This is no longer required since the functions automatically get
pulled in based on the usage. A quick summary of footprint
comparisions before and after these set of patches is shown below:
Hello-World: (simplified for readability)
old Total image size:~ 104902 bytes (.bin may be padded larger)
old Total image size:~ 105254 bytes (.bin may be padded larger)
Per-archive contributions to ELF file:
Archive File DRAM .data & .bss IRAM Flash code & rodata Total
old libesp32.a 1973 177 4445 3939 2267 12801
new libesp32.a 1973 185 4473 3939 2267 12837
new libnvs_flash.a 0 92 0 274 8 374
new libstdc++.a 0 0 0 24 0 24
For some reason, nvs_flash.a (~400bytes) gets pulled in (particularly
the nvs_flash_init() function).
Power-Save: (simplified for readability)
old Total image size:~ 421347 bytes (.bin may be padded larger)
old Total image size:~ 421235 bytes (.bin may be padded larger)
old libtcpip_adapter.a 0 81 0 1947 115 2143
new libtcpip_adapter.a 0 69 0 1897 115 2081
The size actually shrinks a bit, since the AP interface function
doesn't get pulled in.
If static tx buffer is selected, WiFi tx buffers are allocated when WiFi is initialized and released
when WiFi is de-initialized. If dynamic tx buffer is selected, WiFi tx buffer is allocated when tx
data is delivered from LWIP to WiFi and released when tx data is sent out by WiFi.
The size of each static tx buffers is fixed to about 1.6KB and the size of dynamic tx buffers is
depend on the length of the data delivered from LWIP.
If PSRAM is enabled, "STATIC" should be selected to guarantee enough WiFi tx buffers.
If PSRAM is disabled, "DYNAMIC" should be selected to improve the utilization of RAM.
If using WIFI_INIT_CONFIG_DEFAULT, error message will point out lack
of WiFi. Otherwise linker errors on WiFi symbols should help give a
clue as to what is broken.
Piggy-backs on changes in !420, ref github #230#237
1. TW8657, WIFI send the whole packet to smartconfig;
2. modify API annotation of smartconfig and sniffer;
3. export smartconfig APIs to programming guide;
1. fix tw8911 sleep in scan leads to auth frame malloc fail.
2. fix tw8913 pm state transfer wrong leads to wdt.
3. make some comments for modem sleep and wpa2 enterprise.
4. removd duplicated debug option ESP_THREAD_SAFE_DEBUG
1. Add detailed return error code for wifi APIs
2. Add description about error code in esp_wifi.h
3. Modify esp_wifi_reg_rxcb to esp_wifi_internal_reg_rxcb
4. Modify esp_wifi_set_sta_ip to esp_wifi_internal_set_sta_ip
5. Mark system_init as deprecated API
The customers need to get information about AP that associated with ESP32 station,
these information includes RSSI, channel number etc, so add this new API
1. Modify sta to station in comments
2. Modify esp_wifi_get_ap_num to esp_wifi_scan_get_ap_num
3. Modify esp_wifi_get_ap_list to esp_wifi_scan_get_ap_records
While this may reduce esp_wifi.h file readability for people who don't have a "go to definition" function in their editors, this is needed to decouple esp_wifi and esp_event headers, and possibly other headers which may use wifi types in the future.
