Question

SPI_Transmit get stuck at HardFault_Handler @ stm32f4xx_it.c

I'm trying to create my own library,

When I use HAL_SPI_Transmit(), it gets stuck at

void HardFault_Handler(void) @stm32f4xx_it.c

  • I use SPI at my own library/function, not in the main function.

I also check SPI_Transmit before calling my own function, it is working there. But, in my function (contained different than main) does not work. Any Idea?

Thanks already!

void ILI9341_SendCommand(SPI_HandleTypeDef *hspi, uint8_t data)
{
	HAL_GPIO_WritePin(WRX_Port, WRX_Pin, GPIO_PIN_RESET);	// SET WRX HIGH
	HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS_Port, CS_Pin, GPIO_PIN_RESET);	// SET CS LOW
	while( HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi, data, 1, 100) != HAL_OK);

Pass the address to the data, not the value of the data itself.

while( HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi, &data, 1, 100) != HAL_OK);

For now, I turn my problem into a simpler situation. in "main.c" file.

This is my pre-define for my function

0693W00000D1asmQAB.jpgthe variable I create inside the main function

0693W00000D1avCQAR.jpgthe place I call the function

0693W00000D1atCQAR.jpgand the function itself (in the main file)

0693W00000D1b1eQAB.jpg 

I knew structure and code seems different than my original post. But I thought maybe if I create a simpler environment, I may fix it faster. Still, it turns HardFault at the system.

More specifically, when I open debug, press resume this page occurs.

this is the full code. I may not notice important detail, I am waiting for your kind help. :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Does anyone have an idea?

maybe I should declare my function as static void instead of void or anything else?

You are hopeless. Instead of making the recommended change, you go and change things entirely and introduce new errors.

I don't understand how you are compiling these codes as the compiler won't convert uint8_t to uint8_t * without a warning or error. Those warnings should give you a close as to what's wrong.

Similarly, the compiler won't convert uint8_t ** to uint8_t * without a warning or error.

error: cannot convert 'uint8_t** {aka unsigned char**}' to 'uint8_t* {aka unsigned char*}' for argument '2' to 'HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_SPI_Transmit(SPI_HandleTypeDef*, uint8_t*, uint16_t, uint32_t)'

How are you not seeing these errors?

with my all respect sir,

I try to learn things, commenting on someone as hopeless is kinda rude? But I will respect your aspect.

to answer your question how did I not get any error -> Well, I use STM32CubeIDE maybe that's an issue related to them?

Thanks for your response anyway, I have some medical situation right at moment, I have to stop my working process for a couple of days. I will check the issue and try to solve it if I could.

Also, I want to mention that, while I waiting for a response from any community member, I try things. Is it a bad thing? I didn't change everything entirely, my initial project still waiting as it is posted here. I just simplified the problem as much as I could, to see if anything may break while I arrange it in the first place.

Thanks again, kind regards.

Maybe it was a little harsh. I apologize.
It’s hard to solve a problem when the goalposts keep moving.
CubeIDE uses the GCC compiler, which absolutely will throw an error with that code. I can’t explain why you’re not seeing it in the console.
