ERROR: No CMD handler!

[Gerry]

Hi,

I added DFU functionality to my Mesh-client application as shown in your DFU-example.

At startup I get this log message:

nrf_mesh_dfu.c,  904, ERROR: No CMD handler!

coming from here:

uint32_t nrf_mesh_dfu_cmd_send(bl_cmd_t* p_cmd)
{
    if (m_cmd_handler == NULL)
    {
        __LOG(LOG_SRC_DFU, LOG_LEVEL_ERROR, "ERROR: No CMD handler!\n");
        return NRF_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED;
    }
...
}

Can someone please tell me, what I'm doing wrong here?

(using Mesh SDK 3.1.0 and SDK 15.2)

Regards

Gerry

Hello Gerry,

Well, it seems like you are missing the CMD handler.

In the DFU example in the Mesh SDK, this is typically set in main()->initialize()->mesh_stack_init()->nrf_mesh_init()->nrf_mesh_dfu_init()->dfu_cmd_handler_set().

Does this get called in your project?

BR,

Edvin

Hi Edvin

I found the place, thanks. Put a breakpoint there. The function is called (Line 643 of nrf_mesh_dfu.c). The return value is NRF_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED. Seems to be a problem with BOOTLOADERADDR(). Do I have to set the address in NRF_UICR->NRFFW[0] manually?

Using Segger Studio. Same message, when I program the device with my script:

cd pc-nrfutil-mesh_dfu
cd dfu
set /a "prior_version=%client_version%-1"
 (
   echo {
   echo     "bootloader_config": {
   echo        "bootloader_id": 1,
   echo        "bootloader_version": 1,
   echo        "company_id": 89,
   echo        "application_id": 1,
   echo        "application_version": %prior_version%
   echo    }
   echo }
 ) > bootloader_config_default.json
python device_page_generator.py -d nrf52840_xxAA -sd "s140_6.0.0" -o ../client.hex
cd ..
@echo:
nrfjprog --recover -f NRF52
REM use --verify to verify programming with --program
nrfjprog --eraseall
nrfjprog --program ..\..\Mesh_SDK\bin\softdevice\s140_nrf52_6.0.0_softdevice.hex --chiperase 
nrfjprog --program bootloader\mesh_bootloader_serial_gccarmemb_nrf52840_xxAA.hex 
nrfjprog --program ..\..\Source\connectivity_client\build\connectivity_client_Release\connectivity_client.hex 
nrfjprog --program client.hex 
nrfjprog --reset

Hello,

No, you shouldn't write to this address yourself. This address is written by the bootloader itself. If you program the bootloader (found in SDK_for Mesh\bin\bootloader\gccarmemb\<your suitable bootloader>.hex) this value will contain the correct data.

Can you try this?

Best regards,

Edvin

Hi,
I think, this should be done on line 22 of my script:

nrfjprog --program bootloader\mesh_bootloader_serial_gccarmemb_nrf52840_xxAA.hex

The CMD output of my script looks as follows:

Wrote device page for nrf52840_xxAA with the s140_6.0.0 SoftDevice to ../client.hex.

 So still "ERROR: No CMD handler!" Can you see, what's going wrong here?

Hello,

Can you please try to add --verify on the end of all your nrfjprog --program commands in your script?

Also, can you do a flashdump after programming your nRF?

You can use:

nrfjprog --readcode my_flash_dump.txt

And upload it here?

BR,

Edvin

Hi Edvin

Yes shure. Here the CMD-log I got and attached the flash dump:

I don't understand this. Can you try to write this in cmd:

nrfjprog --eraseall
nrfjprog --program mesh_bootloader_serial_gccarmemb_nrf52840_xxAA.hex --verify
nrfjprog --memrd 0x10001014

What does it say?

[Gerry]

This returns:

nrfjprog --eraseall
Erasing user available code and UICR flash areas.
Applying system reset.

nrfjprog --program bootloader/mesh_bootloader_serial_gccarmemb_nrf52840_xxAA.hex --verify

nrfjprog --memrd 0x10001014
0x10001014: 000F8000

Edit:

When I add the memrd to the end of my script (s. above) where also the softdevice and application is programmed, I also get 0x10001014: 000F8000
