Infinite Timeout

[suchao]

I was told that I can enable infinite timeout using following commands:

$ sudo service nvargus-daemon stop
$ sudo enableCamInfiniteTimeout=1 nvargus-daemon

But in my system, there is no service command. May I ask if there is another way to enable infinite timeout?

hello suchao,

may I double confirm which Jetpack release version you’re working with?
besides,
you may refer to Topic 284939 to apply pre-built update to enable infinite timeout property on JP-5.1.3/r35.5.0

The version I am using is r35.4.1

~# cat /etc/nv_tegra_release
# R35 (release), REVISION: 4.1, GCID: 33958178, BOARD: t186ref, EABI: aarch64, DATE: Tue Aug  1 19:57:35 UTC 2023

I created my own application to use Libargus API. After I replaced libnvscf.so file with the patch, the createCaptureSession function failed with STATUS_INVALID_SETTINGS returned status. But the old libnvscf.so file works fine. Following is the difference in the log when I tried both .so files.

1. With old libnvscf.so file, which is working, I got following messages.

SCF: Error BadValue: NvPHSSendThroughputHints (in src/common/CameraPowerHint.cpp, function sendCameraPowerHint(), line 56)
CAM: serial no file already exists, skips storing again
(Argus) Error InvalidState: Unknown stream deleted. (in src/api/CaptureSessionImpl.cpp, function outputStreamDeleted(), line 1104)

2. With new libnvscf.so file coming from your patch, I got following messages.

Error: Argus device initialization failed with message: Failed to configure the Argus device. Detailed message: Failed to initialize the capture session and request. Detailed message: Failed to create capture session, and status: -2, err: -1

Above message is what I added in my application to track the errors. status: -2 is STATUS_INVALID_SETTINGS = 2 error.

Is there any change in terms of creating the capture session? The code related to the creation of the capture session is as follows.

// Get camera provider
// Based on the badge information, get the camera device (m_cameraDevice)

    // Create the capture session
    Argus::Status argus_status;
    m_captureSession = Argus::UniqueObj<Argus::CaptureSession>(
        i_camera_provider->createCaptureSession(m_cameraDevice, &argus_status));
    if (argus_status != Argus::STATUS_OK) {
        return { -argus_status, -1, "Failed to create capture session" };
    }

hello suchao,

as you can see, Topic 284939, it’s pre-built update based-on JP-5.1.3/r35.5.0
please moving to the latest JP-5 release version if that’s possible.
