RE: undefined reference

An issue caused by unfortunate obfuscation choices, use of ## and so on; one reason (in my view) why the SDK was abandoned.

The likely cause of the error is "NRF_GFX_ENABLED" in sdk_config.h being '0', simply change it to '1'.

 Directory of D:\Projects\Nordic\nRF5_SDK_17.1.0_ddde560\examples\ble_central\ble_app_hrs_c\pca10040\ser_s132_hci\config
sdk_config.h
// <q> NRF_GFX_ENABLED  - nrf_gfx - GFX module
#ifndef NRF_GFX_ENABLED
#define NRF_GFX_ENABLED 0

Finding this and other similar issue can be a pain: I use a batch search script along these lines:
