espnow_ota_initator_scan hang problem #8

Closed poky closed 2 years ago

poky commented 2 years ago

Hi, I'm trying to test the OTA function, however, I've found that if call espnow_ota_initator_scan function at:

https://github.com/espressif/esp-now/blob/e5a13ba19f12727b9544e1dbd04639bf5016a4d8/components/ota/espnow_ota_initiator.c#L77

It will hang for few seconds, and no other threads can run, is there anyway to get around this problem? Thanks!

Blocks happen at xQueueReceive in espnow_recv( wait ticks is not 0). To get around this problem, use vTaskDelay instead of wait ticks, as following:

        vTaskDelay(recv_ticks);
        // for (; espnow_recv(ESPNOW_TYPE_OTA_STATUS, recv_addr, recv_data, &recv_size, &rx_ctrl, recv_ticks) == ESP_OK; recv_ticks = 100) {
        for (; espnow_recv(ESPNOW_TYPE_OTA_STATUS, recv_addr, recv_data, &recv_size, &rx_ctrl, 0) == ESP_OK; (vTaskDelay(100))) {

Be careful for other thread process espnow_recv(ESPNOW_TYPE_OTA_STATUS...)
