Back to the business
After this we managed to recompile our project using the latest NuttX
sources, but it fails when trying to init the PHY irq on our STM32F427
board: We get "unexpected IRQ".
Yes I know that's pretty vague :-)
Is there anything obvious I should have been careful with in this
domain, before I dig the jtag probe to fix it (tomorrow) ?
I would first start by looking through the Release Notes between v7.30
and v10.1. Many big improvements and bug fixes happened and some of
them are mentioned in Compatibility Concerns along with some changes
you might need to make to configuration etc.
Also another thing you can try: Has this board and PHY worked
correctly with v7.30? If so, you can bisect and with very few tests
(I'm guessing fewer than 20) find the exact commit that broke it.
Release notes are hard to read but I did not find anything special about
phy interrupts.
Note that it may not be the phy interrupt. Here is my log:
stm32_netinitialize: Enabling PHY power
stm32_netinitialize: PHY reset...
stm32_netinitialize: PHY reset done.

A lot of OS initialization things happen at the point, marked by the
letter F.
It seems that an unexpected IRQ happens in this interval, around the
time the filesystem is initialized. The backtrace goes down to memory
allocation routines through the initialization of the root inode.
My guess is that AN external IRQ is triggered (possibly not the PHY IRQ)
but the ISR handler for that one is not ready yet. I will add debug
messages.
I would expect that situation to be a simple NOP, but it seems that
undefined handlers are set to this function "irq_unexpected_isr"
Is that a new behaviour? a default config that I did not set properly
when porting our old defconfig?
