Three errors found from SDK15.2.0

[Pertti Kasanen]

The file components/libraries/timer/app_timer_freertos.c does not have the function app_timer_cnt_get() defined. Compiling libraries that require it (like external/lwip/src/port/nrf_platform_port.c) fails when using FreeRTOS.

Two simple source code problems discovered from the new SDK when enabling commissioning and compiling with -DCOMMISSIONING_ENABLED

There seems to be a ending parenthesis missing from ble_ncfgs.c line 503:

            UNUSED_RETURN_VALUE(sd_ble_gap_phy_update(p_ble_evt->evt.gap_evt.conn_handle, &phys);

The file ipv6_medium_ble.c needed an additional header to compile (external Makefile project, gcc)

#include "app_error.h"

With these changes I was able to proceed.

Hi Pertti,

Thank you for reporting. Our SDK team has now been made aware of these issues.

Hello!

Can you suggest a workaround for app_timer_cnt_get() missing in the meantime.
I'm using it in an existing application that I'm migrating to FreeRTOS on 15.2...

Any help would be appreciated

BTW, I thought of using this:
curr_ticks = NRF_RTC1->COUNTER;

instead of 

curr_ticks = app_timer_cnt_get();

But I'm not sure it's the right way to go...

Hi Eliav,

My bad, I didn't answered the initial question in your post. In freeRTOS you need to call xTaskGetTickCount instead, or xTaskGetTickCountFromISR if you are using ISR. We don't use app_timer_cnt_get() with freeRTOS.

You can put the following wrapper in app_timer_freertos.c as a workaround:

uint32_t app_timer_cnt_get(void)
{
    if (__get_IPSR() != 0)
    {
        // inside ISR
        return (uint32_t)xTaskGetTickCountFromISR();
    }
    else
    {
        return (uint32_t)xTaskGetTickCount();
    }
} 

Best Regards,
