esp_timer_get_time() is the right choice for precision timing.<br>
<br>
I'd say uint32 is enough though, even if counting microseconds that
can hold a total of more than 71 hours of actual processing time.
uint64 has a significant performance penalty, although I don't
recall the overhead for simple additions.<br>
<br>
Also & more important, the average wouldn't be my main focus,
but the maximum processing time seen per ID, which seems to be
missing in your draft.<br>
<br>
Second thought on the average… the exact overall average really has
a minor meaning, I'd rather see the current average, adapting to the
current mode of operation (drive/charge/…). I suggest feeding the
measurements to a low pass filter to get the smoothed average of the
last n measurements. Pattern:<br>
<br>
runavg = ((N-1) * runavg + newval) / N<br>
<br>
By using a low power of 2 for N (e.g. 8 or 16), you can replace the
division by a simple bit shift, and have enough headroom to use 32
bit integers.<br>

<div>This uses the call esp_timer_get_time() got get a 64bit <b>microseconds</b>
since started value - and works out the time to execute that
way. It's looking at absolute time and not time in the Task -
so other things going on at the same time in other tasks will
have an effect. (The normal tick count doesn't have nearly
enough resolution to be useful - any other ideas on
measurement?) I've got total accumulated time displaying in
seconds and the average in milliseconds currently - but I can
change that easy enough.</div>
<div>The cumulative time is stored as uint64_t which will be
plenty, as 32bit wouldn't be nearly enough.<br>

<div> Warning / gathering debug statistics about slow
processing can be helpful, but there must not be a
hard limit. Frame/poll response processing may need
disk or network I/O, and the vehicle task may be
starving from punctual high loads on higher priority
tasks (e.g. networking) or by needing to wait for some
semaphore -- that's outside the application's control,
and must not lead to termination/recreation of the
task (in case you're heading towards that direction).<br>
<br>
I have no idea how much processing time the current
vehicles actually need in their respective worst
cases. Your draft is probably too lax, poll responses
and frames normally need to be processed much faster.
I'd say 10 ms is already too slow, but any wait for a
queue/semaphore will already mean at least 10 ms
(FreeRTOS tick). Probably best to begin with just
collecting stats.<br>
<br>
Btw, to help in narrowing down the actual problem
case, the profiler could collect max times per RX
message ID.<br>

<div> - Add 'current queue length' to
the poller status information to see
if this is indeed the case? </div>
<div> - Add some kind of alert when the
queue reaches a % full?</div>
<div>* Once you start overflowing and
getting overflow log messages, I
wonder if this is then contributing to
the problem.</div>
<div> - Push the overflow logging into
Poller Task which can look at how many
drops occurred since last received
item.</div>
<div>* Split up the flags for the poller
messages into 2:<br>
</div>
<div> - Messages that are/could be
happening in the TX/RX tasks</div>
<div> - Other noisy messages that
always happen in the poller task.</div>

<br>
Also, from the time stamps in Dereks
log excerpt, there were quite some
dropped frames in that time window --
at least 23 frames in 40 ms, that's
bad.<br>
<br>
Queue sizes are currently:<br>
<br>
<font face="monospace">CONFIG_OVMS_HW_CAN_RX_QUEUE_SIZE=60<br>
CONFIG_OVMS_VEHICLE_CAN_RX_QUEUE_SIZE=60</font><br>
<br>
The new poller now channels all TX
callbacks through the task queue
additionally to RX and commands. So
setting the queue size to be larger
than the CAN RX queue size seems
appropriate.<br>
<br>
Nevertheless, an overflow with more
than 60 waiting messages still
indicates some too long processing
time in the vehicle task.<br>
<br>
TX callbacks previously were done
directly in the CAN context, and no
current vehicle overrides the empty
default handler, so this imposed
almost no additional overhead. By
requiring a queue entry for each TX
callback, this feature now has a
potentially high impact for all
vehicles. If passing these to the task
is actually necessary, it needs to
become an opt-in feature, so only
vehicles subscribing to the callback
actually need to cope with that
additional load & potential
processing delays involved.<br>
