Problem with update esp-idf.

[ESP_Roland]

Hi Palonso,

yes, your PATH seems to be fine.

What is the output of `esp32ulp-elf-as --version`? Am I assuming correctly that your system is Linux?

[Palonso]

Hi Roland,

Yes, I'm running Linux (Ubuntu 18.04)

here is the output to the ulp-elf version:

Code: Select all

$ esp32ulp-elf-as --version

Here I translated the message, since I have it in spanish my computer:

Code: Select all

$ esp32ulp-elf-as --version

Hi Palonso,

Thank you for patience and help narrowing down the issue. This is something new I never faced before.

Could you please try to replace line no. 29 in components/ulp/component_ulp_common.mk:

Code: Select all

ULP_AS_VER := $(shell $(ULP_AS) --version | sed -E -n 's|GNU assembler \(GNU Binutils\) ([a-z0-9\.-]+)|\1|gp')

with this one:

Code: Select all

ULP_AS_VER := $(shell $(ULP_AS) --version | sed -E -n 's/.+ \(GNU Binutils\) ([a-z0-9\.-]+)( .*)?/\1/gp')

Does this solve your issue?

Hi Roland,

This somehow solved the problem. here is the log from compiling with make:

but when I use idf.py here is the result:

Hi Palonso,

for fixing idf.py, please try to replace line 16 of components/ulp/cmake/CMakeLists.txt

Code: Select all

string(REGEX MATCH "GNU assembler \\(GNU Binutils\\) (${version_pattern})" as_version ${as_output})

with this one:

Code: Select all

string(REGEX MATCH "\\(GNU Binutils\\) (${version_pattern})" as_version ${as_output})

Hi, Roland

Perfect now it seems to be working fine in both ways. Here is the log for the idf.py build:

Code: Select all

[587/962] Performing configure step for 'ulp_main'
-- Building ULP app ulp_main
-- ULP assembler version: 2.28.51-esp-20191205
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /home/pablo/esp/ulp/build/esp-idf/main/ulp_main

should this be pull-requested to the esp-idf repo? or this was a particular error so I should "fix it" everytime I update the IDF?

regards,
P

[ESP_Roland]

Hi Palonso,

thank you very much for your help. These fixes will be included in all supported releases of ESP-IDF. I cannot tell you when that will happen. Until then you have to fix it for after every IDF update (if your fixes are discarded).

[ESP_Roland]

For future reference, commit edd7c1a2eef6c9ae61c026765fce66db63c08140 fixes this issue and will be available in latest master the next time ESP-IDF is updated on Github. The fix will be backported to release branches.
