Typedef Documentation

mbed_error_code_t definition

mbed_error_code_t enumeration defines the Error codes and Error status values for MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN.
It defines all of POSIX Error Codes/Statuses and Mbed System Error Codes/Statuses.

Note
POSIX Error codes are defined using the macro MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR
For example MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR( EPERM, EPERM ). This effectively defines the following values:
ERROR_CODE_EPERM = EPERM
ERROR_EPERM = -EPERM
POSIX Error codes are defined using the macro MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR
For example MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR( EPERM, EPERM ). This macro defines the following values:
ERROR_CODE_EPERM = MBED_POSIX_ERROR_BASE+EPERM
ERROR_EPERM = -(MBED_POSIX_ERROR_BASE+EPERM)
Its effectively equivalent to:
ERROR_CODE_EPERM = 1
ERROR_EPERM = -1
All POSIX error codes currently supported by MbedOS(defined in mbed_retarget.h) are defined using the MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR macro.

Below are the POSIX error codes and the description:
EPERM                      1        Operation not permitted

MbedOS System Error codes are defined using the macro MBED_DEFINE_SYSTEM_ERROR
For example MBED_DEFINE_SYSTEM_ERROR( INVALID_ARGUMENT ,1 ) macro defines the following values:
ERROR_CODE_INVALID_ARGUMENT = MBED_SYSTEM_ERROR_BASE+1
ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT = MAKE_MBED_ERROR(ERROR_TYPE_SYSTEM, MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN, ERROR_CODE_INVALID_ARGUMENT)
Its effectively equivalent to:
ERROR_CODE_INVALID_ARGUMENT = 1
ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT = 0x80FF0001
(Note that MODULE field is set to MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN) New System Error codes should be defined using MBED_DEFINE_SYSTEM_ERROR macro and must have an unique error code value
passed as the second argument in the MBED_DEFINE_SYSTEM_ERROR macro.

Below are the Mbed System error codes and the description:

Custom Error codes can be defined using the macro DEFINE_CUSTOM_ERROR
This is mainly meant to capture non-generic error codes specific to a device. For example DEFINE_CUSTOM_ERROR( MY_CUSTOM_ERROR ,1 ) macro defines the following values:
ERROR_CODE_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR = MBED_CUSTOM_ERROR_BASE+1
ERROR_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR = MAKE_MBED_ERROR(ERROR_TYPE_CUSTOM, MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN, ERROR_CODE_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR)
Its effectively equivalent to:
ERROR_CODE_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR = 4097
ERROR_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR = 0xA0FF1001
(Note that MODULE field is set to MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN)

Using error codes:
POSIX error codes may be used in modules/functions currently using POSIX error codes and switching them to Mbed-OS error codes may cause interoperability issues. For example, some of the filesystem, network stack implementations may need to use POSIX error codes in order to keep them compatible with other modules interfacing with them, and may continue to use POSIX error codes.

In all other cases, like for any native development of Mbed-OS modules Mbed-OS error codes should be used. This makes it easy to use Mbed-OS error reporting/logging infrastructure and makes debugging error scenarios much more efficient.

Note
Searching for error codes in mbed-os source tree:
If you get an error report as below which you want to search for in mbed-os source tree, first take note of "Error Code" number.
For example, the below error report has an error code of 259. Find the error name associated with the error code and in this case its INVALID_FORMAT.
Use that error name(INVALID_FORMAT) to search the source tree for code locations setting that specific error code.
If the Error module reported is not 255(which indicates unknown module), you can also use that to narrow down to the specific component reporting the error. See mbed_module_type_t enum above for module mapping.

mbed_error_ctx struct

This struct captures the context information at the time of error.
It primarily contains information about the thread where the error originated,
filename/line number of the source file where the error occurred, a context specific error value(error_value)
and the address where the error originated.

Note
Below are the members of mbed_error_ctx struct
error_status mbed_error_status_t value for this error
error_function_address Address where the error occurred
thread_id ID of the thread which generated the error
thread_entry_address Entry function of the thread which generated the error

typedef void(* mbed_error_hook_t) (const mbed_error_ctx *error_ctx)

Callback/Error hook function prototype.

Applications needing a callback when an error is reported can use mbed_set_error_hook function to register a callback/error hook function using the following prototype. When an error happens in the system error handling implementation will invoke this callback with the mbed_error_status_t reported and the error context at the time of error.

Parameters
error_ctxError context structure associated with this error.
Returns
void

typedef int mbed_error_status_t

mbed_error_status_t description

mbed_error_status_t type represents the error status values under MbedOS. mbed_error_status_t values are signed integers and always be negative.
Internally its encoded as below with bit-fields representing error type, module and error code:

mbed_error_status_t Status Encoding:

| 31 Always Negative | 30-29(2 bits)  | 28-24              | 23-16(8 bits) | 15-0(16 bits) |
| -1                 | TYPE           | (unused/reserved)  | MODULE TYPE   | ERROR CODE    |

The error status value range for each error type is as follows:
POSIX Error Status-es - 0xFFFFFFFF to 0xFFFFFF01(-1 -255) - This corresponds to POSIX error codes represented as negative.
System Error Status-es - 0x80XX0100 to 0x80XX0FFF - This corresponds to System error codes range(all values are negative). Bits 23-16 will be module type(marked with XX)
Custom Error Status-es - 0xA0XX1000 to 0xA0XXFFFF - This corresponds to Custom error codes range(all values are negative). Bits 23-16 will be module type(marked with XX)

The ERROR CODE(values encoded into ERROR CODE bit-field in mbed_error_status_t) value range for each error type is also separated as below:
POSIX Error Codes - 1 to 255.
System Error Codes - 256 to 4095.
Custom Error Codes - 4096 to 65535.

Note
POSIX error codes are always encoded as negative of their actual value. For example, EPERM is encoded as -EPERM. And, the MODULE TYPE for POSIX error codes are always encoded as MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN.
This is to enable easy injection of POSIX error codes into MbedOS error handling system without altering the actual POSIX error values.
Accordingly, POSIX error codes are represented as -1 to -255 under MbedOS error status representation.

mbed_error_type_t definition

Note
This enumeration defines the Error types supported. The value of these enum values will be encoded into mbed_error_status_t TYPE field.
See mbed_error_status_t description for more info.
MBED_ERROR_TYPE_SYSTEM - Used to indicate that the error status is of System defined Error type.
MBED_ERROR_TYPE_CUSTOM - Used to indicate that the error status is of Custom defined Error type.
MBED_ERROR_TYPE_POSIX - Used to indicate that the error status is of POSIX error type.

mbed_module_type_t definition

Note
This enumeration defines the module types. The value of these enum values will be encoded into mbed_error_status_t MODULE field.

See mbed_error_status_t description for more info.
MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN - This module type can be used if caller of the mbed_error/mbed_warning doesn't know who is the actual originator of the error.
Other module values can be used to provide more info on who/where the error originated from.

For example, if I2C driver is the component originating the error you can use MBED_MODULE_DRIVER_I2C to provide more info.
Its used in call to MBED_MAKE_ERROR/MBED_MAKE_SYSTEM_ERROR/MBED_MAKE_CUSTOM_ERROR macros.
1 Example: mbed_error_status_t i2c_driver_error = MBED_MAKE_ERROR( MBED_MODULE_DRIVER_I2C, MBED_ERROR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED );

Enumeration Type Documentation

mbed_error_code_t definition

mbed_error_code_t enumeration defines the Error codes and Error status values for MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN.
It defines all of POSIX Error Codes/Statuses and Mbed System Error Codes/Statuses.

Note
POSIX Error codes are defined using the macro MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR
For example MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR( EPERM, EPERM ). This effectively defines the following values:
ERROR_CODE_EPERM = EPERM
ERROR_EPERM = -EPERM
POSIX Error codes are defined using the macro MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR
For example MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR( EPERM, EPERM ). This macro defines the following values:
ERROR_CODE_EPERM = MBED_POSIX_ERROR_BASE+EPERM
ERROR_EPERM = -(MBED_POSIX_ERROR_BASE+EPERM)
Its effectively equivalent to:
ERROR_CODE_EPERM = 1
ERROR_EPERM = -1
All POSIX error codes currently supported by MbedOS(defined in mbed_retarget.h) are defined using the MBED_DEFINE_POSIX_ERROR macro.

Below are the POSIX error codes and the description:

MbedOS System Error codes are defined using the macro MBED_DEFINE_SYSTEM_ERROR
For example MBED_DEFINE_SYSTEM_ERROR( INVALID_ARGUMENT ,1 ) macro defines the following values:
ERROR_CODE_INVALID_ARGUMENT = MBED_SYSTEM_ERROR_BASE+1
ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT = MAKE_MBED_ERROR(ERROR_TYPE_SYSTEM, MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN, ERROR_CODE_INVALID_ARGUMENT)
Its effectively equivalent to:
ERROR_CODE_INVALID_ARGUMENT = 1
ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT = 0x80FF0001
(Note that MODULE field is set to MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN) New System Error codes should be defined using MBED_DEFINE_SYSTEM_ERROR macro and must have an unique error code value
passed as the second argument in the MBED_DEFINE_SYSTEM_ERROR macro.

Below are the Mbed System error codes and the description:

Custom Error codes can be defined using the macro DEFINE_CUSTOM_ERROR
This is mainly meant to capture non-generic error codes specific to a device. For example DEFINE_CUSTOM_ERROR( MY_CUSTOM_ERROR ,1 ) macro defines the following values:
ERROR_CODE_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR = MBED_CUSTOM_ERROR_BASE+1
ERROR_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR = MAKE_MBED_ERROR(ERROR_TYPE_CUSTOM, MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN, ERROR_CODE_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR)
Its effectively equivalent to:
ERROR_CODE_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR = 4097
ERROR_MY_CUSTOM_ERROR = 0xA0FF1001
(Note that MODULE field is set to MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN)

Using error codes:
POSIX error codes may be used in modules/functions currently using POSIX error codes and switching them to Mbed-OS error codes may cause interoperability issues. For example, some of the filesystem, network stack implementations may need to use POSIX error codes in order to keep them compatible with other modules interfacing with them, and may continue to use POSIX error codes.

In all other cases, like for any native development of Mbed-OS modules Mbed-OS error codes should be used. This makes it easy to use Mbed-OS error reporting/logging infrastructure and makes debugging error scenarios much more efficient.

Note
Searching for error codes in mbed-os source tree:
If you get an error report as below which you want to search for in mbed-os source tree, first take note of "Error Code" number.
For example, the below error report has an error code of 259. Find the error name associated with the error code and in this case its INVALID_FORMAT.
Use that error name(INVALID_FORMAT) to search the source tree for code locations setting that specific error code.
If the Error module reported is not 255(which indicates unknown module), you can also use that to narrow down to the specific component reporting the error. See mbed_module_type_t enum above for module mapping.

mbed_error_type_t definition

Note
This enumeration defines the Error types supported. The value of these enum values will be encoded into mbed_error_status_t TYPE field.
See mbed_error_status_t description for more info.
MBED_ERROR_TYPE_SYSTEM - Used to indicate that the error status is of System defined Error type.
MBED_ERROR_TYPE_CUSTOM - Used to indicate that the error status is of Custom defined Error type.
MBED_ERROR_TYPE_POSIX - Used to indicate that the error status is of POSIX error type.

mbed_module_type_t definition

Note
This enumeration defines the module types. The value of these enum values will be encoded into mbed_error_status_t MODULE field.

See mbed_error_status_t description for more info.
MBED_MODULE_UNKNOWN - This module type can be used if caller of the mbed_error/mbed_warning doesn't know who is the actual originator of the error.
Other module values can be used to provide more info on who/where the error originated from.

For example, if I2C driver is the component originating the error you can use MBED_MODULE_DRIVER_I2C to provide more info.
Its used in call to MBED_MAKE_ERROR/MBED_MAKE_SYSTEM_ERROR/MBED_MAKE_CUSTOM_ERROR macros.

Function Documentation

MBED_NORETURN void error ( const char *  format,
  ... 
)

To generate a fatal compile-time error, you can use the pre-processor error directive.

Parameters
formatC string that contains data stream to be printed. Code snippets below show valid format.
1 #error "That shouldn't have happened!"

If the compiler evaluates this line, it will report the error and stop the compile.

For example, you could use this to check some user-defined compile-time variables:

1 #define NUM_PORTS 7
2 #if (NUM_PORTS > 4)
3  #error "NUM_PORTS must be less than 4"
4 #endif

Reporting Run-Time Errors: To generate a fatal run-time error, you can use the mbed error() function.

1 error("That shouldn't have happened!");

If the mbed running the program executes this function, it will print the message via the USB serial port, and then die with the blue lights of death!

The message can use printf-style formatting, so you can report variables in the message too. For example, you could use this to check a run-time condition:

1 if(x >= 5) {
2  error("expected x to be less than 5, but got %d", x);
3 }
mbed_error_status_t mbed_clear_all_errors ( void  )

Clears the last error, first error, error count and all entries in the error history.

Returns
0 or MBED_SUCCESS on success.
MBED_NORETURN mbed_error_status_t mbed_error ( mbed_error_status_t  error_status,
const char *  error_msg,
unsigned int  error_value,
const char *  filename,
int  line_number 
)

Call this function to set a fatal system error and halt the system.

This function will log the fatal error with the context info and prints the error report and halts the system.

mbed_error_status_t mbed_error_initialize ( void  )

Initialize error handling system, this is called by the mbed-os boot sequence.

This is not required to be called by Application unless the boot sequence is overridden by the system implementation. NOTE: If MBED_CONF_PLATFORM_FATAL_ERROR_AUTO_REBOOT_ENABLED is enabled and if the current reboot count exceeds MBED_CONF_PLATFORM_ERROR_REBOOT_MAX the system will halt when this function is called, and in such cases the caller will not get the control back. Also note that calling this function may trigger mbed_error_reboot_callback() if application side overides mbed_error_reboot_callback().

Returns
MBED_SUCCESS on success.
void mbed_error_reboot_callback ( mbed_error_ctx error_context)

Callback function for reporting error context during boot up.

When MbedOS error handling system detects a fatal error it will auto-reboot the system(if MBED_CONF_PLATFORM_FATAL_ERROR_AUTO_REBOOT_ENABLED is enabled) after capturing the error info in special crash data RAM region. Once rebooted, MbedOS initialization routines will call this function with a pointer to the captured mbed_error_ctx structure. If application implementation needs to receive this callback, mbed_error_reboot_callback function should be overridden with custom implementation. By default it's defined as a WEAK function in mbed_error.c. Note that this callback will be invoked before the system starts executing main() function. So the implementation of the callback should be aware any resource limitations/availability of resources which are yet to be initialized by application main().

Parameters
error_ctxError context structure associated with this error.
Returns
void
int mbed_get_error_count ( void  )

Returns the number of system errors reported after boot.

Returns
int Number of errors reported.
int mbed_get_error_hist_count ( void  )

Returns the current number of entries in the error history, if there has been more than max number of errors logged the number returned will be max depth of error history.

Returns
Current number of entries in the error history.
mbed_error_status_t mbed_get_error_hist_info ( int  index,
mbed_error_ctx error_info 
)

Reads the error context information for a specific error from error history, specified by the index.

Parameters
indexindex of the error context entry in the history to be retrieved.
The number of entries in the error history is configured during build and the max index depends on max depth of error history.
index = 0 points to the oldest entry in the history, and index = (max history depth - 1) points to the latest entry in the error history.
error_infoThis is the mbed_error_context info captured as part of the error history. The caller should pass a pointer to mbed_error_context struct allocated by the caller.
Returns
0 or MBED_SUCCESS on success. MBED_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT in case of invalid index
bool mbed_get_error_in_progress ( void  )

Returns whether we are processing a fatal mbed error.

Returns
bool Whether a fatal error has occurred.
mbed_error_status_t mbed_get_first_error ( void  )

Returns the first system error reported.

Returns
mbed_error_status_t code logged for the first error or MBED_SUCCESS if no errors are logged.
mbed_error_status_t mbed_get_first_error_info ( mbed_error_ctx error_info)

Reads the first error context information captured.

Parameters
error_infoThis is the mbed_error_context info captured as part of the first mbed_error call. The caller should pass a pointer to mbed_error_context struct allocated by the caller.
Returns
0 or MBED_SUCCESS on success. MBED_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT in case of invalid index
mbed_error_status_t mbed_get_last_error ( void  )

Returns the most recent system error reported.

Returns
mbed_error_status_t code logged for the last error or MBED_SUCCESS if no errors are logged.
mbed_error_status_t mbed_get_last_error_info ( mbed_error_ctx error_info)

Reads the last error context information captured.

Parameters
error_infoThis is the mbed_error_context info captured as part of the last mbed_error call. The caller should pass a pointer to mbed_error_context struct allocated by the caller.
Returns
0 or MBED_ERROR_SUCCESS on success. MBED_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT in case of invalid index
mbed_error_status_t mbed_get_reboot_error_info ( mbed_error_ctx error_info)

Call this function to retrieve the error context after a fatal error which triggered a system reboot.

The function retrieves the error context stored in crash-report ram area which is preserved over reboot.

Parameters
error_infoPointer to mbed_error_ctx struct allocated by the caller. This is the mbed_error_ctx info captured as part of the fatal error which triggered the reboot.
Returns
0 or MBED_SUCCESS on success. MBED_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT in case of invalid error_info pointer MBED_ERROR_ITEM_NOT_FOUND if no reboot context is currently captured by the system

Note
Filesystem support is required in order for this function to work.
mbed_error_status_t mbed_set_error_hook ( mbed_error_hook_t  custom_error_hook)

Registers an application defined error callback with the error handling system.

This function will be called with error context info whenever system handles a mbed_error/mbed_warning call NOTE: This function should be implemented for re-entrancy as multiple threads may invoke mbed_error which may cause error hook to be called.

3 }
4 
5 mbed_set_error_hook( my_custom_error_hook )
Note
The erro hook function implementation should be re-entrant.
mbed_error_status_t mbed_warning ( mbed_error_status_t  error_status,
const char *  error_msg,
