ESP32 - Variables after Deep Sleep

Postby sage1234 » Tue Sep 24, 2024 4:33 am

Hello all,

I'm new and playing around with deep sleep on an ESP32-S3. The first time I run my code, everything goes as planned. After the device sleeps, however, I never get to the i = 0 condition so the device will no longer print "Just woke up!"

Does anyone know why this may be? Thank you!

Code: Select all

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include "freertos/FreeRTOS.h"
#include "freertos/task.h"
#include "esp_sleep.h"
#include "esp_timer.h"
#include "esp_log.h"


void awake_operations(void)
{
    static int i = 0;
    while (i <= 10) {
        if (i == 0) {
            printf("Just woke up!\n");
        }
        else if (i == 1) {
            printf("I've been awake for %i second.\n", i);
        }
        else if (i > 1) {
            printf("I've been awake for %i seconds.\n", i);
        }
        vTaskDelay(1000 / portTICK_PERIOD_MS);
        i++;
    }
}

void deep_sleep(void)
{
    printf("Going to deep-sleep for 5 seconds.\n");
    // vTaskDelay(100 / portTICK_PERIOD_MS);
    
    // Configure deep-sleep wake up timer for 5 seconds.
    uint64_t sleeptime = 5000000;
    esp_sleep_enable_timer_wakeup(sleeptime);

    // Go to deep sleep.
    esp_deep_sleep_start();

}

void app_main(void)
{
    awake_operations();
    deep_sleep();
}

Waking up from deep sleep is like the entire chip being reset, with the exception that the RTC subdomain still is alive. In practice, this means you can distinguish the deep sleep wakeup by looking at the reset reason, and the RTC memory is still intact. I think you want to store 'i' in RTC memory, you do that with 'RTC_DATA_ATTR static int i=0;'

Do you receive any serial output after esp_deep_sleep_start() is called for the first time?
