Parallel Out I2S with DMA Interrupts

Postby willz1200 » Mon Jan 21, 2019 1:04 pm

Hello,

I'm using the I2S driver to output in 16-bit parallel mode with two buffer to allow nonstop transmission, my aim is to use the I2S_OUT_DONE_INT_RAW interrupt to call a function which updates the buffer that has just been output via DMA, meanwhile the second buffer will be output via dma, until the done interrupt is called allowing me to refill the buffer and so on.

I'm having trouble getting my interrupt setup correctly the program will run but my interrupt is never called, I have verified that the parallel I2S is working with a logic analyzer.

Please can you take a look at the code I'm using to setup the interrupt and spot any issues with it?

Code: Select all

static intr_handle_t my_interrupt_handle;

static void IRAM_ATTR dmaInt(void* arg) {
    printf("Buffer Transferred");
    //Code to fill buffer that was just transferred. 
}

void app_main()
{
    //Other code to setup the I2S
    
    I2S1.int_clr.val = I2S1.int_raw.val;
    I2S1.int_ena.val = 0;
    I2S1.int_ena.out_done = 1;   //Maybe I2S_OUT_DONE_INT_RAW
    
    //Setup I2S DMA Interrupt
    esp_err_t err = esp_intr_alloc(
        ETS_I2S1_INTR_SOURCE,
        ESP_INTR_FLAG_INTRDISABLED | ESP_INTR_FLAG_LEVEL1 | ESP_INTR_FLAG_IRAM,
        &dmaInt,
        NULL,
        &my_interrupt_handle
    );

    //Enable the Interrupt
    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_intr_enable(my_interrupt_handle));
}

No idea why that interrupt is not firing (maybe something to do with your DMA descriptors?) but the canonical way to do this is to create a circular DMA buffer and use the EOF interrupt, which fires as soon as a DMA link with the EOF bit set has been sent. The code is a bit ugly, but perhaps this helps.

Hi,
Can you provide you DMA link, maybe your DMA linked list is a circular list,

You can use i2s_out_eof interrupt, be sure that eof field in the DMA descriptor is set to 1.

I'm looking over the printer cartridge driver that Sprite_tm has written, its a great starting point thanks! Have you released the code for the HTML5 web interface to modify the signals in real time? I just saw it on your have a Hackaday video :D

Heres what I've got so far (I'll change it now I've seen the printer driver :lol: ):

Code: Select all

#define FRAME_SIZE 256
static intr_handle_t my_interrupt_handle;

static void IRAM_ATTR dmaInt(void* arg) {
  gpio_set_level(32, 1); //Should show a pulse on the logic analyzer when an interrupt occurs
  gpio_set_level(32, 0);
}

void app_main()
{
    OutputBuffer[0]=heap_caps_malloc(FRAME_SIZE*2, MALLOC_CAP_DMA);
    memset(OutputBuffer[0], 0, FRAME_SIZE*2);
    assert(OutputBuffer[0] && "Can't allocate memory");

    OutputBuffer[1]=heap_caps_malloc(FRAME_SIZE*2, MALLOC_CAP_DMA);
    memset(OutputBuffer[1], 0, FRAME_SIZE*2);
    assert(OutputBuffer[1] && "Can't allocate memory");

    i2s_parallel_buffer_desc_t bufdesc[2];
    i2s_parallel_config_t cfg={
        .gpio_bus={2, 4, 5, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 19, 21, 22, 23, 25, 26},
        .gpio_clk=27,
        .bits=I2S_PARALLEL_BITS_16,
        .clkspeed_hz=8*1000*1000,
        .bufa=&bufdesc[0],
        .bufb=&bufdesc[1],
    };

    bufdesc[0].memory = OutputBuffer[0];
    bufdesc[0].size = FRAME_SIZE*2;

    bufdesc[1].memory = OutputBuffer[1]; 
    bufdesc[1].size = FRAME_SIZE*2;
    
     gpio_set_direction(32, GPIO_MODE_OUTPUT);
    
    i2s_parallel_setup(&I2S1, &cfg);
    
    I2S1.int_clr.val = I2S1.int_raw.val;
    I2S1.int_ena.val = 0;
    I2S1.int_ena.out_done = 1;   //Maybe I2S_OUT_DONE_INT_RAW
    
    //Setup I2S DMA Interrupt
    esp_err_t err = esp_intr_alloc(
        ETS_I2S1_INTR_SOURCE,
        ESP_INTR_FLAG_INTRDISABLED | ESP_INTR_FLAG_LEVEL1 | ESP_INTR_FLAG_IRAM,
        &dmaInt,
        NULL,
        &my_interrupt_handle
    );

    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_intr_enable(my_interrupt_handle));  //Enable the Interrupt
    
    //Bytes are swapped here because ESP32 is little endian and DMA seems to clock MSB of a word out first...?
    uint16_t *p=OutputBuffer[0];
    p[1]=0B0000000000000001; //Mark start of buffer 1
    p[FRAME_SIZE-2]=0B0000000000000010; //Mark end of butter 1
    
    uint16_t *pp=OutputBuffer[1];
    pp[1]=0B000000000000100; //Mark start of buffer 2
    pp[FRAME_SIZE-2]=0B000000000001000; //Mark end of buffer 2
    
    while (1){
      //main loop
    }
}
part of i2s_parallel.c:

Code: Select all

static void fill_dma_desc(volatile lldesc_t *dmadesc, i2s_parallel_buffer_desc_t *bufdesc) {
    int n=0;
    
    int len=bufdesc->size;
    uint8_t *data=(uint8_t*)bufdesc->memory;
    while(len) {
        int dmalen=len;
        if (dmalen>DMA_MAX) dmalen=DMA_MAX;
        dmadesc[n].size=dmalen;
        dmadesc[n].length=dmalen;
        dmadesc[n].buf=data;
        dmadesc[n].eof=0;
        dmadesc[n].sosf=0;
        dmadesc[n].owner=1;
        dmadesc[n].qe.stqe_next=(lldesc_t*)&dmadesc[n+1];
        dmadesc[n].offset=0;
        len-=dmalen;
        data+=dmalen;
        n++;
    }

    dmadesc[n-1].qe.stqe_next=(lldesc_t*)&dmadesc[0];
    printf("fill_dma_desc: filled %d descriptors\n", n);
}

I've managed to find your waveform generator such a neat little tool thanks! How did you go about outputting the hex data on the ESP32 during testing?

I used a webserver to serve those files, including a cgi to receive the hex values from the browser. Code is in the git repo (need to git clone this url for it to work) if you want to take a look, but be warned, I never really cleaned up that code.

I'm quite new to the esp-idf and having trouble getting the "check_waveform" code to run correctly. I cloned it with

Code: Select all

git clone --recurse-submodules -j8 http://git.spritesserver.nl/printcart.git/
then compiled with make flash, but an error came up about a line containing only

Code: Select all

>>>>>>HEAD
in the libesphttpd flash component. I removed it because it didn't seem to make sense and it compiled fine, but the esp32 is now repeatedly crashing. Are there any other commands that need to be ran? Maybe to flash the file system over?

Also I'm using an ESP32-PICO-D4

Thanks,
Will

Heh, as I said, it's not the cleanest repo ever... I may have a bad ref to an uncommitted esphttpd in there. Will check. Do you have a backtrace of what and how it crashed?

Yes it looks like a bad version of libesphttpd is being referenced.
