Undefined reference to `__device_dts_ord_139'

AnomalySmith

Hello,

I know this is a documented error but I'm still struggling to fully understand and fix this.

Context:

I'm trying to make my custom display driver working again on my project after a Zephyr (+LVGL) upgrade to 2.9.2. 

The error: 

Loading Zephyr default modules (Zephyr base).

What I've already done:

I tried to sync-up my project structure to https://github.com/nrfconnect/ncs-example-application/tree/main

I followed and check point by point https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/build/dts/troubleshooting.html

The code :

You can find the sanitized project and build folder here

I seek your help because I'm on it for a while now and I've run out of ideas.

Edit: I added more content on the github's build folder content. 

 

Thanks !

    After hours of fails and retries, I got rid of this error by loading my driver C file inside the 

    target_sources(app PRIVATE
    instead of loading its parent directoy with 

    add_subdirectory()

    in the root CMakeLists.txt file.

    Any idea why ? May it be somehow related to macro expansion order ?

    Hi,

    I think what happened might be that now the build is properly being integrated.

    i.e., by loading the driver C file directly inside the target_sources(....) you explicitly made sure that your driver's object file which is created, gets compiled into the app/libapp.a

    So this could be why your undefined reference vanished. Earlier, either you created a plain CMake lib, or maybe you did not mention any sources or there might have been some issue because of the library's scope (this is most likely, because if when CMake runs, the library is not the one that you require, say, drivers_dsplay, then this could result in error).
