Question

Experience with LWIP & Ethernet in STM32CubeMX for F4 MCUs. Is it stable for long run?

We made a custom board with a switch KSZ8463 which finally work. I'm just curious that is LWIP & Ethernet implementation in STM32CubeMX for STM32F4 is stable? I mean it works without problem for months or so?

Thanks.

No! And will not be in a foreseeable future, because ST's management doesn't care.

But if I apply those fixes then it should be stable, isn't it? For me it currently works for a day with webserver & ping, I wasn't able to test it longer yet.

Kind of... Just that "applying the fixes" means rewriting most of the code that ST's brainless code monkeys have created.
