Server roles (slice 7)
- CommonCLI split into upstream's shape; region CLI moved into CommonCLI;
ClientACL, RegionMap, TransportKeyStore and both server meshes in
upstream shape over an Arduino compat shim (helpers/compat: Arduino.h,
Stream/Print, Serial, SHA256, FILESYSTEM/File over Zephyr fs)
- room server processAck port; `get acl` prints as upstream
- room: default name Room-XXXX, display/input rotation, live radio UI refresh
Event loops (slice 7b)
- repeater and room server share server_main_common with a ServerRole
descriptor; shared event bits in src/mesh_events.h
- room server deadline-driven (idle wakes 2.2/s -> 0.08/s); companion
loop() runs on housekeeping (closes the lazy contact-flush gap)
- `get loop.wakes` in debug builds (CONFIG_ZEPHCORE_LOOP_WAKE_STATS)
Companion transports and WiFi (slice 8)
- upstream MultiSerialInterface: BLE, USB/UART and TCP are each a
BaseSerialInterface, every connected transport gets every frame;
CompanionSerial holds a lossless reply; shared frame_txq for BLE/TCP
- SerialCompanionTransport and LinuxTCPTransport replaced by
TcpCompanionTransport; ZephyrBLE split (gatt layout, DFU)
- WiFi companion (upstream wifi.ssid/pwd/enabled CLI, TCP port 5000) on
boards declaring `capabilities: wifi` in zephcore.yml: the PSRAM
ESP32-S3 boards, plus Heltec V3 (140 contacts), Wireless Tracker (130)
and both C6 boards (280); ESP32-S3 without PSRAM gets bounded WiFi
buffers and a measured 72 KB heap; PSRAM boards' internal heap 72 KB
- TCP queues: own depth (ZEPHCORE_TCP_QUEUE_SIZE=8), RX waits instead
of dropping
- RAM: companion ClientACL dropped; main/BT-TX/TCP stacks sized from
measured peaks (-7 KB nRF companions, -9 KB ESP32 companions)
- ESP32 WiFi stopped working under ~200 frames/s unicast. Fixed by:
patches/zephyr/0017 never block the WiFi task in the RX callback;
patches/zephyr/0018 lock shared_multi_heap (heap corruption with the
WiFi heap in PSRAM); patches/modules/hal_espressif/0001 backport of
hal_espressif af97fb02df (PSRAM realloc)
Storage and prefs (slice 9)
- prefs are now prefs.json through upstream's ConfigSerializer (ported
verbatim), with upstream's key names for shared fields and ZephCore's
own under "zc"; on first boot the binary new_prefs / repeater prefs is
migrated and kept, so a downgrade still boots with the old settings
- helpers/PrefsCodec: both legacy binary layouts (companion 272 B,
server 311 B) as Zephyr-free codecs; sanitizeNodePrefs is the only
validator
- fix: server prefs could be replaced by a truncated file when a write
failed; identity, prefs and channel writes go through one checked
atomic replace (ZephyrFsUtil)
- fix: a corrupt cad_auto byte turned adaptive CAD off instead of the
default on
- fix: a deliberate 300 s GPS duty on a repeater was rewritten to 48 h
on every boot (that migration now runs on legacy files only)
- one identity loader for all roles (IdentityFile); an unusable key
file is always parked as .bad before regenerating
- server store no longer stamps repeater defaults on room server and
observer; companion first-boot volume policy moved into the store
(adoptVolume)
- ZephyrDataStore 1435 -> ~850 lines
- BaseChatMesh/ContactInfo/ChannelDetails restored to upstream text, ZephCore
changes fenced; added to the Shared-file list
- upstream names: handleCmdFrame, writeOKFrame/writeErrFrame,
addToOfflineQueue, queueMessage; dead dequeue removed
- handleCmdFrame split into handleCmd<Name>() in upstream order;
CMD_SEND_PATH_DISCOVERY -> _REQ
- CompanionMesh::handleCommand as the single CLI entry point; over-the-air
TXT_TYPE_CLI_COMMAND from flag-0x10 contacts (upstream command set only)
- V-contact moved to app/VContact.cpp, protocol constants to
app/CompanionProtocol.h; comment diet (image-identical)
- LoRaRadioBase -> LoRaRadio (final); SX126x/SX127x/LR1110/LR2021Radio
replaced by const LoRaRadioOps tables (radio_ops_<family>.cpp), one
linked per build; mains construct the radio in one line
- lr20xx: vendored Semtech SDK + HAL moved beside the driver (no app-tree
sources), DIO1 handler split (CCN 52 -> 10), zc_lora_timing.h adopted,
dead exports removed, header rewritten, comment diet (image-identical)
- semtech,lr2021 uses the lr1110 property names (irq-gpios, tcxo-voltage,
rfsw-*), compiled config byte-identical
- correct the stale "LR2021 is not CAD-probed" claim
- compile Semtech lr11xx_driver v2.7.0 from modules/lib/lora-basics-modem
(driver layer only) instead of the vendored fork; HAL moves next to the
driver (+abort_blocking_cmd); driver no longer builds app-tree sources
- split lr11xx_dio1_work_handler into per-IRQ helpers (CCN 46 -> 12)
- zc_lora_timing.h: preamble grace, payload deadline, 24-bit saturation,
shared with sx126x (patch 0003) and host-tested; sx126x CAD_RX Rx bound
now saturates instead of wrapping (SF12/BW7.81)
- semtech,lr1110 binding includes upstream lr11xx-base; boards use
upstream property names (irq-gpios, tcxo-voltage, rfsw-*)
- drop dead lr11xx_get_random/get_chip_temp_c; correct the IRQ-clear
invariant wording; comment diet (image-identical)
- CadController (stats, window, re-anchor, visits, staircase, safety,
starvation relax) and NoiseFloorEstimator split out of LoRaRadioBase
behind a 4-call CadHw interface; Zephyr-free, host unit tests added
- prefs mandatory: setPrefs() before begin(), LoRaConfig fallbacks and the
companion/observer placeholder prefs removed; LoRaConfig is the one
defaults source (invalid-prefs fallback now uses the board TX default)
- TX-wait thread stack owned by the base; reconfigureWithParams removed
- driver extension headers on the public include path
(zephyr/drivers/lora/*.h); patch 0003 include updated
- comment diet (image-identical); rationale moved to devdocs LLD 03
- Mesh, Dispatcher, Packet, packet pool and the core headers rebuilt from
Arduino MeshCore's text; ZephCore changes re-applied, each fenced
`// ZEPHCORE:` (diff vs upstream: 4540 -> 1147 lines)
- upstream header layout; MainBoard gains handleCommand/loop and the other
upstream members; RNG::nextInt back in Utils.cpp
- packet logging moved to the roles' log hooks (helpers/PacketLog.h)
- zero-hop direct ACKs deduplicated and length-checked as upstream
- RadioIncludes.h -> src/, LoRaConfig.h -> helpers/
- .editorconfig: shared files keep upstream formatting
Verified: 10 role builds, per-function disassembly review, bench DM/ACK
regression (T1000-E, Wio L1, XIAO S3 on 1.17.4) incl. via live repeater.
hwinfo_get_reset_cause() reads a latched register. It was read inline in
main_companion.cpp and cleared there, so the repeater, room server and
observer never read it and never cleared it: their flags carried into the next
boot, and whichever role read first defined what any later reader would see.
helpers/boot_info.c reads it once in a SYS_INIT at POST_KERNEL, logs it,
stores it and clears the register. That runs before main() on every role.
zephcore_boot_reset_cause() hands out the stored copy and reports false where
the platform has no support, which a caller can distinguish from a cause of 0.
The clear's return is discarded deliberately: ESP32 has no
hwinfo_clear_reset_cause() implementation, so the weak stub returns -ENOSYS.
The capture is still correct there; only the next boot's reading is not.
Logging in boot_info_init() rather than only in the consuming role matters
because the clear now happens everywhere. Without it a repeater that rebooted
on WATCHDOG or LOCKUP would have the evidence cleared and recorded nowhere,
where before it survived in the register for whoever read it over SWD.
main_companion.cpp reads the stored copy and renders through a table with one
row per RESET_* bit, so a cause with no label is no longer logged as bare hex.
