protection fault).
|
|
|
|
Hardware stack guard can be disabled using :ref:`CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_HW_STACK_GUARD` options.
|
|
|
|
.. _FreeRTOS-End-Of-Stack-Watchpoint:
|
|
|
|
FreeRTOS End of Stack Watchpoint
|
|
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
|
|
|
|
ESP-IDF provides a custom FreeRTOS stack overflow detecting mechanism based on watchpoints. Every time FreeRTOS switches task context, one of the watchpoints is set to watch the last 32 bytes of stack.
|
|
|
|
Generally, this may cause the watchpoint to be triggered up to 28 bytes earlier than expected. The value 32 is chosen because it is larger than the stack canary size in FreeRTOS (20 bytes). Adopting this approach ensures that the watchpoint triggers before the stack canary is corrupted, not after.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
Not every stack overflow is guaranteed to trigger the watchpoint. It is possible that the task writes to memory beyond the stack canary location, in which case the watchpoint will not be triggered.
|
|
|
|
If watchpoint triggers, the message will be similar to:
|
|
|
|
.. only:: CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ARCH_XTENSA
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

Undefined Behavior Sanitizer (UBSAN) Checks
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Undefined behavior sanitizer (UBSAN) is a compiler feature which adds run-time checks for potentially incorrect operations, such as:
|
|
|
|
- overflows (multiplication overflow, signed integer overflow)
|
|
- shift base or exponent errors (e.g., shift by more than 32 bits)
|
|
- integer conversion errors
|
|
|
|
See `GCC documentation <https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Instrumentation-Options.html>`_ of ``-fsanitize=undefined`` option for the complete list of supported checks.
|
|
|
|
Enabling UBSAN
|
|
""""""""""""""
|
|
|
|
UBSAN is disabled by default. It can be enabled at file, component, or project level by adding the ``-fsanitize=undefined`` compiler option in the build system.
|
|
|
|
When enabling UBSAN for code which uses the SOC hardware register header files (``soc/xxx_reg.h``), it is recommended to disable shift-base sanitizer using ``-fno-sanitize=shift-base`` option. This is due to the fact that ESP-IDF register header files currently contain patterns which cause false positives for this specific sanitizer option.
|
|
|
|
To enable UBSAN at project level, add the following code at the end of the project's ``CMakeLists.txt`` file::
|
|
|
|
idf_build_set_property(COMPILE_OPTIONS "-fsanitize=undefined" "-fno-sanitize=shift-base" APPEND)
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, pass these options through the ``EXTRA_CFLAGS`` and ``EXTRA_CXXFLAGS`` environment variables.
|
|
|
|
Enabling UBSAN results in significant increase of code and data size. Most applications, except for the trivial ones, will not fit into the available RAM of the microcontroller when UBSAN is enabled for the whole application. Therefore it is recommended that UBSAN is instead enabled for specific components under test.
|
|
|
|
To enable UBSAN for a specific component (``component_name``) from the project's ``CMakeLists.txt`` file, add the following code at the end of the file::
|
|
|
|
idf_component_get_property(lib component_name COMPONENT_LIB)
|
|
target_compile_options(${lib} PRIVATE "-fsanitize=undefined" "-fno-sanitize=shift-base")
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
See the build system documentation for more information about :ref:`build properties <cmake-build-properties>` and :ref:`component properties <cmake-component-properties>`.
|
|
|
|
To enable UBSAN for a specific component (``component_name``) from ``CMakeLists.txt`` of the same component, add the following at the end of the file::
|
|
|
|
target_compile_options(${COMPONENT_LIB} PRIVATE "-fsanitize=undefined" "-fno-sanitize=shift-base")
|
|
|
|
UBSAN Output
|
|
""""""""""""
|
|
|
|
When UBSAN detects an error, a message and the backtrace are printed, for example::
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Backtrace:0x4008b383:0x3ffcd8b0 0x4008c791:0x3ffcd8d0 0x4008c587:0x3ffcd8f0 0x4008c6be:0x3ffcd950 0x400db74f:0x3ffcd970 0x400db99c:0x3ffcd9a0
|
