Hello, first I have to clarify who built the firmware.
I'm not really involved in the development of the system. I'm just responsible for the test design of the system.
I increased the mbox_wait_ack to 10 seconds but there are still the same errors. Do you know another way to disable the IMC?
Then I'm very curious about Rudolf's ideas.
Best regards Markus_T

Can you tell us more about your system's firmware?
=>What kind of information do you mean concretely?
Who build it and can you talk to them?
Should the IMC be active and responsive?
=>I'm not sure what the consequence is in detail when the IMC is inactive. But I gues it doesn't need to be active.
Oh, I was talking about the expectation you have about the state of the IMC assuming that you are somewhat involved in the development of the system (aren't you?). The IMC does not need to be active for a working system (AFAIK), but to me it seems like it is active but somewhat misconfigured. Let's see what Rudolf says about it. He know it way better than me.
Rudolf: Let's assume the IMC is set up but does not respond in time (btw I guess a longer timeout won't help?
=>Can you please tell me where I can increase this time?
In my version of the patch you need to increase the initial value of 'i' in mbox_wait_ack. Similar in Rudolf's version, but it counts up instead. The value is in milliseconds.
