Release cached path snapshots before resetting contacts while retaining the requesting transport and table revision for a complete stream restart. Keep explicit session cancellation unchanged and avoid copying uncached contact buffers.
Cover cached and uncached recovery, transport isolation, empty reloads, backpressure, and the former cancellation as a negative control.
Recheck cached immutable paths before resetting the live table after raw I/O failure. Keep accepted RAM mutations, current jobs and save deadlines when reads recover; stronger source or publication uncertainty still forces full recovery. Use the existing recovery byte and a fixed scratch buffer, with no cache allocation or eviction.
Cover full-cache transient recovery, persistent I/O and checksum failures, nRF unread-scope restoration, active ESP jobs, real uncertain publication and unchanged lazy deadlines with sanitizer tests and restored-reset negative controls.
Do not classify legacy or page-name stat errors as unread payloads. Keep candidate contact files unchanged, retry source selection, and use bounded volatile operation if authority remains unknown. Cover legacy absence, downgrade leftovers, cleanup-time metadata recovery and persistent faults with actual-source sanitizer tests and restored-bug negative controls.
Verify fallback namespace moves before accepting publication or rollback. Reload readable contact images at a safe host boundary, discard only unreadable contact data after bounded retries, and permit volatile operation when storage cannot recover. Preserve unrelated stores and fail explicit durability requests truthfully.
Keep existing flash, RAM, OTA and capability limits by streaming nRF52 preferences through the validated wire table and sharing identical contact deadline resets. Add fault-injection, sanitizer, legacy-image parity and CLI lifecycle regressions.
Keep tracked reply generations stable in feature-off builds as well as optional transport builds. After ACK copies drain, let expired temporary profiles restore saved settings while failed permanent commits stay staged and retry.
Cover packet generations, rollover, persistent commit faults, cancellation and eventual commit across feature-off, Meshtext and Ethernet configurations. Document ACK ownership and post-reply storage retry behavior.
Run DHCP and renewal in a cooperative worker, bound socket commands, and retain SPI ownership until cleanup is safe. Preserve framing deadlines, response ownership and whole-frame replay, including pending-ACK queue pinning.
Budget the worker additively and retain all OTA names with an exact-checked Full-only compact index. Add full-driver, sanitizer, queue, shutdown, storage and memory regression coverage.
Delay automatic GPS-free NodeInfo until a quiet TX gap, invalidate stale metadata after durable node renames, and refresh the profile when same-tuple publication releases its busy guard. Cover the real Companion methods and document the behavior.
Integrate upstream 1.18.0, delayed direct ACK forwarding, zero-scope routing, Waveshare LR1121 and dynamic WiFi variants. Preserve fork chemistry-aware power management and bounded multi-interface UI; retain retry/dedup safety while adding upstream ACK delay. Qualify LR1121 band power and HP-only Morse handling with native regressions.
