FreeRTOSIP-TCP Connection issue

Posted by joehinkle on August 9, 2016

I've been using UDP for some time now.

Attempting to use TCP with this stack.

In another post, I had an issue with FreeRTOSselect not working with a Listen socker because a FreeRTOSConfig setting was in conflict with the FreeRTOSselect's capability.

I'm wondering if the issue that follows is also associated with conflicting CONFIG settings.

My TCP usage is a small web server. Chrome is attempting to connect.

FreeRTOSIP identifies the incoming connection and my code issues FreeRTOS_accept.

Chrome does not like the connections and closes all of the connections without ever attempting to send data to the connection.

I have a WireShark listing showing MY side of the communication -- notice all of the re-tries.

Following the WireShark listing are the stack's debug messages that are generated during the process.

Chrome is 192.1689.1.37 FreeRTOSIP is 192.168.1.12

Have you seen this issue before?

Are there any config settings that may be causing the issue.

FreeRTOSIP-TCP Connection issue

Posted by heinbali01 on August 9, 2016

You're too quick.

I'm just ready testing your earlier source code and now you're posting +TCP logging.

Please find attached a simple TCP server that uses Select(). I tested it on real hardware.

What hardware platform are you using now, still a NXP K64?

About the logging: did you also have a PCAP file from Wireshark, not only a print-screen?

Chrome does not like the connections

It seems to me that Chrome doesn't receive any response at all, for some reason there is a one-way traffic. Strange though that Wireshark doesn see +TCP responses (SYN+ACK)

FreeRTOSIP-TCP Connection issue

Yes I have a pcap file.


FreeRTOSIP-TCP Connection issue

Posted by joehinkle on August 9, 2016

I resolved the other issue We spoke about -- see that post.

In your example server above -- what does function clearWDT (); do?

It is missing from the code?

Joe


FreeRTOSIP-TCP Connection issue

Posted by joehinkle on August 9, 2016

I've implemented you server above.

Same connection issue.

I have include pcap files for execution on Chrome and IE.

Any IP config setting that could be related?

I wrote the EMAC - driver. Any potential issue I caused there? The driver was running in another port -- no issue.

Here is a debug dump from YOUR web server. If you look at the pcap file, I still see a lot of re-transmissions.

Do you see any behavior difference in my server and yours?

The two Test_WS files are YOUR web server.

Web Browser is 192.168.1.37 FreeRTOSIP is 192.168.1.12

Thanks.

Joe

Missed your question.

Yes -- still same NXP Kinetis K64 (Use to be FreeScale)

Hein:

It just occurred to me, you might think this is about the Listening / Select issue I post about over the weekend.

It's NOT. I resolved that issue -- I believe you folks have a CONFIG option issue that needs looking into.

This is a Connection issue AFTER the listening has accepted the connection.

Hi Joe,

clearWDT ()

Sorry I left that in, it's my Watch Dog Timer, every task must call it regularly.

Your last logging shows the same: the client doesn't seem to receive any TCP packets.

Yes I have a pcap file.

I still don't the PCAP file attached?

Normally when users are developing a EMAC / +TCP driver, they get in touch with us directly. This shortens the development time and it decreases frustrations. I already invited you to contact us :-) You can reach me as h point tibosch at freertos point org.

There is already a port for K63F, but I'm not sure if that would help you?

I've just posted a working example of the use of FreeRTOS_select() in this thread. I tested it with :

#define ipconfigTCP_HANG_PROTECTION        1

Have you tried it already?

There is no known issue (yet) with the hang protection. It is normally used along with ipconfigTCP_KEEP_ALIVE, which causes ALIVE messages to be exchanged.

Have you already tried the example HTTP server?

~~~~ FreeRTOS-Plus-TCPprotocolsHTTPFreeRTOSHTTPserver.c ~~~~

it also uses FreeRTOS_select() and I it is often used along with ipconfigTCP_HANG_PROTECTION.

Regards, Hein

Our posts keep on crossing each other...

I'll attach a PCAP of the communication that I just saw. It is sending three times "Hello world" to the server and disconnect.

The logging shows this:

~~~~ 70.379 [10]: Select returns 1 70.380 [10]: FreeRTOS_accept returns d0233ec8 71.854 [10]: Select returns 1 72.894 [10]: Select returns 1 73.917 [10]: Select returns 1 75.015 [10]: Select returns 4 75.015 [10]: Connection lost, socket will be closed. ~~~~

FreeRTOSIP-TCP Connection issue

Posted by joehinkle on August 10, 2016

Update:

Issue is resolved.

Stack GREAT!!. User had issue.

I was too knowledable about stack and driver design that I read more into the porting requirements than what +TCP wanted.

I am using bufferallocation1 which uses statically defined network buffers.

When I designed the driver's transmit function I assumed the return indicated if the networkbuffer was actually transmitted.

If I did not have an empty xmit buffer slot, I returned FALSE back to the stack and DID NOT release the buffer. The stack thought the buffer was released and reused it, which happened to be a TCP reply to a client with the wrong port number. My client did NOT receive a proper connection SYN+ACK to the required port .. so it bailed.

Hein was extreemly helpful in resolving the issue which was with my transmit driver. I now spin until the message can be transmitted and always release EVERY buffer ... transmitted or not.

Great help from Hein at FreeRTOS.

Joe
