Documentation seems incomplete/RCP is missing required capabilities (TZ-1143) #96

Checklist

How often does this bug occurs?

always

Expected behavior

TBR to start and allow me to create a thread network

Actual behavior (suspected bug)

Reboot loop.

The reason I think the docs might be wrong is because here:

2.1.4. Build and Run the Thread Border Router Build and Flash the example to the host SoC.

idf.py -p ${PORT_TO_BR} flash monitor

There is no build step, so I added build before flash (maybe that was my issue?).

The other part that makes me think it might be incomplete is how does the built H2 binary get into the TBR firmware? It seems to be built in a different project then not referenced, I suspect that is what is causing my boot loop as the RCP hasnt had it's firmware updated.

Other things to mention is that the menuconfig stuff seems a little lacking in that you need to specify 12 IPv6 addresses per interface and the default is 8 and if you are using the Ethernet daughter board you must set auto connect on.

I think that there was one other issue but I cant remember what it was.

It would be useful if someone ran through the complete build steps (mine was done on a Raspberry Pi 5 if that matters?).

Thanks in advance!

We have confirmed that the capabilities mismatch issue occurs when running an older RCP version with a newer host version. Could you please build both the Host and RCP from the same IDF version and try again? You need to flash the RCP firmware to H2 directly.

We are currently working on a solution to safely upgrade the RCP firmware when new capabilities are enabled.

I have this problem also. I believe I'm using the same idf version for each, when I follow either https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-thread-br/en/latest/dev-guide/build_and_run.html or https://openthread.io/codelabs/esp-openthread-hardware#1 . When I activate idf, I see I have version 5.4. The fix here for me was to flash the RCP firmware to the H2 chip directly.

mkleef commented 1 week ago

What needs to be made clearer also is that each USB-C port on the board connects to a different half of the chipset. That was a doh! idiot! moment for me ;) I couldn't work out how to flash the H2 part with the RCP separate from the BR on S3. LOL.

Thanks for the tip about flashing the H2 chip. That fixed it for me.
