fds_gc() does not returns the FDS_EVT_GC event

[Mithilesh Yadav]

Hi,

I am storing  sensor data into flash and sending it to client when it is requested  by Indication characteristic.

I don't have any issue with reading/writing/updating the value.

When I am trying to call fds_gc() function in between data read and send to client by indication characteristic, I never get FDS_EVT_GC event and it could not remove the dirty records.

Otherwise fds_gc()  is working properly when not connected to ble with indication characteristics.

I am using SDK15 and nRF52832 mcu.

Thanks

Hi

Please check out the Garbage collection paragraph in the FDS functionality page of the SDK. It is recommended to only use garbage collection when BLE activity is low, otherwise the operation may time out and return an FDS_ERR_TIMEOUT, before the device continues normal operation. Successive calls to fds_gc will resume garbage collection.

Best regards,

Simon
