LocalFileSystem & wait() triggers MbedOS Fault Handler

[yennster]

Description of defect

I'm observing an MbedOS hard fault when using the LocalFileSystem and wait(). I added a wait() command inside a loop that was writing multiple values to a CSV file. The hard fault seemed to occur when the wait() function was called.

Target(s) affected by this defect ?

LPC1768

Toolchain(s) (name and version) displaying this defect ?

GCC_ARM & Online Compiler

What version of Mbed-os are you using (tag or sha) ?

n/a

What version(s) of tools are you using. List all that apply (E.g. mbed-cli)

gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2017-q4-major

mbed-cli version: 1.5.0

How is this defect reproduced ?

I wrote up a simple LocalFileSystem example for the Mbed Application board that writes 100 integer values to a .csv file:

#include "mbed.h"
LocalFileSystem local("local");
int main() {
    FILE *fp = fopen("/local/test.csv","w");
    for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
        fprintf(fp, "%d\n", i);
    }
    fclose(fp);
}

The above code works and a TEST.CSV file is created in the local filesystem with integer values 0-99. However, when I add a wait function to the for loop, the MbedOS Fault Handler is triggered:

#include "mbed.h"
LocalFileSystem local("local");
int main() {
    FILE *fp = fopen("/local/test.csv","w");
    for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
        fprintf(fp, "%d\n", i);
        wait(0.05); // triggers ++ MbedOS Fault Handler ++
    }
    fclose(fp);
}

No values are stored into the csv file as the application doesn't get to fclose(fp);

Expected behavior That the fault handler is not triggered and the for loop waits for 0.05 seconds, then saves a test.csv file with the 100 integer values.

Actual behavior Output to the serial terminal of the Fault Handler error message:

                                        ++ MbedOS Fault Handler ++

                                                                  FaultType: HardFault

Sounds like it's probably the same root cause as https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/issues/6578 . [Mirrored to Jira]

@yennster thank you for raising this issue.Please take a look at the following comments:

Could you add some more detail to the description? A good description should be at least 25 words. What target(s) are you using? What toolchain(s) are you using? What version of Mbed OS are you using (tag or sha)? It would help if you could also specify the versions of any tools you are using? How can we reproduce your issue?

NOTE: If there are fields which are not applicable then please just add 'n/a' or 'None'.This indicates to us that at least all the fields have been considered. Please update the issue header with the missing information, the issue will not be mirroredto our internal defect tracking system or investigated until this has been fully resolved.
