Description

Unexpected crash in WiFiGeneric.cpp with debug level 3 (info). I expect the WiFi module to print debug messages without crashing.

Crashed on WiFiGeneric WIFI_REASON_UNSPECIFIED line 953: log_w("Reason: %u - %s", reason, reason2str(reason));.

#define reason2str(r) ((r>176)?system_event_reasons[r-176]:system_event_reasons[r-1])

const char * system_event_reasons[] = { "UNSPECIFIED", "AUTH_EXPIRE", "AUTH_LEAVE", "ASSOC_EXPIRE", "ASSOC_TOOMANY", "NOT_AUTHED", "NOT_ASSOCED", "ASSOC_LEAVE", "ASSOC_NOT_AUTHED", "DISASSOC_PWRCAP_BAD", "DISASSOC_SUPCHAN_BAD", "UNSPECIFIED", "IE_INVALID", "MIC_FAILURE", "4WAY_HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT", "GROUP_KEY_UPDATE_TIMEOUT", "IE_IN_4WAY_DIFFERS", "GROUP_CIPHER_INVALID", "PAIRWISE_CIPHER_INVALID", "AKMP_INVALID", "UNSUPP_RSN_IE_VERSION", "INVALID_RSN_IE_CAP", "802_1X_AUTH_FAILED", "CIPHER_SUITE_REJECTED", "BEACON_TIMEOUT", "NO_AP_FOUND", "AUTH_FAIL", "ASSOC_FAIL", "HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT", "CONNECTION_FAIL" };

Not sure why it crashed. I think system_event_reasons[] is being indexed correctly.

Likely related to #7414. If we continue getting crashes on define reason2str then I recommend converting it to a function.

This is how I print WiFi errors in my code:

const char* wifiErrToString(wifi_err_reason_t reason);

/**
 * @brief Convert a wifi_err_reason_t code to a string.
 * @param [in] reason The error code to be converted.
 * @return A string representation of the error code.
 * @note: wifi_err_reason_t values as of Mar 2023 are: (1-39, 46-51, 67-68, 200-208) and are defined in /tools/sdk/esp32/include/esp_wifi/include/esp_wifi_types.h.

@PilnyTomas Can you please check this issue? Thanks

mrengineer7777 · 2023-03-22T13:15:02Z

I've been thinking about this. The macro reason2str could cause a crash if the index passed doesn't match the expected range. The debug messages should be rewritten as a function to avoid this. Would you like me to submit a PR?

nplan · 2023-03-29T18:06:44Z

I'm experiencing a similar issue in my project.

ESP32-S2 on arduino-esp32 v2.0.6.

A user has reported it. It occurs every time he tries to use the device. But I haven't been able to reproduce it myself.

The ESP32 is waking up from deep sleep and trying to connect to a WPA3 network.

mrengineer7777 · 2023-03-30T16:20:27Z

@nplan Thanks for confirming it's not just me. Ironically it's the debug log message that causes the crash.

I'll submit a PR later to convert the reason2str macro into a function. That should resolve a potential crash due to bad index.

mrengineer7777 · 2023-03-31T22:28:54Z

I have started working on this PR. Will submit next week.

mrengineer7777 · 2023-04-04T20:07:03Z

Just had another crash on WiFiGeneric line 953, log_w("Reason: %u - %s", reason, reason2str(reason)); Time to finish the PR.
