On dual-core ESP32-S3 (ARDUINO_RUNNING_CORE=1), the Arduino loop and
LoRa processing run exclusively on core 1. ESP-IDF v4 creates mqtt_task
with tskNO_AFFINITY, meaning FreeRTOS may schedule them on core 1 under
load, preempting the LoRa loop.
ESP-IDF v4 provides no public API to change a task's core affinity after
creation (vTaskCoreAffinitySet is IDF v5+ only), and the esp_mqtt_client
config struct has no task_core_id field. The precompiled Arduino-ESP32
framework cannot be patched via sdkconfig.
Instead, use the GCC/LD --wrap linker mechanism to intercept every call
to xTaskCreatePinnedToCore. Any task created with tskNO_AFFINITY is
redirected to core 0. Tasks that are already explicitly pinned (Wi-Fi
driver, LwIP, httpd, esp_timer, ipc0/ipc1) are passed through unchanged.
We intentionally do not filter by task name. Pinning all unpinned tasks
makes the approach robust against internal ESP-IDF task name changes and
catches any future tasks that may be added with tskNO_AFFINITY.
Verified task layout after the change:
loopTask pri=1 core=1 (Arduino loop / LoRa — unchanged)
mqtt_task pri=5 core=0 (was tskNO_AFFINITY, now pinned)
httpd pri=2 core=0 (core_id set explicitly in WebPanelServer)
tiT pri=18 core=0 (LwIP, already pinned by ESP-IDF)
wifi pri=23 core=0 (Wi-Fi driver, already pinned)
esp_timer pri=22 core=0 (already pinned)
ipc0/ipc1 pri=24 core=0/1 (IPC, already pinned per-core)
The -Wl,--wrap flag and arch/esp32/task_pinning.c are added only to
[esp32_base] (IDF v4). The ESP32-C6 pioarduino target (IDF v5) is
unaffected and can use vTaskCoreAffinitySet() if needed in the future.
Patches Bluefruit library to fix semaphore leak bug that causes device lockup
when BLE central disconnects unexpectedly (e.g., going out of range, supervision timeout).

it seems that if the LR1110 radio hears a packet corrupted in a specific way, it'll report a packet of 0 length and with the header error IRQ set. every packet received afterwards will then be shifted to the right by 4 bytes on top of the radio's reported offset. this can occur multiple times with the shift increasing by 4 bytes each time. thus, this patch will read from an additional offset after hearing the trigger packet.
transmitting seems to reset the shift - unsure exactly what operation resets it but standby() is called after tx so patch assumes shift is 0 after standby(). more investigation may be needed here.
