Please note: esp-idf is not completely open source. Central components are only included in binary form. I wanted to look into the wifi source to add an RSSI getter for STA mode. Turns out, there is no source for the wifi stack. https://github.com/espressif/esp32-wifi-lib/issues/1 So all radio network interface (modem, wifi & bluetooth) baseband implementations are closed source and may contain evil or bad things. I was hoping we could now at least offer one auditable networking option. Regards, Michael -- Michael Balzer * Helkenberger Weg 9 * D-58256 Ennepetal Fon 02333 / 833 5735 * Handy 0176 / 206 989 26
I think Espressif bought them in from another company. Binary blobs only. Regards, Mark.
