At some point the "mount" parameter for "f_mount" was name "force". This
led to a bit of confusion that ended with the default mount function
never calling block device init.
This is fine, since the block device can be manually initialized, but
a better user experience is where the filesystem initializes the block
device for the user.
This is backwards compatible due to the repeatability of the block
device init functions.
The function _eth_arch_low_level_input() is meant to pass data into
LWIP and to prepare the ethernet buffers to receive more data.
If the LWIP heap is empty and the call to pbuf_alloc() in
_eth_arch_low_level_input returns null, the ethernet receive buffers
are not updated to receive data. Because of this the ethernet RX
interrupt will not fire. Since the RX interrupt is the only thing that
triggers a call to _eth_arch_low_level_input(), the receive buffers
will never get cleared, and the device stops receiving data.
To prevent this from happening, this patch ensures that the function
_eth_arch_low_level_input() clears the receive buffers even if a new
pbuf for the data couldn't be allocated.
This issue can be reproduce by running the test
"features-feature_lwip-tests-mbedmicro-net-udp_echo_parallel"
and on the same machine running the below python script to flood the
device with UDP broadcast packets:
MY_IP = #ADD your local IP here
from socket import *
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM)
s.bind((MY_IP, 1234))
s.setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
s.setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_BROADCAST, 1)
for _ in range(1000):
s.sendto("test data", ('255.255.255.255', 1234))
print("Message sent")
lwipopts_conf.h is used by target dependent Ethernet drivers for
configuring various parameters.
By default, Ethernet is enabled and in this case lwipopts_conf.h
will be included.
In case of PPP being enabled, it is desirable to not pull in any Ethernet
related code.
This creates a macro for the UUID length used by Greentea. This cuts
down on the use of "magic numbers" in test cases that use
the GREENTEA_SETUP_UUID function.
This is a workaround for IAR's lack of flexibility with memory regions.
Otherwise these tests would use very little heap and be mostly global
allocations.
