Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

The problem is that the toolchain does not include the 'cgcc' executable, which is used by sparse. If you were using Debian or Ubuntu, you could simply install 'cgcc' using the command: $ sudo apt install sparse. However, the executable doesn't seem to be available on Windows. A possible workaround is to make a copy of the /ncs/toolchains/1f9b40e71a/opt/zephyr-sdk/arm-zephyr-eabi/bin/arm-zephyr-eabi-gcc.exe file. Rename this copy to cgcc.exe and place it in the same directory. This workaround produces fewer warnings when I tried it here, though.

I will ask internally if it would be possible to have sparse support included in our toolchain.

Is this a simple thing for people to get working? On a project which builds properly for me on the command line, adding the command

-- -DZEPHYR_SCA_VARIANT=sparse

Causes errors similar to what others have observed.

The issue looks to be

Could not find SPARSE_COMPILER using the following names: cgcc

The command project is started using the Toolchain Manager then open command prompt option with the V2.4.0.SDK which is what we are using. Does an alternative compiler need to be installed other then what the tool chain manger installs? Does the command to build need to be changed?

Thank you for any help.

Thanks for suggestion. I will back with outcome in next week 🙂

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

Vidar Berg — Tue, 03 Jan 2023 07:59:56 GMT

I suggest you replace the nrfx_gpiote_in_init() init call with nrfx_gpiote_input_configure() as in this commit: https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/commit/c7e4d23c5d96421feb824ce2b9172f18b7946398. The error you got may be related to the changes made between nrfx v2.5.0 (NCS 1.8.0) and nrfx 2.10.0

The biggest change going from 1.8.0 to 2.2.0 is probably the introduction of Pin Control: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/migration/migration_guide_1.x_to_2.x.html#pin-control-transition

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

trafficode — Mon, 02 Jan 2023 14:52:36 GMT

Works as expected. Perfectly 🙂 My next task for close future is to migrate from NCS 1.8.0 to 2.2.0. I tried just do it and it isn't work as I expected. I mean there was some problem with memory managements in gpio configuration, build success but function nrfx_gpiote_in_init didn't return NRFX_SUCCESS. I didn't went depper to that, I plan to do it in next week. Is that known problem or there is need much more information to tell something?

It is currently not possible to change the location of the build folder in vs code, unfortunately.

[quote user="trafficode"]One more question... Is it possible to automatically run "Reset board" command after "Flash" operation... I can see that reset is done using reset pin, but I'm using reset pin as gpio.[/quote]

Yes, you can add the --softreset option to your board file as described here: Enabling pin reset. Is still active even with CONFIG_GPIO_AS_PINRESET=n . This will change the default reset type from pinreset to softreset.

I'm using separate directory for build output. This directory is placed in RAM memory to make my ssd live longer.

As the NCS toolchain worked for me and the others in this thread, I thought it was worth a try. It can be installed via the terminal too (with nRF Util). Anyway, if we take a step back and look at the actual error message, we can see that the build is failing because CMake is unable to locate the "cgcc" executable:

My goal is to integrate static code analyse with bitbucket's pipline. I can't imagine how to do that in different than command line way... So even it will work with nRF Connect SDK for desktop, that won't be siutable solution for me... Whole process has to be scripted.

If it is possible, can You try the same as I did with podman ubuntu image...? It takes 20 minutes... In diffrent way I think we can spend next three monts here... Or maybe should I try some other way of technical support...? Can You give me some other options?

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

Vidar Berg — Wed, 21 Dec 2022 11:23:07 GMT

It looks like we are doing the same, so I'm not sure why we end up with different results. Would you mind testing the same with the NCS toolchain (installed via the app mentioned here: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/gs_assistant.html)?

Just remember to open the terminal via the toolchain manager app:

trafficode , did you make the symlink as I suggested?

Aleksa , our SDK toolchain includes the zephyr SDK in addition to other dependencies such as python, git and west. The easiest way to use this toolchain is to open the terminal via the toolchain manager app. This will update your env. variable with the paths defined in /ncs/toolchains/v2.2.0/environment.json

Edit: I see now that you created the symlink. Can you echo REAL_CC to confirm it's set correctly?

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

Aleksa — Wed, 14 Dec 2022 16:18:09 GMT

This was the only command that I've had to run (no symlink):

export REAL_CC=/home/aleksa/zephyr-sdk-0.15.1/arm-zephyr-eabi/bin/arm-zephyr-eabi-gcc

A bit off-topic:
I use manual installation instructions for the NCS since the toolchain manager didn't use to work for Linux. However, I was unable to set build up manually for v2.2.0, without getting the tools from the toolchain manager.

Now I'm a bit confused with all the tools since I have both the zephyr v0.15.1 toolchain and the NCS toolchain. Not sure how all of it works together.

This is my output when I run the same build command as yours:

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

Vidar Berg — Wed, 14 Dec 2022 15:58:01 GMT

Thanks for confirming that it worked. But when you say it worked out of the box, do you mean that you did not have to make a symlink for cgcc either?

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

Aleksa — Wed, 14 Dec 2022 15:30:41 GMT

It works now on my end, my system had some unrelated issues.

Sparse works with ncs v2.2.0 out of the box, no need to cherry-pick the specified commit.

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

Vidar Berg — Wed, 14 Dec 2022 13:13:40 GMT

trafficode , please "cherry-pick" the commit linked to below as it was not included in SDK 2.1.0. This should fix the "toolchain not found" error you encountered.

https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/commit/3ebb18b882634be29955a52ea70cd59f634492c1

Aleksa , I was not able to reproduce this here. Below is from my terminal when I tried to build the blinky sample with sparse. Could you try to repeat these steps on your end to see if you get the same result? Notice I had to make a symlink for cgcc as cgcc is not included in the ARM toolchain.

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

trafficode — Wed, 14 Dec 2022 07:13:46 GMT

The case is quite urgent, can I ask about some answer...?

RE: Static code analyze tools for NRF Connect SDK

Aleksa — Mon, 12 Dec 2022 16:35:36 GMT

I have issues with static analysis too. Currently using ncs v2.2.0. I get this error:

The only way to override its 'cc' default when cross-compiling with sparse
is unfortunately an environment variable. So you _must_ set REAL_CC at
both configuration time and build time to:
${HOME}/zephyr-sdk-0.15.1/arm-zephyr-eabi/bin/arm-zephyr-eabi-gcc

I've tried setting REAL_CC in bash to the specified value, but the error stays the same.

I tried to reinstall all on other user and situation is exactly the same...
