Solution for RuntimeError: "ws2811_init failed with code -3 (Hardware revision is not supported)" | For Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5 and later #483

Open Ceberus132 opened 2 years ago

Ceberus132 commented 2 years ago

Hello,

if u try to run a Script from the Repo and you get the RuntimeError: "ws2811_init failed with code -3 (Hardware revision is not supported)" I found a solution for u =D

First open your shell, type in: cat /proc/cpuinfo or go to the Explorer, into "home/proc/cpuinfo" and open the File. At the Bottom will be a Part which looks like:

Hardware    : BCM2711
Revision    : b03115
Serial      : 100000000ed9a28c
Model       : Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5

Now open the shell, type in nano (or vim) rpi-ws281x/library/lib/rpihw.c and search for your Model. If you cant find it, we will follow this Guide: https://github.com/rpi-ws281x/rpi-ws281x-python/issues/56#issuecomment-753320723

Open the shell, first you uninstall the repo with sudo pip3 uninstall rpi_ws281x,

next you clone the git with git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/rpi-ws281x/rpi-ws281x-python,

after that you run nano (or vim) rpi-ws281x-python/library/lib/rpihw.c,

then you add:

{ 
     .hwver = 0xb03115, (Based on the Revision found in cpuinfo)
     .type = RPI_HWVER_TYPE_PI4, 
     .periph_base = PERIPH_BASE_RPI4, 
     .videocore_base = VIDEOCORE_BASE_RPI2, 
     .desc = "Pi 4 Model B - 2GB v1.5" (Based on the Model in cpuinfo)
},

after you made the changes, you change the Directory with cd rpi-ws281x-python/library/,

the last Command will be: sudo python3 setup.py install

I hope that helped, have a nice Day or Night =D

Tirenoth commented 2 years ago

Thank you! This worked like a charm.

One modification - since Easy Install is deprecated, running sudo python3 setup.py install didn't work correctly for me.

Instead, I needed to run sudo pip3 install /path/to/home/rpi-ws281x-python/library

Gadgetoid commented 2 years ago

If you find a new, unsupported revision you should also raise a PR to support it :smile:

Tirenoth commented 2 years ago

That didn't even occur to me while I was looking for a solution. Now it seems quite silly not to! :D

Heya, i believe i have a new unsupported revision: Hardware : BCM2835 Revision : c03115 Serial : 100000002fcc88bc Model : Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5

I'm sadly completely new to this (using a rgb ring, wiring and low level code) but what can i give of information to support this board aswell for my wrgb ring 16 led?

@michaelacosta-rpi follow the above quote and ya should be able to open a pr here (so everyone can use it it’s that revision!)

michaelacosta-rpi commented 2 years ago

Unfortunately I followed those steps and get the same error

sorry for the late reply so, just to double check, adding this:

    {
        .hwver = 0xa03115,
        .type = RPI_HWVER_TYPE_PI4,
        .periph_base = PERIPH_BASE_RPI4,
        .videocore_base = VIDEOCORE_BASE_RPI2,
        .desc = "Pi 4 Model B - 1GB v1.5"
    },

put it in this line: https://github.com/bbeesley/rpi_ws281x/blob/e1df895b7d816a7b0352ca267dc210bf8dbe5752/rpihw.c#L138

so that you get: (from line 138))

    },
    {
        .hwver = 0xa03115,
        .type = RPI_HWVER_TYPE_PI4,
        .periph_base = PERIPH_BASE_RPI4,
        .videocore_base = VIDEOCORE_BASE_RPI2,
        .desc = "Pi 4 Model B - 1GB v1.5"
    },
    {
        .hwver = 0xb03115,
        .type = RPI_HWVER_TYPE_PI4,
        .periph_base = PERIPH_BASE_RPI4,
        .videocore_base = VIDEOCORE_BASE_RPI2,
        .desc = "Pi 4 Model B - 2GB v1.5"
    },

and doing a recompile and then running with sudo the test script again still gives the error? it shouldn't, i checked the others and what was changed to support my board, and it all should check out

@Macleykun or @michaelacosta-rpi , were you able to solve this issue for the RPi 4 Model B 1 GB?

I have the same issue and have tried to use this method to solve the problem, but have not succeeded. I would appreciate if anyone could point out what I've missed so that I can start playing with my set of NeoPixels.

I started with this guide to use NeoPixels with a Raspberry Pi (though I have repeatedly uninstalled and installed since then): https://learn.adafruit.com/neopixels-on-raspberry-pi/python-usage

sudo pip3 install rpi_ws281x adafruit-circuitpython-neopixel sudo python3 -m pip install --force-reinstall adafruit-blinka

I have performed OS updates listed as prerequisites here: https://learn.adafruit.com/circuitpython-on-raspberrypi-linux/installing-circuitpython-on-raspberry-pi

Code I'm trying to run:

import board
import neopixel
pixels = neopixel.NeoPixel(board.D18,30)
pixels[0] = (255,0,0)

My stack trace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/pi/Documents/NeoPixels/Demo.py", line 4, in <module>
    pixels[0] = (255,0,0)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/adafruit_pixelbuf.py", line 312, in __setitem__
    self.show()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/adafruit_pixelbuf.py", line 204, in show

    neopixel_write(self.pin, buffer)
  File "/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/neopixel_write.py", line 38, in neopixel_write
    return _neopixel.neopixel_write(gpio, buf)
  File "/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/adafruit_blinka/microcontroller/bcm283x/neopixel.py", line 83, in neopixel_write
    "ws2811_init failed with code {0} ({1})".format(resp, message)
RuntimeError: ws2811_init failed with code -3 (Hardware revision is not supported)

My output of cat /proc/cpuinfo: (Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 1 GB - a03115)

Hardware    : BCM2711
Revision    : a03115
Serial      : 1000000030ded1c1
Model       : Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5

I ran the github command to download code to this directory:

/home/pi/Documents/NeoPixels/rpi_ws281x/rpi-ws281x-python/library/lib

Inside rpihw.c on lines 138-144 I already see the appropriate values for my hardware model:

    {
        .hwver = 0xa03115,
        .type = RPI_HWVER_TYPE_PI4,
        .periph_base = PERIPH_BASE_RPI4,
        .videocore_base = VIDEOCORE_BASE_RPI2,
        .desc = "Pi 4 Model B - 1GB v1.5"
    }

So, I navigated to the \library directory and ran the command

sudo python3 setup.py install

This appeared to compile & install, but the issue was not resolved

I also tried the top commenter's command saying easy install is deprecated with no effect:

sudo pip3 install .

This also appeared to run properly, but did not solve the issue.

So, I wanted to make sure the version I had pulled was the one being installed, so I tried uninstalling with this command:

sudo pip3 uninstall rpi_ws281x sudo pip3 uninstall adafruit-circuitpython-neopixel

I believe this worked, because my stack trace changes to being unable to import NeoPixel: Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/home/pi/Documents/NeoPixels/Demo.py", line 2, in <module>
    import neopixel
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'neopixel'

I then try the above python install again:

sudo pip3 install . sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-neopixel

Is there any way to look through the /site-packages/ and /dist-packages/ to find the rpihw.c file and make sure I've have an appropriate setup? I tried poking through the .py files in the stack trace but I'm not particularly experienced in python, or how it interacts with c.

Also, since the code imported from github apparently required no modifications, I would expect the command

sudo pip3 install rpi_ws281x

to install a functioning version, but it does not. What else am I missing?

marcuszerep commented 2 years ago

I'd like to contribute to the resolution of this issue, but I am not a C/compiled code developer. I've gathered the needed json code https://github.com/jgarff/rpi_ws281x/issues/483#issuecomment-1115780466 for https://github.com/jgarff/rpi_ws281x/blob/master/rpihw.c

I can also DEV/UAT test for an 8GB v1.5 Pi.

Also willing to hire an existing contributor to get this resolved. Would hire a fiver person to make the code change and compile, but I would rather compensate an existing contributor. (@navrocky @Gadgetoid @arcturis @timonsku @flokli @Tirenoth I see you all are recent contributors.) Thanks all

Any update on this one :) ?

marcuszerep commented 2 years ago

This issue should be closed out.

I can confirm I had someone compile the library and I've tested on Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5 8gb & 4gb. If you are still having an issue, you are either 1) using an older build, 2) using a library which is dependent on this with an older build (they need to update their dependency on this), or 3) did not compile the library properly or with the most recent build.

Can anyone advise on what would be the parameters for rpihw.c ? or if there's another command to get the Hardware/Revision/Serial/Model data?

Is there a way to debug rpi_ws281x/rpihw.c and just print what is the hwver should be?

Thanks
