Changelog

All notable changes to this project are documented in this file.

nrf_modem

Core library

• Added:

  • A header file nrf_modem_toolchain.h for compiler attributes used in other header files.

  • Binaries for the nRF9230 SoC for internal development.

  • A header file nrf_modem_os_rpc.h for the nRF9230 SoC RPC OS glue.

AT interface

• Added:

  • Logging for AT responses and notifications to the logging binaries.

  • Format helpers to AT functions that take a variable number of arguments to improve type checking.

Sockets

• Added:

  • The capability to read the value of the NRF_SO_KEEPOPEN socket option with modem firmware v2.0.2 and higher.

  • The NRF_SO_IPV6_DELAYED_ADDR_REFRESH socket option to delay the IPv6 address refresh until the device wakes up from PSM or eDRX sleep. This prevents the device from waking up solely to refresh the address. This socket option is supported by modem firmware v1.3.7 and higher and modem firmware v2.0.2 and higher.

• Updated the nrf_getaddrinfo() function to support up to three concurrent DNS requests.

• Removed:

  • The deprecated types nrf_sec_cipher_t, nrf_sec_peer_verify_t, nrf_sec_role_t, and nrf_sec_session_cache_t.

  • The deprecated RAI socket options NRF_SO_RAI_NO_DATA, NRF_SO_RAI_LAST, NRF_SO_RAI_ONE_RESP, NRF_SO_RAI_ONGOING, and NRF_SO_RAI_WAIT_MORE.

DECT NR+

• Added:

  • Physical layer control field header formats.

  • New API for STF cover sequence control. This API is intended for certification purposes only and should not be used under normal operation.

• Updated the documentation to state that RSSI reporting interval is measured in slots and not subslots.

Tracing

• Updated the function nrf_modem_trace_get() to now return -NRF_EPERM if trace interface is not initialized.

nrf_modem 2.7.0

The library is now released in two variants, with different feature sets and support for different variants of the nRF91 Series firmware.

• The cellular variant, with support for cellular firmware.

• The DECT PHY variant, with support for DECT NR+ PHY firmware.

Core library

DECT NR+

• Added new interface for the DECT NR+ PHY firmware.

nrf_modem 2.6.1

Sockets

• Fixed a bug where the nrf_recv() and nrf_recvfrom() functions erroneously returned -1 and set errno to NRF_EAGAIN instead of returning 0 when these three conditions were met:

  • The nrf_recv() and nrf_recvfrom() functions were called with the NRF_MSG_DONTWAIT flag or when the socket is non-blocking (NRF_O_NONBLOCK is set on the socket).

  • The socket was closed by the server.

  • There was no more data to read (End Of File (EOF)).

• Added APGS notification support.

• Fixed an issue where AGPS data could not be written when the GPS socket was in stopped state.

• Fixed a memory leak in GPS socket.

bsdlib 0.4.3

Updated the library with the following changes:

• Added support for signaling if a peer sends larger TLS fragments than receive buffers can handle. If this scenario is triggered, NRF_ENOBUFS is reported in recv(). The link is also disconnected on TLS level by issuing an Encryption Alert, and TCP is reset from the device side. Subsequent calls to send() or recv() report NRF_ENOTCONN. The feature will be supported in an upcoming modem firmware version.

• Resolved an issue where sending large TLS messages very close to each other in time would result in a blocking send() that did not return.

bsdlib 0.4.2

• Reduced ROM footprint.

• Miscellaneous improvements to PDN sockets.

• Fixed an issue when linking with mbedTLS.

bsdlib 0.4.1

Updated the library with the following changes:

• Added socket option NRF_SO_PDN_CONTEXT_ID for PDN protocol sockets to retrieve the Context ID of the created PDN.

• Added socket option NRF_SO_PDN_STATE for PDN protocol socket to check the active state of the PDN.

• Fixed a TCP stream empty packet indication when a blocking receive got the peer closed notification while waiting for data to arrive.

• Fixed an issue where IP sockets did not propagate a fine-grained error reason, and all disconnect events resulted in NRF_ENOTCONN. Now the error reasons could be one of the following: NRF_ENOTCONN, NRF_ECONNRESET, NRF_ENETDOWN, NRF_ENETUNREACH.

• Fixed an issue with a blocking send() operation on IP sockets that was not really blocking but returning immediately in case of insufficient memory to perform the operation. The new behavior is that blocking sockets will block until the message is sent. Also, because of internal limitations, a non-blocking socket might block for a short while until shortage of memory has been detected internally, and then return with errno set to NRF_EAGAIN.

• Corrected errno that is set by send() from NRF_ENOMEM to NRF_EMSGSIZE in case of attempts on sending larger messages than supported by the library.

• Added a define BSD_IP_MAX_MESSAGE_SIZE in bsd_limits.h to hint what size is used to report NRF_EMSGSIZE in the updated send() function.

• Fixed an issue with nrf_inbuilt_key_read() not respecting the p_buffer_len input parameter, making it possible for the library to write out-of-bounds on the buffer provided.

bsdlib 0.4.0

• Added AGPS support to GNSS socket driver.

• Added support for GNSS power save modes.

• Added support for deleting stored GPS data.

• Changed NRF_CONFIG_NMEA* define names to NRF_GNSS_NMEA* for alignment.

bsdlib 0.3.4

Updated library with various changes:

• Improved error handling when running out of memory.

• Modified nrf_inbuilt_key_exists() so that it does not return an error if a key does not exist. p_exists will be updated correctly in this case.

• Fixed a memory leak in nrf_inbuilt_key_exists() on error.

bsdlib 0.3.3

Updated library with various changes:

• Bug fix internal to the library solving issue with unresponsive sockets.

bsdlib 0.3.1

Updated library with various changes:

• Corrected GNSS API to not fault if not read fast enough.

• Improved length reporting on GNSS NMEA strings to report length until zero-termination.

• Improved closing of GNSS socket. If closed, it will now also stop the GNSS from running.

• Corrected bitmask value of NRF_GNSS_SV_FLAG_UNHEALTHY.

• Added side API for APN Class management.

• Removed NRF_SO_PDN_CLASS from nrf_socket.h as it is replaced by side API for APN class management.

• Added implementation of inet_pton() and inet_ntop().

• Added empty packet to indicate EOF when TCP peer has closed the connection.

• Added NRF_POLLHUP to poll() bitmask to indicate sockets that peer has closed the connection (EOF).

bsdlib 0.3.0

Updated library with experimental GNSS support.

bsdlib 0.2.4

Updated library with bug fixes:

bsdlib 0.2.3

Updated library with various changes:

• Updated library to use nrf_oberon v3.0.0.

• Updated the library to be deployed without inbuilt libc or libgcc symbols (-nostdlib -nodefaultlibs -nostartfiles -lnosys).

• Updated API towards bsd_os_timedwait function. The timeout parameter is now an in and out parameter. The bsd_os implementation is now expected to set the remaining time left of the time-out value in return.

bsdlib 0.2.2

Updated library with API for setting APN name when doing getaddrinfo request.

• Providing API through nrf_getaddrinfo, ai_next to set a second hint that defines the APN name to use for getaddrinfo query. The hint must be using NRF_AF_LTE, NRF_SOCK_MGMT, and NRF_PROTO_PDN as family, type, and protocol. The APN is set through the ai_canonname field.
