Is this bug report about any UI component firmware like InkHUD or Meshtatic UI (MUI)?

• Meshtastic UI aka MUI colorTFT
• InkHUD ePaper
• OLED slide UI on any display

Firmware Version

2.7.12.45f15b8

Description

Hi,

I just tested the unstable 2.7.12.45f15b8 version on multiple nodes. On my RP2040-lora nodes, the firmware just crashes at boot after "READ RTC time as 1".

I traced the code until I found 2 crashes on the modules setup. First was the Input broker (in the HAS_BUTTON condition code), then after I undefined HAS_BUTTON, it crashes on CannedMessageModule setup (in the HAS_SCREEN condition code) , which makes sense because it uses inputbroker.

Anyway, the main problem is that the RP2040-lora does not have any button or screen. So I just undefined these to macros in architecture.h :

#pragma once

#define ARCH_RP2040

#ifndef HAS_BUTTON
#define HAS_BUTTON 1
#endif
#ifndef HAS_TELEMETRY
#define HAS_TELEMETRY 1
#endif
#ifndef HAS_SCREEN
#define HAS_SCREEN 1
#endif
#ifndef HAS_WIRE
#define HAS_WIRE 1
#endif
#ifndef HAS_SENSOR
#define HAS_SENSOR 1
#endif
#ifndef HAS_RADIO
#define HAS_RADIO 1
#endif

#if defined(RPI_PICO)
#define HW_VENDOR meshtastic_HardwareModel_RPI_PICO
#elif defined(RPI_PICO2)
#define HW_VENDOR meshtastic_HardwareModel_RPI_PICO2
#elif defined(RAK11310)
#define HW_VENDOR meshtastic_HardwareModel_RAK11310
#elif defined(SENSELORA_RP2040)
#define HW_VENDOR meshtastic_HardwareModel_SENSELORA_RP2040
#elif defined(RP2040_LORA)
#define HW_VENDOR meshtastic_HardwareModel_RP2040_LORA
#undef HAS_BUTTON
#undef HAS_SCREEN
#elif defined(RP2040_FEATHER_RFM95)
#define HW_VENDOR meshtastic_HardwareModel_RP2040_FEATHER_RFM95
#elif defined(PRIVATE_HW)
#define HW_VENDOR meshtastic_HardwareModel_PRIVATE_HW
#endif

// Detect if running in ISR context (ARM Cortex-M33 / RISC-V)
#define xPortInIsrContext() (__get_current_exception() == 0 ? pdFALSE : pdTRUE)

With only these two undef targeted at RP2040_LORA, Meshtastic was booting and working fine again.

I don't known why it was working before, I did not look at it, so I just give you this information, and let you choose the right way to fix it (maybe there is a new bug in the InputBroker code ?). But in any case, the RP2040-lora does not have button or screen.

Hope this helps !
Thx.
