Can't run nrf_pwr_mgmt_run() or sd_ble_gap_adv_stop() without

[matthew antonelli]

Hello. Using SDK16 on my NRF52840 board

I'm stuck here on my product development - trying to make my device have longer "sleep" battery life.

when I call a simple function that tries to sleep the SD:

void bluetooth_sleep(void)
{
uint32_t err_code;
// If connected, disconnect
if (m_conn_handle != BLE_CONN_HANDLE_INVALID)
{
err_code = sd_ble_gap_disconnect(m_conn_handle, BLE_HCI_REMOTE_USER_TERMINATED_CONNECTION);}

// Stop advertising
//if (err_code != NRF_SUCCESS) {sprintf(outputString,">>ble adv stop failed\r\n");SEGGER_RTT_WriteString(0,outputString);}
//embeddedcentric.com/.../
NRF_LOG_INFO(">>attempting power management run....."); NRF_LOG_FLUSH();
nrf_pwr_mgmt_run(); // this causes an error...why?
//err_code = sd_ble_gap_adv_stop(m_conn_handle);  // this causes an error...also  so it is currently commented out

}

I assume that there is something wrong in my sdk_config.h but I don't know what.  
Has anyone else seen this problem?

Hello,

The "INVALID MEMORY ACCESS" assertion shouldn't be raised unless you write to a peripheral or memory region reserved to the Softdevice, and I don't see anything that does that in the code snippet you posted above.

To find the reason for the assert, please modify the logging in app_error_fault_handler() to print the info paramater value as shown in the screenshot below.
