Backport the pinned Arduino 2.0.17 HWCDC suffix and interrupt handling into a build-local source copy. Preserve unsent bytes, serialize ISR and producer rearm, and include FIFO, suffix and active writers in transport cleanup proofs without changing the loop stack allocation.
Validate zero and short writes, producer races, quarantine and stale cleanup with sanitizer-backed native tests and negative controls. Keep other frameworks and USB modes on their existing drivers; update the watchdog file mock for the existing buffer API.
A switch can land on an older build: e.g. prod cannot read dev's /mqtt.json,
and prod's M7 image has no Ethernet. Each image carries an ota-compat tag
(state generation + transports). A switch is flashed without rebooting, the
new image's tag is read (bounded by its length), and boot is pointed back at
the running image unless the target keeps this node's state and transports.
CI now requires the tag in every published binary.
Every observer build now carries both channel URLs, so checking for a URL's
presence or absence can no longer tell prod from beta (and the old checks would
reject every build). Read the ota-base-* tags from every .bin in out/ instead
of a single ELF, with URLs shared by build.sh and both workflows.
Use a bounded uzlib-derived block encoder with the existing strict tinf decoder, qualify infrastructure roles, budget temporary RAM, and cache running-image metadata. Add self-serve CLI and policy, USB host-loss sleep grace, hardware test harnesses, regression tests, and CI coverage.
Keep Companion and Terminal Chat profiles unchanged; retain full-sensor and reduced-sensor OTA builds. Add compact crypto and OTA names, qualified display asset compression, font license packaging, and scope regression tests.
Physical LG Android 5.1.1 testing found Chrome 43 could decode gzip but failed on the bootstrap's arrow syntax. Use ES5 functions and Promises while preserving retries, version refresh, and optional abort handling. Keep Google Zopfli gzip compression at 1,000 iterations.
Verified the flashed V4.3 through its WiFi link using the real Android browser: bootstrap and main page gzip responses completed, settings loaded at 910.525 MHz, and no JavaScript or transfer errors were reported. Add a loader syntax regression and document legacy browser support.
Keep the graceful final-ACK TCP close and optional FEM control guards from
pixitha's browser compatibility fixes. Replace Brotli negotiation and duplicate
page assets with one gzip representation compressed by Google Zopfli 0.4.3
using 1,000 iterations. Compress the bootstrap, captive success, compact OTA,
and static WiFi setup pages with the same validated build cache.
Honor gzip quality values and wildcard precedence. Validate compressed OTA
page evidence in the firmware capability gate, and add native and Python
regressions plus CI coverage. Remove the unused Brotli build dependency.
Validation: 54 native tests, 56 Python/browser checks, full V4.3 build and
verified application flash. Actual V4 WiFi responses matched the generated
gzip assets; 30 repeat downloads completed without reboot. Chromium loaded
the setup and settings pages without script or transfer errors. Physical
Android testing is pending because the Pi detects no phone over USB or mDNS.
