Not work (not compile) example ZIGBEE GATEWAY and THREAD BR

[pilnikov]

Answers checklist.

• I have read the Rainmaker documentation and the issue is not addressed there.
• I have updated my IDF branch (release/vX.Y) to the latest version and checked that the issue is present there. This is not applicable if you are using Rainmaker with Arduino.
• I have searched the Rainmaker forum and issue tracker for a similar issue and not found a similar issue.

IDF / ESP32-Arduino version.

6.1

Operating System used.

Windows

How did you build your project?

Command line with idf.py

Development Kit.

esp32c6 supermini 4mb flash

What is the expected behavior?

log from my board
I tried compile thread_br and zigbee_gateway examples

What is the actual behavior?

does not work correctly

Steps to reproduce.

1. Step remove from idf_component.yml espressif/m5stack_core_s3: version: "^1.1.1" because version is unknown.
2. Step add espressif/mqtt: '*' between add-dependency
3. Step rework partitions.csv

Name, Type, SubType, Offset, Size, Flags
esp_secure_cert, 0x3F, , 0xD000, 0x2000, encrypted
nvs_key, data, nvs_keys, 0xF000, 0x1000, encrypted
nvs, data, nvs, 0x10000, 0x6000,
otadata, data, ota, , 0x2000
phy_init, data, phy, , 0x1000,
ota_0, app, ota_0, 0x20000, 0x1E7000,
ota_1, app, ota_1, , 0x1E7000,
rcp_fw, data, spiffs, , 0x1000,
fctry, data, nvs, 0x3FB000, 0x5000

because size of main image is too big
4. rework caim.c and node auth.c (in attach) because "mbedtls/sha256.h not found" and more components from mbedtls.
5. MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_WRITE_C switch to "ON" in sdconfig, because several func is not compiling
6. little more fix for new version of idf

E (450) esp_claim: mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed returned -0x0001 because

int ret = -1;
#if defined(MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_C)
mbedtls_entropy_context entropy;
const char *pers = "gen_csr";
mbedtls_entropy_init(&entropy);
ret = mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed( &ctr_drbg, mbedtls_entropy_func, &entropy, (const unsigned char *) pers, strlen(pers));
#endif

and

MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_C is not defined because

#if !defined(MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG)
#define MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_C
#endif

and

#ifndef CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_LINUX
#undef MBEDTLS_PSA_BUILTIN_GET_ENTROPY
#define MBEDTLS_PSA_DRIVER_GET_ENTROPY
#define MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG
#endif // !CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_LINUX

MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG defined, because my IDF_TARGET is not "LINUX"

thank you

@pilnikov please switch to IDF release/v5.5. This is the latest IDF release the esp-rainmaker is tested to work with.
6.0 support is on cards and not yet released.

Yes, in idf 5.5 compiled and working. Little 2 problem. Please note in the Readme file that it only works with idf versions <=5.5

Hi @pilnikov ,

I faced this recently when I want to build Zigbee GW for ESP32-C3. Then I comment out them from idf_component.yml file and it works fine. See,ms those are dependency for ESP32-S3 M5Stack board.
