## Peripheral Clock Gating

As usual, peripheral clock gating is still handled by driver itself, users do not need to take care of the peripheral module clock gating.

However, for advanced users who implement their own drivers based on `hal` and `soc` components, the previous clock gating include path has been changed from `driver/periph_ctrl.h` to `esp_private/periph_ctrl.h`.

## RTC Subsystem Control

RTC control APIs have been moved from `driver/rtc_cntl.h` to `esp_private/rtc_ctrl.h`.

## ADC

### ADC Oneshot & Continuous Mode Drivers

The ADC oneshot mode driver has been redesigned.

- The new driver is in `esp_adc` component and the include path is `esp_adc/adc_oneshot.h`.

- The legacy driver is still available in the previous include path `driver/adc.h`.

The ADC continuous mode driver has been moved from `driver` component to `esp_adc` component.

- The include path has been changed from `driver/adc.h` to `esp_adc/adc_continuous.h`.

Attempting to use the legacy include path `driver/adc.h` of either driver triggers the build warning below by default. However, the warning can be suppressed by enabling the CONFIG_ADC_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATE_WARN Kconfig option.

    legacy adc driver is deprecated, please migrate to use esp_adc/adc_oneshot.h and esp_adc/adc_continuous.h for oneshot mode and continuous mode drivers respectively

### ADC Calibration Driver

The ADC calibration driver has been redesigned.

- The new driver is in `esp_adc` component and the include path is `esp_adc/adc_cali.h` and `esp_adc/adc_cali_scheme.h`.

Legacy driver is still available by including `esp_adc_cal.h`. However, if users still would like to use the include path of the legacy driver, users should add `esp_adc` component to the list of component requirements in CMakeLists.txt.

Attempting to use the legacy include path `esp_adc_cal.h` triggers the build warning below by default. However, the warning can be suppressed by enabling the CONFIG_ADC_CALI_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATE_WARN Kconfig option.

    legacy adc calibration driver is deprecated, please migrate to use esp_adc/adc_cali.h and esp_adc/adc_cali_scheme.h

### API Changes

- The ADC power management APIs `adc_power_acquire` and `adc_power_release` have made private and moved to `esp_private/adc_share_hw_ctrl.h`.

  > - The two APIs were previously made public due to a HW errata workaround.

  > - Now, ADC power management is completely handled internally by drivers.

  > - Users who still require this API can include `esp_private/adc_share_hw_ctrl.h` to continue using these functions.

- `driver/adc2_wifi_private.h` has been moved to `esp_private/adc_share_hw_ctrl.h`.

- Enums `ADC_UNIT_BOTH`, `ADC_UNIT_ALTER`, and `ADC_UNIT_MAX` in `adc_unit_t` have been removed.

- The following enumerations have been removed as some of their enumeration values are not supported on all chips. This would lead to the driver triggering a runtime error if an unsupported value is used.

  > - Enum `ADC_CHANNEL_MAX`

  > - Enum `ADC_ATTEN_MAX`

  > - Enum `ADC_CONV_UNIT_MAX`

- API `hall_sensor_read` on ESP32 has been removed. Hall sensor is no longer supported on ESP32.

- API `adc_set_i2s_data_source` and `adc_i2s_mode_init` have been deprecated. Related enum `adc_i2s_source_t` has been deprecated. Please migrate to use `esp_adc/adc_continuous.h`.

- API `adc_digi_filter_reset`, `adc_digi_filter_set_config`, `adc_digi_filter_get_config` and `adc_digi_filter_enable` have been removed. These APIs behaviours are not guaranteed. Enum `adc_digi_filter_idx_t`, `adc_digi_filter_mode_t` and structure `adc_digi_iir_filter_t` have been removed as well.

- API `esp_adc_cal_characterize` has been deprecated, please migrate to `adc_cali_create_scheme_curve_fitting` or `adc_cali_create_scheme_line_fitting` instead.

- API `esp_adc_cal_raw_to_voltage` has been deprecated, please migrate to `adc_cali_raw_to_voltage` instead.

- API `esp_adc_cal_get_voltage` has been deprecated, please migrate to `adc_oneshot_get_calibrated_result` instead.

## GPIO

- The previous Kconfig option RTCIO_SUPPORT_RTC_GPIO_DESC has been removed, thus the `rtc_gpio_desc` array is unavailable. Please use `rtc_io_desc` array instead.

- The user callback of a GPIO interrupt should no longer read the GPIO interrupt status register to get the GPIO's pin number of triggering the interrupt. You should use the callback argument to determine the GPIO's pin number instead.

  > - Previously, when a GPIO interrupt occurs, the GPIO's interrupt status register is cleared after calling the user callbacks. Thus, it was possible for users to read the GPIO's interrupt status register inside the callback to determine which GPIO was used to trigger the interrupt.

  > - However, clearing the interrupt status register after calling the user callbacks can potentially cause edge-triggered interrupts to be lost. For example, if an edge-triggered interrupt is triggered/retriggered while the user callbacks are being called, that interrupt will be cleared without its registered user callback being handled.

  > - Now, the GPIO's interrupt status register is cleared before invoking the user callbacks. Thus, users can no longer read the GPIO interrupt status register to determine which pin has triggered the interrupt. Instead, users should use the callback argument to pass the pin number.

## Timer Group Driver

Timer Group driver has been redesigned into GPTimer, which aims to unify and simplify the usage of general purpose timer.

Although it is recommended to use the new driver APIs, the legacy driver is still available in the previous include path `driver/timer.h`. However, by default, including `driver/timer.h` triggers the build warning below. The warning can be suppressed by the Kconfig option CONFIG_GPTIMER_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATE_WARN.

    legacy timer group driver is deprecated, please migrate to driver/gptimer.h

The major breaking changes in concept and usage are listed as follows:

### Breaking Changes in Concepts

- `timer_group_t` and `timer_idx_t` which used to identify the hardware timer are removed from user's code. In the new driver, a timer is represented by `gptimer_handle_t`.

- Definition of timer clock source is moved to `gptimer_clock_source_t`, the previous `timer_src_clk_t` is not used.

- Definition of timer count direction is moved to `gptimer_count_direction_t`, the previous `timer_count_dir_t` is not used.

- Only level interrupt is supported, `timer_intr_t` and `timer_intr_mode_t` are not used.

- Auto-reload is enabled by set the `gptimer_alarm_config_t::auto_reload_on_alarm` flag. `timer_autoreload_t` is not used.

### Breaking Changes in Usage

- Timer initialization is done by creating a timer instance from `gptimer_new_timer()`. Basic configurations like clock source, resolution and direction should be set in `gptimer_config_t`. Note that, specific configurations of alarm events are not needed during the installation stage of the driver.

- Alarm event is configured by `gptimer_set_alarm_action()`, with parameters set in the `gptimer_alarm_config_t`.

- Setting and getting count value are done by `gptimer_set_raw_count()` and `gptimer_get_raw_count()`. The driver does not help convert the raw value into UTC time-stamp. Instead, the conversion should be done from user's side as the timer resolution is also known to the user.

- The driver will install the interrupt service as well if `gptimer_event_callbacks_t::on_alarm` is set to a valid callback function. In the callback, users do not have to deal with the low level registers (like "clear interrupt status", "re-enable alarm event" and so on). So functions like `timer_group_get_intr_status_in_isr` and `timer_group_get_auto_reload_in_isr` are not used anymore.

- To update the alarm configurations when alarm event happens, one can call `gptimer_set_alarm_action()` in the interrupt callback, then the alarm will be re-enabled again.

- Alarm will always be re-enabled by the driver if `gptimer_alarm_config_t::auto_reload_on_alarm` is set to true.

## Temperature Sensor Driver

The temperature sensor driver has been redesigned and it is recommended to use the new driver. However, the old driver is still available but cannot be used with the new driver simultaneously.

The new driver can be included via `driver/temperature_sensor.h`. The old driver is still available in the previous include path `driver/temp_sensor.h`. However, including `driver/temp_sensor.h` triggers the build warning below by default. The warning can be suppressed by enabling the menuconfig option CONFIG_TEMP_SENSOR_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATE_WARN.

    legacy temperature sensor driver is deprecated, please migrate to driver/temperature_sensor.h

Configuration contents has been changed. In the old version, users need to configure `clk_div` and `dac_offset`. While in the new version, users only need to choose `tsens_range`.

The process of using temperature sensor has been changed. In the old version, users can use `config->start->read_celsius` to get value. In the new version, users should install the temperature sensor driver firstly, by `temperature_sensor_install` and uninstall it when finished. For more information, please refer to Temperature Sensor .

## LCD

- The LCD panel initialization flow is slightly changed. Now the `esp_lcd_panel_init()` will not turn on the display automatically. User needs to call `esp_lcd_panel_disp_on_off()` to manually turn on the display. Note, this is different from turning on backlight. With this breaking change, user can flash a predefined pattern to the screen before turning on the screen. This can help avoid random noise on the screen after a power on reset.

- `esp_lcd_panel_disp_off()` is deprecated, please use `esp_lcd_panel_disp_on_off()` instead.

- `dc_as_cmd_phase` is removed. The SPI LCD driver currently does not support a 9-bit SPI LCD. Please always use a dedicated GPIO to control the LCD D/C line.

- The way to register RGB panel event callbacks has been moved from the `esp_lcd_rgb_panel_config_t` into a separate API `esp_lcd_rgb_panel_register_event_callbacks()`. However, the event callback signature is not changed.

- Previous `relax_on_idle` flag in `esp_lcd_rgb_panel_config_t` has been renamed into `esp_lcd_rgb_panel_config_t::refresh_on_demand`, which expresses the same meaning but with a clear name.

- If the RGB LCD is created with the `refresh_on_demand` flag enabled, the driver will not start a refresh in the `esp_lcd_panel_draw_bitmap()`. Now users have to call `esp_lcd_rgb_panel_refresh()` to refresh the screen by themselves.

- `esp_lcd_color_space_t` is deprecated, please use `lcd_color_space_t` to describe the color space, and use `lcd_rgb_element_order_t` to describe the data order of RGB color.

## Dedicated GPIO Driver

- All of the dedicated GPIO related Low Level (LL) functions in `cpu_ll.h` have been moved to `dedic_gpio_cpu_ll.h` and renamed.

## Register Access Macros

Previously, all register access macros could be used as expressions, so the following was allowed:

    uint32_t val = REG_SET_BITS(reg, bits, mask);

In ESP-IDF v5.0, register access macros which write or read-modify-write the register can no longer be used as expressions, and can only be used as statements. This applies to the following macros: `REG_WRITE`, `REG_SET_BIT`, `REG_CLR_BIT`, `REG_SET_BITS`, `REG_SET_FIELD`, `WRITE_PERI_REG`, `CLEAR_PERI_REG_MASK`, `SET_PERI_REG_MASK`, `SET_PERI_REG_BITS`.

To store the value which would have been written into the register, split the operation as follows:

    uint32_t new_val = REG_READ(reg) | mask;
    REG_WRITE(reg, new_val);

To get the value of the register after modification (which may be different from the value written), add an explicit read:

    REG_SET_BITS(reg, bits, mask);
    uint32_t new_val = REG_READ(reg);
