modifying nrf_spim p10056 to a p10056e build


I am having quite a frustrating time trying to make SPI drivers compile into a 52811 project I already started, so I thought I'd back off, and try to just get an SPI example project running (simulated) on the 52840-DK 

Of course there are exactly zero example projects for SPI that are even supplied in the SDK to target 52811 in emulated mode on a 52840-DK (Not a great look...) so I've jumped in to modify nrf_spim for p10056 into p10056e.

now first up, this example uses SPI instance 3 while the 52811 only has instances 0 and 1... so I modified this in the 52840 project, and got that at least compiling... (mod sdk_config.h to target instance 1 and turn off extended features.., them modified main.c to call for instance 0 instead of 3, and not use the dcx version of the transfer function and comment out references to extended features in the peripheral setup... ) all good - that compiles. I also modified the example to use port pins that actually exist on the 52811 (and are the actual pins I want to use on the custom board some day when I'm no longer stuck on such a basic fundamental simple thing as compiling an example project form the SDK for such a simple commonly usef peripheral as SPI)

Then to do the compile target transfer... I tried to follow the project migration instructions from nordic, and think I did OK (discovered a whole pile of things for Segger Embedded Studio project migration that are completely missed in the official migration instructions... like the whole soft FPU, linker heap size, stack size, etc -  but hey at least the differences were in existing projects that had 10056 and 10056e targets available so that was something!) 

But now I'm stuck with some complaint about "BSP_BUTTON_ACTION_LONG_PUSH" not being defined in bsp.c, this is caused because of something called BSP_DEFINES_ONLY being set to 1 somewhere (segger embedded studio "go to definition" function  can't find it, but hey... the compiler and the live code highlighter sure can!), which causes the button action define I'm missing to never be made... BUT different rules in a section of bsp.c cause code that relies on that define to be enabled... hence the fail to compile....  I can go in and modify the preprocessor commands so that the problematic code lines also get killed when the define they are referencing gets killed, but then I get more flow-on errors in bsp.c

And with this, quite frankly, I'm not convinced now that it's even possible to target an SPI example project port to either a real 52811 or an emulated one on the SDK.. at least without some surgery inside the SDK. Which makes me wonder if nordic themselves, letalone anyone else, has even used the SPI peripherals in a 52811 yet... 

So anyway - if you take this attached stuff and drop it into SDK15.3/examples/peripheral/nfx_spim then load up the project with segger embedded studio, you can also have all the fun I'm having... I'd be very happy to see an example of an SPI peripheral master being configured to run on an 82511 (or at least emulated!) if anyone can see something I might have missed?

  • FYI... just modified a TWI example project from scratch to work for emulated 52811 on 52840-DK, and had exactly the same problem.  (project needs TWI too, and I wanted a sanity check that i hadn't made a mistake in translating the Segger Embedded Studio project file)

    Also, note that if I continue to hack bsp.c so it at least compiles (putting in the same rules to block out code that depends on that define, as the define has!) the next problem I get is that the linker doesn't link, because I get a multiple definitions of UARTE0_UART0_IRQHandler

    Here's the hacked bsp.c file from the SDK that gets me to the definition collision for the linker, in both the TWI example port I'm trying to do, and the SPI example port I was trying to do yesterday.

  • Failing an actual resolution to this exact issue... is there any recommended approach for just throwing out the SDK completely (or partially?) and writing my own drivers for the peripherals I need, while still being able to configure and use a softdevice, and not stepping on any shared resource requirement's toes?

  • Hi,

    I tested porting the nrfx_spim example to pca10056e and I did not face any BSP related errors, however, I used a different approach than you did. I copied the pca10056e projects from uart example into nrfx_spim example, copied sdk_config from pca10056 directory into pca10056e directory, and added the missing source files required by the nrfx_spim example. I also face the multiple UART handler error, but this can easily be fixed by setting NRFX_PRS_BOX_2_ENABLED to 1 in your sdk_config.h file (fewer peripheral instances on nRF52811 cause less required resource sharing boxes, in nRF52811 box 2 is used for UART/UARTE, while box 4 is used in nRF52840).

    Attached project: nrfx_spim_pca10056e.zip

    Best regards,
    Jørgen

  • thanks for the answer..

    When I get some time, I'd like to dig into what the difference is between the config for a uart project and the blinky project for the same target, I'm sure it'll be instructive to see what difference makes some defines for the bsp button handling code fall over in a screaming heap.

    I had a quick search, but haven't been able to find much info on what these PRS_BOX values even mean? letalone why I need to set one of these for a particular chip but can't for another. the SDK help files for the whole PRS are particularly frustrating in describing each setting as...  itself..... 

    Anyway - since asking this question, I decided that the 52811 isn't for this project.

    Having no room to compile a debug version of the firmware, before I had even started any dev beyond configuring some on chip peripherals and the BLE radio from a sample skeleton project that does nothing....... well, that seems to be asking for trouble. 

    I've got an nRF52-DK and some eval boards for the parts the custom board was using, and now I'm progressing on the 52832...  

  • I agree that the PRS module is not very well documented. You can see which box is used for sharing witch peripheral, for each chip, in the nrfx_prs.h header file.
