Conversation
Reproduces UART file uplink/downlink failures for multi-chunk transfers: uplink corrupts silently above ~3-4 chunks (separate, unresolved bug), and downlink hangs indefinitely on any transfer (root-caused to downlinkRepeater's BufferRepeater fanning out to a disabled-by-default LoRa channel that never returns its buffer). Oracle is fileManager's on-board CalculateCrc vs local zlib.crc32^0xFFFFFFFF for uplink, and byte-for-byte comparison against the GDS's own downlinked bytes for downlink. Includes a 1/3/5-chunk parametrized suite plus slow-marked 1000-chunk uplink and downlink stress cases (downlink builds its large source file via on-board AppendFile rather than the still-broken large uplink path).

#457 Root cause (confirmed via HIL A/B testing): Utilities::BufferRepeater only returns a downlink buffer to fileDownlink once every enabled+connected multiOut channel has independently returned it. BufferRepeater's own CHANNEL_ENABLED default is all-channels-ENABLED, but lora.TRANSMIT defaults to DISABLED on every flight reset, so the LoRa channel's comQueue never drains its FILE buffer -> fileDownlink wedges permanently on the very first downlink attempt (matches #457 and #344). Fix: force downlinkRepeater.CHANNEL_ENABLED to [ENABLED, DISABLED, DISABLED] (UART-only) on every boot, right after loadParameters() in ReferenceDeploymentTopology.cpp, mirroring the existing lora.start(..., TransmitState::DISABLED) override pattern already used in this file for project-specific boot-time defaults. paramSet_CHANNEL_ENABLED() is private on the generated component base (command-dispatch only), so the override drives the real command path: build a Fw::CmdArgBuffer and invoke downlinkRepeater's cmdIn port directly with opcode getIdBase() + OPCODE_CHANNEL_ENABLED_SET (0x0). This is a safe-default fix only -- it does not change BufferRepeater's fan-out logic. Re-enabling LoRa downlink requires explicitly setting CHANNEL_ENABLED[1]=ENABLED in lockstep with lora.TRANSMIT ENABLED; HIL testing showed enabling TRANSMIT alone does not recover an already-wedged transfer and even fresh transfers only drain slowly against downlinkDelay's configured cadence. Verified on hardware (PROVES V5e flight controller): downlink 1 and 3 chunk cases pass cleanly from a cold boot with no manual PRM_SET (302B and 612B transfers land correctly and instantly). Uplink 1/3 chunks and downlink-of-a-5-chunk-file remain red -- separate, pre-existing uplink corruption bug above ~3-4 chunks, out of scope for this fix.

…tion (issue #457) Bumps the fprime-zephyr submodule pin to Open-Source-Space-Foundation/fprime-zephyr branch fix/457-uart-rx-drain (commit 09fdccb), which fixes the UART RX driver's silent byte-drop-on-full-ring-buffer behavior: - schedIn_handler now drains the RX ring buffer in a bounded loop each tick (capped at ring-capacity/read-size iterations) instead of taking a single 64-byte bite, so a backlog can be fully drained in one tick instead of trickling out while more bytes queue up and overrun. - serial_cb (the RX ISR) now checks ring_buf_space_get() before reading a byte out of the hardware FIFO. Once the ring is full, it disables its own RX interrupt (uart_irq_rx_disable) instead of reading-and-dropping. For this board's USB-CDC-backed UART, that makes the underlying stack NAK the host's bulk-OUT endpoint, so unread bytes queue up in the *host's* USB stack (true end-to-end flow control) instead of being silently lost. schedIn_handler re-enables RX once draining frees ring space. - RxRingBufferOverrun (throttled warning event) + RxOverrunCount (telemetry) surface any residual drops, which should no longer occur in normal operation. RAM-neutral: RING_BUF_SIZE stays 1024 bytes; SERIAL_BUFFER_SIZE (64->248) draws from commsBufferManager's existing 1024B-per-buffer pool, adding no new allocation. Verified on hardware (PROVES V5e, RP2350/Zephyr): uplink 1/3/4/5/6/8/10 chunks and 5x5-chunk repeats pass reliably; previously uplinks above 3-4 chunks corrupted ~100% of the time. Zero RX ring-buffer overrun or CCSDS frame-desync events observed across all post-fix test sessions.

…461) TcSecurityDeframer::dataIn_handler previously persisted the accepted sequence number to a file on every single accepted command frame. This synchronous, per-command filesystem write raced FileUplink/FileManager/FileDownlink/PrmDb's own filesystem operations on the shared SD-card-backed FatFs mount, causing intermittent ENOENT on immediate follow-up file access (root cause of #461, confirmed via extensive HIL A/B testing: 1/10 pass rate with the writer active vs 10/10 disabled, plus a captured SWD ring-buffer trace showing the writer's full open/write/sync/close cycle executing inside FileUplink's own open-file window on a different thread). Fix: write-ahead batched persistence. The in-RAM sequence number remains authoritative for runtime acceptance decisions (unchanged). Persistence is now bounded to at most once every SEQ_NUM_PERSIST_STRIDE (100) accepted frames, writing accepted + STRIDE as the new high-water mark -- so the persisted value is always >= any legitimately-accepted sequence number, preserving the anti-replay guarantee (#426) across an unexpected power loss while eliminating per-command filesystem contention. Also adds torn-write safety to the persisted record (value + complement checksum) and a new SequenceNumberRecordInvalid event: if the record fails validation on boot (or any non-DOESNT_EXIST read error), the component starts UNARMED -- rejecting all frames -- rather than defaulting to a low sequence number that could reopen the anti-replay window. Ground re-arms via the existing SET_SEQ_NUM command/seq-sync procedure. No unit tests exist for this component; verified via HIL (SWD reflash + GDS): 20/20-run 5-chunk uplink campaign, 10/10 1000-byte A/B uplinks (writer enabled, batching active), reboot-replay protection intact, and 1000-chunk (204KB) uplink + downlink stress both passing.
…rsist fix Caught during HIL re-verification: the previous commit's "unarmed" state rejected ALL frames -- including SET_SEQ_NUM itself -- whenever the persisted sequence-number record failed validation. Since SET_SEQ_NUM is itself an authenticated command frame processed through the same dataIn_handler path, this was a self-inflicted deadlock with no ground recovery possible. Corrected: an invalid/unreadable persisted record now falls back to sequence number 0 (identical to the genuine-first-boot path) and command capability is never blocked. SequenceNumberRecordInvalid still fires so the anomaly is visible, and ground can still use SET_SEQ_NUM to fast-forward past any previously-used sequence numbers if the real last-used value is known, but this is no longer required to restore basic command capability.
…rite failure Caught during HIL re-verification: writeAheadPersistIfNeeded() previously left m_persistedHighWater unchanged when writeSequenceNumber() failed, reasoning that "the next frame retries, no more often than every STRIDE frames" -- that was wrong. Once the high-water mark is stuck below the ever-advancing accepted sequence number, EVERY subsequent accepted frame re-satisfies the persist condition and retries the write, degrading the fix back into a persist-on-every-frame race (the original #461 bug) for the rest of the boot, permanently, after a single transient filesystem hiccup. This is the likely explanation for the "one success then a permanent wall" pattern observed across multiple HIL campaigns today. Fix: advance m_persistedHighWater unconditionally, whether or not the write succeeded. Bounds the retry to the next stride boundary instead of every frame. Tradeoff: a failed write means the on-disk value can be stale by up to ~2x SEQ_NUM_PERSIST_STRIDE instead of 1x after a power loss -- still bounded, and the anti-replay invariant still holds since the mark only ever advances forward.
…-water mark Security regression in 362209f: advancing m_persistedHighWater unconditionally -- including on a write FAILURE -- broke the write-ahead invariant this fix depends on. If persist writes were failing, the on-disk value would stay stale/low while accepted sequence numbers kept advancing past it with no bound, so a reboot during a failure streak could reopen a replay window for the ENTIRE gap since the last successful write, not bounded by SEQ_NUM_PERSIST_STRIDE at all. Corrected: m_persistedHighWater now only advances on a CONFIRMED successful write (Os::File::OP_OK). On failure, a bounded retry-backoff counter (SEQ_NUM_PERSIST_RETRY_BACKOFF = 10 accepted frames) is set instead of either (a) advancing anyway (the regression just fixed) or (b) retrying on every subsequent frame (degrades back to the original #461 persist-per-frame race). A new throttled SequenceNumberPersistFailed event fires on every retry attempt, carrying the raw fs status, so a sustained failure streak stays visible rather than silent. Invariant restated precisely: whenever a persist has ever succeeded, the value on disk is always >= the highest sequence number legitimately accepted at that time. Between successful persists, the gap is bounded by SEQ_NUM_PERSIST_STRIDE (steady state) or unresolved-and-loudly-flagged (failure streak) -- never silently unbounded.
…round-trip test Add a board_only pytest marker so CI can split integration tests across assets by hardware requirement, and mark uart_file_transfer_test.py with it (needs only a bare flight controller). Replace the AppendFile-based test_downlink_large with a direct 204KB uplink+downlink round trip: the AppendFile workaround predates the large- uplink fixes and its send_and_assert_command false-fails on out-of-order board EVR timestamps. The round trip is xfail pending issue #471 (comms buffer pool leak FATALs the board on the second large uplink of a boot); removing the xfail is the #471 acceptance gate.

…(issue #471) An SD write stall during a large UART file uplink backed buffers up until the pool exhausted, then a FATAL assert cascade (BufferCollector map overflow, FileUplink queue-full, CmdSequencer schedIn queue-full) left the board byte-silent with the watchdog stopped. Project-side fixes: - commsFileBuffCount 5->20: headroom over the fileUplink queue so routine transfers never saturate (measured HiBuffs 10/10 with old pool, 12/25 now) - FileHandling fileUplink queue 10->30: must hold the entire pool or queue-full FW_ASSERTs (FATAL) during a stall - ComCcsds tlm queue depth 1->8: depth 1 silently dropped any second telemetry packet, which is why buffer-pool health never reached ground - wire ComCcsdsUart.commsBufferManager.schedIn to rateGroup1Hz and move its TotalBuffs/CurrBuffs/HiBuffs out of the packet omit list into Health - acceptance test: 3 consecutive 204KB uplinks asserting pool returns to baseline with headroom; remove xfail from test_large_round_trip; retry CRC oracle (transient FatFs OTHER_ERROR) and re-uplink once on silent frame loss (no ARQ on the link) Requires companion lib/fprime + lib/fprime-extras changes (submodule pin bumps pending): SpacePacketFramer drop-instead-of-assert on alloc failure, BUFFER_FANOUT_MAX_BUFFERS_IN_FLIGHT 10->40, CmdSequencer schedIn/pingIn and ActiveRateGroup PingIn queue-full 'drop' semantics. Verified: full UART file-transfer suite (9 tests incl. two 204KB round trips) green from one boot; overload now surfaces as FrameDropped/ NoBuffsAvailable/HLTH_PING_LATE warnings with the board fully responsive.

… tests off the radio job Two fixes for the PR-473 integration failures: 1. integration-uart cascade: the #461 write-ahead persistence means the board resumes AFTER a reboot expecting a sequence number up to a stride ahead of the ground counter (observed: Received=199, LastAccepted=202 right after the safe-mode reboot in mode_manager tests), so every command is rejected until ground burns through the gap -- fixtures time out first and every later test file errors in setup. Fix: fan prepareForReboot out to both TcSecurityDeframer instances, which now persist the EXACT current sequence number on planned reboots (reset commands, safe-mode watchdog stop). Ground stays aligned across orderly reboots; unplanned resets still resume from the write-ahead mark, which remains the security-conservative direction. Watchdog::stop_handler is now the single notification point so ModeManager's stopWatchdog port path is covered, not just the STOP_WATCHDOG command. 2. integration-radio: uart_file_transfer_test.py was only marked board_only, so all its large-file UART tests (204KB transfers) ran over the LoRa link in the radio job and accounted for 9 of its 10 failures. Mark it uart_only, which the radio job's FILTER already excludes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01WpBURCutAx8281i59nj6fo

git submodule sync --recursive updates .git/config cached URL documentation
💡 Result:
The git submodule sync command is used to synchronize the remote URL configuration of your submodules with the values defined in your.gitmodules file [1][2]. When you run git submodule sync --recursive, this synchronization process is applied to all registered submodules and recursively to any nested submodules within them [1][3]. The command works by updating the submodule URL settings stored in your local.git/config file, ensuring they match the URLs currently specified in the.gitmodules file [1][4]. It only affects submodules that have already been initialized (i.e., those that already have a URL entry in.git/config) [1][5][3]. This command is necessary when the upstream URL of a submodule has changed (for example, if a project moves to a different hosting platform) [1][2]. If you pull updates that include a new URL in.gitmodules but do not sync, your local repository may attempt to fetch from the old, potentially obsolete URL, which can cause git submodule update to fail [2]. After running git submodule sync --recursive, you typically need to follow up with git submodule update --init --recursive to actually fetch and check out the commits from the new, synchronized URL [2][6].

Fprime sync input port invocation model timeout receive queue asynchronous port timeout-less
💡 Result:
In the F´ (F Prime) framework, port invocation behavior is determined by the port's kind, which dictates whether it operates synchronously or asynchronously [1][2][3]. Synchronous (sync) Input Ports: These ports operate like a standard function call [1][4]. When a component invokes a synchronous output port connected to a sync input port, the code runs immediately in the execution context of the invoking component (i.e., on the invoker's thread) [1][2][5]. Because these are direct function calls, they are inherently "timeout-less" at the framework level; there is no queue or underlying mechanism that manages timeouts for these invocations [1][6][5]. If the invoked handler hangs or takes a long time, the caller is blocked for that duration [4]. Asynchronous (async) Input Ports: These ports are backed by a message queue in the receiver component [4]. When an output port invokes an async input port, the invocation (message) is placed into the receiver's queue, and the caller returns immediately [4][7]. The actual function handler is later dispatched by the receiver's own thread when it processes its queue [1][2][6]. Because the invocation is decoupled from the caller, the framework does not implement a "timeout" for individual asynchronous port calls [1][4]. Timeouts in F´: The F´ framework does not provide a built-in timeout mechanism for general port invocations. Timeouts are typically managed at the application level through design patterns [7][8]. For example, the Svc::Health component monitors component responsiveness by periodically sending "ping" messages via asynchronous ports and tracking the time taken for a response to return via a separate port [9][8]. If a response does not arrive within a configured number of cycles (rate group ticks), the health service flags a timeout and can trigger events (e.g., WARNING or FATAL) [9][8]. Summary of invocation models: - Sync Input: Direct function call, runs on the caller's thread, no queue, no framework-level timeout [1][6][5]. - Async Input: Queued, runs on the receiver's thread, requires an active/queued component, no framework-level timeout [1][4][5]. - Timeouts: Explicitly managed by application-level logic (e.g., Svc::Health), not by the port invocation itself [9][8].

FprimeExtras Utilities FileHelper writeToFile FPrime FileHelper.cpp source
💡 Result:
There is no standard or official component named "FprimeExtras" or "FileHelper" in the core F Prime (F´) framework that provides a writeToFile utility [1][2]. File operations in F Prime are handled by the Operating System abstraction layer, specifically the Os::File class [3][4][5]. If you are looking for how to write data to a file in F Prime, you should use the Os::File class. The standard interface for writing data is the write method, which is defined in the Os::File header [4][5][6]: Status write(const U8* buffer, FwSizeType& size); Status write(const U8* buffer, FwSizeType& size, WaitType wait) override; The Os::File::write method writes data from a buffer to the file [4][5]. When using the overloaded version with a WaitType parameter, you can specify whether the call should block (WAIT) until the data is written to disk or return immediately (NO_WAIT) after the data is handed off to the operating system [4][5]. If you encountered a reference to a "FileHelper" class, it may be part of a custom project-specific utility or an external library not included in the core F Prime framework (e.g., Grid Solutions Framework uses a FileHelper class, but it is unrelated to F Prime) [7].

"FileHelper.hpp" "writeToFile" "Os::File"
💡 Result:
The F' (F Prime) flight software framework provides the Os::File class for file operations, defined in the header file Os/File.hpp [1][2]. The Os::File class does not typically contain a helper class named FileHelper.hpp with a static writeToFile method. Instead, file writing is performed directly through the member functions of the Os::File class [3][4]. To write to a file using Os::File, you must: 1. Instantiate an Os::File object [3]. 2. Open the file using the open method, specifying the file path and the desired mode (e.g., Os::File::OPEN_WRITE or Os::File::OPEN_CREATE) [1][3]. 3. Use the write member function to transfer data from a buffer to the file [1][4]. The Os::File::write method is overloaded [3][4]: - Status write(const U8* buffer, FwSizeType& size): Writes data from the buffer up to the specified size. This version blocks until the requested data has been written [1][4]. - Status write(const U8* buffer, FwSizeType& size, WaitType wait): Allows specifying whether to wait for the write to complete (WAIT) or return once the data is sent to the OS (NO_WAIT) [3][4]. If you are looking for a higher-level "writeToFile" utility, it is not part of the standard F' Os::File API and would need to be implemented as a custom helper function in your application code using the provided Os::File interface [1][4]. Note: The Go programming language standard library also features an os package with functions like os.WriteFile, which is distinct from the F' C++ framework [5]. Ensure you are referencing the correct documentation for your specific environment.

Bound the SD-card persist inside the synchronous reboot fan-out. watchdog.stop_handler() invokes all prepareForReboot receivers on the stop path before m_run = false, and TcSecurityDeframer::prepareForReboot_handler() persists m_sequenceNumber synchronously via writeSequenceNumber(). A stalled SD-card persist can therefore delay every receiver in the failsafe reboot chain, including resetting m_run. Use a bounded/non-blocking persist, or queue this persist with an application-level timeout so the watchdog-stops are no longer blocked by SD-card latency.

Failsafe stop path now gated behind reboot-notification fan-out.
stop_handler is reachable from modeManager.stopWatchdog (autonomous command-loss recovery, per topology.fpp) and CdhCore.fatalHandler.stopWatchdog, not just the ground STOP_WATCHDOG command. Setting m_run = false — which starts the hardware-watchdog reset countdown — is now delayed by the full prepareForReboot_out fan-out, including TcSecurityDeframer's file write. See the root-cause comment on TcSecurityDeframer.cpp's prepareForReboot_handler.

Comment cites a stale fileUplink queue size.
This comment says commsFileBuffCount must exceed "FileHandling fileUplink queue size (10)", but FileHandlingConfig.fpp (same PR) raises fileUplink to 30, and its own comment describes the reverse dependency (fileUplink sized to hold commsBuffCount + commsFileBuffCount = 25). The two comments cross-reference stale/inconsistent numbers, which will mislead the next engineer who has to re-tune these constants.

Use the BufferRepeater opcode constant instead of hardcoding 0x0.
This depends on generated command ordering being unchanged, but the comment calls out the correct generated opcode name (OPCODE_CHANNEL_ENABLED_SET); import or generate that constant and use it here so a future interface change stops compiling instead of silently sending a different command.

F Prime autogenerated component header OPCODE_ command opcode constant name examples
💡 Result:
In F Prime (F'), the opcode constant names generated in autocoded component headers typically follow the pattern OPCODE_<COMMAND_MNEMONIC> [1][2]. When a command is defined in an FPP (F Prime Prime) or XML component definition file, the autocoder generates a C++ header for the component that includes an enumeration of available command opcodes [1][2]. For example, if you define a command with the mnemonic NO_OP in your component, the autogenerated header will contain a constant such as OPCODE_NO_OP [1][2]. Key details regarding this naming convention: 1. Generation Pattern: The prefix OPCODE_ is prepended to the command mnemonic [1][2]. If the command mnemonic itself contains a prefix (e.g., CMD_NO_OP), the generated constant name will reflect that (e.g., OPCODE_CMD_NO_OP) [1][2]. 2. Purpose: These constants provide a type-safe, human-readable way to reference command opcodes within the C++ implementation of the component, rather than using raw integer values [1][2]. 3. Autocoding: These constants are part of the component base class generated by the F Prime autocoder from FPP or XML files [3][4]. 4. Usage: These opcodes are used by the component's command dispatcher and command handlers to identify which command has been received [5][6]. The corresponding command handler function in the derived C++ class typically follows a pattern like _cmdHandler [3][4]. Example from the Svc::CommandDispatcherComponentBase documentation: - Mnemonic: CMD_NO_OP -> Constant: OPCODE_CMD_NO_OP [1][2] - Mnemonic: CMD_NO_OP_STRING -> Constant: OPCODE_CMD_NO_OP_STRING [1][2] - Mnemonic: CMD_TEST_CMD_1 -> Constant: OPCODE_CMD_TEST_CMD_1 [1][2]

Use the generated opcode constant instead of hardcoding 0x0.
Replace constexpr FwOpcodeType OPCODE_CHANNEL_ENABLED_SET = 0x0; with the autocoded constant generated for Utilities::BufferRepeater's CHANNEL_ENABLED_SET command, so this default remains valid if the component definition changes.

Tests rely on a private/mangled fprime_gds attribute, duplicated across the file.
downlinker._FileDownlinker__directory is a name-mangled private attribute of the fprime_gds FileDownlinker class, accessed directly in test_large_round_trip (line 215) and again in test_downlink_n_chunks (lines 352, 356, and four times in the diagnostic f-string at 358-363). This couples the suite to fprime_gds internals that can change without notice across library versions, and the repeated Path(...) / dest_name construction is duplicated logic.
Consider extracting a small helper, e.g. _downlink_path(downlinker, name) -> Path, and checking whether fprime_gds's IntegrationTestAPI/FileDownlinker exposes a public accessor for the download directory instead.

The prepareForReboot persist (previous commit) covers commanded resets, but the safe-mode reboot observed in CI is unplanned from firmware's view (load switch shutoff -> rig-side watchdog/power reset with no software hook), so the board resumes from the write-ahead mark and ground stays behind either way. Handle it ground-side, mirroring sync_sequence_number_test: - conftest: autouse fixture reads the board counter via bypass-listed GET_SEQ_NUM before each test and fast-forwards the framer plugin's sequence file when the board is ahead (ground-ahead is normal and left alone). Stops the post-reboot cascade that errored every later test file. - common.proves_send_and_assert_command: resync on every failed retry, so a test that spans a reboot (mode_manager safe tests) heals mid-test instead of exhausting its retries against silent rejections.

- rtc test_04: uplink_sequence_and_await_completion fired the file uplink immediately after a fire-and-forget CreateDirectory; when the START packet won the race the transfer died on FileOpenError and CS_RUN failed. Await directory creation (or its already-exists error completion) first. - mode_manager safe_09: asserted EnteringSafeMode from an instantaneous history snapshot; the safe-mode-entry event burst is occasionally lost on the downlink entirely. Await the event with a real timeout and fall back to the GET_SAFE_MODE_REASON == COMMAND_LOSS command oracle. - uart acceptance: tolerate high-water reaching the pool cap (a slow enough SD stall can transiently saturate any finite pool -- observed 25/25 on the CI rig vs 11/25 on the bench). Hard criteria stay: CRC-clean transfers, every buffer returned, board alive.

Reject directory-creation failures other than “already exists.”
If CreateDirectorySucceeded is absent, this awaits DirectoryCreateError but ignores both its presence and cause. A timeout or filesystem failure falls through to the uplink and reintroduces the race/failure this setup is meant to prevent. Assert an error was received and verify it is the idempotent existing-directory case.

Require a fresh buffer-health sample before tolerating saturation.
sample() retains latest, so after its first success it stops retrying even if the post-uplink SEND_PKT was lost. This branch can then accept pool saturation using stale CurrBuffs == 0 / HiBuffs data, without proving buffers recovered. Track telemetry received after each request and retry or fail when no fresh Health packet is observed.

…atch The downlink direction has the same no-ARQ residual frame corruption as the uplink (observed once in ~7 CI rounds: size-correct file, bytes differ).

lib/fprime/lib/fprime-extrasto OSSF fork fix branches so CI integration tests run against the new topology/telemetry schema — companion PRs: Open-Source-Space-Foundation/fprime#4, Open-Source-Space-Foundation/fprime-extras#1.Part 1 — write-ahead batched sequence-number persistence (fixes #461)
TcSecurityDeframerpersisted its authentication sequence number to SD synchronously on every accepted command. That per-command write races other components' filesystem operations on the shared FatFs mount, corrupting in-flight file writes. A/B was decisive: writer enabled 1/10 5-chunk uplinks passed; writer disabled 10/10, 20/20, and a 204KB stress passed.Replaced with write-ahead batched persistence:

Part 2 — survive buffer-pool exhaustion during SD-stalled uplinks (fixes #471)
An SD write stall mid-uplink backed buffers up until the comms pool exhausted, then a FATAL assert cascade (BufferCollector map overflow → FileUplink queue-full → CmdSequencer schedIn queue-full, 660 asserts/run) stopped the watchdog and left the board byte-silent until power cycle. Instrumentation showed the stalls are card-intrinsic FTL pauses (~1% of writes >50ms, max ~190–250ms observed; rate identical with fsSpace statvfs polling disabled) — unbounded and not removable in firmware, so the fix is headroom + never-FATAL degradation:
