Issue or Suggestion Description

Does ESP Mesh Lite mark the OTA partition as valid after boot?

We are doing that manually but sometimes we are failing to obtain the partition state as ESP_OTA_IMG_PENDING_VERIFY because it has already been marked as ESP_OTA_IMG_VALID. In those cases we see this warning log line:

W (2597) ESP_Mesh_Lite_OTA: SHA-256 for current firmware: ...

Anything you can share about this process?

Thank you very much!

Yes, Mesh Lite sets the OTA partition to valid during initialization.

W (2597) ESP_Mesh_Lite_OTA: SHA-256 for current firmware: ...

This is merely a print of the SHA-256 for the current firmware and is not an error message. It will be logged as INFO level in future versions.

Is there a way to disable the automatic 'set pending activation partition valid' feature? If esp-mesh-lite enforces this, we won't be able to perform customized checks.

OK, thank you for your suggestion, we will optimize it later.
