Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Automatically Restart UHD/gr-uhd blocks

[Dan CaJacob]

I worked around a problem like this by installing an in-line power relay in my remote nodes.  Not ideal, but in some rare situations, even forcing the FPGA to reload was not successful.  Sometimes a power cycle was the only hope.

That said, I've heard some lovely things about reset commands available for the newer boards, but it's not clear to me if they are integrated into the driver.  Seems likely, though.

Very Respectfully,

I've recently received a request to have GNU Radio flowgraphs recover gracefully in the event of power glitches, or transient Ethernet anomalies that are severe enough to break the dataflow.  ie. the event should be noted, but there should be a way to re-init the USRP for continued operation with restart the .py.

I haven't really been keeping up. 

• Has there been any discussion on how we might modify gr-uhd, and maybe UHD, to allow automatic re-initialization of the USRP? 
• If not, is this a reasonable place to brainstorm on the problem? 
• Has anyone already solved this?

It doesn't seem that complex, but I'd like to pick the most straight-forward path.
