EZSP 6.10.0.0 GA #18

Closed MattWestb closed 2 years ago

MattWestb commented 3 years ago

Silabs have released Zigbee EmberZNet SDK 6.10.0.0 GA.

But i have not finding any interesting fixes in the Zigbee stack but in the Gecko Platform 3.2.0.0 GA (Simplicity Studio 5) i have finding some interesting fixes that perhaps can helping:

I think the 2 first is not relevant but the last looks "fitting" in the picture.

I think it can being worth one shut testing is its helping users that still having problems with there sleeping end devices.

Wot i can see in ZHA was the EZSP 6.7.8.0 helping many users with this problem and the CTune fix in 6.7.9.0 was also doing but its still some users that having fast battery draining (48 hours = OTA updating all the time for 2 days).

I dont have the device but have running ZHA with one tuya MG21 module that have the same chip and its working great with cooked EZSP 6.7.9 0 and 6.9.2.0 on one WeMos D1 Mini running tasmota or ESPHome for weeks with 7 different IKEA remotes.

Then Silabs have updating the compilers i think it can being good doing extra testing before relenting new firmware then its very likely getting new bugs implanted that can needing time for being pinpointed and fixes from Silabs side.

And one great thanks for supporting the community and i think in the end its one win win situation for both !!!

@xsp1989 +1 requesting EmberZNet 6.10.1.0 (EmberZNet 6.10.1) or later Zigbee NCP firmware for ITead Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle,

https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/release-notes/emberznet-release-notes-6.10.1.0.pdf

https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/release-notes/emberznet-release-notes-6.10.0.0.pdf

See example:

Hedda commented 2 years ago

Again, I also like to suggest looking at increasing default configuration parameters in a "pro" firmware as suggested in https://github.com/xsp1989/zigbeeFirmware/issues/6 and https://github.com/xsp1989/zigbeeFirmware/pull/13

Configuration Parameter Value
Part EFR32MG21A020F768IM32
Version EZSP 6.10.0.0
CTUNE value 128
Address Table Size 32
Child Table Size 32
Source Routes 200
TX PB01
RX PB00
CTS ?
RTS ?
BTL PA00 (Low = BTL boot)
LED PC00

As I understand these are the "pro" configuration that tube0013 use in his EFR32MG21 Zigbee Coordinator Gateway devices (or?):

https://github.com/tube0013/tube_gateways/blob/main/tube_zb_gw_efr32/README.md

Specific Configuration for the Tube EFR32 Gateways

Because the EFR32 gateways uses some firrmware settings different than the bellows defaults it is recommended set them in the configuration.yaml so bellows will utilize them.

For EFR32 Series 2 Gateways with Firmware based on the 6.9.2 SDK please use the following config

Add these lines to your configuration.yaml file:

zha:
  zigpy_config:
    source_routing: true
    ezsp_config:
      CONFIG_APS_UNICAST_MESSAGE_COUNT: 64
      CONFIG_MAX_END_DEVICE_CHILDREN: 32
      CONFIG_SOURCE_ROUTE_TABLE_SIZE: 200
      CONFIG_ROUTE_TABLE_SIZE: 16
      CONFIG_ADDRESS_TABLE_SIZE: 32
      CONFIG_PACKET_BUFFER_COUNT: 250
      CONFIG_BINDING_TABLE_SIZE: 32
      CONFIG_NEIGHBOR_TABLE_SIZE: 26

Child Table Size | 64 is out of question in all my firmware i shall being standard or being lowered. It need being sett >0 for adding the first device (also routers) and then it can being sett to zero in ZHA config so all end devices is being blocked for using the coordinator as there parent and forcing them using routers then its 64 blocks or RAM allocated and not used = resource locked and not used that an being used for better things (if being configured in the firmware is allocated of the CPU and if being used or not by the host system) like buffer for the Zigbee stack.

I is running my production and 2 test network with Child Table Size 1 for adding the first routers and then zero and its working great and the end device is not leaving the network if the coordinator is offline for days and coming back on line.

Forcing SED using routers and have good working routers (no old OSRAM Plugs and so on) in range is the key getting one Zigbee mesh working OK and with SM-011 modules its very importing then having problems with the stability of the module and WiFi interference from the ESP32.

And the some parameters is not helping at all then its out of range for standard Zigbee certified device and then the mesh is using the certified parameters that Raul was writing and then its miss using the resources on the chip.

FYI, Elelabs has now released EmberZNet v6.10 firmware for their EFR32 based adapters (based on EFR32MG12 though):

https://github.com/Elelabs/elelabs-zigbee-ezsp-utility/blob/master/data/EFR32MG13/ELE_MG13_zb_ncp_115200_610_211112.gbl

https://github.com/Elelabs/elelabs-zigbee-ezsp-utility/commit/31f8e9c09d612734edbe41619240162fe595ecc5

Added

Their firmware update tool has also been updated with a few new features:

@Hedda @MattWestb EmberZNet v6.10 firmware it's OK https://github.com/xsp1989/zigbeeFirmware/blob/master/firmware/Zigbee3.0_Dongle/ncp-uart-sw_v6.10.3_115200.gbl

xsp1989 commented 2 years ago

Another piece of good news is that routing firmware will be released soon

MattWestb commented 2 years ago

@s-hadinger interested testing if its working well on the ZBB that is SWD flashed ? By the way great thanks @xsp1989 !!!

s-hadinger commented 2 years ago

I don't have much time right now for Zigbee testing. I'm deeply involved in Berry scripting for Tasmota and some other projects
