SPI does not work

[Energiya]

Hello,
I have got XIAO ESP32S3 and ESP32-WROOM32 units. I have got exactly the same problem on both. SPI works on Arduino but it does not on ESP-IDF. I use ESP-IDF 5.1.2.

I setup SPI by using code below. Later I send 4 bytes

I receive wrong data, always the same bytes no matter what 4 bytes are sent. Screenshot from logic analyzer:

Everything is correct. I can write and read data without problems. Screenshot from logic analyzer below. Everything is fine.

When I start program on Arduino later on ESP-IDF you can clearly see differences on logic analyzer

Hardware connection is fine because it works on Arduino. It is something wrong with configuration on ESP-IDF (I have spent lots of time trying different configurations). It is something incorrect with PINS or MOSI or CLOCK or ... . Behavior is the same on XIAO ESP32s3 and ESP32 units ( I reconfigure pins of course ). Tried VSPI and HSPI.

Did someone have similar issue?

Hi,
I have resolved the issue. I have noticed that mosi_io_num and data0_io_num are union. Also miso_io_num and data1_io_num.

union {
int mosi_io_num; ///< GPIO pin for Master Out Slave In (=spi_d) signal, or -1 if not used.
int data0_io_num; ///< GPIO pin for spi data0 signal in quad/octal mode, or -1 if not used.
};
union {
int miso_io_num; ///< GPIO pin for Master In Slave Out (=spi_q) signal, or -1 if not used.
int data1_io_num; ///< GPIO pin for spi data1 signal in quad/octal mode, or -1 if not used.
};

When these lines are removed everything works fine

Config.data0_io_num = -1;
Config.data1_io_num = -1;
