What is the expected behavior?

If I call esp_now_add_peer with an esp_now_peer_info_t in which the priv pointer is set, esp_now_get_peer and esp_now_fetch_peer should display this pointer in the result of esp_now_peer_info_t. However, the pointer is not set.

What is the actual behavior?

Set the priv pointer to the value it was set with esp_now_add_peer.

Steps to reproduce.

` static uint8_t s_example_mac[ESP_NOW_ETH_ALEN] = { 0x01, 0x02, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07 }; esp_now_peer_info_t peer; esp_now_peer_info_t peerTest; uint32_t someUserData = (uint32_t)malloc(sizeof(uint32_t)); memset(&peer, 0, sizeof(esp_now_peer_info_t)); memset(&peerTest, 0, sizeof(esp_now_peer_info_t));

peer.channel = 5; peer.ifidx = WIFI_IF_STA; peer.encrypt = false; peer.priv = someUserData; memcpy(&peer.peer_addr, s_example_mac, ESP_NOW_ETH_ALEN);

printf("some user data Pointer: %p\n", peer.priv); if (esp_now_add_peer(&peer) != ESP_OK) printf("Failed adding peer"); if (esp_now_get_peer(s_example_mac, &peerTest)!= ESP_OK) printf("Failed getting peer");

printf("got user data Pointer: %p\n", peerTest.priv); `

Output: some user data Pointer: 0x3fcae554 got user data Pointer: 0x0
