Reject radio changes when receive mode cannot resume and restore the previous physical profile and power policy. Preserve selected folder OTA captures across disconnects and recoverable host I/O failures, while keeping corruption failures distinct. Validate OTA staging input before arithmetic or buffer writes and revoke published data before edits.
Commit companion channels through verified file replacement on ESP32, RP2040, and STM32, and quarantine incomplete startup reads. Recheck the last management connection during delayed wireless changes and prevent conflicting Bluetooth shutdowns. Detect complete OTA implementation sources rather than the shared inflater when configuring release builds.
Add fault-injection regressions and CI coverage for these paths, and document folder capture reconnect behavior.
Validation: 1,510 native tests; 55 host integration checks; build profile regressions; ESP32, nRF52, STM32, and RP2040 firmware builds.
Validate primary images before publishing their views, invalidate the shared source cache before reads that can partially overwrite it, and revoke self-serving references before replacing caller-owned buffers. Keep the CLI serving flag aligned with a surviving primary image after a rejected replacement.
Regression tests reproduce rejected replacements, partial source reads, and self-refresh allocation/read failures. Verify queued manifests, recovered payloads, Merkle proofs, and sanitizer-checked buffer lifetimes.
Integrate ExpressLRS TX module support and its stacked ESP32 heap changes.
Use the approved Linkflow calibration (17-30 dBm), preserve the PA drive
and output path after radio recovery, and keep LoRa OTA enabled.
Preserve stored ACLs and filters on allocation failure, release owned
client/filter buffers, service heap OTA contexts on Companions, release
self-serving workspaces after TempRadio, and reset staged-resume state
when a context is released. Keep manual staging and active operations
alive. Account for all moved allocations in the runtime RAM gate.
Validation: 1,393 native cases; radio-power, heap-context, ACL persistence,
shared-queue transfer, display/inbox, radio receive, and memory regressions.
Firmware builds passed for Linkflow, Heltec V2 Companion, T-Beam MQTT
repeater, Heltec V4 R8 MQTT repeater, RAK4631 repeater, and Indicator Full.
Physical verification awaits access to the currently offline lab Pi.
