Zephyr and OpenThread join support

Louis

While attempting to join a network formed by the OpenThread border router reference implementation and an external commissioner using the Android app, my zephyr end device (based on the lwm2m client sample) ends up failing an assertion:

assertion "awaited_property == AWAITED_PROPERTY_NONE" failed: file "WEST_TOPDIR/zephyr/modules/hal_nordic/nrf_802154/serialization/platform/nrf_802154_spinel_response_notifier.c", line 63, function: nrf_802154_spinel_response_notifier_lock_before_request

I'm not sure I'm doing this properly. CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_CUSTOM_PARAMETERS has to be set in order to be able to link the binary which I think is a little suspicious and not documented as far as I know:

CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_JOINER=y
CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_CUSTOM_PARAMETERS="OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_JOINER_ENABLE=1"
CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_JOINER_AUTOSTART=y
CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_JOINER_PSKD="J01NU5"
CONFIG_MBEDTLS_HEAP_SIZE=10240

    Hello, Louis!

    Are you using Zephyr standalone or the nRF Connect SDK, based on Zephyr? In the latter we provide a OpenThread configuration guide and samples that should be more straightforward to setup with our devices. 

    I will ask the developers about the issue you're seeing here.

    Best regards,
    Carl Richard

    Thanks,

    I'm using the nRF SDK. I tried to add join support to the cli sample. Configuring the application with OPENTHREAD_JOINER_AUTOSTART didin't do anything (no failed assertion but no join either). So I added a "join button" (project here) and ended up with the same failed assertion.

    Hello again!

    Apologies for the delayed answer. Your sample functions when I compile it here, and looking at your autoconf.h it seems like some key configurations are missing somehow. Most notable CONFIG_NRF_802154_SOURCE_NRFXLIB. Could you share your build log from building the cli sample?

    And just to make sure, you have not changed <zephyr_base>/nrf/samples/openthread/common/overlay-ot-defaults.conf right?

    Best regards,
    Carl Richard

    Hi Carl,

    I confirm that nothing from the zephyr base was changed. Here's the output of the log:

    Hi again!

    Thanks. This seems to may be an issue with the build environment, as the configuration is incomplete. Could you do the following before building again and see if that makes any difference:

    cd <ncs_root>/nrf
git pull
west update

    I.e. moving to the newest master and updating the whole SDK. There have been some changes to various thread related components lately, so I want to make sure that they are there. Please report back if you see any errors/warnings during the updating process.

    Best regards,
    Carl Richard

    Just got back from the developers that the issue could be related to an issue fixed by this pull request. Could you try to see if applying it as a patch makes any difference?

    Best regards,
    Carl Richard

    Unfortunately still the same result with the latest version. Note that nrf is at the same level as $ZEPHYR_BASE on my install, not under it which seems consistent with what I see here.
