34-41: Approve ESP32 Advanced MAC Address Configuration changesThe new feature for reading custom MAC addresses from ESP32 eFuse blocks is well-documented and provides flexibility for users. The option to disable this feature with
ignore_efuse_custom_mac: trueis a good addition for compatibility.Consider adding a note about potential implications of using custom MAC addresses, such as network conflicts if not managed properly, and emphasize that this feature is only supported when using ESP-IDF as the framework.
42-49: Approve CSE7766 Breaking Changes with suggestionThe requirement for even parity in the CSE7766 configuration is a necessary change to ensure consistency and compatibility across different chip versions.
To assist users in transitioning to this new requirement, consider adding:
- Step-by-step migration instructions for existing users.
- An example of the updated configuration with even parity set.
- A troubleshooting section addressing potential issues users might face during the transition.
