Release 6.0.0

Breaking change

This release introduces the following backwards-incompatible changes to the public API:

• All methods to attach interrupts (e.g., setDioAction(), setGdoAction() etc.) no longer have a default level change direction.
• Signature of all methods/functions that use pin numbers (e.g. the Module constructor) changed from platform-dependent "pin type" changed to a common type (uint32_t)
• Reworked hardware abstraction

Other changes:

• [MOD] Fixed some signed comparison warnings

• [CC1101] Added missing standby overload
• [Pager] Added missing exclude direct receive guards (Saving flash space #697)
• add functions to PhysicalLayer interface (by @gasagna)
• [SX126x] Added frequency error reading
• [SX126x] Fixed chip id (RA-01SC (LLCC68) module: wrong compare string leads to "failed, code -2"  #707)
• [SX126x] Fix failure to enable low power sleep on CubeCell AB01 (by @gasagna)
• [SX126x] Fixed frequency error calculation (SX1262 Frequency Error #706)
• [SX127x] Explicitly enabled CRC (SX1262 Frequency Error #706)
• [SX126x] Explicitly enabled CRC (SX1262 Frequency Error #706)
• [SX1278] New getInstRSSI to get current RSSI
• [PHY] Fixed startReceive compatibility (add functions to PhysicalLayer interface #700)
• [SX126x] Added spectral scan in frequency
• [SX127x] & [SX126x] read current RSSI for getRSSI
• [SX126x] Unified getRSSI interface
• [SX127x] Unified getRSSI interface
• [SX126x] Fix intermittent failure to initialise cubecell (SX1262 Frequency Error #706) (by @gasagna)
• [MOD] Fixed swapped NSS/BUSY order (SX128X begin() SPI timeout when BUSY defined on certain platforms #716)
• [SX126x] Fixed packet length in LoRa implicit mode
• [SX128x] Fixed packet length in implicit mode (SX128X begin() SPI timeout when BUSY defined on certain platforms #716)

• [STM32WL] Fixed build for Platformio (Platformio STM32WL fails due to missing SubGhz #718)
• [SX127x] Added missing explicit CRC configuration
• [SX127x] Removed standby before data read
• [SX126x] Remove standby before data read (SX126x IRQ handling does not follow the normal operation mode #703)
• [SX126x] Fixed IQ inversion not caching (SX1262 + invertIQ() #731)
• [SX128x] Fixed IQ inversion
• [HAL] Improve hardware abstraction layer (Improve hardware abstraction layer #730) (by @Mesteery)

Hi Jan,

All methods to attach interrupts no longer have a default level change direction.

This seems to only apply to SX127x currently, and not SX126x (or 8x). Do you plan to extend the new rule to those as well?

[jgromes]

This was done on CC1101 and SX127x because those already had a default value for the parameter direction. Because of the changes to HAL, it was no longer possible to have that. SX126x and others currently do not expose the direction parameter at all, so there was no change to the public API there.

With module LLCC68, when I use 6.0.0 or 5.7.0，I get error : 'RADIOLIB_ERR_CHIP_NOT_FOUND, but 5.6.0 all is right,
