1.20.0rc13 guru meditation

Hi,
I'm getting a guru meditation on my GPy. Not always but repeatable.
boot.py has:
import pycom pycom.heartbeat(False)For main.py this is enough:
from network import Bluetooth import time import structThe fault is:
Guru Meditation Error: Core 0 panic'ed (Cache disabled but cached memory region accessed) Core 0 register dump: PC : 0x401da75c PS : 0x00060c34 A0 : 0x800921e8 A1 : 0x3ffc0970 A2 : 0x00000001 A3 : 0x00000001 A4 : 0xb33fffff A5 : 0x0000cdcd A6 : 0x3ffbdafc A7 : 0x00000000 A8 : 0x8008c97e A9 : 0x00100000 A10 : 0x11640000 A11 : 0x00000001 A12 : 0x00000013 A13 : 0x00000000 A14 : 0x3ffc48fc A15 : 0x00000002 SAR : 0x0000000e EXCCAUSE: 0x00000007 EXCVADDR: 0x00000000 LBEG : 0x00000000 LEND : 0x00000000 LCOUNT : 0x00000000 Core 0 was running in ISR context: EPC1 : 0x40093ee7 EPC2 : 0x00000000 EPC3 : 0x00000000 EPC4 : 0x401da75c Backtrace: 0x401da75c:0x3ffc0970 0x400921e5:0x3ffc0990 0x400929d7:0x3ffc09b0 0x4009271e:0x3ffc09d0 0x4009304f:0x3ffc09f0 0x4008394d:0x3ffc0a10 0x4008a44d:0x3ffd44a0 0x40081efb:0x3ffd44c0and then a core dump (which I can provide if its useful for anyone.
History:
I'm working on some BLE stuff when I suddenly had problems uploading (pymakr in VSC). I then upgraded the firmware to 1.20.1r1 with LittleFS to no avail. Did the 'erase_all' & firmware upload several times to no success. Finally went back to 1.20.0 and here I am.I'm not sure if this is a software or hardware problem. And I don't know how to proceed from here.
Thanks.

Dear @psrebrny,

I also got this type of error, when executing my code.
Did you have the chance to run your code on our custom build [1] already and do you observe any difference?
With kind regards,
Andreas.

@andreas I also got this type of error, when executing my code.

Dear @poesel,
you might want to check out the most recent release of our custom build [1] when coming back to this.
With kind regards,
Andreas.

Dear @poesel,
we found through [1] that the panic keeps popping up. Sorry for that!
@poesel said in 1.20.0rc13 guru meditation:
from network import Bluetooth
import time
import structDoes it really occasionally happen with just that code? We see that you can reliably reproduce the panic using your code you shared at [2]. Unfortunately, we don't have the other device which advertises itself as a ‘HEN’ node so we can't reproduce it on our workbench.
We're just curious about the background and scope of that very problem.

Dear @poesel,
following [1] thoroughly, we brewed another wave of firmware images. So, we would also like to recommend to try [2] and will be happy to hear back from you about this.

Dear @poesel,
@poesel said in 1.20.0rc13 guru meditation:
Guru Meditation Error: Core 0 panic'ed (Cache disabled but cached memory region accessed)A hardware bug of the ESP32 might bite you here [1]. You might want to try [2], compiled with
#define CONFIG_FREERTOS_UNICORE 1. However, we don't really know if this really makes any difference, it's just trial-and-error for now.Additionally, you might want to try to stop your program and the BLE subsystem before uploading.
