Server: Frame.panel_type (new column + migration) is auto-derived from
the device's reported board (X-Frame-Board), never user-set -- the
panel is a property of the hardware, not a picker in the UI.
image_pipeline's packing/render pipeline is parameterized by panel
geometry instead of hardcoded 800x480 globals, with the real confirmed
13.3in geometry (1600x1200) registered alongside the original 7.3in
panel. Existing 7.3in frames are unaffected (column default + board
mapping both resolve to the original panel).
Board identifiers are also renamed (devkit/xiao -> devkit_esp32c6/
xiao_esp32c6, plus new "ee02") since the EE02 board also carries a XIAO
module -- "xiao" alone stopped disambiguating hardware. The server
keeps accepting the legacy bare names indefinitely for already-flashed
devices.
Firmware: scaffolds a third build target (ee02, ESP32-S3 -- a real
chip-target change, not just a same-chip Kconfig variant like xiao) and
a new epd13in3e driver component skeleton. The actual panel init/LUT/
refresh register sequence isn't ported from vendor demo code yet (none
was available), so that component deliberately fails to compile
(#error) rather than risk sending unverified register values to real
hardware -- devkit/xiao are unaffected and build identically to before.
CI's ee02 build step is continue-on-error for the same reason.
Ports Waveshare's official EPD_7in3e.c register/refresh sequence (the
panel has no public datasheet, so their reference driver is the source of
truth) to an ESP-IDF component using spi_master + gpio instead of the
bcm2835/RPi hardware abstraction the reference targets.
Unlike the reference driver, which toggles CS around every single byte,
this holds CS low for each logical command/data phase and DMAs pixel data
in 4KB chunks -- sending ~192,000 individual one-byte SPI transactions
would make a full refresh impractically slow.
Exposes a streaming API (epd_display_stream, pulling chunks from a
caller-supplied read_fn) so the eventual HTTP fetch path can feed the panel
without holding a full ~192KB frame in RAM, plus an in-memory convenience
wrapper (epd_display_buffer) for cases like the upcoming QR code screen
where buffering the whole frame is fine.
Wired into wifi_provisioning_start() as an init + white-clear for now, to
prove the driver builds/links/runs at the right point in the boot sequence
ahead of the actual QR code content.
