Payloads of 166 or 167 bytes previously passed the frame-sized bound
(MAX_CHANNEL_DATA_LENGTH = 167) but were rejected by sendGroupData
against MAX_GROUP_DATA_LENGTH (165), causing ERR_CODE_TABLE_FULL (retry
later) to be returned instead of ERR_CODE_ILLEGAL_ARG.
Fixes#3345
- scope the serial config CLI to RP2040; it was exposing the rescue CLI
(cat/rm/erase) on every ESP32 WiFi build, which gates it behind a
physical long-press
- bound and space out RP2040 rejoins: the core's join busy-waits, so cap
it at 5s and retry every 30s instead of every 10s
- stamp the reconnect timer in setup(), so the first loop() doesn't tear
down an association that is still finishing DHCP
- treat stored credentials as a pair, and pass NULL (not "") for an open
network
- teach build_as_lib.py where SerialWifiInterface moved
Store ssid/pwd in NodePrefs and set them with 'set wifi.ssid' /
'set wifi.pwd' over USB serial; build-time WIFI_SSID/WIFI_PWD stay as
the fallback. Headless WiFi builds get the config CLI on Serial, which
is otherwise unused there.
The serial command buffers must stay NUL-terminated within their
bounds: if they ever aren't, strlen() can return >= sizeof(command)
and the read loop would index past the buffer. Additionally, a full
buffer now becomes a completed line (end-of-line marker placed
inside the buffer, NUL terminator kept) instead of overwriting the
terminator and silently corrupting the buffer for the next pass.
Applies to the serial CLI readers of the repeater, room server,
sensor and secure chat examples, and to the CLI rescue reader of
the companion example.

Brings in the external FEM gain preferences (fem_txgain, PR #3137 plus the
companion-side port), the AGC reset rxgain fix, the LR2021 preamble/IRQ
timeout logic, and assorted variant fixes (T096, T-Echo Card TCXO, promicro
pinmap, minewsemi, R1 Neo).
Conflict resolutions:
- SH1106Display: both sides fixed T-Beam Supreme startup independently. Kept
our _initialized guard and DISPLAY_ADDRESS_ALT override, took upstream's
SA0-pair fallback and its unconditional display.begin() so the frame buffer
is allocated even when no panel answers.
- MyMesh/SensorMesh/CommonCLI: took upstream's fem_txgain default and wiring,
kept our comments and the observer-side prefs layout.
Also fixes CustomLLCC68Wrapper, which upstream missed when sx126xResetAGC
gained its rx_boost_gain parameter. No variant builds that wrapper today, so
neither tree failed to compile.
Introduced consistent preferences for external LoRa FEM RX and TX gain settings in NodePrefs. Updated companion MyMesh to apply these settings during initialization and transmission. Added unit tests to verify the round-trip serialization of these new preferences.
Picks up upstream MeshCore 1.17.0 and the dev commits that followed it.
Notable upstream content:
- 1.17.0 version/build-date bump in the example MyMesh headers.
- anon_req hardening: reply_path_len is now uint8_t with an isValidPathLen()
bounds check and a 0xFF sentinel; reply_path_hash_size is gone.
- LR2021 support (Meshnology W12, Seeed MeshTracker X1) incl. side detectors,
multi-SF and the new `extra.sf` get/set CLI.
- CustomLFS 0.2.2 -> 0.2.3 (GD25Q64C support).
- kiss_modem envs for several nRF52 variants; ThinkNode M6 GPS/flash fixes.
Conflicts resolved:
- platformio.ini: took upstream's CustomLFS 0.2.3, kept our lib_ignore for
the vendored PsychicMqttClient.
- CommonCLI.h: kept both upstream's USE_LR2021 configSideDetectors() hook and
our fault-alert callbacks.
NodePrefs gains upstream's extra_sf[4], which is not registered with
ConfigSerializer, so /prefs.json layout is unchanged.
Verified: 275/275 native host tests pass; Heltec_v3_repeater_observer_mqtt,
Heltec_v3_repeater and heltec_v4_repeater_observer_mqtt all build.
Absorbs 106 upstream commits. Seven files conflicted; the substantive one
was upstream's new JSON ConfigSerializer (PR #2982), which replaces the
binary /com_prefs layout with /prefs.json and makes NodePrefs a
ConfigSerializer subclass.
Prefs migration
- Adopt upstream's ConfigSerializer. writeCommonPrefsImage() and its
documented offsets (0-294) are deleted, along with the now-unreachable
saveCommonPrefsImageAtomically()/CommonPrefsFileStore atomic rename path.
- Load order is /prefs.json, then /com_prefs, then /node_prefs. Upstream
dropped the /node_prefs fallback; it is restored here so devices that
never advanced past that filename keep their config.
- Legacy files are never removed, so migration cannot destroy its own
source and a deferred or failed save simply retries next boot.
- /com_prefs is treated as a format migration only, not an "upgrade", so
it does not trip the bridge.source tx->rx flip on existing nodes.
- The MQTTPrefsAtomicStore legacy gate is retained: the observer tail
recovered from an old-format file still commits to /mqtt_prefs before
/prefs.json is written.
- MQTTPrefs and /mqtt_prefs are untouched; savePrefs keeps its save_mqtt
parameter and now returns upstream's bool.
Fixes to upstream code
- RadioPrefs::structure() bound both "rxgain" and "fem_rxgain" to
rx_boosted_gain, so radio_fem_rxgain was never persisted. Bound to the
correct field.
- discovery_mod_timestamp was dropped from structure(); it gates
'since'-filtered DISCOVER replies and is set on every config change, so
losing it would silently stop discovery responses after a reboot. Added
as "disc_mod".
Merge artifacts repaired
- Restored bblanchon/ArduinoJson to the native test env; a clean but wrong
auto-merge at the lib_deps block boundary dropped it and broke all 19
host test suites.
- Migrated the fork's WebConfig UITask screens off the removed
DisplayDriver::Color enum to upstream's UIColor element types.
- Removed duplicate getCADEnabled() definitions in companion MyMesh.cpp
and simple_sensor SensorMesh.cpp that both sides had added.
- Dropped memset(&_prefs, 0, ...) in the four example meshes; NodePrefs now
has a vtable. guard gains an initializer that memset used to provide.
Other resolutions
- simple_room_server keeps both the fork's discover.* commands and
upstream's new room.post.
- docs/payloads.md taken from upstream, undoing content earlier merges had
reverted (Control data section, split login tables).
Verified: 273/273 host tests pass across native and native_kiss_modem;
Heltec v3 repeater, repeater_observer_mqtt, room_server_observer_mqtt,
sensor, and companion_radio_ble all build clean.
First upstream merge since the 2026-06-06 base (191 upstream commits). 14 files
conflicted; resolutions below.
Fleet-critical check (Constraint 1): upstream reordered NodePrefs members
(rx_boosted_gain / path_hash_mode moved to the struct tail) but did NOT change
/com_prefs. Persistence is written field-by-field at explicit offsets, so member
order is in-memory only. Verified the fork's writeCommonPrefsImage() is
byte-identical to upstream's inline writer at every offset (79 pad, 121, 122,
290-294). No migration needed.
Resolutions:
- CommonCLI.h: kept the fork's NodePrefs (superset) and adopted upstream's
setRxBoostedGain(bool)->bool signature change, which CommonCLI.cpp now uses to
report unsupported. Corrected a stale comment claiming rx_boosted_gain lives at
offset 79 (it is a pad; the field is at 290).
- CommonCLI.cpp: kept the fork's legacy /com_prefs migration and the extracted
writeCommonPrefsImage() call.
- UITask.cpp: three-way merge - upstream's drawTextCentered + powering-off
screen, plus the fork's WITH_WEBCONFIG portal/reboot screens.
- ESP32Board.cpp, MeshCore.h, platformio.ini: kept both sides (fork OTA additions
alongside upstream powerOff/enterDeepSleep and Packet.cpp).
- MicroNMEALocationProvider.h: took upstream's claim/release and added the
_claims member they depend on.
- MyMesh.cpp/.h (repeater + room server): kept the fork's superset defaults.
- Removed duplicate declarations auto-merge produced: RadioLibWrapper::_cad_enabled
and MyMesh::getCADEnabled().
Verification: native suite 15/15 (incl. upstream's new test_mesh_tables), both
MQTT smoke builds green, ArduinoJson pin check passes. Hardware validation next.
companion_radio has its own NodePrefs without radio_fem_rxgain (matching
upstream, which doesn't wire companion either), so the startup call added in
e905451d broke every companion build:
MyMesh.cpp:973: error: 'struct NodePrefs' has no member named 'radio_fem_rxgain'
It went unnoticed behind the pre-existing companion build failures.
Also port upstream's FEM LNA overrides for heltec_t096 and heltec_tracker_v2
verbatim (board overrides + isLNAEnabled/const getters), so all three boards
upstream wires now match instead of reporting unsupported. Both variant files
compile; those targets still fail overall on the pre-existing non-observer
MQTT-source build-config issue (unchanged with this work stashed).
Completes the FEM RX-gain restoration begun in the CAD/prefs change, which
persisted radio_fem_rxgain but didn't yet drive the hardware. Also dropped
by the 22eb9b87 revert; restored to match upstream.
- MainBoard: setLoRaFemLnaEnabled()/canControlLoRaFemLna()/isLoRaFemLnaEnabled()
virtuals (default: can't control — non-FEM boards report unsupported)
- heltec_v4: board overrides driving loRaFEMControl; LoRaFEMControl gains the
isLNAEnabled() getter (it already tracked lna_enabled and drove the FEM)
- CLI: `set radio.fem.rxgain on/off` / `get radio.fem.rxgain` (guarded by
canControlLoRaFemLna, so it reports "unsupported" on non-FEM boards)
- app startup applies the persisted pref: board.setLoRaFemLnaEnabled(
_prefs.radio_fem_rxgain), beside setRxBoostedGainMode
Default is ON (upstream), so on FEM boards the LNA is enabled after upgrade —
a real reception behavior change to confirm on hardware. The other FEM
variants (heltec_t096/tower_v2/tracker_v2) need the same small board-override
addition; until then `radio.fem.rxgain` reports unsupported there (no
regression — status quo).
Builds: heltec_v4 repeater-observer + room-observer (FEM board), Heltec_v3
repeater (non-FEM, base virtuals no-op). NEEDS on-device validation on a
Heltec V4.
Continues restoring features dropped by the 22eb9b87 revert. Both were
upstream-tested code, not intentional fork removals.
CAD (hardware Channel Activity Detection / listen-before-talk before TX),
fully restored and functional:
- NodePrefs.cad_enabled + `set cad on/off` / `get cad` CLI (default off)
- RadioLibWrapper: _cad_enabled + setCADEnabled() + the scanChannel()/CAD
branch in isChannelActive() (Phase 1 already restored the Dispatcher hook)
- getCADEnabled() overrides in the repeater/room/sensor apps (return the
pref) and companion (always on, matching upstream)
radio_fem_rxgain: the NodePrefs field + /com_prefs persistence are restored
here at upstream's exact offsets (293 fem, 294 cad), which makes /com_prefs
byte-identical to upstream through the tail. The field is persisted and
defaults on (upstream default), but the per-board LNA *driving* + the
`radio.fem.rxgain` CLI are deferred to the FEM-hardware change (they depend
on board methods and want per-board bench testing).
The new-format /com_prefs tail grows from 3 to 5 bytes; the old-format
detection threshold and the host migration harness are updated accordingly
(all scenarios pass, incl. the non-MQTT-build variant).
Builds: Heltec_v3 repeater, repeater-observer, room-observer. (sensor /
plain-room / companion fail only on the pre-existing Timezone.h include
issue, unrelated to these changes.)
