This commit contains the following improvements in
`spi-hdlc-adapter`:
- It changes the default syslog log level to `LOG_WARNING`.
- It enhances the `--verbose[=num]` option to allow negative values
to reduce the log level. Note that this change keeps the behavior
backward compatible (it is an add-on).
- It updates the `print_help()` and the `README.md` files to document
new behavior of `--verbose` option.
- differentiate serial login scenarios and improve serial login experience
- shorten command sending and validating process
- fix ping issue (no impact on NCP DUT certification)
This commit adds a new script `git-squash-merg` which can help with
performing squash merge of a branch into another. The commit message
includes the list of squashed commits. This script is helpful for
synchronization of git repositories that work with gerrit.
This commit changes the `spi-hdlc-adapter` retry logic when the slave
is busy (it refuses a transmission). There are three levels, initially
the retries happen almost immediately, then up to certain number of
attempts at a fast rate and finally it drops to a slow rate.
This change helps with the average delay of spinel message exchange
between NCP and host (connected using an SPI interface).
* Increase max spi-align-allowance from 6 to 16
Testing has determined that some SPI slave interfaces sometimes emit
even more than 6 0xFF bytes before sending the first header byte. Upping
this value to 16 in order to provide some future proofing.
* Up version from 0.06 to 0.07
* [mac filter] add rssfilter support and integrate whitelist/blacklist
- provide RssIn filter function to fix the received signal strength for test purpose.
- provide Address filter function which integrates whitelist and blacklist, save (~300B) RAM.
- update cli and spinel-cli to reflect new otLinkFilterX() APIs.
- keep whitelist/blacklist spinel properties the same as before while implemented with new otLinkFilterX() APIs.
- THCI: add setOutBoundLinkQuality() API for DEV-1530
- THCI: update Allow/Block relative APIs
- update some test scripts due to new OT_ERROR_ALEADY when adding duplicate address to whitelist
* update for comments
* add MAC_FIXED_RSS spinel property
* rebase and apply new OutboundFrameBegin(aHeader)
* update OpenThread.py
