I cannot figure out why I am getting an Assert in pbuf.c at line 747:

I know the obvious answer, in the p->ref cannot be 0.

The problem is that I cannot tell what would cause p->ref to be 0.

And this is occurring in a while loop that depends on p != NULL.

I am using the LWIP that comes from CubeMX for STM32H7.

LWIP version 2.0.3.

Until someone with better information responds, let me venture a guess for you:

I think that ASSERT implies the pbuf has been dereferenced (freed) more than it has been referenced.  Check that you're not freeing the pbuf more than once.
