Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Broken gr_fir_fff ?
Can you pull the latest gnuradio next branch? I reverted some changes with the tags until we can re-group. You may have run into an issue with the work function implementation. Let me know if that resolves the issue. -Josh On 12/05/2010 05:53 PM, madengr wrote: > > > > Eric Blossom wrote: >> >> On Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 08:05:51PM -0800, madengr wrote: >> >> >> It's unlikely that there's a problem in gr_fir_fff. >> >> What version of GNU Radio are you using? >> What OS, distribution and version? >> What hardware are you running it on? >> How much memory does the machine have? >> Is there anything interesting in /var/log/messages? >> >> >> Eric >> >> > > Using "next" branch of GNU Radio pulled on 12/3/10. > Pulled latest UHD source same day. > Using latest USRP2 firmware and bit file for UHD > Fedora 14, 32 bit > Dell M6500 Laptop with 4 GB RAM > Nothing from /var/log/messages or from dmesg > > I've boiled it down to something more fundamental.

Pulled latest UHD source same day. Using latest USRP2 firmware and bit file for UHD Fedora 14, 32 bit Dell M6500 Laptop with 4 GB RAM Nothing from /var/log/messages or from dmesg I've boiled it down to something more fundamental.

What hardware are you running it on? How much memory does the machine have? Is there anything interesting in /var/log/messages?

[Discuss-gnuradio] Broken gr_fir_fff ?
Sorry if I can't provide any more debug info, I'm new and ignorant, but I updated from both the GnuRadio, UHD, and gr-air-mode repos today, and now I'm getting two programs with duplicate failure in gr_fir_fff. They just dump back to the shell after 2 seconds with no debug info. Only thing I did in uhd_modes.py was add my ip addr to the uhd src, so I don't think it's modifications I have made. It was working fine last night, but I did update from the repo today. I made some modifications to usrp_flex_band.py to getting it working with the USRP2 and UHD However I made the same mods to usrp_flex.py and it works fine. usrp_flex_band.py uses a 40 channel filter bank which I reduced to 4, in an attempt to debug, since it was causing a core dump, but I think that's a separate issue of thread resources (see the third excerpt below). --- m...@lt6034239[/usr/local/src/gr-air-modes/src/python]$ ./uhd_modes.py -a -g 30 linux; GNU C++ version 4.5.1 20100924 (Red Hat 4.5.1-4); Boost_104400; UHD_0001.20101201214203.8fc7521 Current recv sock buff size: 5000 bytes Setting gain to 30 Rate is 400 >>> gr_fir_fff: using SSE m...@lt6034239[/usr/local/src/gr-air-modes/src/python]$ m...@lt6034239[~/gnuradio_apps/pager]$ ./usrp_flex_band.py -g 30 linux; GNU C++ version 4.5.1 20100924 (Red Hat 4.5.1-4); Boost_104400; UHD_0001.20101201214203.8fc7521 Current recv sock buff size: 5000 bytes >>> gr_fir_fff: using SSE m...@lt6034239[~/gnuradio_apps/pager]$ m...@lt6034239[~/gnuradio_apps/pager]$ ./usrp_flex_band.py -g 30 linux; GNU C++ version 4.5.1 20100924 (Red Hat 4.5.1-4); Boost_104400; UHD_0001.20101201214203.8fc7521 Current recv sock buff size: 5000 bytes >>> gr_fir_fff: using SSE terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::exception_detail::clone_impl >' what(): boost::thread_resource_error Aborted (core dumped) m...@lt6034239[~/gnuradio_apps/pager]$ -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Broken-gr_fir_fff---tp30355695p30355695.html Sent from the GnuRadio mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
