stm32f429_disc imu sensor driver bug with zephyr

[hamzatamer]

Hello,

I am working with an stm32f429_disc board, which has an onboard i3g4250d gyroscope that communicates via SPI. The Zephyr SDK includes a sensor driver for this specific sensor.

However, even though I have defined this sensor under the SPI node in my overlay file, I am getting an undefined reference to __device_dts_ord_... linker error.

The strange part is that when I define a sensor with a different compatible string under this same node (for example, bosch-bme280), I don't get any errors. But when I specifically define it as st-i3g4250d, I receive the linker error.
My code is as follows;

#define I3G_NODE DT_NODELABEL(i3g4250)

const struct device* dev_sensor = DEVICE_DT_GET(I3G_NODE);;
int main()
{

    if (!device_is_ready(dev_sensor)){

        printk("error device is not ready\n");

        return 0;

    }
}

&spi5 {
	compatible = "st,stm32-spi";
	pinctrl-0 = <&spi5_sck_pf7 &spi5_miso_pf8 &spi5_mosi_pf9>;
	pinctrl-names = "default";
	status = "okay";
	cs-gpios = <&gpioc 1 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
	
	i3g4250: i3g4250@0{
		compatible = "st,i3g4250d";
		reg = <0>;
		spi-max-frequency = <1000000>;
		status = "okay";
	};
};
