Recover usable ESP32 preferences and channels before permitting replacement; keep identity and ACL persistence transactional and complete.
Preserve MQTT commit boundaries, restore OTA identity and policy after deferred allocation, retain radio gain retries, and reject invalid flood limits. Add production-path fault regressions and CI coverage.
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.
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.
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.
Persist Companion TX preferences per contact and channel. Default repeater,
room, and sensor replies to both active TX profiles, with a reply-only force
option for an RX-only secondary profile. Track both reply copies before a
temporary-radio handoff and account for OTA copies under queue backpressure.
Add bridge/crossover filter modes and the third built-in wardriving filter,
plus compact filter CLI syntax, documentation, and CI coverage.
Fix quoted target names being interpreted as slot/key selectors, partial
recovery of invalid saved reply settings, filter suspension during tempradio2,
and unnecessary packet allocation while OTA traffic is throttled.
Validation: 1,477 native tests, 52 Python integration tests, 29 filter UI tests,
and five firmware builds covering ESP32, nRF52, and STM32 passed.
Add get bluetooth and set bluetooth on|off, with ble aliases. Require another
active management connection before disabling Bluetooth unless off has a
trailing force argument. Keep the toggle local to the current boot.
Drain Bluetooth replies before disconnecting and recheck the remaining
connection before applying a normal shutdown. Enabling Bluetooth cancels a
pending shutdown. Document the commands and add compiled regression coverage
to CI for native USB, HWCDC, UART, network clients, force, and timer rollover.
Validation: CLI, Bluetooth, and USB regression tests passed. XIAO ESP32-S3
and RAK4631 Full Companion builds passed RAM, flash, and capability checks.
Skip redundant modulation writes during owned fast RX retunes when the last
acknowledged SF/BW/CR/LDRO tuple matches. Invalidate that cache after ordinary
setters, failed writes, and lifecycle changes.
Include the remaining scan, preamble, settling, and memory-soak experiments,
their collectors, validation notes, and original capture records. Preserve
capture bytes across checkouts and keep private soak credentials local.
Run lab collector and compiled contract tests in CI. Update the expectation,
profile mapping, and result-buffer tests for the extended lab tools, and make
the private WiFi override header optional for ordinary soak diagnostics.
Validation: 145 host tests passed from the staged source snapshot. Clean
heltec_v4_repeater and Xiao_S3_WIO_companion_radio_usb builds passed their
RAM/flash gates. All 229 staged capture files retain their original bytes;
all 75 local documentation links resolve in the clean snapshot.
Implement radio2, tempradio2, radioat2 and tempradioat2 across Mesh roles,
with RX-only/RX+TX operation, optional preambles and persistent cross-TX
policy. Keep temporary OTA traffic on its profile by default and maintain
independent retry ownership and backoff for each profile.
Use slow-first receive scanning with 4.8-symbol visits and automatic
preambles rounded up in steps of eight. Preserve pending RX, restore power
saving on exit, and discard work bound to changed or expired profiles.
Restore the infrastructure path.hash.mode setter and report unsupported
extra.sf settings consistently. Add CLI, scheduling, scan and retry tests,
setup documentation, and the V4/XIAO hardware validation results.
Validation: 1,422 native tests, eight KISS tests, 63 final focused profile
tests, 18 checks from the staged source, sanitizer-enabled OTA transfers,
and builds for V4 Mesh roles, Full XIAO Companion and nRF52 T1000-E.
Hardware checks cover reception, cross-TX policy, expiry, reboot and OTA
discovery while receiving main-channel adverts.
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.
Default to retained history with a separate pending count, and add persistent display.inbox CLI modes for history, pending, and unread. Preserve browsing while clients are connected and show the active USB or Bluetooth connection.
Fixes#5
Persist separate display modes and timeouts in seconds for battery and USB power, expose four controls in WebConfig and CLI, and apply one shared policy across display-equipped roles.
Detect R8 external power from a USB host or calibrated battery voltage above 4.21 V, with cached sampling and hysteresis. Add policy, persistence, browser, and R8 power-detection regression coverage.
Port the measured RXPS model without changing Cascade wire preambles or automatically enabling experimental levels. Use a spaced weighted median with bounded calibration windows, preserve packet ownership across CAD, and check actual SX126x receive mode before recovery.
Preserve Cascade sleep and radio fixes, integrate the new sensor and board profiles, and correct BSEC script inheritance and the MKE UART pin conflict. Native regressions, production-method/SPI harnesses, and ESP32, nRF52, and STM32 builds pass. Hardware comparison and fault-injection validation are recorded privately.
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.
