[lws]: Generic support for ESP-IDF upstream (IDFGH-16828) #952
Description
Answers checklist.
- I have read the documentation for esp-protocols components and the issue is not addressed there.
- I have updated my esp-protocols branch (master or release) to the latest version and checked that the issue is present there.
- I have searched the issue tracker for a similar issue and not found a similar issue.
General issue report
Upstream lws does support ESP_PLATFORM, but in a very strange way:
Makefile and sources use direct links to specific
- IDF header and config files
- IDF components
This supports typically breaks in every major IDF release.
It is desirable to split the makefile and misc layers to generic LWS part (1) which could be a extended by a custom port layer (2).
Then keep (1) upstream and leave (2) in esp-protocols/lws layers
Created when removed IDFv6.0 support in #950
