Sterling Hughes updated MYNEWT-368:
-----------------------------------
Assignee: Peter Snyder (was: Vipul Rahane)
> Change logging format
> ---------------------
>
> Key: MYNEWT-368
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-368
> Project: Mynewt
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Newtmgr
> Reporter: Sterling Hughes
> Assignee: Peter Snyder
> Fix For: v1_0_0_beta1
>
>
> Right now newtmgr has an 8-bit index which goes along with a 64-bit
> timestamp. We are having trouble querying logs when time moves forward,
> because of the misordering of log entries.
> We should change this such that we have a 16-bit log index, which can be used
> to query logs remotely. A result of this will be to make the module an 8-bit
> value, which it is already assumed to be.
> While doing this change, on the FCB implementation, we should also add a
> short log entry header (4-bytes), that at least contains the version of the
> log format that we are writing, that way when we make changes in the future
> to the log format, the code can automatically wipe this sector and reformat
> it.
