Briefly summarize the issue being raised
MQTT is unable to connection to AWS endpoint with error occurring at DNS lookup. Similar to issue #936. Error does not occur with the same endpoint link for connection over WiFi.

Describe the desired outcome
Successful MQTT Ethernet connection to AWS endpoint without DNS error. Below shows the intended result using a WiFi module instead of connection over Ethernet:

[AWS WIFI] WINC1500 WIFI: DNS lookup:
Host:       a1c29udxup0qn9-ats.iot.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com

Despite attempts at modifying the link to produce a different result the same DNS server address is always given:

Code to reproduce bug
The following is where the code throws the DNS error within the iot_network_afr.c file:

/* Clear the connection information. */
    ( void ) memset( pNewNetworkConnection, 0x00, sizeof( _networkConnection_t ) );

    /* Create a new TCP socket. */
    tcpSocket = SOCKETS_Socket( SOCKETS_AF_INET,
                                SOCKETS_SOCK_STREAM,
                                SOCKETS_IPPROTO_TCP );

    if( tcpSocket == SOCKETS_INVALID_SOCKET )
    {
        IotLogError( "Failed to create new socket." );
        IOT_SET_AND_GOTO_CLEANUP( IOT_NETWORK_SYSTEM_ERROR );
    }

    /* Set up connection encryption if credentials are provided. */
    if( pAfrCredentials != NULL )
    {
        status = _tlsSetup( pAfrCredentials, tcpSocket, pServerInfo->pHostName, hostnameLength );

        if( status != IOT_NETWORK_SUCCESS )
        {
            IOT_GOTO_CLEANUP();
        }
    }

    /* Establish connection. */
    serverAddress.ucSocketDomain = SOCKETS_AF_INET;
    serverAddress.usPort = SOCKETS_htons( pServerInfo->port );
    serverAddress.ulAddress = SOCKETS_GetHostByName( pServerInfo->pHostName );

    /* Check for errors from DNS lookup. */
    if( serverAddress.ulAddress == 0 )
    {
        IotLogError( "Failed to resolve %s.", pServerInfo->pHostName );
        IOT_SET_AND_GOTO_CLEANUP( IOT_NETWORK_SYSTEM_ERROR );
    }

Steps already taken to overcome issue

  1. As noted in issue 936, modifying values in the FreeRTOSIPConfig.h can resolve the issue but this has not happened. The values I have set below:
#define ipconfigSOCK_DEFAULT_RECEIVE_BLOCK_TIME    pdMS_TO_TICKS( 5000 )
#define ipconfigSOCK_DEFAULT_SEND_BLOCK_TIME       pdMS_TO_TICKS( 5000 )

#define ipconfigUSE_DNS_CACHE                      ( 1 )
#define ipconfigDNS_REQUEST_ATTEMPTS               ( 3 ) // Changed from 2
  1. I have used Powershell nslookup for the ethernet connection and it returns:
PS C:\Users\User> nslookup a1c29udxup0qn9-ats.iot.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
Server:  UnKnown
Address:  192.168.0.1

          52.31.195.63
          52.210.5.189
  1. Tried modifying the link, removing -ats etc. but no change to DNS server address or response
  2. Directly connected to 2 separate routers bypassing switch
  3. Ensured WiFi build and Ethernet build used the same link variable
  4. Checked MQTT broker port was set to 8883

Is there potentially a config setting I am not configuring correctly? I feel as though if there was a router issue the WiFi MQTT would also fail.

Any help is much appreciated,
Greg

Hello @gsbwallace1996 can you capture a Wireshark log?
I am curious to know what is the value of ipconfigDNS_CACHE_NAME_LENGTH.

I am assuming that you are using FreeRTOS+TCP. Also, can you try doing a DNS lookup using SOCKETS_gethostbyname( "www.github.com" ) and see whether that succeeds?

Thanks

I would have asked for a PACP as well. Can you attach it in a ZIP file?

I am curious to know what is the value of ipconfigDNS_CACHE_NAME_LENGTH.

That is the size of the largest URL that the DNS software can handle. By default, it is 254 bytes, but your copy of FreeeRTOSIPConfig.h might define it smaller.

Note that a copy of the URL will be declared on-stack:

    char pcName[ ipconfigDNS_CACHE_NAME_LENGTH ];

... which may cost 256/4 words of stack.

Also, while debugging, it would be interesting to see the logging from FreeeRTOS+TCP: see ipconfigHAS_PRINTF and ipconfigHAS_DEBUG_PRINTF on FreeRTOS.org.

Of course it is possible the run a test without DNS, by filling in an IP-address:

-    serverAddress.ulAddress = SOCKETS_GetHostByName( pServerInfo->pHostName );
+    serverAddress.ulAddress = FreeRTOS_inet_addr_quick( 52, 213, 52, 29 );

FreeRTOS_inet_addr_quick() returns a network-endian IP-address, no worries about the endianness.

Hi @htibosch @AniruddhaKanhere,

Apologies in advance for the long post, TLDR: I actually believe this issue to now be a potential DHCP issue or general connection issue. I've put below the steps I've taken to reach that conclusion.

I can confirm that the ipconfigDNS_CACHE_NAME_LENGTH is set to 254 and I am using FreeRTOS+TCP.

Like you suggested @htibosch I done print line debugging of the lower level functions to ensure everything was passed and triggering correctly. Starting with the cache:

I redone the windows ping/ping path for the dns link and got:

I then manually altered the address and port as seen in this link just before the FreeRTOS_sendto. Tried the ping IP and a few nslookup IP addresses but no luck. Message sent but no bytes received, socket then closed. This was a bad idea as I'm sure AWS uses virtual servers which IPs change constantly:

Next thought was to use what @AniruddhaKanhere suggested but I instead used the freeRTOS example that I implemented in the high level .c file. Unfortunately, as it uses the same low level function it still produced the error:

What lead me on to the DHCP thought was the IP-task echoing the same IP address:

/* The default IP and MAC address used by the demo.  The address configuration
 * defined here will be used if ipconfigUSE_DHCP is 0, or if ipconfigUSE_DHCP is
 * 1 but a DHCP server could not be contacted.  See the online documentation for
 * more information.  In both cases the node can be discovered using
 * "ping RTOSDemo". */
static const uint8_t ucIPAddress[ 4 ] =
{
    configIP_ADDR0, //192
    configIP_ADDR1, //168
    configIP_ADDR2, //0
    configIP_ADDR3 //105
};
static const uint8_t ucNetMask[ 4 ] =
{
    configNET_MASK0, //255
    configNET_MASK1, //255
    configNET_MASK2, //255
    configNET_MASK3 //0
};
static const uint8_t ucGatewayAddress[ 4 ] =
{
    configGATEWAY_ADDR0, //192
    configGATEWAY_ADDR1, //168
    configGATEWAY_ADDR2, //0
    configGATEWAY_ADDR3 //1
};
static const uint8_t ucDNSServerAddress[ 4 ] =
{
    configDNS_SERVER_ADDR0, //208
    configDNS_SERVER_ADDR1, //67
    configDNS_SERVER_ADDR2, //222
    configDNS_SERVER_ADDR3 //222
};

Turning the DHCP off in the config hasn't yielded any result changes from using the static IP. Tried to see if the DHCP was retrieving any bytes from within the prvProcessDHCPReplies function:

	lBytes = FreeRTOS_recvfrom( xDHCPData.xDHCPSocket, ( void * ) &pucUDPPayload, 0ul, FREERTOS_ZERO_COPY, &xClient, &xClientLength );
	configPRINTF( ( "lBytes: %d\r\n", lBytes ) );
	if( lBytes > 0 )
	{
		/* Map a DHCP structure onto the received data. */
		pxDHCPMessage = ( DHCPMessage_t * ) ( pucUDPPayload );
		vTaskDelay(100);
		configPRINTF( ( "if( lBytes > 0 )\r\n" ) );
...

But no luck as return corresponds to If no bytes are received before the configured block time expires then -pdFREERTOS_ERRNO_EWOULDBLOCK (-11) is returned.

Using Wireshark in combination with a switch or directly into my laptop I attempted to see anything coming from the device. I have yet been unable to see anything for the devices static IP. I came across this link which suggests that the address 0.0.0.0 is indeed from the embedded trying to get an address in the direct connection but I not sure.

I have attached some of the wireshark files that I took and the config file.
dev_ETH_DIRECT.zip

Next steps are probably to alter the code to fire down UDP to establish data packets coming out.

Many thanks,
Greg

After you turned of your DHCP, I would expect to see packets from 192.168.0.105, but I don't see any in any of the PCAP files?

What I don't understand is the logging dnsDNS_PORT: 4, shouldn't that be either 0x3500 or 0x0035 (depending on the endianness) ?

Hardware board: STM32H743

Note that this is one of the latest ports, and you might have some start-up problems.

The most difficult things is to find the proper memory that is not cached, and that can be passed to DMA.
Please have a look at the readme.md

Have you tried the more basic things like:

  • Define a static address and try ping
  • Use DHCP and see if the works

My feeling is that not a packet reaches the wire.

WINC1500 WIFI

Just curious, are you using this in combination with a STM32H7x?
