tcp_mem_stats.c : FreeRTOS+TCP Memory Statistics This module can be used in any project on any platform that uses FreeRTOS+TCP. It creates an overview of the memory usage of FreeRTOS+TCP. It reports the static use of RAM, and also the dynamic usage ( heap ). It relates these numbers to the macro's defined `FreeRTOSIPConfig.h`. It writes CSV records to the logging with configPRINTF(). The resulting log can be filtered by e.g.: cat logging.txt | grep ".*TCPMemStat," | sed "s/.*TCPMemStat,//" The resulting text can be imported into any spreadsheet at cell "A1" ( top-left ): ipconfig item,Value,PerUnit,Total NUM_NETWORK_BUFFER_DESCRIPTORS,12,60,=B13*C13,Descriptors only TCP_WIN_SEG_COUNT,32,64,=B14*C14 EVENT_QUEUE_LENGTH,17,8,=B15*C15 IP_TASK_STACK_SIZE_WORDS,300,4,=B16*C16 When the CSV-records are imported at another row or column than "A1", the formulas will be incorrect. How to include 'tcp_mem_stats' into a project: ● Add tools/tcp_mem_stats.c to the sources ● Add the following lines to FreeRTOSIPConfig.h : #define ipconfigUSE_TCP_MEM_STATS ( 1 ) #define ipconfigTCP_MEM_STATS_MAX_ALLOCATION ( 128 ) #include "../tools/tcp_mem_stats.h" Later on, the module can disabled by setting `#define ipconfigUSE_TCP_MEM_STATS 0`. `ipconfigTCP_MEM_STATS_MAX_ALLOCATION` is the maximum number of objects that can be followed at any time. A socket that has 2 stream buffers counts as 3 objects ( needing 3 x 16 = 48 bytes to store their properties ). The **summary** at the bottom will only be written when `iptraceMEM_STATS_CLOSE()` is called. The application is responsible for calling `iptraceMEM_STATS_CLOSE()`. The summary at the bottom looks like this: Totals,,,=MAX(D25:D31),,=MIN(F25:F31),=MAX(G25:G31) Maximum RAM usage:,,,=SUM(D20;D32) The spreadsheet can be edited further to make estimations with different macro values.
