It is quite possible that the user request for scheduling an uplink is deferred because of backoff or if it was a CONFIRMED message, a retry may take place on a different datarate and different channel.
We didn't have a hook for such deferred scheduling, telling the user whether the async rescheduling worked or not. This commit adds that capability and now we can tell the application if a scheduling failure took place after the original schedule request was accepted.
failed of its own accord) would prevent futher connect()'s due to the
CONN_IN_PROGRESS_FLAG remaining set. This change clears that flag in
the two cases described.
Ignore TEST_GROUP by AStyle. As this uses macro, is not visible to formatter.
By default, it assumes it is a function and treats methods as blocks inside a
function (inlined {}). We ignore it.
We might just not format UNITTESTS in the future if we face similar issues
in the future.
We had a bug especially in the reception path. Our recv window opening
delays were being calculated on the premise that the radio has to capture
5 preamble symbols out of 8 transmitted by the base station. However, in PHY
layer while setting radio rc settings, we were setting preamble length to be 8.
Preamble length register needs to be configured differently for Uplink and Downlink.
For uplink, we wish to transmit 8 preamble symbols whereas in the reception path we need
to receive 5 preamble symbols at least out of 8.
Alongwith that the maximum range of timing error may vary from platform to platform as it
is based upon the crystal in the chip. We have now made these parameters configurable and
have loaded them with the most optimal defaults.
The issue rose up when using ARMC6. A test case didn't initialize NetID
parameter for ABP while using connect(params) API. NetID is the first 7 bits
of the Device Address. It makes sense to actually remove the net-id parameter
from ABP settings as the stack can deduce it from device address. However, the ABP
structure is exposed in public APIs, so we can't really do that at the moment.
Simpler fix is to move the mask that helps us to extract first 7 bits of the device address
is exposed in lorawan_types.h and the user can use it to deduce correct net-id.
