With the changes in PR #5117, blink and other examples compile but the 8266
gets stuck in a reset loop. Undo the changes from that commit until we can
figure out the root cause and fix it.
BearSSL (https://www.bearssl.org) is a TLS(SSL) library written by
Thomas Pornin that is optimized for lower-memory embedded systems
like the ESP8266. It supports a wide variety of modern ciphers and
is unique in that it doesn't perform any memory allocations during
operation (which is the unfortunate bane of the current axTLS).
BearSSL is also absolutely focused on security and by default performs
all its security checks on x.509 certificates during the connection
phase (but if you want to be insecure and dangerous, that's possible
too).
While it does support unidirectional SSL buffers, like axTLS,
as implemented the ESP8266 wrappers only support bidirectional
buffers. These bidirectional buffers avoid deadlocks in protocols
which don't have well separated receive and transmit periods.
This patch adds several classes which allow connecting to TLS servers
using this library in almost the same way as axTLS:
BearSSL::WiFiClientSecure - WiFiClient that supports TLS
BearSSL::WiFiServerSecure - WiFiServer supporting TLS and client certs
It also introduces objects for PEM/DER encoded keys and certificates:
BearSSLX509List - x.509 Certificate (list) for general use
BearSSLPrivateKey - RSA or EC private key
BearSSLPublicKey - RSA or EC public key (i.e. from a public website)
Finally, it adds a Certificate Authority store object which lets
BearSSL access a set of trusted CA certificates on SPIFFS to allow it
to verify the identity of any remote site on the Internet, without
requiring RAM except for the single matching certificate.
CertStoreSPIFFSBearSSL - Certificate store utility
Client certificates are supported for the BearSSL::WiFiClientSecure, and
what's more the BearSSL::WiFiServerSecure can also *require* remote clients
to have a trusted certificate signed by a specific CA (or yourself with
self-signing CAs).
Maximum Fragment Length Negotiation probing and usage are supported, but
be aware that most sites on the Internet don't support it yet. When
available, you can reduce the memory footprint of the SSL client or server
dramatically (i.e. down to 2-8KB vs. the ~22KB required for a full 16K
receive fragment and 512b send fragment). You can also manually set a
smaller fragment size and guarantee at your protocol level all data will
fit within it.
Examples are included to show the usage of these new features.
axTLS has been moved to its own namespace, "axtls". A default "using"
clause allows existing apps to run using axTLS without any changes.
The BearSSL::WiFi{client,server}Secure implements the axTLS
client/server API which lets many end user applications take advantage
of BearSSL with few or no changes.
The BearSSL static library used presently is stored at
https://github.com/earlephilhower/bearssl-esp8266 and can be built
using the standard ESP8266 toolchain.
- Fixes WiFi not being able to reconnect after SDK update (#4398)
- Fixes increased current in light sleep mode
- Fixes return value documentation for wifi_{get,set}_country
+ generates boards.rst
+ generate and replace boards section in package.json
+ generate ldscripts
+ new debug option: OOM
+ new led menu for generic board
- Update SDK header files and libraries to SDK 2.0.0 plus 2.0.0_16_08_09
patch
- Remove mem_manager.o from libmain.a (replaced with umm_malloc)
- Disable switch from DIO to QIO mode for certain flash chips (saves
IRAM space)
- Add user_rf_cal_sector_set; it points to rf_init_data sector.
- Change the way rf_init_data is spoofed.
This is now done by wrapping spi_flash_read and returning the data we
need during startup sequence.
- Place lwip library into flash using linker script instead of section
attributes (saves IRAM space)
- use new AutoInterruptLock
- add delay to give the RTOS some time to handle TCP
WiFiClient.cpp
- add stopAllexcepted to cancel all TCP excepted one
ClientContext.h
- add getLocalPort()
ESP8266HTTPUpdate.cpp
- close all not needed TCP and UDP
osapi.h
- missing commit from SDK
Fixes issue of reentrant calls to nointerrupts()
exposed functional replacements to cli sei and SREG when dealing with
interrupts
InterruptLock class to auto stop and restore interrupt level
Fix user ISR calls to be like Arduino with interrupts disabled fully.
