v1.17.2

This release updates the Linux kernel from 5.4 to 5.10 to follow the Raspberry
Pi OS.

• Updated dependencies
  • nerves_system_br v1.17.3
  • Erlang/OTP 24.1.4.
  • Linux 5.10.63 with Raspberry Pi patches

v1.17.1

This is a security/bug fix patch release. It should be safe to update for
everyone.

• Updated dependencies

  • nerves_system_br v1.17.1
  • Buildroot 2021.08.1
  • Erlang/OTP 24.1.2

• Improvements

  • Include software versioning and licensing info (see legal-info directory in
    artifact)
  • Support use of Bluetooth when running on the Raspberry Pi Zero W.

v1.17.0

This release updates to Buildroot 2021.08 and OTP 24.1. If you have made a
custom system off this one, please review the nerves_system_br v1.17.0 release
notes.

• Updated dependencies
  • nerves_system_br v1.17.0
  • Buildroot 2021.08
  • Erlang/OTP 24.1

v1.16.2

This release updates Erlang/OTP from 24.0.3 to 24.0.5 and Buildroot from 2021.05
to 2021.05.1. Both of these are security/bug fix updates. This is expected to be
a safe upgrade from v1.16.1 for all users.

• Updated dependencies

  • nerves_system_br v1.16.4
  • Erlang/OTP 24.0.5

• Improvements

  • Beta support for using a runtime.exs script for runtime configuration.
  • Added a provision task to the fwup.config to enable re-provisioning a
    MicroSD card without changing its contents.
  • Adds a default /etc/sysctl.conf that enables use of ICMP in Erlang. This
    requires nerves_runtime v0.11.5 or later to automatically load the sysctl
    variables. With it using :gen_udp to send/receive ICMP will "just work".
    It also makes it easier to add other sysctl variables if needed.

v1.16.1

This release updates Nerves Toolchains to v1.4.3 and OTP 24.0.3. It should be safe for everyone to apply.

• Updated dependencies
  • nerves_system_br v1.16.1
  • Erlang/OTP 24.0.3
  • nerves toolchains v1.4.3

v1.16.0

This release updates to Buildroot 2021.05 and OTP 24.0.2. If you have made a
custom system off this one, please review the nerves_system_br v1.16.0 release
notes.

• Updated dependencies

  • nerves_system_br v1.16.0
  • Buildroot 2021.05
  • Erlang/OTP 24.0.2

• Improvements

  • This release now contains debug symbols and includes the Build-ID in the
    ELF headers. This makes it easier to get stack traces from C programs. As
    before, the Nerves tooling strips all symbols from firmware images, so this
    won't make programs bigger.
  • Enable compile-time wpa_supplicant options to support WPA3, mesh
    networking, WPS and autoscan.

v1.15.1

This is a security/bug fix release that updates to Buildroot 2021.02.1 and OTP
23.3.1. It should be safe for everyone to apply.

• Improvements

  • espeak has been removed from the default install to trim 13 MB off the root
    filesystem

• Updated dependencies

  • nerves_system_br v1.15.1
  • Buildroot 2021.02
  • Erlang/OTP 23.3.1

v1.15.0

This release updates to Buildroot 2021.02 and OTP 23.2.7. If you have made a
custom system off this one, please review the nerves_system_br v1.15.0 release
notes.

The Nerves toolchain has also been updated to v1.4.2. This brings in Linux 4.14
headers to enable use of cdev and eBPF. This won't affect most users.

• Updated dependencies
  • nerves_system_br v1.15.0
  • Buildroot 2021.02
  • Erlang/OTP 23.2.7
  • nerves toolchains v1.4.2

v2.0.0-rc.2

Sync with changes up to v1.14.1

v1.14.1

This is a patch release for v1.14.0 which fixes the ABI spec passed for zigler.

• Improvements
  • A few unused directories in /etc have been removed. These primarily were
    network initialization script directories that aren't used on Nerves, but
    were provided by default by Buildroot.
