Dual core bootloader on a single core chip?
Posted: Fri May 24, 2024 11:14 am
Can I use a bootloader compiled for dual core on a single core chip? The app is compiled for single core.
I somewhere read that we should not use a bootloader compiled for single core when the app is for dual core. But what about the other way round?
The bootloader documentation does not say anything about that:
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... oader.html
BTW, do you plan an auto detect mechanism for the IDF? esp_chip_info_t.cores shows the correct core count, why not use it in the initialization process so we can compile one app to fit both single and dual core chips?
