Hi,

I noticed an issue in a board file at the weekend whereby it doesn’t reboot the module after flashing it, it’s a quick fix and I can submit a PR but wanted to know how to deal with applying it for all versions of zephyr. Since there’s the 1.14 branch, 2.0 branch, 2.1 branch and master – do I submit one PR per branch? Or just one for e.g. 1.14 and it gets propagated through?
Thanks,
Jamie

Hi Thomas,

 

Could it be that your /usr/bin/python is not the same python you used to install west? i.e. do you have multiple python installations on your system?

 

$ cat `which west` | grep '#!'

 

In my case this yields:

#!/usr/bin/python3

 

which matches my:

 

Found PythonInterp: /usr/bin/python3

I'm just starting up my IAR porting effort again and thought I would just build a simple out of the box project with the standard tools, but I'm immediately running into issues.

Hi All,

Here i'm facing the issue even after using the full UART (Tx, Rx, RTS, CTS).
These 4 pins are connected & configured from both (i.MX6UL & nrf52840_pca10056).

Note : nrf52840 chip is flashed with HCI_UART sample app of zephyr. In that i have configured 4 pins and make HWFC enable from nrf5.conf file.

Ans still i'm not facing this issue continuously. Lets say i'm keeping beacon scanning on for 4-5 hours then its working fine. It crashes when i keep it running for 2-3 days.

Thanks,
Mayank

Hi Vinayak

> A btmon log would help identify the reason for disconnection.

I have uploaded the 2 logs here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/d2yurf6nxee9wk0/btmon_logs.zip?dl=0

The Zephyr one has quite a lot at the beginning before I made the connection. Here is one of the disconnect events from the zephyr log file:

< HCI Command: Disconnect (0x01|0x0006) plen 3           #624 [hci0] 292.906310

        Handle: 0

Yes, that is what it is, apologies:

> ACL Data RX: Handle 0 flags 0x02 dlen 16                #179 [hci0] 69.454378

      LE L2CAP: Connection Parameter Update Request (0x12) ident 2 len 8

Hi Vinayak

I gave it a try this morning with the latest master build of zephyr using the HCI_USB on an nrf52840_pca10059 dongle and I don’t get the errors/timeout issues as I save previously when I tested, however, GATT is unusable from bluetoothctl on linux (BlueZ 5.50). With the zephyr dongle, the device connects, seems to fail a connection parameter updates and disconnects – I am unable to list any details from the GATT server on the remote device (nothing comes through automatically and in the gatt menu, list-attributes seemingly does nothing). In comparison with a non-zephyr (cypress) based USB HCI dongle, it connects and instantly lists the GATT table, the connection parameter update still fails but even minutes later I am still connected to the remote device.

When I tested previously with a UART, it was with flow hardware control wired up to the FTDI chip. If zephyr was set to use it or not I cannot recall (it would have been the default for the HCI_UART example).

Thanks,

Jamie

Hi Carles,

I was assuming it was aimed at both of us, I’m not sure about what hardware they’re using. I’ll give it a try tomorrow with the hardware I have and see if it’s working with the latest branch of zephyr.

Thanks,

Jamie
