voxl-px4 service pipeline uORB failure

Alex Kushleyev

@jacob-yaacubov , can you please stop and disable voxl-px4 service:

systemctl stop voxl-px4
systemctl disable voxl-px4

then reboot voxl2, and start px4 manually in foreground:

voxl-px4 -d

Then save the output (from the terminal) into a text file and share with us?

Alex

@Alex-Kushleyev It looks like I am having the same issue as Jacob. We've added a brand new Voxl2 to our drone, this one is running on SDK 1.1.3 and we cannot get it to connect to PX4. Our prior build used Voxl2s with SDK 1.1.2 and worked fine for us, so we tried downgrading the SDK but that did not work either.

We re-updated the SDK to 1.1.3 and I stopped and disabled voxl-px4 service and rebooted the Voxl2 and started px4 manually. Want me to share a text file with the output?

@swickliff If you believe that the file system is corrupted you can reflash the latest SDK release using the -w arg, ./install.sh -w

This will wipe all partitions, ensuring your board is in a factory state

Alex Kushleyev

@swickliff , please share the output of px4 starting manually and also try to do a full wipe as Tom suggested and see if that helps. Thanks!

@Alex-Kushleyev

Alex, picking up this thread where swickliff left off. We tried a full partion wipe and are still having issues. Attached to this post is a .txt file with the entire PX4 startup output from command to crash.

Alex Kushleyev

@Jeremy-Frederick , can you please disable gps driver and try again? Also, a different test, unplug gps receiver (while gps driver is still enabled) if you have one.

Finally, please confirm which SDK version you are using. Thanks!

Jeremy Frederick

@Alex-Kushleyev Circling back to this as bandwidth opens up again, the board shipped with 1.1.3 but we downgraded to 1.1.2 for consistency across our fleet. After disabling the GPS driver, here is the read out. Once it begins to repeat the standard error event 2, it continues to do so until commanded to cancel.

@Jeremy-Frederick More Info: I've upgraded to SDK 1.2 and am having the same issue. It seems like the mavlink pipe is having trouble connecting as well, whenever I attempt to read the onboard mavlink messages, with voxl-inspect-mavlink, it indefinitely waits for the pipe to connect.

Eric Katzfey

@Jeremy-Frederick It looks like the SLPI DSP is crashing. Can you look at the dmesg log? It probably indicates that the SLPI DSP has crashed.

Eric Katzfey

@Jeremy-Frederick Can you also try setting POWER_MANAGER to NONE in /etc/modalai/voxl-px4.conf and see if that changes anything?

Jeremy Frederick

@Eric-Katzfey That seems to have solved the issue, now were able to establish a connection to QGC. Any idea why that would cause an issue?

Eric Katzfey

@Jeremy-Frederick I'm guessing that the black 4 wire cable between the VOXL 2 and the APM may have some issues making an occasional problem for the i2c bus. Do you have another one of those cables to swap with?
