Code was written using MBED_CONF_DEFAULT_* but the mbed_lib.json file
that created these values is prefixed with "nsapi" and therefore
final macros are MBED_CONF_NSAPI_DEFAULT_*
Currently, if all TX descriptors are in use and IP stack calls K64F/K66F
ethernet driver link out, link out drops the packet. Added 10ms delay
to link out to wait for a descriptor to become available before dropping
the packet.
Changed K64F/K66F power up to return without waiting for link up i.e. for
the ethernet cable to be connected. This is needed for non-blocking use
of driver e.g. for using the driver from event queue.
Two cascading copy-paste errors stopped this working:
* PPPCellularInterface::get_gateway() called
nsapi_ppp_get_ip_address();
* nsapi_ppp_get_gateway() called the interface's get_netmask().
First bug has always been there - second one was introduced in 5.9.
AT_CellularNetwork currently lacks calls to get both netmask and gateway
- this patch would be needed for that when added.
When all TX descriptors were reserved in a row so that TX buffer
reclaim interrupt did not happen during reservation sequence, after
the interrupt occurred, TX buffer reclaim did no longer free buffers.
This happened because when all descriptors were in use, last free
index pointed to consumed index.
TX pointer array was using RX ring length in its declaration.
Wasted memory if RX ring > TX ring, as is the default, but would
be broken if RX ring < TX ring.
16 RX buffers and 8 TX buffers is probably excessive. Nanostack
version of driver successfully used 4+4, and data pump should be
broadly equivalent.
This means that switching K64F devices from Nanostack to EMAC increases
base heap usage by 18K - observed in Nanostack border router builds.
Add a config option to make it possible to lower the number of buffers.
Defer consideration of lowering the default to later.
DNS resolver now counts how many sendto operations are successful
during one DNS server attempt cycle (attempting to contact DNS
servers from 0 to last index, including stack specific ones). If all
socket sendto operations fail, DNS resolution is aborted.
If one or more are successful, DNS resolution is continued until
total network attempts count is reached or all sendto operations
fails during a cycle.
- Set network stack to store event queue so that mbed::mbed_event_queue() call
is not needed every time call_in() is called
- Added dns state variables and enum (states are: created, initiated and cancelled)
- Corrected DNS response handling so that if DNS server returns that host name is
unknown the DNS query is not tried again
- Reorder mutexes in nsapi_dns_query_multiple_async()
- Created nsapi_dns_query_async_initiate_next() function to initiate the next
DNS query from the queue after delete of previous query
- Added dsn_timer_running variable to supervise DNS timer start/stop
- Changed cancel function to only mark query as deleted and moved deletion
to timer function. This allows to run socket close on DNS thread
- Added new nsapi error NSAPI_ERROR_TIMEOUT for DNS (and other) timeouts
Subtract 4 from the received packet length - the buffer contains the
CRC, which we shouldn't pass up.
Ensure we allocate receive buffers of a size corresponding to the
rounded-up size we tell the hardware - the hardware was overrunning the
allocation by a couple of bytes.
- Changed mutexes to platform mutexes
- Removed not needed null check from delete
- Changed nsapi_dns_call_in_set() to use call_in_callback_cb_t and
added prototype to header
- Serialized the sending of multiple async DNS queries since limits on event
message box sizes
- Added timer function that supervises the total time used to make DNS query
and triggers socket timeouts
- Changed nsapi_error_t to new nsapi_value_or_error_t on interface headers
- Corrected wording of gethostbyname_async return values
- Clarified .json options
- Added a new data type for socket callback that can be used from interrupts
- Corrected variable limits to use INT32_MAX etc. defines
- Changed mallocs to new
- Optimized variable sizes on DNS_QUERY definition
- Changed call_in/call methods of the stack to callback provided by the stack
- Specified what are limitations for operations that are made in callback
- Added pure virtual class DNS that defines DNS operations
- Added cancel operation and unique ID to DNS request used in cancel
- Added DNS configuration options to netsocket/mbed_lib.json for retries,
response wait time and cache size
- Changed host name to use dynamic memory in DNS query list and cache,
set maximum length for the name to 255 bytes.
- Added mutex to asynchronous DNS
- Reworked retries: there is now total retry count and a server specific count
- Ignores invalid incoming UDP socket messages (DNS header is not valid), and retries DNS query
- Reworked DNS module asynchronous operation functions
- Corrected other review issues (nothrow new, missing free, missing mutex unlock etc.)
- Added non-blocking DNS interface to network interface and
network stack.
- Added caching of DNS replies.
- Added a network stack function to get DNS addresses from stack.
- Added call and call_in hooks to onboard network stack to
allow calling functions from onboard stack context.
- Added support to call and call_in functions to LWIP and
Nanostack.
- Disabled LWIP DNS translator with the exception of DNS
address storage used in DNS address get.
Implementation of unified EMAC driver for Renesas mbed boards
Based on the driver so far, Renesas implemented the emac driver for GR-PEACH and VK-RZ/A1H.
The mainly changes is below.
- Add the connection part with LWIP according to the unified emac specification.
- Add three new multicast functions(add, remove, set_all).
The Greentea test netsocket and emac test passed.
Just checking "does the chip have an EMAC" doesn't work - there are
targets using those chips which do not have an Ethernet connector and
don't provide the necessary surrounding infrastructure (eg DISCO_F429ZI,
not providing the board emac config call, and HEXIWEAR not providing PHY
info).
Make the targets that actually do want EMAC define their own local
Freescale_EMAC and STM_EMAC labels, and move the drivers into
the corresponding TARGET_ directories, removing the #ifdefs.
Checking DEVICE_EMAC is problematic - particularly for the Odin W2 where
apps have been shutting this off to disable the Wi-fi interface.
Make drivers check a locally-relevant flag instead, pending new
thoughts on how to achieve application/test-relevant flagging for
XXX:get_default_instance() being provided by a system.
However that is achieved, drivers do require a flag set purely by the
target - they mustn't be tripped up by an add-on module providing itself
as the system's default EMAC.
Make Nanostack an OnboardNetworkInterface, implementing
add_ethernet_interface so it can use EMAC drivers.
Can now be used via EthernetInterface, and be the system's default
network stack.
Legacy support for NanostackEthernetInterface retained. Some
restructuring of mesh interface code to fit into the
OnboardNetworkStack:::Interface system.
