High RAM usage on NXP FMUK66 on main (likely due to UAVCAN) #21836

Closed dirksavage88 closed 11 months ago

dirksavage88 commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug

High ram usage (maxed) on main using the FMUK66 by Nxp.

To Reproduce

This is with uavcan enabled and active connections to a uavcan gps+mag. Could not open a system console or console commands not recognized due to max ram usage. Nothing else out of the ordinary running (see screenshot). There is 256k ram on this FMU

Expected behavior

Could not replicate on stable/1.13 where ram usage was not causing issues.

So according to @PetervdPerk-NXP this is a known issue with uavcan enabled due to listener expansion with no known solution as of yet. Perhaps make uavcan selective of which listeners/topics?

Thanks @junwoo091400 for updating the title now that we know the exact cause of the high ram usage on this board

I dont have that NXP board but try this PR whether it helps to reduce the RAM usage. https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/pull/21928

I'll give it a shot @henrykotze.

In the mean time I disabled mavlink on the 2nd telem port and that helped reduce RAM usage.

Hey @PetervdPerk-NXP have you experience this before? Have any helpful tips for us?

henrykotze commented 1 year ago

@dirksavage88 you will just need to configure the board via the 'make boardconfig' command and disable all uavcan related subscribers and controllers.

About 90%, and I disabled all the uavcan subscribers except for GPS (which I use over DroneCAN), optical flow (I have a can flow sensor I use from time to time) and rangefinder. Serial over telem is back to default.
