Concurrent SSL Clients using OpenSSL

[mpulis]

Hi all,

Would it be possible to run multiple SSL Clients concurrently on the ESP32?

I'm asking this because I'm experiencing an error when trying to set up 2 SSL clients using OpenSSL, both of which are trying to connect to the same remote IP and Port but using different local TCP Ports (I've set up one on local Port 443 and another to 400).

The first client to be set up connects without any problems and works perfectly on its own, but the second fails when trying to build a new SSL structure, i.e. the SSL_new() method fails.

Does anyone know if such an operation is possible using the OpenSSL library?

If you have enough ram

I don't believe that its a memory issue. I've created 2 threads with the same memory allocated to each, with each one responsible of opening and handling a TCP client. At first I was initializing both at the same time, but now I've delayed one of them to open after the other.

The second thread is causing a LoadProhibited error to occur when calling the SSL_new() method, as shown below.

Guru Meditation Error of type LoadProhibited occurred on core 1. Exception was unhandled.

Found the problem, it was a lack of memory issue. Thanks for the support!
