Crashes with current ESP8266 code
Closed this issue · 8 comments
I'm not able to build a proper version of the current code with the current Arduino & ESP8266:
C64Net WiFi Firmware v3.6.3
sdk=2.2.2-dev(38a443e) chipid=1335429 cpu@80
totsize=1024k ssize=341k fsize=139k speed=40m
INITIALIZED
READY.

Some more build info:
Executable segment sizes:
ICACHE : 32768 - flash instruction cache
IROM : 311888 - code in flash (default or ICACHE_FLASH_ATTR)
IRAM : 27341 / 32768 - code in IRAM (IRAM_ATTR, ISRs...)
DATA : 1556 ) - initialized variables (global, static) in RAM/HEAP
RODATA : 4344 ) / 81920 - constants (global, static) in RAM/HEAP
BSS : 31992 ) - zeroed variables (global, static) in RAM/HEAP
Sketch uses 345129 bytes (40%) of program storage space. Maximum is 860144 bytes.
Global variables use 37892 bytes (46%) of dynamic memory, leaving 44028 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 81920 bytes.
It crashes as soon as a character is sent to the ESP8266 (1 Mb ESP-01)
Arduino 1.8.15, ESP8266 Boards 3.0.1, MacOS 11.4.
I did not succeed in installing the older 2.7.4 version of the ESP8266 package (probably a compiler toolchain mixup on my end), so it's not clear how to proceed from here. Is there an older binary image somewhere, so I could try that?
PS. This may be the same problem as #64, but I'm reporting it separately as this case is not NodeMCU-related.
Here's a copy compiled with Arduino 1.8.13 with the 2.7.4 libs.

Many thanks! That one works fine:
C64Net WiFi Firmware v3.6.3
sdk=2.2.2-dev(38a443e) chipid=1335429 cpu@80
totsize=1024k ssize=372k fsize=51k speed=40m
INITIALIZED
READY.

OK
(Note: I uploaded using: esptool.py write_flash --erase-all 0 zmodem3.6.3.bin)
So yeah, it looks like the ESP 3.0.1 change is what broke the build.
I'll leave this issue open, as it's a good workaround for now.

do you have the firmware files for this build? (source)

I just pulled the source that day and compiled.
@arkwise - to clarify: the only issue seems to be that the newer ESP 3.0.1 compiler toolchain doesn't work. Building Zimodem w/ ESP 2.7.4 solves this. I don't think the underlying cause for this issue has been determined.
@jcw OK cool I will try rolling back to the older versions and see if this helps :)
Thanks for figuring out that it is not safe, atm, to use head version of the esp8266 libs.
At one time I specified the esp lib version to use, and then, one day, the head versions started working, so I changed the README to just say 'use current'. And now, of course, I have to change the README back again to specify a version.
Again, much thanks though.
Folks, just a suggestion: I know that the Building section of the readme file mentions version 2.7.4, but wouldn't it be a good idea to add a note that newer versions do not work? I suggest this as I've lost a few hours scratching my head until I found this thread at last. Most people (like me) would assume the note referring to 2.7.4 was made at the time when such version was current, not imagining that newer versions won't work. Anyway... Just my two cents!
