support Wi-Fi Aware (NAN) on ESP32S3

Hi,

Based on what I found in ESP-IDF 5.1.3 and 5.2.1, it seems that Wi-Fi Aware or NAN (Neighbor Awareness Networking) is only supported on ESP32 and ESP32S2.

See this example: https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tr ... _publisher
and the code below

Code: Select all

typedef enum {
    WIFI_IF_STA = ESP_IF_WIFI_STA,
    WIFI_IF_AP  = ESP_IF_WIFI_AP,
#if defined(CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32) || defined(CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32S2)
    WIFI_IF_NAN = ESP_IF_WIFI_NAN,
#endif
    WIFI_IF_MAX
} wifi_interface_t;
Is there any reason why NAN is not supported on ESP32S3? is it planned to support NAN on ESP32S3 in the future?

Many thanks

According to this document , ESP32-S3 supports NAN. https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... p_nan.html

Thanks for the reply. I am aware of the document page. But the ESP-IDF (release 5.1) and the github says differently. ESP32S3 is not supported yet.
