I am using branch 1.4.1 of lwip. I have a thread that connects to a remote
server and writes data to it using lwip_write(). Sometimes this hangs
indefinitely. Looks like its waiting on the op->completed semaphore which
never gets signaled.
I tried using the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option, but that just causes panics in
my system. So I tried another approach where I use a watchdog that detects
this hang and calls lwip_close(). But it looks like LWIP doesn't like it. I
hit this assert
netconn_free(struct netconn *conn)
{
LWIP_ASSERT("PCB must be deallocated outside this function", conn->pcb.tcp
== NULL);
...
}
On debugging further it looks like we end up getting the ERR_INPROGRESS in
do_delconn().
do_delconn(struct api_msg_msg *msg)
{
/* @todo TCP: abort running write/connect? */
if ((msg->conn->state != NETCONN_NONE) &&
(msg->conn->state != NETCONN_LISTEN) &&
(msg->conn->state != NETCONN_CONNECT)) {
/* this only happens for TCP netconns */
LWIP_ASSERT("msg->conn->type == NETCONN_TCP", msg->conn->type ==
NETCONN_TCP);
km_printf("err in progress\n");
msg->err = ERR_INPROGRESS;
...
}
so we never end up cleanup up the pcbs which leads to this assert.
Is there a way around this?
