I'm using a BLE controller to control my ESP32. I'm using this library: https://github.com/nkolban/ESP32_BLE_Arduino.
I modified the file FreeRTOS.cpp of the ESP32 package to have a fixed time semaphore as Github users advised it. I replaced all occurencies of xSemaphoreTake(m_semaphore, portMAX_DELAY) by xSemaphoreTake(m_semaphore, 15000UL).
The thing is the ESP32 is struggling to connect to my controller. Sometimes, it connects perfectly but It often gets stuck at line 370. Here is the output of the serial monitor:
17:51:03.046 -> BLE Advertised Device found: Name: VR BOX, Address: ff:ff:20:01:b5:1e, serviceUUID: 00001812-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb

// VRBOX is a handheld Bluetooth BLE device with a joystick and six useful
// buttons. This code shows how to setup the ESP32 as a BLE client to work
// with the VRBOX BLE server. Most of the code is generic to any BLE server.
// The name of the BLE server to search for and the services and characteristics
// are specific to the VRBOX server.
// You can use this code as a primer on how to connect other BLE servers to the
// ESP32 or as the basis of any ESP32 project that you want to control using the
// VRBOX device. The code should work with any ESP32 module.
// The VR BOX server will shut itself off if there is no activity for 5 minutes.
// This will cause the ESP32 to lose the Bluetooth connection and do a reset.
// I bought mine at the local 5 Below store. The box is labeled; "Spektrum VR Control
// Bluetooth RemoteController". I have also seen similar looking devices on the
// Internet for upwards of $20.00. "VR BOX" is the name the device uses to identify
// itself to other bluetooth devices.
// Each defined task requires its own dedicated RAM allocation for its stack
// How much RAM to allocate is determined by how nested the task is and how
// many variables are stored on the stack (local variables). The default size
// defined here is for 5K * 4 bytes/32 bit word, so 20K bytes
// If you are getting;
// JGuru Meditation Error: Core 0 panoc'd (Unhandled debug exception)
// Debug excaption reason: Stack canary watchpoint triggered (task name)
// then increase the TaskStackSize by 1024 until the Stack canary errors stop.
// The ESP32 VROOM module has 288K bytes of RAM.
#define TaskStackSize 5120
// The blue and green LEDs are used to indicate when the ESP32 is scanning for
// BLE servers and when the ESP32 has connected to the BLE server. The LEDs
// can be moved to any GPIO pin (except LED, that is the builtin blue LED) that
// is not input only.
