|
|
* Moved to using C99 integer types and deprecate Zephyr integer types. The
|
|
Zephyr types can be enabled by Kconfig DEPRECATED_ZEPHYR_INT_TYPES option.

API Changes
|
|
***********
|
|
|
|
* Moved to using C99 integer types and deprecate Zephyr integer types. The
|
|
Zephyr types can be enabled by Kconfig DEPRECATED_ZEPHYR_INT_TYPES option.
|
|
|
|
* The ``<sys/util.h>`` header has been promoted to a documented API with
|
|
:ref:`experimental stability <api_lifecycle>`. See :ref:`util_api` for an API
|
|
reference.
|
|
|
|
* The :c:func:`wdt_feed` function will now return ``-EAGAIN`` if
|
|
issuing a feed would stall the caller. Application code may need to
|
|
ignore this diagnostic result or initiate another feed operation
|
|
later.
