upstream changes

I am using the http library, NCS 1.4.1 on nrf9160dk and discovered an issue that was fixed here: https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/commit/ab2f616641b19684455369b1e2a362eb736774cc

It is in to be released zephyr 3.1 and not yet available in NCS. I can't easily get off of NCS 1.4.1 right now anyway.

I can easily make the change to my NCS source tree but I really prefer to keep a clean tree as it is used on other projects also. If anybody has encountered a similar issue (eg. patch needed), how have you handled it? Does Nordic have a recommended way to deal with this?

Thanks,

Mike

  • Hello Mike, 

    The nRF Connect SDK tag v1.4.1 is two years old, is there a reason for why you are using this? Current official tag is v1.9.1, with v2.0.0 right around the corner, we would recommend updating to a newer version of NCS as this might fix your issue.

    One solution would be to cherry pick the PR you are referring to, however, this might introduce more issues given that you using an older version.

    Kind regards,
    Øyvind

  • I would very much like to update to newer SDK, but I am branching off an existing project based on 1.4.1. I did try to update but ran into issues where it didn't build/work and I was spending too much time trying to find the magic combination of settings in the prj.conf and device tree overlay that I gave up and added a workaround in my code. The fixes in zephyr are in the 3.1 release so I won't get them yet regardless.

    The cherry pick may be a good solution for the next time.

    Thanks,

    Mike
