The full 1.0 client surface, matching the protocol v2 wire definitions from donglora-protocol 1.0.0.
* Public API is now async. The blocking Client<T: Transport> is replaced by Dongle (from donglora_client::connect / connect_with / ConnectOptions).
* src/client.rs and src/codec.rs are removed in favor of src/dongle.rs (high-level surface), src/session.rs (per-client tag/slot state), src/retry.rs (RetryPolicy + tx_with_retry), src/errors.rs (thiserror-based ClientError / ClientResult). src/protocol.rs is replaced by direct donglora-protocol imports.
* Transport is now tokio-serial for USB and tokio::net::{UnixStream, TcpStream} for mux, replacing the blocking serial + shim model.
* Dongle::tx_with_retry(data, &RetryPolicy) implements PROTOCOL.md §6.10 randomized backoff for CHANNEL_BUSY / EBUSY, returning a TxOutcome with per-attempt trace.
* Background keepalive task pings every 500 ms on host idle, tracking the 1 s inactivity timeout from §3.4 with 2x margin. Disable via ConnectOptions::keepalive(false).
* Auto-recovery from ERR(ENOTCONFIGURED): the Dongle caches the last SET_CONFIG and silently re-applies on session drop, retrying once.
* Error taxonomy switches from anyhow to thiserror. Transport-level conditions (Timeout, TransportClosed, ReaderExited, BadFrame) are first-class.
* Examples rewritten for the async API: examples/ping.rs, examples/tx.rs, examples/rx.rs all target the MeshCore US preset (910.525 MHz / BW 62.5 / SF 7 / CR 4/5 / sync 0x1424 / 20 dBm). examples/common/mod.rs holds the shared helper.
* tests/vectors.rs gains protocol-level roundtrip coverage anchored to the published donglora-protocol 1.0.0 types.
Track mux usage with a static AtomicBool. Once a mux connection
succeeds, all future connect() calls in the same process only try
the mux. connect() blocks waiting for the socket to reappear;
try_connect() returns an error so callers can retry with backoff.
When a mux socket file exists, connect(None, timeout) and try_connect()
now commit to the mux — returning an error if unreachable instead of
silently falling through to USB serial. This prevents a race condition
where a client could steal the serial port from the mux during reconnect.
Callers with explicit port = Some(...) are unaffected.
- Add ping-on-connect handshake: all connect functions validate the device
within 200ms, rejecting non-DongLoRa serial devices immediately
- Add try_connect() — non-blocking connect that errors instead of blocking
forever when no USB device is present
- Add payload size validation in transmit() (max 256 bytes)
- Add ErrorCode: impl std::error::Error
- Fix drain_rx error handling (no longer swallows original error)
- Fix repository URL to github.com/donglora/client-rs
- Remove wire-level tag constants from top-level re-exports
- Add rust-version (MSRV 1.85), homepage, exclude fields to Cargo.toml
- Add examples/ping.rs
- Allow clippy unwrap/expect in test modules
- Track serial timeout in field instead of returning hardcoded 2s
- Always restore timeout in drain_rx, even on read errors
- Handle EINTR/Interrupted in read_frame (retry instead of error)
- Use connect_timeout for TCP mux (no more 2-min hangs)
- Set write timeout on mux sockets (unix + tcp)
- Log unexpected unsolicited frames in recv via tracing::warn
- Add unix socket timeout test for WouldBlock handling
- Add CHANGELOG.md, remove resolved CLAUDE_TODO.md
