Description Torfinn Ingolfsen 2020-12-02 15:56:27 UTC
urjtag core dumps when trying to use it with an Altera USB Blaster. Installed from ports on a FreeBSD 11.4-stable machine:
root@kg-core1# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-core1.kg4.no 11.4-STABLE FreeBSD 11.4-STABLE #3 r362432: Sat Jun 20 12:51:06 CEST 2020     root@kg-core1.kg4.no:/zs/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

root@kg-core1# pkg info urjtag*
urjtag-2019.12_1
root@kg-core1# pkg options urjtag
urjtag - FTDI: on
urjtag - JEDEC: on
urjtag - NLS: on
urjtag - PYTHON: off
urjtag - USB: on

The USB Blaster is correctly identified:
root@kg-core1# usbconfig -d ugen3.3
ugen3.3: <Altera USB-Blaster> at usbus3, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=ON (80mA)
root@kg-core1# ls -l /dev/ugen3.3 /dev/usb/3.3.0

Hi Torfinn,

Thank you for your report.

Are you able to run under the debugger and post a stack trace here?

The easiest way to do this is:
> sudo pkg delete libftdi1 urjtag && cd /usr/ports/devel/urjtag && WITH_DEBUG=yes make install
> sudo pkg install gdb

Then re-run the same urjtag command that crashes prefixed with /usr/local/bin/gdb and when it would crash type 'bt<Enter>' and post the stack trace here.


Thank you,
Yuri

  devel/urjtag: Add the NOASYNC option to possibly work around bugs like bug#251533

Comment 5 Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-12-02 21:09:57 UTC
Torfinn,

I added the new option NOASYNC to devel/urjtag.

Could you please update this port, select this option (NOASYNC=ON), rebuild, and see if it still crashes?

This option is not made user-choosable by urjtag, but they test if it is supported in libftdi and enable it internally. The code that crashes for you is conditional on this option.

Thank you,
Yuri
