Debugging TG1WDT_SYS_RESET

[sumesh]

Does the 0x8 (TG1WDT_SYS_RESET) , boot: 0x13( SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)

indicates a specific type of event that transpired and it caused the reboot?

I am facing the same issue.

Literally what it says somewhat below: the watchdog timer reset the CPU. Given where your program stops executing: are you sure your hardware has a good enough power supply?

I will continue on this thread to discuss my TG1WDT_SYS_RESET issue given that someone has joined with the same problem.

I have now moved on from using Mongoose OS and using ESP-ID as my layer.

When happens / Observation:

I will leave the system on overnight (with a console open showing logs from ESP32 Things Board) and will find a reset.

Tasks running:

1. A LED blink loop
2. xSemaphoreTake waiting with max delay (nothing will feed the semaphore overnight)

Also, event loop to reconnect WiFi

My understanding so far:

Reading through the other forum posts regarding this reset my understanding is that it is Interrupt watchdog (Timer Group 1)

"The interrupt watchdog makes sure the FreeRTOS task switching interrupt isn’t blocked for a long time"

As mentioned in:
https://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... /wdts.html

Hence I mentioned the tasks.

What I have done:

I have now enabled GBD stub on the panic handler.

Now let's see what happens ....

@ESP_Sprite: Given that my understanding is the reset is by Interrupt watchdog, I am curious why you suggested looking at power.

I've split this discussion to a new thread to make it easier to find.

What version of ESP-IDF are you each using? For WiFi stack, a bug causing interrupt WDT resets was recently fixed.

If you have any sample code you can please post, this may help narrow it down.

@mobhuyan: I'm saying it because from experience, a bad power supply can lead to lots of unexpected weirdnesses in the startup procedure (where sumesh's problem was) and is very easy to check (just use a different USB cable and a powered hub, or an external power supply or something). It stops people from chasing a red herring later.

$ git describe

Does that mean I have the Wifi fixes you are referring to?

Hi, I'm sorry, did you manage to solve the TG1WDT_SYS_RESET problem?
Is it possible to guide me?

I had this issue, and in my case was that I was setting GPIO 8 as a Digital Input.
