ESP-WROOM-32D

[peter--s]

Hello,

I wonder why all configurations use
sdkconfig_options: CONFIG_FREERTOS_UNICORE: y
although the lamps come with ESPWROOM32D, where D stands for dual (core) (cf. e.g. https://github.com/currantlabs/esp-idf-1/blob/master/docs/en/hw-reference/modules-and-boards.rst).

Apparently esphome flashes the unicore bootloader for reasons that I do not grasp, which leads to
Running on single core variant of a chip, but app is built with multi-core support
(together with the core dump message quoted below) unless
CONFIG_FREERTOS_UNICORE: y
is used.

HomeSpan/HomeSpan#490 points towards a similar issue caused by Arduino IDE (and the discussion drifts away over partly related
Core dump flash config is corrupted!
and its mitigation using appropriate flashing methods.

Maybe this has been fixed in Arduino IDE in the meantime and matching bootloaders are flashed, but unfortunately I had conducted my experiments with a very old version.

Anyway, I think multi-core builds could be used on these lamps if the matching bootloader gets flashed, too.

Thoughts?
