Re: [lwip-users] FreeRTOS + Lwip, transmit gets BLOCKED

[Janicek, Marek]

Hi Simon,

 

tcp_nagle_disable() helped.  Now there is long delay only when there are also  incoming packets while transmitting.

This happens only when lwip_netconn_do_writemore() ends with error. That means there is not enough memory.

So I will also check on this.

 

Thanks a lot.

Hi Marek

 

There is an automatic back-off mechanism designed to stop nodes flooding the network with small TCP messages called Nagle algorithm. Check if you are being blocked by that. You can turn it off - i think on a per connection basis.

 

There is also a similar thread that I found when i was looking at a similar problem http://lwip.100.n7.nabble.com/lwIP-hangs-on-transfers-with-many-short-packets-td11044.html

Hello,
 
I have STM32F407 running FreeRTOS + Lwip (netconn). I have several tasks.
Only one Task1 is transmitting continously small packets (85 bytes) every 5
miliseconds on ethernet.
Transmitting is randomly paused for a long time (cca 1-2 sec) then it is
resumed.
 
Task1 in function lwip_netconn_do_write() takes the semaphore by
sys_arch_sem_wait(LWIP_API_MSG_SEM(msg), 0) and Task1 gets BLOCKED. It
remains blocked for cca 1-2 seconds.
When tcpip_thread in function lwip_netconn_do_writemore() gives semaphore by
sys_sem_signal(op_completed_sem) then Task1 gets finally READY.
 
Please do you have idea why this is happening for such a long time?
 
Thanks
Marek
