Greetings.

I'm trying to combine the use of a GPIO interrupt with the use of the Power Management mode that ESP-IDF provides. So, what I did was to enable the PM via the menuconfig, configure and enable the light sleep mode with the "esp_pm_configure()" function, configure a GPIO interrupt of "GPIO_INTR_LOW_LEVEL" type (in this case, in GPIO 18), and enable a GPIO wakeup with "gpio_wakeup_enable()".

In addition, when configuring the GPIO interrupt, I also set an IRQ handler function. In that handler, I check the state of the mentioned GPIO, and if it's LOW, I change both the interrupt and wakeup type to "GPIO_INTR_HIGH_LEVEL". Additionally, when the state of the GPIO is LOW, I send a Task Notify to a task which, for the moment, just prints a message to the console.

If I do all of the above mentioned, and if the state of the GPIO 18 pin is the same as the level configured in the interrupt and wakeup type (LOW level in this case) at the time that the program starts, it crashes.

I set the following "menuconfig" options, regarding the Power Management functionality:

-FreeRTOS:
+Tickless Idle Support

-PM:
+Support for power management
+Enable dynamic frequency scaling (DFS) at startup

The code is the following:

Any idea what could be wrong?

Thank you all in advance.

Looks like the GPIO ISR keeps triggering for some reason, causing an interrupt timeout... Just to check: if you disable the automatic light sleep functions, does it still crash in this way? Also, can you try moving the gpio_config line to after the gpio_isr_handler_add one?

Greetings Sprite. Thanks for your answer.

1)

if you disable the automatic light sleep functions, does it still crash in this way?

Yes, it seems that is not a problem of the PM or sleep functionalities.

2)

Also, can you try moving the gpio_config line to after the gpio_isr_handler_add one?

So, I tried this approch, and ineed, it seems to stop the crashing issue.

                break;
            case ESP_SLEEP_WAKEUP_UART:
                wakeup_reason = "uart";
                break;
            default:
                wakeup_reason = "other";
                break;
        }

        ESP_LOGW(TAG, "WAKEUP REASON: %s", wakeup_reason);
    }

}

But I don't understand what the problem is. Maybe a problem with the "gpio_isr_handler_add()" function?

Also, in this post that I created with the same topic in GitHub:

https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/13444

Someone replied to me that the "gpio_set_intr_type()" function is not supposed to be used in a IRQ handler. Is this true?
