RE: CONTAINER_OF_VALIDATE fails for UART central sample

Hi Jørgen,

I am using nRF Connect SDK, so I'm scratching my head as to why I ended up with Zephyr 3.5.x in my T2 topology. I removed all folders except for my manifest repo and ran west update to download everything again. Now it builds fine again. Just to make sure I don't run into any unexpected things with uprevs, I fixed NCS version to 2.5.0 in my west.yml file.

Thanks for helping still, I thought I saw somewhere that NCS 2.5.X supported Zephyr 3.5.x as well, but I must've misread. Doing some experiments on my end showed that indeed running even the latest NCS 2.5.2 still uses 3.4.99 for Zephyr.

Hi,

[quote user=""]I must have recently updated the version of Zephyr in my workspace to 3.5 from 3.4 because all of a sudden I was getting build errors specifically for the use of CONTAINER_OF in the uart_cb function which is pretty much a copy from the sample. After digging around, I noticed that the util.h file which defines the CONTAINER_OF macro was changed between 3.4 and 3.5 and it is specifically the newly added CONTAINER_OF_VALIDATE which is failing.[/quote]

Are you using nRF Connect SDK or vanilla Zephyr?

I also can't see any reason this validation should fail with the code. It looks like both are uint8_t pointer.

Since nRF Connect SDK is still using Zephyr 3.4.x, maybe you can ask this question to upstream Zephyr?

Best regards,
Jørgen
