node.dsleep() no longer takes options.
node.output() not yet supported (needs syscall registration/chaining support)
Dynamic CPU frequency changing not currently supported in the IDF.
Various chip IDs not currently available/obtainable.
Boot reason completely revamped in ESP32, will need new code.
RTOS driver evicted as it did not play nice with stdio etc.
Implemented a minimal driver to fully support Lua console on UART0. Output
on UART0 done via stdout (provided by the IDF). Input and setup handled
via driver_console/console.c. In addition to the direct input function
console_getc(), the driver also registers in the syscall tables to enable
regular stdio input functions to work (yay!). The Lua VM is still using the
direct interface since it's less overhead, but does also work when going
through stdin/fd 0.
Auto-bauding on the console is not yet functional; revisit when the UART docs
are available.
Module registration/linking/enabling moved over to be Kconfig based. See
updates to base_nodemcu/include/module.h and base_nodemcu/Kconfig for
details.
The sdk-overrides directory/approach is no longer used. The IDF is simply
too different to the old RTOS SDK - we need to adapt our code directly instead.
Everything in app/ is now unused, and will need to be gradually migrated
into components/ though it is probably better to migrate straight from the
latest dev branch.
This fixes the rather unexpected Fatal Exception(9) crashes when executing
something as trivial as "=type(4)". Also ensured the #if/#else structure
will complain loudly next time we port to a new board.
The irom0_flash.bin file gets written to offset 0x40000 in flash. Said file
has the following layout
| irom0 | text | data | rodata | chksum |
...so the previous approach of having a _flash_used_end symbol at the end of
the irom0 section no longer gives us an accurate view of how much of the flash
is used.
New driver is a three-way merger between Espressif's esp8266-rtos-sdk example
driver, Espressif's esp32-rtos-sdk not-example driver, and the previous
NodeMCU driver, plus some general clean-ups.
Basic interactivity is now available on the ESP32!
Running without interrupt vectors not considered all that useful...
Disabled flash-size-byte-setting and SPIFFS formatting on ESP32, for now
at least, as both of these appeared to corrupt the flash and prevent
subsequent boots.
Disabled UART init on ESP32 until the driver gets updated.
This now gets us to a banner on ESP32, but not yet a prompt.
A fair bit of reshuffling with include paths and overrides was necessary, as
the two RTOS SDKs (ESP8266 and ESP32) don't have the same header structure
(or even libraries for that matter). Uses the xtensa-esp108-elf toolchain
to build.
Completely untested beyond linking, as I still can't flash the ESP32 module
I have :( I'd be most surprised if it does anything useful at this point
considering I've spent almost no time on the linker script or UART setup.
Anything using espconn has been ifdef'd out since espconn is not (and
probably will not be) available. Notably this includes the entire net module
as well as coap, mqtt and enduser_setup.
Many (most?) hardware bus drivers and related modules are also ifdef'd
out for now due to hardware differences. Functions surrounding sleep,
rtc and RF modes have also been hit by the ifdef hammer. Grep'ing for
__ESP8266__ and/or FIXME is a quick way of finding these places. With
time I hope all of these will be reinstated.
