Previously, ethip6 and lowpan6 each had their own copy of code that
used internal nd6 data structures to decide whether to send a packet
on the local link right away, or queue it while nd6 performed local
address resolution. This patch moves that code into nd6, thereby
eliminating all remaining cases of external access to internal nd6
data structures, as well as the need to expose two specific nd6
functions.
As a side effect, the patch effectively fixes two bugs in the lowpan6
code that were already fixed in the ethip6 code.
This patch rearranges the code division between nd6.c and ip6.c such
that the latter does not need to access ND6-internal data structures
(specifically, "default_router_list") directly anymore.
The new function, while currently not used internally, allows external
code to clear the ND destination cache in the case that it may have
become inconsistent with the current situation, for example as the
result of a change of locally assigned addresses, or a change in
routing tables implemented through the LWIP_HOOK_ND6_GET_GW hook.
bind() may change IP type when previous type is IPADDR_TYPE_ANY
connect() IP type must exactly match bind IP type
Use correct IPADDRx_ANY type when calling ip_route()
IPv6 netconns are created as IPADDR_TYPE_ANY raw/udp/tcp PCBs internally
bind, connect and sendto now accept IPv6 mapped IPv4 addresses or IPv4 addresses as argument
getaddr and receive functions now return IPv6 mapped IPv4 addresses instead of IPv4 addresses
This behavior is close to BSD socket API
This commit cleans up a duplicate #if check for LWIP_WND_SCALE in init.c
which was already under #if LWIP_WND_SCALE
This commit also improves documentation for TCP_WND in the window scaling
case to communicate TCP_WND is always the calculated (scaled) window value,
not the value reported in the TCP header
Our developers were confused by having to set both the window and scaling
factor and only after studying the usage of TCP_WND throughout the code, was
it determined to be the calculated (scaled) window
Commit 7df5496e7b revealed a regression introduced in commit 5a71509353
which broke IPCP reset state.
ask_for_local was set to 0 if ouraddr initial value is 0, if
ask_for_local was false go->ouraddr was cleared in reset callback,
commit 5a71509353 breaks it by removing this clearing. This regression
was silent because the whole ppp pcb runtime data was cleared before
reconnecting until commit 7df5496e7b which removed this giant clearing.
Fix it by reintroducing ask_for_local boolean value, with proper initial
value following what unused function ip_check_options do.
