async-io dependency breaks build

[FrozenDroid]

Quite easy to reproduce - just build master and you will see many errors involving libc.

[patch.crates-io]
async-io = { git = "https://github.com/smol-rs/async-io.git", rev = "d9c9ed8" }
socket2 = { git = "https://github.com/rust-lang/socket2", rev = "77e3bb9" }

seems to fix my issue - I suppose we need to wait for async-io and socket2 to release new versions to fix this.

Upstream support for ESP IDF in the smol ecosystem is in an odd shape right now:

We need new releases for the following crates, as the ESP IDF changes are upstreamed in there, but not released yet:

• socket2
• polling
• rust-errno

Crates where the ESP IDF changes are upstreamed and also released:

• rustix

Crates where ESP IDF changes are upstreamed, yet their master branch is not usable yet:

• async-io, because of this

In the meantime, what you can do is:

• pin async-io to an old version as done here and here
• Patch polling and socket2 (and possibly, the smol aggregation crate itself) as done here to earlier not upstreamed forks. also done here

UPDATE:

Crates which still need a small PR to be upstreamed:

• smol, here. No big deal as smol is just an aggregator crate anyway.

@FrozenDroid Small progress update:

• polling 3.0 was released recently, with all ESP-IDF-related changes upstreamed
• The relevant ESP-IDF changes to rustix,socket2 and errno are also upstreamed and released.

Waiting for the release of async-io 2.0 now, which I hope is imminent, and which would probably be released together with smol 2.0.

That would complete the upstreaming story of ESP-IDF in the smol-rs echosystem.
