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).
The `recv_pkt_region` is set when processing a flood packet in `filterRecvFloodPacket`
but direct/non-flood packets would never pass through that function, so the pointer was
not cleared for them.
`sendFloodReply` would then later use it blindly, which meant that the response would
either inherit the region from the last flood packet, or refer to a non-initialised pointer
if no region floods had been received yet.
Before this commit, there was no way to set a different max hop count
for unscoped messages.
Now with this change, by defaul it tracks the flood.max setting, until
a user provides a flood.max.unscoped value, which tax precidence for
packets if ROUTE_TYPE_FLOOD is true.
Framework for upcoming variant-specific PRs that add LED feedback during boot. The hook gives users visual cues that the device is busy and
shouldn't be interacted with until startup completes.
* room server: added RegionMap, and new CommonCLI wiring, default_scope handling
* sensor: only minimal RegionMap wiring. Still needs work to handle default-scope
The Ethernet retry loop in repeater and room server checked
hardwareStatus() and linkStatus() before calling Ethernet.begin(),
which always returned EthernetNoHardware since hardware detection
only happens during begin(). Extract shared Ethernet CLI code into
EthernetCLI.h to prevent future divergence. Also fix time_t type
mismatch in companion radio Ethernet init.
