Move OTA_HEAP_CONTEXT from two hand-edited envs to a pre-script gated on
build.mcu == "esp32", so every classic ESP32 image gets it and none can drift.
S2/S3/C-series and nRF52 keep the .bss singleton: they have no equivalent
static-DRAM ceiling, so there a guaranteed-present workspace is the better
trade for what is ultimately a recovery path. It has to be a build flag rather
than a header default, because OTA_HEAP_CONTEXT must hold the same value in
every translation unit that sees OtaContext.h - OtaContext.cpp included - and a
header test on CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32 would depend on include order relative
to sdkconfig.h. The script defers to OTA_SHARED_COMPANION_QUEUE where a Full
Companion recipe already owns the storage.
Fix a gap this exposes in the roles that now use it. Only CLI entry points
acquire the context, so once it was released, a repeater with the temporary
radio profile up would no longer serve or announce its own firmware - LoRa OTA
would look enabled and silently do nothing. ota_service_temp_radio_context()
holds the workspace for exactly the temp-radio window and hands it back
outside it, which is where the saving was coming from anyway. Wired into the
repeater, room server and sensor loops; the Companion keeps its own
acquire-on-host-demand policy, since its context is borrowed from the offline
message queue and must not be taken speculatively.
Static DRAM, classic ESP32 (bytes occupied of a 124,580 region):
Heltec_v2_repeater 108,332 -> 70,732
Heltec_v2_room_server 83,716 -> 68,300
Heltec_v2_companion_radio_ble 123,236 -> 107,772 (was failing on main)
Tbeam_SX1262_repeater 86,932 -> 71,468
Tbeam_SX1262_repeater_observer_mqtt 121,132 -> 83,532 (was failing)
Bind Companion replies to request transports, make dual-CDC USB sessions nonblocking and reconnect-safe, and harden nRF52 watchdog/OTA storage paths. Fix T096 button debounce, display wake, sleep races, and the compact message layout; add exact WisBlock OTA profiles plus expanded native/static/HIL documentation.
Reserve board-specific GPIOs, make ESP-NOW channel/format handling configurable, and coordinate WiFi, BLE, NTP, MQTT, and host actions safely.
Add the Indicator message page, exclusive transport selector, dynamic 480/320 rendering, larger transport typography, pairing cleanup, and corresponding tests and documentation.
Add durable TempRadio, ACL, clock, bridge, GPS/I2C, USB logging, and Indicator recovery safeguards together with expanded automation, build/profile contracts, release metadata, and the hardware validation ledger.
Add selectable shared ESP-NOW channels, raw/wrapped bridge compatibility, and bounded fragmentation for maximum-size packets.\n\nGive ESP32 Full profiles WiFi coexistence, stabilize WebConfig and USB terminal lifecycles, and keep disabled bridges stopped during observer updates.\n\nUpdate generated UI, firmware selection, documentation, and regression coverage.
Adapt the validated fan thermostat, battery ADC calibration, GPS baud, SX1262 register patch, and 1700us PA ramp behavior from mintylinux/Meshcore-T-beam-1W-Firmware to the current board architecture. Also make Arduino 3 full-build dependency switching reliable after standard ESP32 builds and guard the release hardware contract with regression coverage.
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.
Adding build_date to the WebConfigServer constructor broke every
*_room_server_observer_mqtt target: simple_room_server constructs the portal as
well, and only simple_repeater was updated. Nothing caught it because every
build run to that point had been a repeater target.
