How to use USBX on H7 for simultaneous host and device?

[ron239955_stm1]

I've been trying to get a new project up and running on a custom H743 board, using AzureRTOS for the first time. This board has both USB ports, with FS set up as a device and HS set up as a host, with an external PHY. I have had this same hardware successfully running different firmware with ST's older drivers, and both ports work.

It seems like the code doesn't handle having both device and host ports active, even though CubeMX allows you to set it up that way. I run into some issues with both host and device drivers calling _ux_system_initialize, and that seems to trash some of the host's data structures when called by the device's driver code.

Either I'm missing something, or the code simply doesn't work for this configuration. I hope it's the former. Are there any code examples of running host and device on the same system?

Here are some numbers I'm using:

ThreadX memory pool size: 16384

FileX memory pool size: 2048

USBX Host memory pool size 32768

USBX Device memory pool size 4096

TX Application thread stack size 8192

ThreadX timer stack size 1024

UX thread stack size 2048

UX host enum thread stack size 2048

UX host HCD thread stack size 2048

UX host HNP polling thread stack size 2048

UX host class storage memory buffer size 8192

UX host class storage thread stack size 2048

I haven't turned on caches yet... Not even certain I need them, it's running quite fast as it is.

Hi @ron239955_stm1 

Thanks for the numbers.... Mine are a lot bigger.  Did you do any analysis (ie fill stacks with 0 and then see how many locations were used over time), or just educated guess?

[ron239955_stm1]

I had to start by tracing through the code and see where it failed memory allocations, then bumping up the memory numbers appropriately. Then, I used the ThreadX task view in STM32CubeIDE to see how much stack the tasks were actually using and reduced anything that seemed like it had way too much.
