Hello,
I have a project with esp32s2. I have a static library which is provided by a vendor. The static library contains modified mbedtls. When I link the static library on my IDF sample project, some mbedtls function is conflict with the mbedtls component.
So my question is there is any way to disable IDF mbedtls? If yes, what should I do? Thanks.
How to disable mbedtls on ESP-IDF

I'd also like to disable mbedlts for another reason: it takes up additional Flash and perhaps RAM resources. It looks impossible though: there is no such flag.
Seems like we're forced to use encrypted communication when no communication is needed.

Re: How to disable mbedtls on ESP-IDF
Generally, if you don't link to mbedtls stuff anywhere, the linker will see it's not used and not include it in your binary. Do note, however, that various things like (iirc) BT and the WiFi stack do depend on mbedtls for their crypto needs, so if you use those, mbedtls will be included.
Re: How to disable mbedtls on ESP-IDF
In some projects I need WiFi but the communication is within the local network only, so I don't need encryption.
The way I'm currently doing this is disabling each and every feature in mbedtls menuconfig:
Unfortunately, I cannot exclude all features as some headers complain that I must select at least one encryption algorithm,.

Re: How to disable mbedtls on ESP-IDF
...you don't even need a password for your WiFi network? Because WPA uses encryption. But yeah, even if you were to only use open networks, I don't think the WiFi stack is configurable to not accept any encryption at all. You could create a mbedtls component in your project (which will override the ESP-IDF version) and simply code stub functions for everything that is needed, but I'm not sure what stuff will break if you'd do that.
Re: How to disable mbedtls on ESP-IDF
Yeah I do use WPA connections, I didn't think of that. Well, at least I found the minimal working configuration of mbedtls that doesn't require tinkering with ESP-IDF components code.
