PPP notify phase support, using compile-time PPP_NOTIFY_PHASE macro.
This can be used for example to set a LED pattern depending on the
current phase of the PPP session.
Callback example:
static void ppp_notify_phase_cb(ppp_pcb *pcb, u8_t phase, void *ctx) {
switch(phase) {
case PPP_PHASE_DEAD: /* Kept off */
case PPP_PHASE_MASTER:
/* LED Off */
break;
case PPP_PHASE_INITIALIZE: /* Session opened */
/* LED FastBlink */
break;
case PPP_PHASE_RUNNING: /* Session running */
/* LED On */
break;
default:
/* LED SlowBlink */
}
}
About multilink support.
Multilink uses Samba TDB (Trivial Database Library), which
we cannot port, for the above reason.
We have to choose between doing a memory-shared TDB-clone,
or dropping multilink support at all.
PPPoE works, PPPoS code is not ported at all.
I am using the RP-PPPoE server to do my tests using the following
configuration:
$ cat /etc/ppp/pppoe-server-options
debug
login
lcp-echo-interval 10
lcp-echo-failure 10
ms-dns 192.168.4.130
ms-dns 192.168.4.231
netmask 255.255.255.0
defaultroute
noipdefault
usepeerdns
$ cat /etc/ppp/allip
192.168.4.1-200
$ pppoe-server -C isp -L 192.168.4.254 -p /etc/ppp/allip -I tap0
Plus the usual auth-lines in /etc/ppp/pap-secrets and
/etc/ppp/chap-secrets .
And the unix port minimal "echo" project slightly modified to use
the "tcpip" API, so with threads, which I am going to commit with
NO_SYS as a -Dmacro.
It still use some of the linux'ism, such as syslog() and crypt(),
I do not want to drop the syslog() supports at the moment, this is
pretty useful to debug, and we may just convert the way the syslog() is
done to provide a trace feature to our PPP users, as a compile-time
option.
