Hello everybody
I hit another issue with sd_ble_gap_disconnect.
The short story is this one. I want the peripheral to initiate a disconnect if no activity for a predefined interval. At this moment, for test purpose only, i just implemented a timer which triggers sd_ble_gap_disconnect 5sec after the connect event. So i have my application running on a 52810 board. I use nrfConnect to connect to the device and the device triggers disconnect 5 sec after. After disconnect event i reconnect manually again to the device in nrfConnect. The log captured in the console shows like this
[00:00:00.000,000] <info> app_timer: RTC: initialized.

As you can see there is a first Disconnect event but the second one is missing because the device crashes and it shows the error report with error code = 8 which is invalid parameters
Digging further, the crash happens in in send_update_request when calling sd_ble_gap_conn_param_update because the second parameter p_new_conn_params is totaly invalid. Soething happen when pushet to the stack. SP = 20005f40 which is reasonable
In caller function update_timeout_handler the p_instance variable has valid values, but somehow when calling send_update_request the address is changed from 20002d8c+8 (how it is shown in update_timeout_handler) to 3ff00000 and this wrong value is pushed on the stack
Here is the call stack (hope you can access the link)
the way i call sd_ble_gap_disconnect is this one:
- i instantiated a timer in main with time_ms = 5000
const nrf_drv_timer_t INACTIVITYTIMER = NRF_DRV_TIMER_INSTANCE(1); ... nrf_drv_timer_config_t timer_cfg = NRF_DRV_TIMER_DEFAULT_CONFIG; err_code = nrf_drv_timer_init(&INACTIVITYTIMER, &timer_cfg, inactivity_timer_evt_handler); ... time_ticks = nrf_drv_timer_ms_to_ticks(&INACTIVITYTIMER, time_ms); nrf_drv_timer_extended_compare(&INACTIVITYTIMER, NRF_TIMER_CC_CHANNEL0, time_ticks, NRF_TIMER_SHORT_COMPARE0_CLEAR_MASK, true);
In ble_evt_handler on connect/disconnect events i start/stop the timer
switch (p_ble_evt->header.evt_id)
{
case BLE_GAP_EVT_DISCONNECTED:
NRF_LOG_INFO("Disconnected.");
err_code = bsp_indication_set(BSP_INDICATE_DISCONNECTED);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
nrf_drv_timer_disable(&INACTIVITYTIMER);
board_state = DISCONNECTED;
break;
case BLE_GAP_EVT_CONNECTED:
NRF_LOG_INFO("Connected.");
err_code = bsp_indication_set(BSP_INDICATE_CONNECTED);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
m_conn_handle = p_ble_evt->evt.gap_evt.conn_handle;
err_code = nrf_ble_qwr_conn_handle_assign(&m_qwr, m_conn_handle);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
nrf_drv_timer_enable(&INACTIVITYTIMER);
board_state = CONNECTED;
break;
And finally in the timer callback, sd_ble_gap_disconnect is invoked
switch (event_type)
{
case NRF_TIMER_EVENT_COMPARE0:
if (board_state == CONNECTED && m_conn_handle != BLE_CONN_HANDLE_INVALID)
{
sd_ble_gap_disconnect(m_conn_handle, BLE_HCI_REMOTE_USER_TERMINATED_CONNECTION);
}
The environment i use is segger studio and sdk 17.02
The issue happens randomly after 2 to 20 manual reconnects
What am i doing wrong?
