While using Nordic serialisation , sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure api is causing connectivity chip to reset

I am connecting a nrf52480 board (Adafruit Feather nRF52840 Express) as Connectivity chip and a custom board as Application chip for Nordic serialisation. Able to establish communication between these two broads using the serialisation from  NRF SDK over HCI transport. But while calling sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure from Application chip, connectivity chip is resetting. Actually ble_advertising_start API is internally calling the sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure and that call is causing the reset.

I am able to run the serialisation example from PC (using pc-ble-driver) with the same connectivity chip and same firmware on it.

While analysing the issue, seems like some buffer overflow is happening. From pc when I call this sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure api, there was a data transfer of 55 bytes, and when I call from my custom board (M4 cortex, with freertos running ,and I have ported the serialisation library from nordic sdk for this board) there was a transfer of 63 bytes (or around).

So I tried changing the advertisement name from "Nordic_HRM" to just "N" and there was a transfer of just 57 bytes. And now it is working. The sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure api is retruning and advertisement also starting.

Is this a known issue? Is there any fix for this already?

Softdevice used: s140

Connectivity chip: nrf5480 (Adafruit Feather nRF52840 Express), with connectivity firmware from NRF SDK flashed on it

Application chip: a custom board with arm coretex M4, and freertos running on it and, serialisation library from NRF SDK ported on it



NOTE: Ealier i was facing one more issue that application chip was crashing while calling the same above api, and fixed it using the change described in this issue:
