Hi all, There is crash handling in mynewt that can result in reboot, registers dump to console, loop waiting for debugger or core dump save to flash.
In case register dump console_blocking_mode() is called that will result in console begin handled with minimal functionality. Unfortunately right now other parts of system are not aware of system failure. When core dump flash area is placed in external flash problems start. SPIFLASH driver is not aware of crash condition and it uses OS based waits for timeouts which may not work at that time. It may also use SPI bus driver that on its own may use mutexes and semaphores. g_os_started could be switched back to 0 and checked in crash aware drivers or maybe some other form of crash awareness could be added. I'm curious about others opinion before doing it my way. br Jerzy
