ESB Application not working after ESB refactor in latest SDK

[agoessling-magpie]

I have a fairly simple ESB application that was working with nRF Connect SDK v2.1.3 but is not working with v2.2.0.  I was able to bisect the SDK and isolate the issue to a ESB refactoring commit.  If either the PTX or the PRX contain this commit the ESB communication is not successful.  I'm curious if this commit was purely a refactor or if it also changed ESB behavior?  Has anyone experienced problems with ESB on SDKs >=v2.2.0?

Hi, 

Are you using DK or a custom board? 
Is it possible to share the test program?

Hi Amanda,

I am using 2x of the 52840 DK.  Both the PTX and PRX are on the "sdk" branch here: https://github.com/agoessling/nrf52_radio/tree/sdk

Hi Amanda,

I was wondering if you or your team were able to reproduce this issue?

Thanks,

Andy

Hi Andy

I recently handled an issue which sounded similar. In this case the problem was that using a max payload size > 32 bytes did not work in v2.2.0. Can you confirm whether or not you are using a payload size over 32 bytes?

The other case, including a link to a patch, is here:
ESB dynamic size no longer works above size 48 payloads on toolchain update

Best regards

Hi Torbjørn,

Yes my max packet size is 252.  I will try that patch.
