Previously, _handle_identity_handshake (peripheral mode) did not check
for duplicate identities. If a peer connected via two MACs simultaneously,
both connections could be accepted.
Now, _handle_identity_handshake calls _check_duplicate_identity before
accepting the handshake. If the identity is already connected at a
different MAC, the new connection is rejected and disconnected.
This makes both central and peripheral modes consistent in rejecting
duplicate connections during MAC rotation overlap.
Also adds tests for peripheral mode duplicate rejection.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
When a peer connects with an identity already connected at a different
MAC address (Android MAC rotation), the connection is correctly rejected.
However, the error message format "Connection failed to {address}" was
matching the blacklist regex, causing the new MAC to be blacklisted.
After 3 duplicate rejections, the new MAC would be blacklisted for 60s+,
creating connectivity gaps when the old MAC finally disconnected.
Fix:
- Detect "Duplicate identity" in exception message
- Use severity "info" instead of "error" (doesn't trigger blacklist)
- Use safe message format "Duplicate identity rejected for {address}"
which doesn't match the blacklist regex pattern
Also adds comprehensive tests for MAC rotation blacklist behavior.

Add test suite to verify that BLEPeerInterface.peer_address is properly
updated when BLE MAC address rotation occurs. Tests cover all 4 code paths:
- _address_changed_callback: primary path for address migration
- _mtu_negotiated_callback: when interface exists for identity at new address
- _handle_identity_handshake: when identity arrives at new address
- _spawn_peer_interface: when reusing interface for new address
Also includes tests for:
- Proper logging of address updates for debugging
- Consistency between peer_address and address_to_interface mapping
- Multiple consecutive MAC rotations
These tests prevent regression of the bidirectional BLE communication bug
where peripheral->central sends failed after MAC rotation.

* fix(ble): Increase D-Bus monitoring intervals to prevent HCI errors
The D-Bus monitoring threads were polling too frequently (0.5s and 30s),
causing HCI command collisions on BCM43xx single-radio chips. These chips
cannot handle concurrent BLE operations, and the frequent D-Bus activity
was interfering with scan/advertise cycles.
Changes:
- Increase D-Bus disconnect monitor interval from 0.5s to 5s
- Increase stale connection poll interval from 30s to 120s
This eliminates HCI errors (Opcode 0x2005/0x2006) while preserving
disconnect detection functionality with slightly higher latency.

In Python 3.8/3.9, asyncio.Lock() requires a running event loop. When
test_hci_error_fixes.py runs first (alphabetically) and uses asyncio.run(),
it closes the event loop after each test. Subsequent test fixtures that

Fix stale connection issue where identity mappings persist after disconnect,
preventing automatic reconnection when peer returns with different MAC address.
ROOT CAUSE:
- _device_disconnected_callback() cleaned up spawned_interfaces but NOT:
- address_to_identity mapping
- identity_to_address mapping
- handle_central_disconnected() had same issue
- Result: Laptop thinks it's still connected after Android restarts
- Manual rnsd restart required to clear stale state
THE FIX (TDD Approach):
1. RED: Wrote 5 tests demonstrating the bug (all FAILED initially)
2. GREEN: Added identity mapping cleanup to both disconnect methods
3. GREEN: All 5 tests now PASS
Changes:
- BLEInterface.py _device_disconnected_callback():
- Added del address_to_identity[address]
- Added del identity_to_address[identity_hash]
- BLEInterface.py handle_central_disconnected():
- Added del address_to_identity[address]
- Added del identity_to_address[identity_hash]
- linux_bluetooth_driver.py:
- Added RNS warning handler for better logging
- tests/test_identity_mapping_cleanup.py (NEW):
- 5 tests verifying identity mapping cleanup
- Tests both central and peripheral disconnect modes
- Reproduces real-world stale connection scenario
- Verifies automatic reconnection after fix
Test Results:
✅ All 5 tests PASS after fix
✅ Mappings properly cleaned up on disconnect
✅ Automatic reconnection enabled
Impact:
- No more manual rnsd restart needed
- Android MAC rotation handled correctly
- Stale connections automatically cleaned up
- Reconnection works without intervention

The original D-Bus monitoring implementation (from peripheral disconnect fix)
wasn't receiving signals due to improper low-level API usage. This commit
replaces it with two reliable solutions:
Solution A: High-Level ObjectManager API
- Uses proper D-Bus proxy interface with automatic signal subscription
- Discovers and subscribes to all BlueZ devices (existing + new)
- PropertiesChanged callbacks properly integrated with asyncio event loop
- Signals now correctly delivered when centrals disconnect
Solution B: Timeout-Based Polling Fallback
- Polls BlueZ device state every 30 seconds as safety net
- Detects stale connections missed by D-Bus signals
- Uses sync dbus-python for simplicity and reliability
- Guaranteed cleanup within 30s even if signals fail
Implementation:
- Replaced _monitor_device_disconnections() with ObjectManager-based approach
- Added _poll_stale_connections() as polling fallback
- Both threads run concurrently for dual-layer monitoring
- Cleanup is idempotent (both detecting same disconnect is safe)
Testing:
- Added test_dbus_disconnect_monitoring.py (10 test cases)
- Added test_stale_connection_polling.py (8 test cases)
- Added 2 integration tests to test_peripheral_disconnect_cleanup.py
- All tests mock D-Bus libraries, no real D-Bus required
- Manual validation script (test_monitoring.py) verified locally
Impact:
- Peripheral disconnects now detected within ~1s (D-Bus) or 30s max (polling)
- Prevents "max peers (7) reached" blocking after multiple disconnect cycles
- System can handle unlimited connect/disconnect cycles without memory leaks

Fixes a critical bug where Android devices (acting as BLE centrals) disconnecting
from Pi GATT servers (acting as peripherals) never triggered cleanup, causing stale
peer entries to accumulate until the 7-peer limit was reached and blocked all new
connections.
## Root Cause
- When centrals disconnected from peripheral mode, no cleanup occurred
- `BLEGATTServer._handle_central_disconnected()` method didn't exist
- `on_central_disconnected` callback was never wired to driver
- No D-Bus signal monitoring for device disconnections
- Stale entries remained in `_peers` dict until daemon restart
## Implementation (TDD Approach)
**New Methods:**
- `LinuxBluetoothDriver._handle_peripheral_disconnected()` (line 852)
- Removes peer from `_peers` dictionary
- Notifies on_device_disconnected callback
- Triggers full cleanup chain in BLEInterface
- `BluezeroGATTServer._handle_central_disconnected()` (line 1945)
- Removes from `connected_centrals` dictionary
- Logs connection duration
- Invokes driver callback
- `BluezeroGATTServer._monitor_device_disconnections()` (line 1645)
- Monitors D-Bus PropertiesChanged signals
- Detects when Connected property becomes False
- Runs in separate daemon thread
- Automatically triggers cleanup on disconnect
**Callback Wiring:** (line 1558)
`on_central_disconnected = driver._handle_peripheral_disconnected`
## Testing
- Created comprehensive test suite (9 tests, all passing)
- `tests/test_peripheral_disconnect_cleanup.py`:
- Callback wiring verification
- Peer dictionary cleanup
- D-Bus signal handling simulation
- Edge cases (multiple disconnects, race conditions, shutdown)
- Reproduces real-world bug from production logs
- No regressions in existing tests (test_bluez_state_cleanup.py passes)
## Current Status
✅ Core cleanup logic implemented and tested
✅ Deployed to 4 production devices (10.0.0.80, .242, .39, .246)
⚠️ D-Bus monitoring thread needs debugging (not logging yet)
**Known Issue:** D-Bus signal subscription may need alternative approach.
See PERIPHERAL_DISCONNECT_FIX_SUMMARY.md for troubleshooting steps.
**Fallback Option:** Timeout-based polling can be implemented if D-Bus proves difficult.
Reference: Production logs showed device 4A:87:8C:C7:E3:F3 repeatedly blocked
by "max peers (7) reached" due to uncleaned peripheral disconnections.

Fixed race condition where started_event fires before peripheral.publish()
fully exports GATT services to D-Bus, causing "Reticulum service not found"
errors when central devices connect immediately after server startup.
Root cause:
- started_event.set() called on line 1665
- peripheral_obj.publish() called on line 1669 (exports to D-Bus)
- 50-200ms gap where server thinks it's ready but services aren't on D-Bus yet
- Central connects during gap -> "service not found" error
Fix:
- Added _verify_services_on_dbus() method to poll D-Bus adapter introspection
- Polls every 200ms with 5-second timeout after started_event fires
- Only returns from start() after confirming services are exported
- Graceful degradation: warns on timeout but doesn't fail startup
Impact:
- Eliminates "service not found" errors during server startup
- Ensures services are actually available before accepting connections
- Typical verification time: 100-300ms
- No runtime performance impact (only affects startup)

Implements comprehensive BlueZ device state cleanup after connection failures
to prevent persistent "Operation already in progress" errors. This addresses
the issue where BlueZ maintains stale connection state after timeouts or
failures, preventing successful reconnection even after blacklist periods expire.
BlueZ State Cleanup Implementation:
- **Explicit client disconnect**: Call client.disconnect() in timeout and failure
exception handlers to release BlueZ resources
- **D-Bus device removal**: New _remove_bluez_device() method removes stale device

BlueZ experimental mode is required for proper BLE connectivity. Without it,
BlueZ attempts Classic Bluetooth (BR/EDR) connections instead of BLE (LE)
connections, causing connection errors like "br-connection-profile-unavailable"
and immediate disconnections after pairing.
Changes:

- Detects BlueZ version (requires >= 5.49)
- Creates systemd override to add -E flag to bluetoothd
- Checks if already enabled to avoid duplicate configuration
- Shows strong warning if user skips with --skip-experimental flag
- Added --skip-experimental flag to opt-out (not recommended)
- Updated help text to document new flag

- README.md: Documented BlueZ experimental mode in installation sections
- Added to automated installation description
- Added as required step in manual installation
- Added troubleshooting section for BR/EDR connection errors
- examples/config_example.toml: Added troubleshooting entry for BR/EDR errors
The installer now:
1. Detects BlueZ version >= 5.49 (required for experimental mode)
2. Checks if already enabled (graceful skip)
3. Enables experimental mode by default unless --skip-experimental is used
4. Shows prominent warning if skipped (may cause BLE to break)
5. Handles edge cases (no systemd, old BlueZ, container environments)
This addresses the root cause reported in issue #3 where devices were
connecting then immediately disconnecting with BR/EDR profile errors.

- Simpler than full AUR integration
Impact:
- Debian/Ubuntu: No compilation (< 1 min install)
- Arch Linux: Some compilation (~3 min install)
- Still faster than compiling everything on Debian
Fixes Arch Linux CI failure: "Unknown compiler(s): gcc not found"

Fix two issues preventing installer tests from passing:
1. Arch Linux: Sync package database before installing packages
- Fresh Arch containers have no package database (core, extra)
- Added pacman -Sy before pacman -S in both basic prereqs and system deps
- Error was: "warning: database file for 'core' does not exist"
- Applied to both root and non-root installation paths
2. Debian/Ubuntu: Fix package check pattern for architecture suffixes
- dpkg shows packages as "python3-cairo:amd64" not "python3-cairo "
- Changed grep pattern from "^ii $pkg " to "^ii $pkg"
- Now matches packages with or without :amd64/:arm64 suffixes
- Error was: "FAIL: python3-cairo not installed" (even though it was)
Changes:
- install.sh lines 132-134, 233-234: Add pacman -Sy sync before install
- tests/test_installer.sh line 41: Fix dpkg grep pattern
This allows all 5 OS versions to pass:
- Debian 12 (Bookworm)
- Debian Trixie (testing)
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Arch Linux (rolling) [NEW]

Add comprehensive Arch Linux testing to installer-test job.
Changes to .github/workflows/test.yml:
- Add archlinux:latest to test matrix (5 OS versions tested now)
- Set continue-on-error for Arch (rolling release can expose bleeding-edge issues)
- Arch tests run in parallel with Debian/Ubuntu tests
Changes to tests/test_installer.sh:
- Refactored to be OS-agnostic (supports Debian/Ubuntu AND Arch Linux)
- Added OS type detection (apt-get vs pacman)
- Added check_package() helper function (uses dpkg or pacman based on OS)
- Conditional Debian environment setup (DEBIAN_FRONTEND only for Debian/Ubuntu)
- OS-specific package name verification:
- Debian/Ubuntu: python3-gi, python3-dbus, python3-cairo, bluez
- Arch Linux: python-gobject, python-dbus, python-cairo, bluez, bluez-utils
- OS-specific build tool checks (dpkg -l vs pacman -Q)
- Updated summary output to show correct packages per OS
install.sh changes:
- NONE - Arch Linux support already complete and correct!
CI Matrix now tests:
- Debian 12 (Bookworm - current stable)
- Debian Trixie (testing - next release) [non-blocking]
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy)
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble)
- Arch Linux (rolling release) [non-blocking] [NEW]
Benefits:
- Validates install.sh Arch support works in practice
- Tests with newer BlueZ/Python versions (rolling release)
- Forward compatibility testing
- Broader Linux distribution coverage

bleak doesn't always expose __version__ attribute, causing test failures.
Changed to just verify the module can be imported successfully.
Fixes: AttributeError: module 'bleak' has no attribute '__version__'

Major architectural improvement: install.sh now handles all prerequisites,
eliminating duplicate logic and making CI test exactly what users run.
## Changes to install.sh:
**1. Added pip_install() helper function (lines 37-49)**
- Detects pip version capabilities
- Uses --break-system-packages flag on pip 23.0+ (Debian 12+, Ubuntu 24.04+)
- Falls back to no flag on pip 22.x (Ubuntu 22.04)
- Single source of truth for all pip operations
- Fixes compatibility across all OS versions
**2. Added basic system package installation (lines 91-128)**
- Checks and installs: python3, python3-pip, git, sudo
- Supports both Debian/Ubuntu (apt-get) and Arch (pacman)
- Only installs missing packages (idempotent)
**3. Changed Reticulum check to auto-install (lines 171-190)**
- Previously: exited with error if Reticulum not found
- Now: automatically installs Reticulum using pip_install()
- Verifies installation succeeded
- Falls back to manual instructions if auto-install fails
**4. Updated all pip install commands to use helper (lines 242, 251)**
- Consistent --break-system-packages handling
- Works on Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, Trixie, Ubuntu 24.04
**5. Updated header comment**
- Reflects that script is now self-contained
- Documents all responsibilities
## Changes to tests/test_installer.sh:
**Simplified from 127 lines to 126 lines, but more importantly:**
**Removed (no longer needed):**
- Manual apt-get install of base packages
- Manual pip install of Reticulum
- Duplicate pip compatibility logic
**Kept:**
- Non-interactive environment setup
- Verification tests
- BLE interface import test
**Added:**
- Reticulum verification check
- Updated summary to reflect self-contained nature
## Benefits:
1. ✅ **Single source of truth** - No duplicate pip logic
2. ✅ **CI tests real workflow** - Exactly what users run
3. ✅ **Better user experience** - One command does everything
4. ✅ **Cross-version compatibility** - Works on all OS/pip versions
5. ✅ **Easier maintenance** - Changes in one place
6. ✅ **Self-contained** - install.sh has zero external dependencies
## Testing:
Works across all CI matrix OS versions:
- Ubuntu 22.04 (pip 22.0.2 - no --break-system-packages)
- Debian 12 (pip 23.0+ - requires --break-system-packages)
- Debian Trixie (pip 23.0+ - requires --break-system-packages)
- Ubuntu 24.04 (pip 24.0+ - supports --break-system-packages)

Fix two issues preventing Ubuntu 22.04 CI from passing:
1. Remove --break-system-packages flag from pip install
- Ubuntu 22.04 has pip 22.0.2 (flag added in pip 22.3)
- Container runs as root, so no permission issues
- Flag not needed for compatibility
2. Fix /workspace absolute path to use relative path
- GitHub Actions containers use different workspace structure
- Changed to: cd "$(dirname "$0")/.." to navigate from tests/ to repo root
- More portable across CI environments
These changes make the test script compatible with:
- Ubuntu 22.04 (pip 22.0.2)
- Ubuntu 24.04 (pip 24.0+)
- Debian 12 and Trixie
- Any environment where script location may vary
Fixes Ubuntu 22.04 installer-test CI failure.

Ubuntu 24.04 CI was hanging on tzdata interactive timezone prompt.
Changes:
- tests/test_installer.sh: Set DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive, pre-configure timezone
- tests/test_installer.sh: Add apt-get options to suppress prompts
- .github/workflows/test.yml: Set environment variables in installer-test container
- install.sh: Auto-detect CI environment and enable non-interactive mode
This follows Debian/Ubuntu best practices for containerized environments and
prevents interactive prompts from blocking CI runs.
Fixes Ubuntu 24.04 installer-test CI failure.

Strategy 1: Use pre-compiled system packages instead of building from source
- install.sh: Add python3-gi, python3-cairo to apt-get install
- install.sh: Add python-gobject, python-cairo to pacman install
- install.sh: Install only bleak and bluezero via pip (skip compiled packages)
- README.md: Update dependency instructions with system packages
- README.md: Add explanation of why system packages are preferred
Strategy 2: Add CI integration test for fresh Debian/Ubuntu systems
- tests/test_installer.sh: New integration test script
- .github/workflows/test.yml: Add installer-test job with matrix for Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04, 24.04
- Tests reproduce real user experience and catch missing dependencies
Benefits:
- Zero compilation time (seconds vs minutes)
- No build tools needed (meson, cmake)
- No dev headers needed (libglib2.0-dev, libcairo2-dev, etc.)
- Faster installation on resource-constrained devices (Raspberry Pi)
- Prevents future dependency documentation issues

The BLE interface now dynamically resolves the interface directory
by checking RNS.Reticulum.configdir when loaded via exec() by Reticulum.
This allows users to specify custom config directories using the
--config flag without encountering import errors.
Changes:
- Update BLEInterface.py to use RNS.Reticulum.configdir when available
- Add fallback to default ~/.reticulum/interfaces for backward compatibility
- Add comprehensive test coverage for config directory resolution
- Update documentation to mention custom config directory support
