SPIM4 IRQ Handler in SDK v2.7.0

[kelk]

Hello Nordic Team,

I am currently implementing low-level SPI communication using SDK v2.7.0 and nRF 5340dk . Could you please let me know the name of the IRQ handler for SPIM4?

In version 52 Board , I used the SPIM1_SPIS1_TWIM1_TWIS1_SPI1_TWI1_IRQHandler to handle SPI1 interrupts, but I couldn’t find the corresponding handler for SPIM4 in this version.

Looking forward to your guidance.

Best regards,
kelk.

Hello,

The SPIM4 instance differs from the other SPIM instances in that it is not shared with any other peripherals. Therefore it has its own IRQ number assigned to it. The handler is named  'SPIM4_IRQHandler'

https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/hal_nordic/blob/0f462f62cc0c347303e67f733fef369bb411c733/nrfx/mdk/nrf5340_application.h#L79 

Best regards,

Vidar

Hello Vidar,

Thank you for your prompt response.

Firstly, the "nrf5340_application.h" file I have differs from the one in the link you provided. For instance, it does not include the SPIM2_SPIS2_TWIM2_TWIS2_UARTE2_IRQn and SPIM1_SPIS1_TWIM1_TWIS1_UARTE1_IRQn . it just encludes the SPIM4_IRQn.

Secondly, I attempted to use SPIM4_IRQHandler, but encountered the following error:

[00:00:07.623,840] <err> os: Unhandled IRQn: 10
[00:00:07.623,870] <err> os: >>> ZEPHYR FATAL ERROR 1: Unhandled interrupt on CPU 0
[00:00:07.623,901] <err> os: Current thread: 0x20000708 (unknown)
[00:00:07.652,618] <err> os: Halting system

Hello,

SPIM1_SPIS1_TWIM1_TWIS1_UARTE1_IRQn is now named SERIAL_IRQn:

Did you use the IRQ_CONNECT() macro to connect the IRQ to the interrupt handler? https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/ade49f081df6fab0db6288bad25be4f5eff7ef3a/samples/boards/nrf/nrfx/src/main.c#L50

hello,

i used this:

#define SPIM_INST_IDX 4
 
    IRQ_CONNECT(NRFX_IRQ_NUMBER_GET(NRF_SPIM_INST_GET(SPIM_INST_IDX)), IRQ_PRIO_LOWEST,
                NRFX_SPIM_INST_HANDLER_GET(SPIM_INST_IDX), 0, 0);
    
  

   

and i received this Error:

This assert is raised if no callback is registered: https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/nrfx/blob/4fb7ccb30a1db35c1cf48f1eac87310125ba1072/drivers/src/nrfx_spim.c#L948.  I don't know if you are using the nrfx_spim driver or writing your own.
