The bench run reported FAIL=3 with no NIC errors and no drops. All three
failures were on eth1 and all three were missing exactly icmp_seq=1,
with the other nine replies present and sub-millisecond. That is
neighbour resolution: once the ARP entry for the target expires, the
first echo request is spent resolving it and ping counts it as loss.
Rounds sat about 24 s apart, right on the edge of the default reachable
time, so it happened on some rounds and not others.
mgmt_ping_monitor.sh V3.0.0:
- One discarded ping per NIC before the measured run resolves ARP, so
MAX_LOSS_PCT can stay at 0 and a FAIL means a real drop. Raising the
threshold instead would have hidden genuine single-packet loss, and a
longer settle would not help -- nothing triggers ARP until the ping.
- Both NICs now ping at the same time and keep accumulating until
stopped, rather than alternating fixed bursts. Each writes its own raw
capture.
- `stop` sends SIGINT rather than SIGTERM, because ping prints its
statistics block on interrupt and that block is what the report
parses, then renders into the log: the last TAIL_LINES entries per
NIC, each one's statistics and verdict, and `ip -s link show` for both
interfaces.
- `-D -O` are on by default so every line carries a timestamp and a
request that got no reply is visible in the tail instead of merely
absent. Clear PING_EXTRA_OPTS if the platform's ping rejects them.
Since the script no longer re-execs itself to daemonise, `bash
mgmt_ping_monitor.sh start` works without the execute bit.
.gitignore: the new *.raw / *.pid / *.state runtime files were outside
the *.log rule and would have been committed.

publish/publish.sh packages src/Script_ABC_Blanton into
publish/Script_ABC_Blanton_<Ver>/, with -z for a zip, -f to overwrite,
-n for a dry run.
The version is read from Script A's "; Version :" header rather than
passed in, so the folder name cannot disagree with what the tester sees
on opening the macro. The header is CRLF, so the carriage return is
stripped -- left in, it becomes part of the directory name. Captured
logs are excluded (they carry DUT serials) but the empty logs/ is kept
because logopen writes there. .gitignore now admits the tool while
still ignoring its output.
config.ttl: testcase ENV, margin scan off for this run.
Docs brought up to date with the 14 commits since 8aa5c90 -- SWB
channel/address map, the traffic and BMC tooling, line-ending policy,
and the exec-bit and tail -f traps.

Bring the Blanton Tera Term TTL test suite under version control and
document how the pieces fit together.
- ARCHITECTURE.md: A/B/C script roles, host-to-DUT-to-FPGA data path,
config/settings/profile data models, PCIe AER + EDAC topology table,
10 key constraints, and 6 development phases derived from the
Status_20260814 spreadsheet's On-Going items
- CLAUDE.md: stack, smoke-test commands, conventions, and the hardware
footguns (per-unit BDF, VSPI vs VI2C timing, repeated START,
STORE_USER_ALL, ARB_LOST false positives)
- secret/: gitignored credential store with README + .example template,
so the DUT login stops living in 1_Blanton_Script_A.ttl
- .gitignore: secret/*, For_AI/, *.log, publish/, *.DSN
