Hello fellow developers :-) So, Miguel and I have been working on unifying Newtmgr into the MCUmgr repo (https://github.com/apache/mynewt-mcumgr). There are no protocol level changes, since MCUmgr(SMP) and Newtmgr(NMP) were the same and so, everything should work off the bat for everybody.
The PRs related to this change are: 1. https://github.com/apache/mynewt-core/pull/1917 2. https://github.com/apache/mynewt-mcumgr/pull/27 3. https://github.com/apache/mynewt-nimble/pull/577 We have also added a transient package for backwards compatibility. So, this should be a fairly smooth transition for everybody. Details about the change: - Replace newtmgr with SMP and MCUmgr - The change addresses issue #1871 <https://github.com/apache/mynewt-core/issues/1871> - Make stats, logs and img_mgmt work with MCUmgr - Make default group commands work with MCUmgr - Add transient packages for backwards compatibility - Update apps to have the updated dependencies - Add syscfgs for MGMT commands Eg: CONFIG_MGMT, STATS_MGMT, LOG_MGMT, etc - Make OICMGR use OMP from MCUmgr - Transition from Newtmgr -> SMP - Remove cborattr and update cborattr in MCUmgr - Fix builds for log version 2 - We are also removing support for log_fcb_slot1 since it is not really used by the community or any modules in the core repo. - Updating mynewt port of MCUmgr - Adding Stats, Logs, datetime and other default commands support to MCUmgr - Changing mgmt_group_register() in MCUmgr so that it allows re-registration of command groups - Fix dependency and build issues in MCUmgr for mynewt port and apps - Adding support for log version 3 and image hash changes - Adding support for image management lazy erase - Adding support for config mgmt - Updating cborattr in MCUmgr to have similar support as mynewt-core - Fix unit tests and add some more for cborattr just like in mynewt-core - Change log_mgmt to use fragmenting so that an entry can be divided into smaller chunks while reading. - Fix mynewt port of os_mgmt - Add changes for backwards compatibility - Add sample app: omp_svr for trying out OICMGR over BLE/Serial - Fix reboot_log for soft resets Some more stuff that would follow after this change would be: 1. Release version for MCUmgr 2. Unifying MCUmgr tool Also, there were a lot of fixes that got in as part of this effort in the MCUmgr repo. I do encourage everybody to try it out. -- Regards, Vipul Rahane
