OK.Thanks.

I found that you can specify multiple files in the CONF_FILE variable.

Hi,

[quote user="loquat"]I want to set priority following,
1.prj.conf
2.CMakeLists.txt
3. Kconfig "default" keyword.[/quote]

Then you set it like I showed in the edited initial response:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.20.0)

find_package(Zephyr REQUIRED HINTS $ENV{ZEPHYR_BASE})

...

set(CONFIG_NRFX_GPIOTE_NUM_OF_EVT_HANDLERS 4 CACHE INTERNAL "")

[quote user="loquat"]What I ended up wanting to do is load multiple proj.confs.[/quote]

You can use "OVERLAY_CONFIG" variable to do this. Read about it here:

https://docs.zephyrproject.org/3.2.0/develop/application/index.html#important-build-system-variables

[quote user="loquat"]Myapps/Kconfig can not override default value?[/quote]

No, you cannot redefine a already existing kconfig entry, but you can set a dependency on your own defined symbol:

depends on SYMBOL >= VALUE

Kind regards,

I want to set priority following,
1.prj.conf
2.CMakeLists.txt
3. Kconfig "default" keyword.

Where should I describe it in CMakeLists.txt, is it possible?

And one more question.

Myapps/Kconfig can not override default value?

I try,

MyApps/Kconfig
config BT_EXT_ADV_MAX_ADV_SET
default 4

But, .config is
CONFIG_BT_EXT_ADV_MAX_ADV_SET=1
(BT_EXT_ADV_MAX_ADV_SET' default value defined '1' by zephyr/subsys/bluetooth/Kconfig.adv)

What I ended up wanting to do is load multiple proj.confs.
Is there any way?

Hi,

You're right. It depends on where you place it in the CMakeLists.txt file.

If you place the set(..) before the find_package(..) line, the ordering will change to what you have now.

I'll update my original answer.

Kind regards,

Håkon

Realy?

I try on scan_adv project

Kconfig

source "Kconfig.zephyr"

config NRFX_GPIOTE_NUM_OF_EVT_HANDLERS
	default 2

CMakeLists.txt

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.20.0)

set(CONFIG_NRFX_GPIOTE_NUM_OF_EVT_HANDLERS 4 CACHE INTERNAL "")

find_package(Zephyr REQUIRED HINTS $ENV{ZEPHYR_BASE})

project(scan_adv)

FILE(GLOB app_sources src/*.c)
target_sources(app PRIVATE ${app_sources})

prj.conf

CONFIG_BT=y
CONFIG_BT_BROADCASTER=y
CONFIG_BT_OBSERVER=y
CONFIG_BT_DEBUG_LOG=y
CONFIG_NRFX_GPIOTE_NUM_OF_EVT_HANDLERS=8

The expected setting value is
CONFIG_NRFX_GPIOTE_NUM_OF_EVT_HANDLERS=8

but actually
CONFIG_NRFX_GPIOTE_NUM_OF_EVT_HANDLERS=4

what am i doing wrong?

Hi,

The value set in the application sets precedence:

https://docs.zephyrproject.org/3.1.0/build/kconfig/setting.html#the-initial-configuration

But; The CMakeLists.txt ordering also has an effect.

If this is your CMakeLists.txt:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.20.0)

set(CONFIG_NRFX_GPIOTE_NUM_OF_EVT_HANDLERS 4 CACHE INTERNAL "")

find_package(Zephyr REQUIRED HINTS $ENV{ZEPHYR_BASE})

Then the ordering is:

1. CMakeLists.txt

2. prj.conf

3. Kconfig "default" keyword.

If you switch the lines, so that find_package is first:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.20.0)

find_package(Zephyr REQUIRED HINTS $ENV{ZEPHYR_BASE})

set(CONFIG_NRFX_GPIOTE_NUM_OF_EVT_HANDLERS 4 CACHE INTERNAL "")

Then it will be:

1. prj.conf

2. CMakeLists.txt

3. Kconfig "default" keyword.

Kind regards,

Håkon
