Extended rules (up to 8 rules-sets)

[barbudor]

Description:

Related issue (if applicable): fixes #15832

This PR add the capability to extended rules up to 8 rules set.

• The 5 new additional rules requires USE_UFILESYS in order to save the rules to a file (and restore at boot). Without filesystem, the extended rules work but would not be saved.
• All Rules features are supported including compression.
• All extended rules are also 512 bytes as the original ones.

NOTE : Because some constants have to be updated before user_config_override.h is included, this feature cannot be simply enabled from user_config_override.h. It requires a dedicated environment in platformio_tasmota_cenv.ini

Exemple with ESP8266, 4MB flash with 2MB filesystem (USE_UFILESYS is implicit when using an ESP8266 board > 1M):

[env:tasmota-rulesext4m]
build_flags             = ${env.build_flags} -DUSE_RULES_EXTENDED
board                   = esp8266_4M2M

Exemple with ESP32, 4MB flash with 320KB filesystem (USE_UFILESYS is implicit when using ESP32):

[env:tasmota32-rulesext4m]
extends                 = env:tasmota32_base
build_flags             = ${env:tasmota32_base.build_flags} -DUSE_RULES_EXTENDED

Flash usage: +460 bytes, not counting the mandatory filesystem
Ram usage: + 2648 bytes

Nice solution. Let Alex do some tests especially on 1M devices ;-)

[Jason2866]

@AleXSR700 We are waiting for your feedback :-)

[AleXSR700]

Sorry everyone. I thought it had been tested internally already, so I did not run a "proper" test protocol.

I will do so once I get back from my vacation. :)

No more bump?
It would be really great to have extended rules storage for ESP8266.

[barbudor]

The branch is still available if you want to test and report, we could reopen

Thank you barbudor for your quick answer.
I am not sure I would be able to proceed, I do not have enough technical knowledge yet...
