Specialize repeater ACL session state, compact recent and flood records, stream Merkle proofs, and release cold OTA buffers safely. Preserve saved formats, stack sizes, table capacities, and OTA source limits. Account for lazy buffers when active and add compatibility, ARM alignment, allocation failure, and queued-response tests.
Validated six representative board/role builds, 1736 native test cases, sanitizer fixtures, and strict documentation. Document the preexisting Wio-E5 Mini flash overflow separately.
Use a bounded timed OTA forwarding cache while preserving echo, queue, TempRadio and forwarding-policy guards. Add opt-in manifest recovery for directly reachable legacy relays and interactive 125 kHz SF5/SF6/SF7 rehearsals, with regression tests and documentation.
hasSeen() was simultaneously a predicate and a mutator — it inserted the
packet hash on every miss, making five call sites that only wanted to mark
a packet as sent call it with the return value discarded.
Split into:
- wasSeen() — pure predicate, no side effects
- markSeen() — explicit insert
All query sites now call markSeen() immediately after wasSeen() returns
false, preserving identical runtime behaviour. The five mark-only send
sites (sendFlood, sendDirect, sendZeroHop x2) now call markSeen directly.
Also fixes three bridge sites (BridgeBase, ESPNowBridge, RS232Bridge)
that had the same query+implicit-insert pattern.
Tests: add test/test_mesh_tables/ covering wasSeen purity, markSeen,
dup stats, and clear. Update SHA256 mock to produce deterministic output
(previously finalize() was a no-op). Add Packet.cpp to native build filter.
