This commit implements Enhanced-ACK Probing (on simulation platform).
- Add a new public API otLinkMetricsConfigEnhAckProbing which sends
Link Metrics Management Request to configure the probing. This is
called on Probing Initiator side.
- Add a new radio platform API otPlatRadioConfigureEnhAckProbing. This
API should be called on Probing Subject side when handling the
requests from Initiators. This API notifies the radio to start/stop
aggregating link metrics info and include the data into Vendor IE in
enhanced-ACK for the specific neighbor. As discussed in #5746, the
code for doing such thing should be put in radio driver.
- Add a util module util/link_metrics, which provides a group of APIs
to implement Probing Subject side logic for Enh-ACK Probing. Any
platform could use this module to implement the feature easily in
radio driver.
- Add new util APIs in util/mac_frame to generate Enh-ACK Probing IE
(Vendor IE with Thread OUI and SubType = 0) and set value for this
IE.
- Update the implementation in simulation/radio.c to support Probing
Subject side logic for Enh-ACK Probing, using APIs in
util/link_metrics and util/mac_frame.
- Add a test
v1_2_LowPower_7_1_01_SingleProbeLinkMetricsWithEnhancedAcks.py for
testing.
Misc:
- Add check for all the public Link Metrics APIs (Initiator side) to
ensure that the Subject is a neighbor of the Initiator. If the
address is not link-local or the neighbor is not found, an error
UNKNOWN_NEIGHBOR would be returned.
- Update PrepareEmptyFrame so that when it's called for reference
device, its frame version would be set to 2015.
- This commit fixes some issue in multicast forwarding from Thread to
Backbone.
- It also adds a test to verify that multicast forwarding works across
Thread and Backbone.
- Test script tests/scripts/thread-cert/mcast6.py is added for Host
to subscribe to a multicast address
The ping reply can not reach ROUTER1 since DUA feature is not
complete.
This commit ensures each node create its own profile data, so that they
can be merged after tests to produce more accurate profile data.
This commit also prints the coverage data of message.cpp after all
profile data are merged.
5.3.3 pktverify fail by small chance when the ping reply is forwarded
from Router3 -> Leader -> Router2 instead of Router3 -> Router2. In
such case, the direct wpan.dst16 is not Router2's RLOC16, but Leader's
RLOC16.
This commit change 5.3.3 to check for both 6lowpan mesh dst16 and
wpan.dst16 against Router2's RLOC16.
If user doesn't set the Partition Id using the command
'leaderpartitionid xxx', the current cli command 'leaderpartitionid'
always return 0. This commit renames the command 'leaderpartitionid'
to partitionid and let the command partitionid returns the current
leader Partition Id and add command partitionid preferred to set or
get preferred Partition Id.
