Re: [lwip-users] Bootloader to Application + lwip crash

[nrichard]

Yes, by itself the application works perfectly fine.  The only thing I change
for it to run by itself or after the bootloader is the start flash address
being x00430000 instead of x00400000.  I also have a  countdown timer (in
the bootloader) on startupt.  If not interrupted by a keyboard press, a few
seconds later it goes straight to the application, no initialization of lwip
until after the countdown or it hits the application.

Yes, I have a binary execute function (provided by Atmel) that disables
interrupts, moves the vector table, re-enables interrupts again, then loads
at the address I chose.

I'm working with a Sam4e Xplained Pro. As for switching between USER and SVC
mode, I have not seen these before. After looking up what they are, I would
assume I am always in USER mode except for when the vector table moves.

I'll check interrupts again.  Enabling the lwip printf debug code makes it
work but it's very laggy.  Without it, it does not work.  It sounds like
something is not getting interrupted to me and is crashing instead.
