ESP8266 UNAPI Firmware

ko-fi

Two sample TCP IP UNAPI drivers that work along with this firmware are available at:

(ROM Version) https://github.com/ducasp/MSX-Development/tree/master/MSX-SM/WiFi/UNAPI_BIOS_CUSTOM_ESP_FIRMWARE

(RAM Version, requires Memory Mapper and RAMHELPR by Konamiman) https://github.com/ducasp/MSX-Development/tree/master/MSX-SM/WiFi/UNAPI_DRIVER_CUSTOM_ESP_FIRMWARE

This application is an example of how to set configurations, scan and join networks or update firmware or certificates: https://github.com/ducasp/MSX-Development/tree/master/MSX-SM/WiFi/CFG8266

How to build it

You will need Arduino IDE and install ESP8266 Arduino IDE version 2.7.1. After installing it, you will need to apply some customizations I've made for it, those are available at:

https://github.com/ducasp/ArduinoIDE_ESP8266_Customizations

On Tools menu, choose the "Generic ESP8266 Moudle" board, set the built-in led to the correct GPIO port of your ESP implementation. Make sure to set CPU frequency to 160 MHz, otherwise BearSSL will not have its best performance and also certificates indexation that takes place after new certificates are installed will take much longer.

Adjust flash size accordingly to your device, ESP-01 modules have 1MB, if you use a module with 2MB or more of flash memory, you won't need to upload the certificates after uploading a new firmware. Remember to have a FS of at least 256KB to hold the certificates.

To generate certificate files, use the script available at:

https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/tree/master/libraries/ESP8266WiFi/examples/BearSSL_CertStore

To get the certificates in a single certs.ar file. That file goes to the /data folder of your Arduino IDE project, and you can generate the file system using the following plugin:

https://github.com/esp8266/arduino-esp8266fs-plugin

Just enable logging on your Arduino IDE, and after uploading the filesystem, you can get in the log where the plugin created the bin file to upload to the ESP8266. Copy that file before closing the IDE and that is the file used for OTA or LOCAL update of certificates. There are different ways to do it, but that is the one that worked for me, can't recommend or support other methods. 😝

Project Design Constraints

This firmware was designed taking into consideration that the other end connected to it either has a large 2KB reception buffer OR is fast enough to pick-up data at the desired baud rate without the help of such large buffer.

About

This is a custom firmware that Implements UNAPI v1.1 on an ESP8266, so the MSX / z80 won't have to waste time and can just tunnel requests and re-format responses
