While testing the
nfcDemo
app with a PN7160 on a custom board on which the power supply was defective, I noticed that the functiondoInitialize()
was in a dead lock.While terminating the reading thread, the function
phTmlNfc_CleanUp()
is blocked inpthread_join()
.This PR :
pthread_timedjoin_np()
pthread_cancel()
if the timed join failed.Beside this PR, another PR in the kernel driver implements optionnal timeout during the read operations.
