feat(uf2): record the last bootloader fault and show it in INFO_UF2.TXT - #82
Bootloader faults reset with no trace, so every strand so far was diagnosed by guessing. The fault handler now saves the id, pc and error code in RAM that survives the reset, and INFO_UF2.TXT shows them as a Last-Fault: line on the next drive session.
Tested on the T1000-E with a bench-only build that injects an APP_ERROR_CHECK: Last-Fault: id=0x4001 pc=0x0 info=0x1234abcd, and the line is gone on the following session (2 runs). No Last-Fault: line on healthy boards.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Fault details are now recorded and can appear as a Last-Fault entry in INFO_UF2.TXT.
When no valid application is installed, a USB host can show a UF2 drive with a “NO FIRMWARE” status; on battery, the device waits for BLE OTA.
Connecting a USB cable during BLE OTA wait can bring up the UF2 drive if no phone is connected and VBUS remains present for 250 ms.
Bug Fixes
Improved reliability of flash operations and bootloader update handling.

Walkthrough
The changes update no-application recovery through USB and BLE, add fault records that can appear in UF2 information, and invalidate the existing application when a UF2 copy starts. They also adjust SDK DFU and flash handling, centralize BLE settings, and enable link-time optimization.
Changes: USB and BLE recovery
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Retain and report fault records src/fault_record.h, linker/*.ld, src/main.c, src/usb/uf2/ghostfat.c, README.md
Linker scripts reserve 16 bytes for fault data. The error handler records fault details, and UF2 can display them in INFO_UF2.TXT as Last-Fault:.
Select USB or BLE recovery src/main.c, src/usb/usb.c, README.md, AGENTS.md
When no valid application exists, the firmware selects UF2 based on settled VBUS and USB host state. It also watches for cable changes during BLE OTA and documents the recovery paths.
Invalidate the previous application on UF2 copy src/usb/uf2/uf2.h, src/usb/uf2/ghostfat.c, changelog.md
The first accepted application-space write marks bank_0 erased. The copy state records that this has happened.
SDK DFU and flash handling
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Share BLE DFU configuration src/ble_dfu_cfg.h, src/main.c, lib/sdk11/components/ble/ble_services/ble_dfu/ble_dfu.c, lib/sdk11/components/libraries/bootloader_dfu/dfu_transport_ble.c
The application and SDK use shared BLE event-length, ATT MTU, and connection-bandwidth settings.
Update DFU and flash queue state handling lib/sdk11/components/libraries/bootloader_dfu/bootloader.c, lib/sdk11/components/drivers_nrf/pstorage/pstorage_raw.c
The bootloader preserves settings-saving status during reset and sets update status when a session starts. The flash store path starts queued work when no flash request is active, and unrelated SoC events no longer clear flash-access state.
The compiler flags add -flto. The changelog reports an image-size reduction of about 3.3 KB without behavior, section-address, or SoftDevice call-site changes.

Merge Risk: Low · up to f37f9
After a host ejects the UF2 drive on a board with no application and VBUS still present, the bootloader may reset without entering the documented BLE OTA wait. This is a narrow recovery-flow edge case and the device remains recoverable, so it is mergeable with this awareness.

Clear the mount flag on eject as well as on unmount.
_host_mounted is set in tud_mount_cb() and never cleared. tud_umount_cb() does not run when the host ejects the drive. TinyUSB calls it only on unplug, on SET_CONFIGURATION 0, and on deinit. Suspend does not call it. An eject therefore leaves the flag true while VBUS is still present. The reset marker in src/main.c can then be 0 instead of DFU_MAGIC_OTA_RESET, which can skip the documented BLE wait.
Clear the flag in tud_umount_cb() for the unplug case. Clear it in the eject branch of tud_msc_start_stop_cb() for the eject case.
