Dear Ernst,
In my application the link never goes down, only the slaves disappear
every 24 hours. (Working counter changed to 0).
It is a specific problem because I have other ethercat systems that run
without a hiccup during thousands of hours.
For the moment I have not invest a lot of time on this issue.
If I found a solution, I will post it on the mailing list.
regards,

Hello Sebastien,
thank you for the feedback. There are two kinds of errors… The one where the
link goes down has occurred 3 times with approx 16 days delay in between.
Unfortunately its not exactly 15.9 days in between - that would be 2**32
packets. I will wait for another error (should come in 14 days) and then change
the test application and increase cycle rate to 5kHz.
Is the link going down in your application too?
Best regards,
Ernst

Dear Johansen,
According to your log, the duration between two error events is variable,
between 6 and 11 days, therefore it is probably not an integer overflow but
something else.
To be sure, change the frequency of the cycle to check if the error frequency
depends on it.
Note: I have the same problem with a very similar configuration (except that I
have an Intel PC instead of a PowerPC). Unfortunately, I have not found a
solution yet.

Hello together,
I'm doing a long-term test of:
root@MTEST-PC-IFC12:~# ethercat version
IgH EtherCAT master 1.5.2 2eff7c993a63
Basically the application is working perfectly except for error events
that takes place approx every 16 days... As my final application is
running 24/7 this is a problem.
I will continue testing for the months to come, but I have the feeling
that some kind of "overflow" is happening.
Does anybody have an explanation for what the bus is doing?
My application is running on a PowerPC with GNU/Linux PREEMPT_RT.
The application is in user space and is triggered cyclically at 3125Hz.
On the bus there is a small number of Beckhof devices:

Below is the /var/log/syslog for the last month. There were a total of 5
error events during this period of time.
