In general, netif_default may be NULL, and various places in the code
already check for this case before attempting to dereference the
netif_default pointer. Some places do not perform this check though,
and may cause null pointer dereferences if netif_default is not set.
This patch adds NULL checks to those places as well.
The mld_group structure no longer has a 'netif' field, as such
structures are now linked from the corresponding netif structure.
For conditional checksumming, use the calling function's netif
reference instead.
Let lwip use functions/macros prefixed by lwip_ internally to avoid naming clashes with external #includes.
Remove over-complicated #define handling in def.h
Make functions easier to override in cc.h. The following is sufficient now (no more LWIP_PLATFORM_BYTESWAP):
#define lwip_htons(x) <your_htons>
#define lwip_htonl(x) <your_htonl>
delay_time and stale_time are ticks now.
reachable_time and invalidation_timer are untouched since they may originate from telegram values -> not converting them to ticks avoids an integer division
Reasoning:
- Makes code in single-netif case perform better and smaller
- IGMP / MLD6 code is a little bit easier to read and understand
- Easier to get multicast groups per netif when implementing drivers
Downside: In multi-netif mode, there are two more pointers on each netif, even if IGMP/MLD6 is not used on it. But these systems should not be so memory-constrained that this will matter.
When leaving a multicast group, remove the group from the list
before invoking the MAC filter callback. This avoids the need
for the callee to skip over the group that is about to be deleted.
In the BSD socket API world, IP_HDRINCL is a socket option for "raw"
sockets that indicates whether sent packets already include an IP
header. Within lwIP, "IP_HDRINCL" is redefined as a special value
that indicates to lwIP-internal functions that an IP header is already
included. While somewhat related, the two meanings are different and,
on platforms that define the IP_HDRINCL socket option, this results in
a conflict. This patch renames the lwIP one to "LWIP_IP_HDRINCL",
thus resolving the conflict.
