Migrating nRF53 Zigbee project to nRF54 results in ZBOSS errors

[Kampino]

Hi,

I try to migrate a working nRF53 Zigbee project from SDK 2.7 to the latest SDK and an nRF54. As described here, I also switched to Zigbee R23. The project structure is shown below.

But the build exit with the error message

C:/Users/konta/Desktop/BeeLight/firmware/ncs-zigbee/subsys/osif/zb_nrf_nvram.c:16:32: error: 'PM_ZBOSS_NVRAM_SIZE' undeclared here (not in a function); did you mean 'PM_SRAM_SIZE'?

What causes this issue and how can I fix it?

Hi,

Did you also follow the steps in the migration guides from 2.7.0 and incrementally up to 3.0.1 i.e https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/nrf/releases_and_maturity/migration_guides.html with emphasis on https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/nrf/releases_and_maturity/migration/migration_sysbuild.html if you're coming from child/parent images?

If you're unsure about the sysbuild migration, what does your project folder look like? Are you using child images or sysbuild? https://academy.nordicsemi.com/courses/nrf-connect-sdk-intermediate/lessons/lesson-8-sysbuild/topic/sysbuild-explained/ 

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi,

thanks to the answer. The project is built with Sysbuild and when removing Zigbee from the project, the build runs smoothly.

I´ve pushed the latest version of the project to my GitHub so you can see the structure:

github.com/.../firmware

Hi,

No, unfortunately not. Since there's no way for me to reproduce the issue within NCS with a DK, I'm limited in what recommendations I can give other than those initially given w.r.t migration notes. NCS 2.7.0 to NCS 3.0.0 is a big leap, so incrementally updating the features from your working application to a newer version and gradually checking that it works together with comparing any of the relevant R23 Zigbee samples with 54L15DK configuration is my best recommendation until I hear back internally.

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,

okay than I will wait a bit longer. I´ve tested it with previous SDKs and I run into the same issue. SDK 2.8.0 doesn´t work because nRF54 is missing here.

[AHaug]

Hi,

I also see that I've not yet asked you what hardware you're working with. What version is the 54L15 SoC you're using? See https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/comp_matrix_nrf54l15/page/COMP/nrf54l15/nrf54l15_ic_revision_overview.html and https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/comp_matrix_nrf54l15/page/COMP/nrf54l15/nrf54l15_nrf_connect_sdk.html for a compatibility overview

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,

I use a pre built module from Ezurio and not the blank chip. So I'm pretty sure that the chip is not an engineering sample.

Noted,

Unfortunately I don't think there's more I can do here other than suggesting things for you to look closer into. Debugging this requires getting your hands dirty and porting from a SDK version using HWm1 and child/parent images to a SDK version using hwm and sysbuild as well as migrating from a 5340 to the 54l15.

But, the errors seems to be related to this:

• Since your project comes from a 5340 project, the flash page configurations are different than for your 54l15 project
• 54L15 uses RRAM and not Flash, might be an error related to settings
• The 5340 might have custom configurations specific to that board
  • The partitioning layout might be tailored to the 5340

The best suggestion I can give you is

1. Get a sample working for the nRF54L15DK
2. Get your sample working for the nRF54L15DK
   1. Isolate if the issues are wr.t SDK versions, custom drivers, the board files or other
   2. Verify that the partitoning

Kampino said:

I haven´t tested it with a DK because I don´t have one. But the board I´ve created is based on the nRF54DK (I basically changed the name and add the Zigbee stuff to it) so I think the result should be the same. But I can test it later if you want.

W.r.t migrating a template sample from 2.7.0 to R23 and NCS v3.0.0 you can do this:

1. Create a nrf54l15dk_nrf54l15_cpuapp.overlay (copy it directly from the template sample in R23)
2. Remove this from prj.conf:
   # Enable nRF ECB driver
   CONFIG_CRYPTO=y
   CONFIG_CRYPTO_NRF_ECB=y
   CONFIG_CRYPTO_INIT_PRIORITY=80
3. Change CONFIG_ZIGBEE=y to CONFIG_ZIGBEE_ADD_ON=y

Again, apologies for not being able to point to anything specific.

Kind regards,
Andreas
