voxl-camera-server failed to set pipe size: Cannot allocate memory
-
Hello,
I have a C++ application for doing image processing of frames from voxl-camera-server. When I run it, within a few minutes, my application stops receiving frames and I see the following from the camera server about failing to set pipe size. Once that occurs, restarting my application or the camera server does not help. Rebooting is the only thing I have found that consistently gets the camera server back in a good state.Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: thread is locked to cores: 4 5 6 7 Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: Connected to cpu-monitor Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: Skipping Camera: tracking_front, configuration marked disabled Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: Skipping Camera: hires_front, configuration marked disabled Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: Starting Camera: hires_down (id #2) Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: gbm_create_device(156): Info: backend name is: msm_drm Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: Skipping Camera: tracking_down, configuration marked disabled Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: ------ voxl-camera-server: Started 1 of 4 cameras Oct 03 14:11:21 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: ------ voxl-camera-server: Camera server is now running Oct 03 14:16:48 m0054 voxl-camera-server[10625]: WARNING failed to set pipe size: Cannot allocate memoryI'm on a Starling 2 Max.

I've included the code below. This exhibits the same behavior as my more complex image processing application. Is there any issue with the way I am connecting to the pipe and processing frames?
