Libraries / Subsystems¶
Management
Fixed an issue in MCUmgr image management whereby erasing an already erased slot would return an unknown error, it now returns success.
Fixed MCUmgr UDP transport structs being statically initialised, this results in about a ~5KiB flash saving.
Fixed an issue in MCUmgr which would cause a user data buffer overflow if the UDP transport was enabled on IPv4 only but IPv6 support was enabled in the kernel.
Implemented datetime functionality in MCUmgr OS management group, this makes use of the RTC driver API.
Fixes an issue in MCUmgr console UART input whereby the FIFO would be read outside of an ISR, which is not supported in the next USB stack.
