ESP32 - Multi Tasking with while in a task


I try to build a chrono laser with two ESP32 and two LDR. I have two ESP32:

  • One do a ACCESS Point with a LDR
  • Second connect to the AP, have the algorithm of the laser chrono and a second LDR

In the second one, i try also to have a WebServer so i can connect with my phone and restart the chrono.

I try to do multitasking but everytime my ESP32 restart :

18:10:42.625 -> E (5775) task_wdt: Task watchdog got triggered. The following tasks did not reset the watchdog in time:
18:10:42.672 -> E (5775) task_wdt:  - IDLE0 (CPU 0)
18:10:42.672 -> E (5775) task_wdt: Tasks currently running:
18:10:42.672 -> E (5775) task_wdt: CPU 0: Task1
18:10:42.672 -> E (5775) task_wdt: CPU 1: Task2
18:10:42.672 -> E (5775) task_wdt: Aborting.
18:10:42.672 -> abort() was called at PC 0x400d9033 on core 0

Do you have any suggestion to optimize my code or a solution to not have the problem anymore ?


Solution

  • I try a method i found on the web, and it's works. Add libraries :

    #include "soc/timer_group_struct.h"
    #include "soc/timer_group_reg.h"
    

    Create a method:

      void feedthedog () {
          TIMERG0.wdt_wprotect = TIMG_WDT_WKEY_VALUE;
          TIMERG0.wdt_feed = 1;
          TIMERG0.wdt_wprotect = 0;
        }
    

    Add execution of the method in every while

    while (departStatus == OFF) {
          feedthedog();
          departStatus = digitalRead(departReceiver);
        }
    

    I can wait, refresh page on the webserver, i don't get error :

    19:38:40.321 -> Task1 running on core 0
    19:38:40.321 -> ALGO START
    19:39:20.937 -> Borne de début prête
    19:39:39.093 -> Borne de fin prête
    19:39:39.093 -> En attente du courreur
    19:39:39.140 -> Courreur en place
    19:39:51.840 -> Chrono lanc&eacute;
    19:39:58.804 -> Courru en
    19:39:58.804 -> 6.99
    19:39:58.804 -> Tâche fini
