Breaking Changes

• Core System: Renamed __VA_NARG__ and its macros to be prefixed with ESP_, i.e. __VA_NARG__ to ESP_VA_NARG to avoid naming collisions. If using these then update to use the new name. (bb8fa93)
• Security / ESP Cert Bundle: Due to changes in the certificate bundle format to reduce RAM usage, the use of pre-generated certificate bundles using the older format would now be incompatible with the newer application binaries. You now need to either use the default ESP-IDF build system method for attaching the certificate bundle while building applications or update your pre-generated certificate bundle binaries by generating them using the latest gen_crt_bundle.py script. (fa4c387)
• SDMMC: Function sdmmc_host_init no longer returns ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE when the SDMMC host is already initialized, now it returns ESP_OK. (d1571c1)
• SPI Flash: Removed XMC-C suspend support because there is risk that erase operation might never finish (121a272)
• Wi-Fi: Removed the definition of the "WIFI_BAND_2G_5G" field in "wifi_band_t". (7b5014a)
• ESP Bluedroid Host: Added new Kconfig option to enable SDP APIs and remove the dependency of SDP on L2CAP Kconfig option
• LWIP / PPP: PPPoS internal callback function has incompatible prototype. Please use esp_netif API or update your function callbacks. (d4f60fe)

Known Issues

• BLE: An BLE assert may occur in the function r_ble_lll_rxbuffer_free_all under low-memory conditions on ESP32-H2.
• For ESP32-C2 ECO4 chips, wifi_scan_threshold_t in wifi_sta_config_t structure is invalid.
• For ESP32-C2 ECO4 chips, when the country policy is set to WIFI_COUNTRY_POLICY_AUTO, the station will not scan for channels outside current country rules.
• Power Management: In light sleep mode, rejecting sleep due to a short duration can introduce an RTC clock error, causing esp_timer inaccuracies and potential Bluetooth disconnections.
• For ESP32, Bluedroid Host memory leaks when HFP client or AG is enabled using HCI audio datapath.

Known issues are planned to be fixed before the final v5.4 release.
