ECDSA based Secure Boot V2 is not functional for certain input vectors on
ESP32-C5/C61/H2/P4 and on the preview targets ESP32-H4/H21. RSA based Secure
Boot V2 is the recommended scheme where the SoC supports it. This issue will be
fixed in a future hardware ECO revision; more details will be shared through the
hardware errata document.
A new hidden Kconfig option SECURE_BOOT_V2_ECDSA_INSECURE marks the affected
mass-production SoCs (ESP32-C5/C61/H2/P4). On these SoCs, when hardware Secure
Boot V2 is enabled, the ECDSA (V2) signing scheme is no longer offered by
default; it must be turned on explicitly via SECURE_BOOT_V2_FORCE_ENABLE_ECDSA
under "Allow potentially insecure options" (CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT_INSECURE). App
signing without hardware Secure Boot is not affected. Note that ESP32-C61 has no
RSA based Secure Boot V2, so it has no Secure Boot scheme enabled by default.
The preview targets ESP32-H4 and ESP32-H21 mark ECDSA Secure Boot V2 as not
supported in their SoC capabilities instead of using the option above. As
ESP32-H4 has no other Secure Boot V2 scheme, Secure Boot is disabled entirely on
it; ESP32-H21 retains RSA based Secure Boot V2.
The security documentation keeps the ECDSA Secure Boot V2 content visible and
adds a warning describing the limitation (including that ECDSA Secure Boot V2 on
ESP32-C61 is not recommended for production). CI apps that exercise ECDSA Secure
Boot V2 on the affected SoCs set CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT_V2_FORCE_ENABLE_ECDSA
accordingly.
This commit started threaded server to serve multiple clients
simultaneously in individual thread, eliminating the single-threaded
server limitation that caused the device's mid-OTA reconnect to time
out while the previous connection was still being torn down.
SSL is now wrapped per-connection inside the handler thread (in
setup()) so the main accept loop never blocks on a TLS handshake.
Closes IDFCI-3505
(cherry picked from commit 7647d54271)
Recovery bootloader support increased the ESP32-P4 bootloader image enough
that it no longer fits before 0xe000. Moving the partition table to 0x10000
restores slack for CI builds using secure boot and flash encryption together.

The otatool pytest calls dut.serial.close() and then immediately
launches otatool_example.py as a subprocess that re-opens the same
serial port via esptool. This fails intermittently because:
1. pytest-embedded's QueueFeederThread still holds a reference to
the serial port file descriptor when close() returns, causing
'argument must be an int, or have a fileno() method' error.
2. The OS has not fully released the serial port by the time the
subprocess tries to open it.
Add a delay after serial close and retry logic for the subprocess
to handle transient serial port contention.

Replace erase_nvs + SNTP time sync with direct NVS timestamp injection
from the pytest host. This eliminates CI flakiness caused by NTP servers
being unreachable from the CI lab network.
Changes:
- Add write_time_to_nvs() helper that generates an NVS partition image
with the current host timestamp and flashes it to the DUT before each
test. The firmware reads this via the existing update_time_from_nvs()
path and skips SNTP entirely.
- Remove @pytest.mark.parametrize('erase_nvs', ['y']) from all 4
Ethernet-based tests since NVS is now written with valid data.
Replace howsmyssl.com with letsencrypt.org in the https_x509_bundle
example. howsmyssl.com is a third-party server that is frequently
unreachable from CI, causing flaky test failures. letsencrypt.org
chains to the same ISRG Root X1 CA, so the custom certificate bundle
validation coverage is identical.
Since letsencrypt.org was already present in the full bundle URL list,
remove the duplicate entry and reduce MAX_URLS from 9 to 8. All 6
unique root CAs in the stress test are still covered.
For the QEMU stress test, increase per-connection timeout from 30s to
60s and final completion timeout from 60s to 180s. QEMU emulated
network is 3-5x slower than real hardware for TLS handshakes.
