Release 0.1.0-alpha.8.7

A small release of fixes. On the ARMADA family the receive path no longer reads an earlier lap's descriptor as a new frame, nor gives one buffer to two frames - a fault that grows once it starts, and fits what an XGS 107 has been showing (#748). Taking the coprocessor up again in place, the default since 0.1.0-alpha.8.6, now works where it had to ask the XGS 3300's coprocessor console to reboot it, and on the XGS 136 no longer races the coprocessor's own watchdog. The drivers changed, so the update asks for a reboot.

Improvements and additions

  • Problem reports: one issue when an appliance restarts mid-send; LAGG ports named by tag (#825)
  • ARMADA receive path: every slot it takes stamped again, and no buffer read or given back twice (#748) (#826)
  • Taking the coprocessor up again in place: its console's reboot (busybox's), a host UART that lost its interrupt attached again, the console left to the recovery, nothing written to a coprocessor taken as gone, the management link given its address again, and on ARMADA the coprocessor reset before the driver is unloaded (#768) (#827)

The release, with its files: v0.1.0-alpha.8.7 on GitHub.
