How to adapt memory to 512K ESP01? #263

Open Karl-opec opened 6 years ago

Karl-opec commented 6 years ago

I tried to flash a ESP-01, 512KB with flash.sh but got the following message:

A fatal error occurred: File 2.4.0-pre2-0x40000-en.bin (length 383568) at offset 262144 will not fit in 524288 bytes of flash. Use --flash-size argument, or change flashing address.

How can i run the software on such a device?

Honestly, I'm not sure. That must be one of the first generation ESP-01 boards, right? They now all come with at least 1 MB of flash. I don't have any ESP-01 like this to test.

If there's a solution, it might involve editing ldscript_memspecific.ld and likely something else in the makefiles, as per https://github.com/pfalcon/esp-open-sdk/issues/226#issuecomment-265415461 and https://bbs.espressif.com/viewtopic.php?t=784 - then, of course, rebuild the firmware.

note ldscript_memspecific.ld overrides the mentioned eagle.app.v6.ld file.

Thank you for your hints,

I managed to get it compiled and flashed it to 0x20000. Modified Makefile.combined:

ldscript_memspecific.ld: $(vecho) "GEN $@" $(Q) echo "MEMORY { irom0_0_seg : org = 0x40220000, len = "$$(printf "0x%X" $$(($(ESP_SPI_FLASH_SIZE_K)*1024-0x24000)))" }"> ldscript_memspecific.ld and changed eagle.app.v6.ld appropriate.

On the debug uart i get the following output.

But nothing is shown, only html error 404 then i can disconnect the client from ap and i get following: station: 48:4b:aa:a0:31:e2 leave, AID = 1 rm 1 So far it seems running bat where are the html pages. I already have made make web. it has generated the html subfolder in source.

Any Idea how to procedd from here?

That's good progress! I'll try to replicate your changes and see if I get the same result. The log output looks perfectly fine. Maybe the "filesystem" module is looking at the wrong address or something like that

MightyPork commented 6 years ago

Okay, so I gave it a try, but unfortunately I can't replicate your success (at least using my 4MB device).

I got it to show me the 404 page once, but I'm unable to replicate it. If you get it to work, let me know, but I'm afraid I'm unable to help here.
