The
wifi.radio
singleton object, which is in static storage, was not included in GC scanning. It does include one Python object.It could have been added to
ROOT_POINTERS
, but instead I added a module-specific GC routine, as has been done in, for example,displayio
and_bleio
for similar static objects.I hoped this might fix the ESP32-S2 I2C/WiFi hang. It didn't, sadly. But I think this is still necessary, unless my understanding about what needs to be scanned for GC is confused. (I keep having to re-derive this in my head.)
