Hello,
We have nRF52832 in production on a custom board. Recently, we created a new functionality with the aim to handle flash more efficiently, and to avoid the case where peer manager will not have enough space and it will erase bonds. So, every time before saving any kind of record, words_used + new record size is checked that is less than the determined limit and then saving in flash is allowed. We also call two times a day the fds_gc, as long as there is no BLE connection at the time.
The problem is that from many clients devices we receive logs that we have set in order to track gc behaviour. This kind of log is set after FDS_EVT_GC and if this event returns NRF_SUCCESS. In this case we call fds_stat to witness the result of garbage collector, but unfortunately, it returns the same number of freeable words at every gc call. We have this log from many users for days, and we do not know why this happens, and why it doesn't delete all freeable words but still returns nrf_success?
When I say the same number I mean same number again and again for each user, e.g. one user has 1458, another 2012, etc.
Why does this happen?
How can we solve this problem?
Thank you in advance.
