pureboot: the activation window gets a behavioral gate, and honest per-poll constants under it
The window's per-poll cycle counts were hand-counted for a uint32_t countdown, but every default window fits uint24_t, whose decrement chain is one sbci shorter — so deployed loaders ran 9/10ths of their stated seconds (a 328P's 8 s was 7.2 s on the wire). No golden-asm pin can hold this: the loops compile in consumer context. pbwindow.py measures the behavior instead: it installs a real application beside the loader through the host tool's own plan_flash (surgery included), starts the simulator with the line idle, and reads the cycle of the first transmit — the application's banner, so that cycle is the window. Held at plus or minus 2 percent per chip (pureboot.window), red at -10.0 percent against the old constants, green with poll_cycles now counted for the narrow countdown (hardware 9, software 7; window_polls() solves narrow-first and adds the wide loop's cycle where the count forces uint32_t — a count narrow only at the wide cost stays wide, so the choice cannot oscillate). The autobaud window is its poll budget at the measured ten cycles a poll, gated the same way (pureboot.window.autobaud), and the README carries that arithmetic now. No version bump: timing-window precision is not meaningful behavior, v7 stays. The gate flushed out two runner gaps. The software bridge accepted any falling edge as a start bit, so the device's own TX-init glitch decoded as a stray byte; it re-samples mid-bit now and abandons a false start, as silicon does. And after avr_reset, the idle-line re-raise was silently dropped: ioport pin irqs are IRQ_FLAG_FILTERED and the irq's cached value survives the reset the port latch does not, so the device read the line stuck low, calibrate() measured reset-to-first-edge as one wrapping pulse, and the first knock after a reset could boot the application instead of locking — the intermittent autobaud failure. bridge_reset forces a real transition (0 then 1, no cycles between). The README's Autobaud column now carries each chip's worst configuration — autobaud with OSCCAL baked, on a USART's own pins where the chip has one (tinies: autobaud + OSCCAL) — the numbers the existing pureboot_autobaud_osccal[_on_usart0] matrix points already gate; sizes.py checks the column against exactly those targets. Tool sizes and window prose updated with it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
