Add acknowledged SetFs and packet-cache shortcuts for SX1262, extend the LR1110 FS-mode fast path with buffered SPI, and keep the expander-backed Indicator on its previous path. Include HIL fixtures, validation notes, and regression tests.
Distinguish OTA read failures from missing blocks and select unique raw-flash checkpoints by MID and target. Keep deferred CLI requests and replies bound to immutable command identity and full authenticated keys.
Gate radio mutations on their exact reply delivery, recover coding-rate restoration, and roll back failed Companion preference writes. Preserve accepted low duty cycles across reboot.
Retain partial network writes, cancel displaced client operations, and reject malformed or stalled framed input. Add regression and CI coverage, and size-optimize the RAK4631 Ethernet build without dropping features.
Retain same-IP replies and park one displaced IP backlog for 30 seconds using existing fixed buffers. Cancel old route-owned operations on takeover, preserve partial TCP frames, and cover reconnect isolation and queue limits with regression tests.
Preserve resumed nRF52 flash pages and keep filtered OTA catalogs incomplete until full pages arrive. Bound stuck radio preparation, report companion setting failures, retain safe rollback, and codify conservative advert penalties with regression tests.
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.
Drain received packets in single-profile radio fault backoff as well as
dual-profile mode. Share the normal channel-clear and bounded busy policy
with driver retries so a failed send cannot retry blindly or bypass the
existing single-retry limit.
Retain an unadmitted OTA request flight and count v2 fallback evidence only
after a sparse retry enters the transmit queue. Local queue congestion no
longer disables v2 before a request was sent or discards received fragments.
Include primary airtime when temporary RX-only radio2 crosses requests onto
that channel, keeping response allowances conservative on slower profiles.
Add six native regressions, including five failing-before cases, and document
the queue-admission and crossover timing behavior.
Validation: 1,502 native tests, 29 integration checks, and five firmware
builds passed across ESP32-S3, nRF52, and STM32.
Keep catalog, manifest and leaf requests pending when the local transmit
queue rejects them instead of spending their network retry allowance.
Keep the packet selected before CAD so work becoming due during sensing
cannot bypass its own channel or pacing checks. Retire cancelled radio
retries before waiting for BUSY hardware or their retry deadline.
Wait for active transmission completion before applying firmware. Stop
admitting new transmissions after the apply drain deadline so busy queues
cannot postpone reboot indefinitely, and keep those deadlines armed across
millis rollover. Retain the existing persistence-flush backoff.
Add failing-before/fixed-after regression coverage for all four issues,
including the production OTA apply and TX guards in CI.
Validation: 1,496 native tests, 42 Python integration tests, and five
firmware builds passed across ESP32-S3, nRF52, and STM32 targets.
Add get/set ota.speed and OTA CLI aliases for factors from 0.05 to 3,
defaulting to the existing pace. Persist the setting independently of the
OTA workspace and apply it to OTA packet pacing, relays, discovery and
adverts while retaining the configured airtime budget.
Preserve physical proof/retry allowances, account for both participating
radio profiles, keep optional deadlines armed across millis rollover, and
exclude intentional pacing from observer stale-packet age. Keep local
verification at its normal rate and retain a valid saved speed if backup
recovery cannot finish. Add documentation and CI regression coverage.
Validation: 1,491 native tests and 26 CLI/integration tests passed. Built
ESP32 full repeater, ESP32 full Companion, nRF52 full Companion and STM32
USB Companion successfully, including their memory/size checks.
