Peer Manager Init returns NRF_ERROR_STORAGE_FULL at boot time, why?

[ndarkness]

Hello,

I am using nrf52832 pca10040 with softdevice v3 of SDK v12.2, when booting my device tries to initialize the peer manager with pm_init() and this function is returning error code 0x3.

I have traced it a bit and within pm_init() the function pds_init() is called and within it the error comes when invoking fds_init() which returns NRF_ERROR_STORAGE_FULL.

How can this happen at booting time? And more important what can I do to fix it? Would giving more memory fix the issue?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: I have been reading this post and this other so think that I needed to adjust my uuid_count and attr_tab_size on ble_enable_params because I use 128 UUIDs. Thus I have

1 base 128 bits UUID                                                          = 128bits
5 characteristics whose UUID are as well 128 bits                             = 5 * 128 = 640 bits
2 characteristics whose UUID are 16 bits (battery service and device service) = 2 * 16  = 32 bits
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                        total = 800 bits = 0x320





ble_enable_params.common_enable_params.vs_uuid_count = 1; //base UUID
ble_enable_params.gatts_enable_params.attr_tab_size = 0x320; //800 bits

After trying them it doesn't work... any help?

EDIT2: If I comment the init of the peer_mamanger(), my whole program runs as it should, so I don't know what is happening with the peer manager and the fds...

i think you should change the ram value in c/c++. try to print it through uart. it will specify you about the ram value

thanks @karthikeyan , it didn't help, I erased the whole chip and flash again, it worked the first two times but after that my nrf52 hangs when calling fds_init()

[Petter Myhre]

This is probably not a RAM issue. So pds_init() returns NRF_ERROR_STORAGE_FULL? And what does fds_init() return? FDS_ERR_NO_PAGES? Please try to figure out the origin of the error.

Have you made any modifications to Peer Manager? Is your application using FDS?

You can also consider uploading your complete project, if you want me to try to reproduce here.

Hi @Petter Myhre, I found my issue, it had to to with the fact that whike using EMbedded Studio the assambly mapping file (thumb_crt0.s) for the nrf52 was not correct, and therefore the FDS instructions where no being executed throwing the memory error.
