SPI CRC via DMA dosen't work

[UlfS]

Dear ST,

I use STM32F777 and try to receive SPI Data as a slave via SPI DMA. That works only pretty fine, when I don't activate the CRC Checksum calculation. I receive after the DMA threshold the expected data, but when I set: 

.CRCCalculation = SPI_CRCCALCULATION_ENABLE, 

The received data traped in a Error Callback from the SPI, always.

All my init values of the SPI are vaild, look like here:

.SPI_CONFIG = {.Mode = SPI_MODE_SLAVE,

                                                             .Direction = SPI_DIRECTION_2LINES_RXONLY,

                                                             .DataSize = SPI_DATASIZE_8BIT,

                                                             .CLKPolarity = SPI_POLARITY_LOW, // => CPOL = 1

                                                             .CLKPhase = SPI_PHASE_2EDGE, //=> CPHA = 0

                                                             .NSS =  SPI_NSS_SOFT, //SPI_NSS_HARD_INPUT,

                                                             .BaudRatePrescaler = SPI_BAUDRATEPRESCALER_2,

                                                             .FirstBit = SPI_FIRSTBIT_MSB,

                                                             .TIMode = SPI_TIMODE_DISABLE,

                                                             .CRCCalculation = SPI_CRCCALCULATION_ENABLE, // ToDo activate CRC

                                                             .CRCPolynomial = CRC16_CCIT_ZERO, // ToDo activate CRC

                                                             .CRCLength =   SPI_CRC_LENGTH_16BIT,//, //ToDo activate CRC

                                                             .NSSPMode = SPI_NSS_PULSE_DISABLE},

Poly is 0x1021

Inti value is 0x0000

If I use the CRC HW Unit via SW, that works as well. But I still have to use the combination of DMA and CRC, because that part is on our application, very time critical. I still can not use the CPU instead.

What is "Error Callback from the SPI"?

Do you use some "library"? Which one? How? Why? Did you try your own code with possibly better control?

Have you tried using polled implementation?

Hi JW,

ErrorCallBack is: 

HAL_SPI_ErrorCallback()

Do you use some "library"? Which one?

STM32F7xx_HAL_Driver

Files include:

stm32f7xx_hal_crc.c

stm32f7xx_hal_spi.c

> Did you try your own code with possibly better control?

Yes and no, we use from ecomatic a layer on top, to deal with all possible transmission-ways like: Transmit Only / Receive Only, TransmitReceive and Error.  But this works!

The part which dosent work is located deeper in the HAL lib from ST. Because the Error happens after I trigger the DMA request, to wait till x Bytes are received. After receiving, a ITR will called which works without CRC Enable. 

The SPI Master is an FPGA which send these Data till the end with a 16bit CRC checksum.

When I read the Register SPI DR from CRC HW unit, the 16bit value is completly different as I expected from the crc of the FPGA. 

Again, When I use instead the internal HW CRC in SW, initialize it, the CRC calculation is correct?!

But I can use the HW Unit in SW, unfortunate I dont have this time, these must be calculate during the DMA is receiving datas.

>Have you tried using polled implementation?

No, is not really a solution for me. When the DMA + CRC calculation is finish, a ITR should be raised (Callback).

Did you have a idea?

Thanks again

So, the problem is, that CRC calculated by the SPI unit does not match CRC calculated by FPGA, correct?

Can you give a couple of examples?
