Currently trying to get a task running with its stack placed in the PSRAM (Task needs far more than 150k, but for sure less than 4M, uses LwIP). I know about the issues with Task Stacks and PSRAM Cache workarround on Wafer Revision 0/1 Chips.
Now to my question: Will a rev 3 chip do the trick in this case? I cant find a clear statement if this is possible with rev 3 chips, the doc only says: "don't do this with the workaround", but not "Its okay with fixed rev 3 chips"
btw: When i ignore the issue and place the stack there anyway, i always get a Stackoverflow Runtime Error.
Has anyone tried this already?
FreeRTOS Task Stack in PSRAM

Re: FreeRTOS Task Stack in PSRAM
It should be fine on the v3. Note that as your stack is in PSRAM, you may not be able to call functions that write to flash or otherwise disable the cache; if you do so, you will immediately get a clear error message (something like 'external memory access while cache is disabled' iirc) so it should be easy to debug.
Not sure why you get the stack overflow, by the way. It would help if you post your code, perhaps it's something obvious.

Re: FreeRTOS Task Stack in PSRAM
I am now using a v3 Chip. I found out that if i force every malloc to PSRAM (Maximum malloc()size, in bytes, to always put in internal memory = 0) i get a stack overflow, otherwise (16384, default) a corrupted heap.

Re: FreeRTOS Task Stack in PSRAM
I can imagine that something crashes if you set esp-idf to allocate everything in RAM; it's actually not a condition we test for and there may be some startup-related things that assume that their allocation ends up in internal memory. The heap corruption is a bit more worrying; do you get something like a backtrace there?
