timer_process_alarm function of esp_timer holds a spinlock for the
entire duration of its operation, except for the time when timer
callback function is called. It is possible that when
timer_process_alarm releases the spinlock, a higher priority task may
run and delete the timer. Then the execution will return to
timer_process_alarm, and this will either cause a crash, or undesired
execution of callback after the timer has been stopped or deleted.
To solve this problem, add a mutex which will prevent deletion of timers
while callbacks are being dispatched.
state and reduce force receiving broadcast data time
1. If receiving beacon which indicates that there is no data buffered,
do not force to receive WiFi data.
2. If receiving beacon which indicates that there is broadcast data
buffered, reduce the time to force receiving broadcast data.
1. when no parent is found, send probe request via broadcast.
2. fix memory leak caused by the remove announcement being sent is not released when esp_mesh_stop() is called.
3. fix modify IE encrypt after mesh is started.
4. ignore esp_mesh_connect() if mesh automatic reconnection is enabled.
5. fix reason is cleared before vote is done.
1. fix STAs can not detect disconnection from AP when encrypt transmission is used.
2. fix can not find hidden APs.
3. for root, modify the active scan time to 120ms.
4. remove all rc when clear parent Wi-Fi configuration.
5. fix error in checking Wi-Fi commit ID.
* Prevents section type conflict errors if (say) const & non-const data
is put into the same section (ie with DRAM_ATTR)
* Allows linker --gc-sections to remove unused custom sections
This fix includes following changes:
1. Fix the bug that esp_restart()/esp_wifi_stop() sometimes fails in WiFi/BT coexist mode.
2. Add a timer for WiFi stop and stop WiFi forcibly once the timer expires.
1. start an esp_timer on entering sleep to acquire pm_lock before wake up from modem sleep
2. decrease the clock division of XTAL fed to bluetooth low power clock from 32us to 2us period to allow to work under 240MHz Max CPU frequency
3. decrease the minimum sleep duration threshold to allow shorter bluetooth modem sleep period, especially for BLE with short connection interval
4. reconfigure bluetooth baseband(BT-BB) settings after PHY/RF init upon waking up from modem sleep to avoid packet RX/TX performance degradation
1. Fix interrupt watchdog timeout in bluetooth "btdm_bb_isr"
2. Fix BLE assert(512) or assert(1536) in rwble.c at line 222
3. Update librtc.a to fix BLE assert(512) in rwble.c at line 222
The #1 and #2 occurs random.
The #3 bug occurs in certain scenario:
1. If Wifi start softap and BLE is working
2. If wifi start station, but do not use normal station operation, such
as just use espnow, while BLE is working
3. Any other scenario, that wifi works without use software coexist
operation, while BLE is working(such as do advertising and ...)
4. update libcoexist.a version to v1.1.2
Added a new structure esp_app_desc_t. It has info about firmware:
version, secure_version, project_name, time/date build and IDF version.
Added the ability to add a custom structure with a description of the firmware.
The esp_app_desc_t is located in fixed place in start of ROM secotor. It is located after structures esp_image_header_t and esp_image_segment_header_t.
app_version is filed from PROJECT_VER variable (if set in custom make file) or PROJECT_PATH/version.txt or git repo (git describe).
Add API to get app_desc from partition.
1. add network channel switch function.
- users can obtain the new channel through the event MESH_EVENT_CHANNEL_SWITCH.
- the entire network will be moved to the same channel as the router without user intervention.
- if no router is in the network, users can call esp_mesh_switch_channel() on the root side to
move the entire network to their desired channel.
2. support not configuring the network channel.
3. support not configuring the router BSSID even if the router is hidden.
4. add allow_channel_switch to mesh configuration.
- if the channel is not specified, this value will be ignored.
- if the channel is specified and this value is set, when "fail" (mesh_attempts_t) times of parent selection
or look for networks are reached, device will change to perform a full channel scan for networks that could join.
- if the channel is specified and this value is set to 0, when a root is not elected, channel switch is not allowed.
but when a root appears, the root performs a full channel scan during the process of connecting to the router,
so even allow_channel_switch is set to 0, the root may still switch channel and eventually the entire network
changes channel.
5. add allow_router_switch to mesh router configuration.
- if the BSSID of router is not specified, this value will be ignored.
- if the BSSID of router is specified and this value is set, when the router of this specified BSSID fails to be found
after "fail" (mesh_attempts_t) times, the entire network is allowed to switch to another router with the same SSID.
6. modify the root to perform a full channel scan when esp_wifi_connect().
7. support handling beacon without DS Paramter Set.
Fix some WiFi bugs:
1. Enable RX BAR
2. Fix the bug that ESP32 AP negotiates with iphone to 11g
3. Fix the bug that ESP32 STA has ap_loss because CMCC AP contains two SSID
1. fix failture of mesh stop caused by block-sending.
2. fix when FIXED_ROOT is set, 2nd layer devices can not receive mesh event ESP_ERR_MESH_NO_PARENT_FOUND.
3. fix when FIXED_ROOT is set and the root turns off mesh function, 2nd layer devices do not look for new parents.
4. add APIs esp_mesh_disconnect() and esp_mesh_connect().
5. disconnect from parent/router when the DSSS channel in received beacon is different from the home channel.
6. remove nvs task to release 3k bytes memory.
If zero-overhead loop buffer is enabled, under certain rare conditions
when executing a zero-overhead loop, the CPU may attempt to execute an invalid instruction. Work around by disabling the buffer.
