Enhance the documentation for the `start ota` command to clarify its
behavior when connected to a Wi-Fi network versus when using the
`start ota ap` option. This provides users with better guidance on
how to initiate OTA updates under different network conditions.
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.
Implemented new commands for configuring and diagnosing NTP server
settings in the MQTT bridge. Users can now set a custom NTP server
and probe connectivity to configured servers. This enhancement
improves time synchronization reliability for JWT authentication
and provides better diagnostics for NTP connectivity issues.
Extract the inline cursor-walk in handleRegionCmd into file-local
helpers (skipSpaces, rtrimSpaces, takeToken, splitNameJump,
processRegionDefSegment), grouped immediately above the consumer.
Behavior is identical; addresses PR #2540 review feedback on
readability.
Tighten the region def docs: collapse five Note callouts into three
grouped paragraphs (Behavior / Existing regions / Limits), add a
case-sensitivity caveat plus an error example, note the cursor reset
between split commands, and use generic placeholder names.
Add a new command `region bulk` for defining region hierarchies in a single line. This command allows users to create multiple regions in a single message. Updated the documentation to include usage examples and detailed parameter descriptions.
Updated the MQTT message structure to add a new field for repeat status, allowing the indication of forwarding status as "on" or "off". This change includes modifications to the MQTTMessageBuilder and related documentation to reflect the new parameter. Additionally, updated CLI command documentation to clarify flooding behavior in different firmware versions.
Changed the default setting for TX packets from disabled to 'advert' across multiple files, including documentation and example implementations. This aligns the behavior of the MQTT bridge with the new default preferences, ensuring that only the node's own advert packets are uplinked by default. Updated relevant comments and documentation to reflect these changes.
Introduced a new CLI command to view and set the radio watchdog interval, allowing users to configure the watchdog timeout in minutes (0 to disable, 1-120 for active). Updated the documentation to reflect this addition and clarified the parameters for the `neighbor.remove` command. Default watchdog interval is set to 5 minutes in the codebase.
