The room server never supported RX boosted gain, while the repeater
does. Three consequences on SX1262/SX1268 boards:
- boosted gain was never applied to the radio at boot, so a room server
ran in power-saving RX mode while an identical repeater ran boosted -
a real receive-sensitivity difference with nothing pointing at it
- _prefs.rx_boosted_gain was never initialised (the prefs are memset to
0 before defaults are set), so it defaulted to off
- 'set radio.rxgain on' replied "Error: unsupported" but CommonCLI had
already written the value to prefs and saved them, so a stale setting
survived reboot and was never applied
Mirror the repeater's implementation: initialise the pref default under
the same USE_SX1262/USE_SX1268 and SX126X_RX_BOOSTED_GAIN guards, apply
it during radio init, and override setRxBoostedGain() so the CLI reports
success and takes effect.
Built Heltec_v3_room_server (SX1262) and LilyGo_T3S3_sx1276_room_server
(guards compile out cleanly).
Implement SNMP functionality in MyMesh to provide radio diagnostics
and statistics updates. This includes a new method for formatting
radio diagnostic replies and periodic updates to the SNMP agent
with radio stats, enhancing monitoring capabilities for users
with SNMP enabled.
Add functionality to schedule deferred OTA updates in the MyMesh class.
This includes a new member variable to track the update time and a method
to initiate the update process, allowing for a smoother OTA experience
by managing timing and state transitions effectively.
Cherry-picked from observer-firmware (76f44d7d). Resolved a conflict in
loop() where the WITH_WEBCONFIG block occupies the same anchor and shares
an identical closing tail; both blocks retained.
Add support for neighbor discovery and management in the MyMesh class.
This includes structures for neighbor information, methods for handling
neighbor advertisements, and control data reception. The new features
allow for dynamic neighbor management, enhancing the mesh network's
capabilities. Additionally, the maximum number of neighbors is set to
50 across various platform configurations.
The 2026-07-19 upstream merge auto-merged two additions into the same class
bodies without conflicting, producing duplicate declarations:
examples/simple_room_server/MyMesh.h - getCADEnabled()
variants/heltec_v4/HeltecV4Board.h - setLoRaFemLnaEnabled(),
canControlLoRaFemLna(),
isLoRaFemLnaEnabled()
Same class of breakage as the RadioLibWrapper::_cad_enabled and
MyMesh::getCADEnabled() duplicates already fixed in the merge commit. These
survived because the merge was validated with the two prescribed MQTT smoke
builds, and neither of them compiles simple_room_server or the heltec_v4
variant - so CI was the first thing to touch the broken files.
Now verified across ALL 32 observer envs locally, not a sample: 32/32 build.
First upstream merge since the 2026-06-06 base (191 upstream commits). 14 files
conflicted; resolutions below.
Fleet-critical check (Constraint 1): upstream reordered NodePrefs members
(rx_boosted_gain / path_hash_mode moved to the struct tail) but did NOT change
/com_prefs. Persistence is written field-by-field at explicit offsets, so member
order is in-memory only. Verified the fork's writeCommonPrefsImage() is
byte-identical to upstream's inline writer at every offset (79 pad, 121, 122,
290-294). No migration needed.
Resolutions:
- CommonCLI.h: kept the fork's NodePrefs (superset) and adopted upstream's
setRxBoostedGain(bool)->bool signature change, which CommonCLI.cpp now uses to
report unsupported. Corrected a stale comment claiming rx_boosted_gain lives at
offset 79 (it is a pad; the field is at 290).
- CommonCLI.cpp: kept the fork's legacy /com_prefs migration and the extracted
writeCommonPrefsImage() call.
- UITask.cpp: three-way merge - upstream's drawTextCentered + powering-off
screen, plus the fork's WITH_WEBCONFIG portal/reboot screens.
- ESP32Board.cpp, MeshCore.h, platformio.ini: kept both sides (fork OTA additions
alongside upstream powerOff/enterDeepSleep and Packet.cpp).
- MicroNMEALocationProvider.h: took upstream's claim/release and added the
_claims member they depend on.
- MyMesh.cpp/.h (repeater + room server): kept the fork's superset defaults.
- Removed duplicate declarations auto-merge produced: RadioLibWrapper::_cad_enabled
and MyMesh::getCADEnabled().
Verification: native suite 15/15 (incl. upstream's new test_mesh_tables), both
MQTT smoke builds green, ArduinoJson pin check passes. Hardware validation next.
Introduce a web configuration portal for easier node management and
provisioning without serial CLI. Enhance MQTT functionality with
improved IATA code validation, dynamic slot management, and
background NTP synchronization. Update web UI elements for better
user experience and security notes regarding open AP usage.
