A bare 2-tuple is one name=value pair (not -DFOO -D1), a dict maps
names to values, and a None value is a bare define, per processDefines.
The unused caplog_at_info helper and the progress kwarg the download
stubs declared ahead of their PR are gone.
A logging filter installed for the batch's duration ends a partial bar
row (under the bar's lock) before any record is emitted, so a mirror
retry warning from a worker is no longer overwritten by the next CR
frame. The Ctrl-C sentinel derives from BaseException so a broad
except Exception in the download layers cannot convert an abort into a
retry, an abandoned job is reported like a failure instead of reading
as a completed download, and the mirror-sweep backoff sleeps through
the cancellation tick so a Ctrl-C during a retry window aborts at the
boundary instead of after it. The docstring states the parked-socket
worst case.
A dependency chain (api -> noise-c -> libsodium) discovers one archive
per wave, so the <2 gate sent every chained download through the legacy
per-file path. Sized registry archives now always use the batch runner:
one download method, one bar; the per-file path remains only for
unknown-size, git, and local sources.
registry_download memoizes per process (failures uncached), so the
prefetch and the install share one metadata round-trip per package.
The idf ccache env always hands idf.py exactly one canonical spelling:
the no-ccache path exports 0 so an unparsable inherited value or a
probe-rejected shim cannot enable it, the enabled path exports 1
whatever accepted spelling arrived, and forced-on still runs the
resolver for its no-binary warning. An empty env value keeps its
historical disable meaning instead of falling to the default policy.
The throw_stubs force-include now comes from the build_src_flags option
esp8266/__init__ pins, collapsing the two spellings to one source of
truth; -include paths resolve against the source root. The ldscript
fallback consumes boards.board_ld_script instead of duplicating the
per-board rule, flash_mode is checked against its closed set before
landing unquoted in the elf2bin command, and the board-gate comment no
longer names a nonexistent validator.
LOW_MEMORY is upstream's else branch, so the default variant stands in
for it and every listed knob wins -- pinned for the ordinary SNTP
multi-server config where esp8266's HIGHER_BANDWIDTH_LOW_FLASH must
prevail. A stale warn note that cannot be removed now vetoes the stamp
(mirror of the lost-note case), and the unreadable-cached-note warning
names its cause.
