     18 
     19   2011-03-27: Simon Goldschmidt
     20   * tcp_impl.h, tcp_in.c, tcp_out.c: Removed 'dataptr' from 'struct tcp_seg' and
     21     calculate it in tcp_zero_window_probe (the only place where it was used).
     22 
     23   2010-11-21: Simon Goldschmidt
     24   * dhcp.c/.h: Added a function to deallocate the struct dhcp from a netif
     25     (fixes bug #31525).
     26 
     27   2010-07-12: Simon Goldschmidt (patch by Stephane Lesage)
     28   * ip.c, udp.c/.h, pbuf.h, sockets.c: task #10495: Added support for
     29     IP_MULTICAST_LOOP at socket- and raw-API level.
     30 
     31   2010-06-16: Simon Goldschmidt
     32   * ip.c: Added an optional define (LWIP_IP_ACCEPT_UDP_PORT) that can allow
     33     link-layer-addressed UDP traffic to be received while a netif is down (just
     34     like DHCP during configuration)
     35 
     36   2010-05-22: Simon Goldschmidt
     37   * many many files: bug #27352: removed packing from ip_addr_t, the packed
     38     version is now only used in protocol headers. Added global storage for
     39     current src/dest IP address while in input functions.
     40 
     41   2010-05-16: Simon Goldschmidt
     42   * def.h: task #10391: Add preprocessor-macros for compile-time htonl
     43     calculation (and use them throughout the stack where applicable)
     44 
     45   2010-05-16: Simon Goldschmidt
     46   * opt.h, memp_std.h, memp.c, ppp_oe.h/.c: PPPoE now uses its own MEMP pool
     47     instead of the heap (moved struct pppoe_softc from ppp_oe.c to ppp_oe.h)
     48 
     49   2010-05-16: Simon Goldschmidt
     50   * opt.h, memp_std.h, dns.h/.c: DNS_LOCAL_HOSTLIST_IS_DYNAMIC uses its own
     51     MEMP pool instead of the heap
     52 
     53   2010-05-13: Simon Goldschmidt
     54   * tcp.c, udp.c: task #6995: Implement SO_REUSEADDR (correctly), added
     55     new option SO_REUSE_RXTOALL to pass received UDP broadcast/multicast
     56     packets to more than one pcb.
     57 
     58   2010-05-02: Simon Goldschmidt
     59   * netbuf.h/.c, sockets.c, api_msg.c: use checksum-on-copy for sending
     60     UDP data for LWIP_NETIF_TX_SINGLE_PBUF==1
     61 
     62   2010-04-30: Simon Goldschmidt
     63   * udp.h/.c, pbuf.h/.c: task #6849: added udp_send(_to/_if) functions that
     64     take a precalculated checksum, added pbuf_fill_chksum() to copy data
     65     into a pbuf and at the same time calculating the checksum for that data
     66 
     67   2010-04-29: Simon Goldschmidt
     68   * ip_addr.h, etharp.h/.c, autoip.c: Create overridable macros for copying
     69     2-byte-aligned IP addresses and MAC addresses
     70 
     71   2010-04-28: Patch by Bill Auerbach
     72   * ip.c: Inline generating IP checksum to save a function call
     73 
     74   2010-04-14: Simon Goldschmidt
     75   * tcpip.h/.c, timers.c: Added an overridable define to get informed when the
     76     tcpip_thread processes messages or timeouts to implement a watchdog.
     77 
     78   2010-03-28: Simon Goldschmidt
     79   * ip_frag.c: create a new (contiguous) PBUF_RAM for every outgoing
     80     fragment if LWIP_NETIF_TX_SINGLE_PBUF==1
     81 
     82   2010-03-27: Simon Goldschmidt
     83   * etharp.c: Speedup TX by moving code from find_entry to etharp_output/
     84     etharp_query to prevent unnecessary function calls (inspired by
     85     patch #7135).
     86 
     87   2010-03-20: Simon Goldschmidt
     88   * opt.h, tcpip.c/.h: Added an option to disable tcpip_(un)timeout code
     89     since the linker cannot do this automatically to save space.
     90 
     91   2010-03-20: Simon Goldschmidt
     92   * opt.h, etharp.c/.h: Added support for static ARP table entries
     93 
     94   2010-03-14: Simon Goldschmidt
     95   * tcp_impl.h, tcp_out.c, inet_chksum.h/.c: task #6849: Calculate checksum
     96     when creating TCP segments, not when (re-)transmitting them.
     97 
     98   2010-03-07: Simon Goldschmidt
     99   * sockets.c: bug #28775 (select/event_callback: only check select_cb_list
    100     on change) plus use SYS_LIGHTWEIGHT_PROT to protect the select code.
    101     This should speed up receiving data on sockets as the select code in
    102     event_callback is only executed when select is waiting.
    103 
    104   2010-03-06: Simon Goldschmidt
    105   * tcp_out.c: task #7013 (Create option to have all packets delivered to
    106     netif->output in one piece): Always copy to try to create single pbufs
    107     in tcp_write.
    108 
    109   2010-03-06: Simon Goldschmidt
    110   * api.h, api_lib.c, sockets.c: task #10167 (sockets: speed up TCP recv
    111     by not allocating a netbuf): added function netconn_recv_tcp_pbuf()
    112     for tcp netconns to receive pbufs, not netbufs; use that function
    113     for tcp sockets.
    114 
    115   2010-03-05: Jakob Ole Stoklundsen / Simon Goldschmidt
    116   * opt.h, tcp.h, tcp_impl.h, tcp.c, tcp_in.c, tcp_out.c: task #7040:
    117     Work on tcp_enqueue: Don't waste memory when chaining segments,
    118     added option TCP_OVERSIZE to prevent creating many small pbufs when
    119     calling tcp_write with many small blocks of data. Instead, pbufs are
    120     allocated larger than needed and the space is used for later calls to
    121     tcp_write.
    122 
    123   2010-02-21: Simon Goldschmidt
    124   * stats.c/.h: Added const char* name to mem- and memp-stats for easier
    125     debugging.
    126 
    127   2010-02-21: Simon Goldschmidt
    128   * tcp.h (and usages), added tcp_impl.h: Splitted API and internal
    129     implementation of tcp to make API usage cleare to application programmers
    130 
    131   2010-02-14: Simon Goldschmidt/Stephane Lesage
    132   * ip_addr.h: Improved some defines working on ip addresses, added faster
    133     macro to copy addresses that cannot be NULL
    134 
    135   2010-02-13: Simon Goldschmidt
    136   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c: task #7865 (implement non-
    137     blocking send operation)
    138 
    139   2010-02-12: Simon Goldschmidt
    140   * sockets.c/.h: Added a minimal version of posix fctl() to have a
    141     standardised way to set O_NONBLOCK for nonblocking sockets.
    142 
    143   2010-02-12: Simon Goldschmidt
    144   * dhcp.c/.h, autoip.c/.h: task #10139 (Prefer statically allocated
    145     memory): added autoip_set_struct() and dhcp_set_struct() to let autoip
    146     and dhcp work with user-allocated structs instead of callin mem_malloc
    147 
    148   2010-02-12: Simon Goldschmidt/Jeff Barber
    149   * tcp.c/h: patch #6865 (SO_REUSEADDR for TCP): if pcb.so_options has
    150     SOF_REUSEADDR set, allow binding to endpoint in TIME_WAIT
    151 
    152   2010-02-12: Simon Goldschmidt
    153   * sys layer: task #10139 (Prefer statically allocated memory): converted
    154     mbox and semaphore functions to take pointers to sys_mbox_t/sys_sem_t;
    155     converted sys_mbox_new/sys_sem_new to take pointers and return err_t;
    156     task #7212: Add Mutex concept in sys_arch (define LWIP_COMPAT_MUTEX
    157     to let sys.h use binary semaphores instead of mutexes - as before)
    158 
    159   2010-02-09: Simon Goldschmidt (Simon Kallweit)
    160   * timers.c/.h: Added function sys_restart_timeouts() from patch #7085
    161     (Restart system timeout handling)
    162 
    163   2010-02-09: Simon Goldschmidt
    164   * netif.c/.h, removed loopif.c/.h: task #10153 (Integrate loopif into
    165     netif.c) - loopif does not have to be created by the port any more,
    166     just define LWIP_HAVE_LOOPIF to 1.
    167 
    168   2010-02-08: Simon Goldschmidt
    169   * inet.h, ip_addr.c/.h: Added reentrant versions of inet_ntoa/ipaddr_ntoa
    170     inet_ntoa_r/ipaddr_ntoa_r
    171 
    172   2010-02-08: Simon Goldschmidt
    173   * netif.h: Added netif_s/get_igmp_mac_filter() macros
    174 
    175   2010-02-05: Simon Goldschmidt
    176   * netif.h: Added function-like macros to get/set the hostname on a netif
    177 
    178   2010-02-04: Simon Goldschmidt
    179   * nearly every file: Replaced struct ip_addr by typedef ip_addr_t to
    180     make changing the actual implementation behind the typedef easier.
    181 
    182   2010-02-01: Simon Goldschmidt
    183   * opt.h, memp_std.h, dns.h, netdb.c, memp.c: Let netdb use a memp pool
    184     for allocating memory when getaddrinfo() is called.
    185 
    186   2010-01-31: Simon Goldschmidt
    187   * dhcp.h, dhcp.c: Reworked the code that parses DHCP options: parse
    188     them once instead of parsing for every option. This also removes
    189     the need for mem_malloc from dhcp_recv and makes it possible to
    190     correctly retrieve the BOOTP file.
    191 
    192   2010-01-30: simon Goldschmidt
    193   * sockets.c: Use SYS_LIGHTWEIGHT_PROT instead of a semaphore to protect
    194     the sockets array.
    195

    197   * api.h, api_msg.c, sockets.c: Added except set support in select
    198     (patch #6860)
    199 
    200   2010-01-29: Simon Goldschmidt (patch by Laura Garrett)
    201   * api.h, sockets.h, err.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c, err.c:
    202     Add non-blocking support for connect (partly from patch #6860),
    203     plus many cleanups in socket & netconn API.
    204 
    205   2010-01-27: Simon Goldschmidt
    206   * opt.h, tcp.h, init.c, api_msg.c: Added TCP_SNDQUEUELOWAT corresponding
    207     to TCP_SNDLOWAT and added tcp_sndqueuelen() - this fixes bug #28605
    208 
    209   2010-01-26: Simon Goldschmidt
    210   * snmp: Use memp pools for snmp instead of the heap; added 4 new pools.
    211 
    212   2010-01-14: Simon Goldschmidt
    213   * ppp.c/.h: Fixed bug #27856: PPP: Set netif link- and status-callback
    214     by adding ppp_set_netif_statuscallback()/ppp_set_netif_linkcallback()
    215 
    216   2010-01-13: Simon Goldschmidt
    217   * mem.c: The heap now may be moved to user-defined memory by defining
    218     LWIP_RAM_HEAP_POINTER as a void pointer to that memory's address
    219     (patch #6966 and bug #26133)
    220 
    221   2010-01-10: Simon Goldschmidt (Bill Auerbach)
    222   * opt.h, memp.c: patch #6822 (Add option to place memory pools in
    223     separate arrays)
    224 
    225   2010-01-10: Simon Goldschmidt
    226   * init.c, igmp.c: patch #6463 (IGMP - Adding Random Delay): added define
    227     LWIP_RAND() for lwip-wide randomization (to be defined in cc.h)
    228 
    229   2009-12-31: Simon Goldschmidt
    230   * tcpip.c, init.c, memp.c, sys.c, memp_std.h, sys.h, tcpip.h
    231     added timers.c/.h: Separated timer implementation from semaphore/mbox
    232     implementation, moved timer implementation to timers.c/.h, timers are
    233     now only called from tcpip_thread or by explicitly checking them.
    234     (TASK#7235)
    235 
    236   2009-12-27: Simon Goldschmidt
    237   * opt.h, etharp.h/.c, init.c, tcpip.c: Added an additional option
    238     LWIP_ETHERNET to support ethernet without ARP (necessary for pure PPPoE)
    239 
    240 
    241   ++ Bugfixes:
    242 
    243   2011-04-20: Simon Goldschmidt

    245 
    246   2011-04-13: Simon Goldschmidt
    247   * tcp.c, udp.c: Fixed bug #33048 (Bad range for IP source port numbers) by
    248     using ports in the IANA private/dynamic range (49152 through 65535).
    249

    255     pcbs) by checking if the pcb was bound (local_port != 0).
    256 
    257   2011-03-27: Simon Goldschmidt
    258   * ppp.c: Fixed bug #32280 (ppp: a pbuf is freed twice)
    259 
    260   2011-03-27: Simon Goldschmidt
    261   * sockets.c: Fixed bug #32906: lwip_connect+lwip_send did not work for udp and

    263   
    264   2011-03-27: Simon Goldschmidt
    265   * tcp_out.c: Fixed bug #32820 (Outgoing TCP connections created before route

    267     route.
    268 
    269   2011-03-22: Simon Goldschmidt
    270   * ppp.c: Fixed bug #32648 (PPP code crashes when terminating a link) by only
    271     calling sio_read_abort() if the file descriptor is valid.
    272 
    273   2011-03-14: Simon Goldschmidt
    274   * err.h/.c, sockets.c, api_msg.c: fixed bug #31748 (Calling non-blocking connect
    275     more than once can render a socket useless) since it mainly involves changing
    276     "FATAL" classification of error codes: ERR_USE and ERR_ISCONN just aren't fatal.
    277 
    278   2011-03-13: Simon Goldschmidt
    279   * sockets.c: fixed bug #32769 (ESHUTDOWN is linux-specific) by fixing
    280     err_to_errno_table (ERR_CLSD: ENOTCONN instead of ESHUTDOWN), ERR_ISCONN:
    281     use EALRADY instead of -1
    282 
    283   2011-03-13: Simon Goldschmidt
    284   * api_lib.c: netconn_accept: return ERR_ABRT instead of ERR_CLSD if the
    285     connection has been aborted by err_tcp (since this is not a normal closing
    286     procedure).
    287 
    288   2011-03-13: Simon Goldschmidt
    289   * tcp.c: tcp_bind: return ERR_VAL instead of ERR_ISCONN when trying to bind
    290     with pcb->state != CLOSED
    291 
    292   2011-02-17: Simon Goldschmidt
    293   * rawapi.txt: Fixed bug #32561 tcp_poll argument definition out-of-order in
    294     documentation
    295 
    296   2011-02-17: Simon Goldschmidt
    297   * many files: Added missing U/UL modifiers to fix 16-bit-arch portability.
    298 
    299   2011-01-24: Simon Goldschmidt
    300   * sockets.c: Fixed bug #31741: lwip_select seems to have threading problems

    304 
    305   2010-11-23: Simon Goldschmidt
    306   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c: netconn.recv_avail is only used for
    307     LWIP_SO_RCVBUF and ioctl/FIONREAD.
    308 
    309   2010-11-23: Simon Goldschmidt
    310   * etharp.c: Fixed bug #31720: ARP-queueing: RFC 1122 recommends to queue at
    311     least 1 packet -> ARP_QUEUEING==0 now queues the most recent packet.
    312 
    313   2010-11-23: Simon Goldschmidt
    314   * tcp_in.c: Fixed bug #30577: tcp_input: don't discard ACK-only packets after

    320 
    321   2010-11-22: Simon Goldschmidt
    322   * etharp.c: Fixed bug #31722: IP packets sent with an AutoIP source addr
    323     must be sent link-local
    324 
    325   2010-11-22: Simon Goldschmidt
    326   * timers.c: patch #7329: tcp_timer_needed prototype was ifdef'ed out for

    328 
    329   2010-11-20: Simon Goldschmidt
    330   * sockets.c: Fixed bug #31170: lwip_setsockopt() does not set socket number
    331 
    332   2010-11-20: Simon Goldschmidt
    333   * sockets.h: Fixed bug #31304: Changed SHUT_RD, SHUT_WR and SHUT_RDWR to
    334     resemble other stacks.
    335 
    336   2010-11-20: Simon Goldschmidt
    337   * dns.c: Fixed bug #31535: TCP_SND_QUEUELEN must be at least 2 or else
    338     no-copy TCP writes will never succeed.
    339 
    340   2010-11-20: Simon Goldschmidt
    341   * dns.c: Fixed bug #31701: Error return value from dns_gethostbyname() does
    342     not match documentation: return ERR_ARG instead of ERR_VAL if not
    343     initialized or wrong argument.
    344 
    345   2010-10-20: Simon Goldschmidt

    357 
    358   2010-08-01: Simon Goldschmidt (patch by Greg Renda)
    359   * ppp.c: Applied patch #7264 (PPP protocols are rejected incorrectly on big
    360     endian architectures)

    369   
    370   2010-07-21: Simon Goldschmidt
    371   * ip.c: Fixed invalid fix for bug #30402 (CHECKSUM_GEN_IP_INLINE does not

    390 
    391   2010-06-24: Simon Goldschmidt
    392   * api(_lib).c/.h, api_msg.c/.h, sockets.c/.h: Fixed bug #10088: Correctly

    394 
    395   2010-06-21: Simon Goldschmidt
    396   * pbuf.c/.h, ip_frag.c/.h, opt.h, memp_std.h: Fixed bug #29361 (ip_frag has
    397     problems with zero-copy DMA MACs) by adding custom pbufs and implementing
    398     custom pbufs that reference other (original) pbufs. Additionally set
    399     IP_FRAG_USES_STATIC_BUF=0 as default to be on the safe side.
    400 
    401   2010-06-15: Simon Goldschmidt
    402   * dhcp.c: Fixed bug #29970: DHCP endian issue parsing option responses

    413 
    414   2010-05-16: Simon Goldschmidt
    415   * def.h/.c: changed the semantics of LWIP_PREFIX_BYTEORDER_FUNCS to prevent
    416     "symbol already defined" i.e. when linking to winsock
    417 
    418   2010-05-05: Simon Goldschmidt

    425 
    426   2010-03-28: Luca Ceresoli
    427   * ip_addr.c/.h: patch #7143: Add a few missing const qualifiers

    434 
    435   2010-03-26: Simon Goldschmidt
    436   * various files: Fixed compiling with different options disabled (TCP/UDP),
    437     triggered by bug #29345; don't allocate acceptmbox if LWIP_TCP is disabled
    438 
    439   2010-03-25: Simon Goldschmidt
    440   * sockets.c: Fixed bug #29332: lwip_select() processes readset incorrectly

    442   2010-03-25: Simon Goldschmidt
    443   * tcp_in.c, test_tcp_oos.c: Fixed bug #29080: Correctly handle remote side
    444     overrunning our rcv_wnd in ooseq case.
    445 
    446   2010-03-22: Simon Goldschmidt
    447   * tcp.c: tcp_listen() did not copy the pcb's prio.
    448 
    449   2010-03-19: Simon Goldschmidt
    450   * snmp_msg.c: Fixed bug #29256: SNMP Trap address was not correctly set
    451 
    452   2010-03-14: Simon Goldschmidt
    453   * opt.h, etharp.h: Fixed bug #29148 (Incorrect PBUF_POOL_BUFSIZE for ports
    454     where ETH_PAD_SIZE > 0) by moving definition of ETH_PAD_SIZE to opt.h
    455     and basing PBUF_LINK_HLEN on it.
    456 
    457   2010-03-08: Simon Goldschmidt
    458   * netif.c, ipv4/ip.c: task #10241 (AutoIP: don't break existing connections
    459     when assiging routable address): when checking incoming packets and
    460     aborting existing connection on address change, filter out link-local
    461     addresses.
    462 
    463   2010-03-06: Simon Goldschmidt
    464   * sockets.c: Fixed LWIP_NETIF_TX_SINGLE_PBUF for LWIP_TCPIP_CORE_LOCKING
    465 
    466   2010-03-06: Simon Goldschmidt

    468 
    469   2010-03-06: Simon Goldschmidt

    471     addresses to gw
    472 
    473   2010-03-05: Simon Goldschmidt
    474   * dhcp.c: Fixed bug #29072: Correctly set ciaddr based on message-type
    475     and state.
    476 
    477   2010-03-05: Simon Goldschmidt
    478   * api_msg.c: Correctly set TCP_WRITE_FLAG_MORE when netconn_write is split
    479     into multiple calls to tcp_write.    
    480 
    481   2010-02-21: Simon Goldschmidt
    482   * opt.h, mem.h, dns.c: task #10140: Remove DNS_USES_STATIC_BUF (keep
    483     the implementation of DNS_USES_STATIC_BUF==1)
    484 
    485   2010-02-20: Simon Goldschmidt
    486   * tcp.h, tcp.c, tcp_in.c, tcp_out.c: Task #10088: Correctly implement
    487     close() vs. shutdown(). Now the application does not get any more
    488     recv callbacks after calling tcp_close(). Added tcp_shutdown().
    489 
    490   2010-02-19: Simon Goldschmidt
    491   * mem.c/.h, pbuf.c: Renamed mem_realloc() to mem_trim() to prevent
    492     confusion with realloc()
    493 
    494   2010-02-15: Simon Goldschmidt/Stephane Lesage
    495   * netif.c/.h: Link status does not depend on LWIP_NETIF_LINK_CALLBACK
    496     (fixes bug #28899)
    497 
    498   2010-02-14: Simon Goldschmidt
    499   * netif.c: Fixed bug #28877 (Duplicate ARP gratuitous packet with
    500     LWIP_NETIF_LINK_CALLBACK set on) by only sending if both link- and
    501     admin-status of a netif are up
    502 
    503   2010-02-14: Simon Goldschmidt
    504   * opt.h: Disable ETHARP_TRUST_IP_MAC by default since it slows down packet
    505     reception and is not really necessary
    506 
    507   2010-02-14: Simon Goldschmidt
    508   * etharp.c/.h: Fixed ARP input processing: only add a new entry if a
    509     request was directed as us (RFC 826, Packet Reception), otherwise
    510     only update existing entries; internalized some functions
    511 
    512   2010-02-14: Simon Goldschmidt
    513   * netif.h, etharp.c, tcpip.c: Fixed bug #28183 (ARP and TCP/IP cannot be
    514     disabled on netif used for PPPoE) by adding a new netif flag
    515     (NETIF_FLAG_ETHERNET) that tells the stack the device is an ethernet
    516     device but prevents usage of ARP (so that ethernet_input can be used
    517     for PPPoE).
    518 
    519   2010-02-12: Simon Goldschmidt
    520   * netif.c: netif_set_link_up/down: only do something if the link state
    521     actually changes
    522 
    523   2010-02-12: Simon Goldschmidt/Stephane Lesage
    524   * api_msg.c: Fixed bug #28865 (Cannot close socket/netconn in non-blocking
    525     connect)
    526 
    527   2010-02-12: Simon Goldschmidt
    528   * mem.h: Fixed bug #28866 (mem_realloc function defined in mem.h)
    529 
    530   2010-02-09: Simon Goldschmidt
    531   * api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c, api.h, api_msg.h: Fixed bug #22110
    532    (recv() makes receive window update for data that wasn't received by
    533     application)
    534 
    535   2010-02-09: Simon Goldschmidt/Stephane Lesage
    536   * sockets.c: Fixed bug #28853 (lwip_recvfrom() returns 0 on receive time-out
    537     or any netconn_recv() error)
    538 
    539   2010-02-09: Simon Goldschmidt
    540   * ppp.c: task #10154 (PPP: Update snmp in/out counters for tx/rx packets)
    541 
    542   2010-02-09: Simon Goldschmidt
    543   * netif.c: For loopback packets, adjust the stats- and snmp-counters
    544     for the loopback netif.
    545 
    546   2010-02-08: Simon Goldschmidt
    547   * igmp.c/.h, ip.h: Moved most defines from igmp.h to igmp.c for clarity
    548     since they are not used anywhere else.
    549 
    550   2010-02-08: Simon Goldschmidt (Stphane Lesage)
    551   * igmp.c, igmp.h, stats.c, stats.h: Improved IGMP stats
    552     (patch from bug #28798)
    553 
    554   2010-02-08: Simon Goldschmidt (Stphane Lesage)
    555   * igmp.c: Fixed bug #28798 (Error in "Max Response Time" processing) and
    556     another bug when LWIP_RAND() returns zero.
    557 
    558   2010-02-04: Simon Goldschmidt
    559   * nearly every file: Use macros defined in ip_addr.h (some of them new)
    560     to work with IP addresses (preparation for bug #27352 - Change ip_addr
    561     from struct to typedef (u32_t) - and better code).
    562 
    563   2010-01-31: Simon Goldschmidt
    564   * netif.c: Don't call the link-callback from netif_set_up/down() since
    565     this invalidly retriggers DHCP.
    566 
    567   2010-01-29: Simon Goldschmidt
    568   * ip_addr.h, inet.h, def.h, inet.c, def.c, more: Cleanly separate the
    569     portability file inet.h and its contents from the stack: moved htonX-
    570     functions to def.h (and the new def.c - they are not ipv4 dependent),
    571     let inet.h depend on ip_addr.h and not the other way round.
    572     This fixes bug #28732.
    573 
    574   2010-01-28: Kieran Mansley
    575   * tcp.c: Ensure ssthresh >= 2*MSS
    576 
    577   2010-01-27: Simon Goldschmidt
    578   * tcp.h, tcp.c, tcp_in.c: Fixed bug #27871: Calling tcp_abort() in recv
    579     callback can lead to accessing unallocated memory. As a consequence,
    580     ERR_ABRT means the application has called tcp_abort()!
    581 
    582   2010-01-25: Simon Goldschmidt
    583   * snmp_structs.h, msg_in.c: Partly fixed bug #22070 (MIB_OBJECT_WRITE_ONLY
    584     not implemented in SNMP): write-only or not-accessible are still
    585     returned by getnext (though not by get)
    586 
    587   2010-01-24: Simon Goldschmidt
    588   * snmp: Renamed the private mib node from 'private' to 'mib_private' to
    589     not use reserved C/C++ keywords
    590 
    591   2010-01-23: Simon Goldschmidt
    592   * sockets.c: Fixed bug #28716: select() returns 0 after waiting for less
    593     than 1 ms
    594 
    595   2010-01-21: Simon Goldschmidt
    596   * tcp.c, api_msg.c: Fixed bug #28651 (tcp_connect: no callbacks called
    597     if tcp_enqueue fails) both in raw- and netconn-API
    598 
    599   2010-01-19: Simon Goldschmidt
    600   * api_msg.c: Fixed bug #27316: netconn: Possible deadlock in err_tcp
    601 
    602   2010-01-18: Iordan Neshev/Simon Goldschmidt
    603   * src/netif/ppp: reorganised PPP sourcecode to 2.3.11 including some
    604     bugfix backports from 2.4.x.
    605 
    606   2010-01-18: Simon Goldschmidt
    607   * mem.c: Fixed bug #28679: mem_realloc calculates mem_stats wrong
    608 
    609   2010-01-17: Simon Goldschmidt
    610   * api_lib.c, api_msg.c, (api_msg.h, api.h, sockets.c, tcpip.c):
    611     task #10102: "netconn: clean up conn->err threading issues" by adding
    612     error return value to struct api_msg_msg
    613 
    614   2010-01-17: Simon Goldschmidt
    615   * api.h, api_lib.c, sockets.c: Changed netconn_recv() and netconn_accept()
    616     to return err_t (bugs #27709 and #28087)
    617 
    618   2010-01-14: Simon Goldschmidt
    619   * ...: Use typedef for function prototypes throughout the stack.
    620 
    621   2010-01-13: Simon Goldschmidt
    622   * api_msg.h/.c, api_lib.c: Fixed bug #26672 (close connection when receive
    623     window = 0) by correctly draining recvmbox/acceptmbox
    624 
    625   2010-01-11: Simon Goldschmidt
    626   * pap.c: Fixed bug #13315 (PPP PAP authentication can result in
    627     erroneous callbacks) by copying the code from recent pppd
    628 
    629   2010-01-10: Simon Goldschmidt
    630   * raw.c: Fixed bug #28506 (raw_bind should filter received packets)
    631 
    632   2010-01-10: Simon Goldschmidt
    633   * tcp.h/.c: bug #28127 (remove call to tcp_output() from tcp_ack(_now)())
    634

    637 
    638   2010-01-08: Simon Goldschmidt
    639   * dns.c: Copy hostname for DNS_LOCAL_HOSTLIST_IS_DYNAMIC==1 since string
    640     passed to dns_local_addhost() might be volatile
    641 
    642   2010-01-07: Simon Goldschmidt
    643   * timers.c, tcp.h: Call tcp_timer_needed() with NO_SYS==1, too

    647 
    648   2009-12-31: Simon Goldschmidt
    649   * many ppp files: Reorganised PPP source code from ucip structure to pppd
    650     structure to easily compare our code against the pppd code (around v2.3.1)
    651 
    652   2009-12-27: Simon Goldschmidt
    653   * tcp_in.c: Another fix for bug #28241 (ooseq processing) and adapted

    768     testing for valid reply
    769 
    770   2009-10-19: Simon Goldschmidt
    771   * dhcp.c: Removed most calls to udp_connect since they aren't necessary

    835 
    836   2009-05-09 Simon Goldschmidt
    837   * icmp.h, icmp.c: Shrinked ICMP code, added option to NOT check icoming
    838     ECHO pbuf for size (just use it): LWIP_ICMP_ECHO_CHECK_INPUT_PBUF_LEN

    847   2009-04-25 Simon Goldschmidt
    848   * mem.c, opt.h: Added option MEM_USE_POOLS_TRY_BIGGER_POOL to try the next

    852   * dns.c, init.c, dns.h, opt.h: task #7507, patch #6786: DNS supports static
    853     hosts table. New configuration options DNS_LOCAL_HOSTLIST and

    855     as an external function for lookup.
    856 
    857   2009-04-15 Simon Goldschmidt
    858   * dhcp.c: patch #6763: Global DHCP XID can be redefined to something more unique

    865   2009-02-18 Simon Goldschmidt
    866   * cc.h: Added printf formatter for size_t: SZT_F

    876   * opt.h, memp.h/.c: added MEMP_MEM_MALLOC to use mem_malloc/mem_free instead
    877     of the pool allocator (can save code size with MEM_LIBC_MALLOC if libc-malloc
    878     is otherwise used)
    879 
    880   2009-01-28 Jonathan Larmour (suggested by Bill Bauerbach)
    881   * ipv4/inet_chksum.c, ipv4/lwip/inet_chksum.h: inet_chksum_pseudo_partial()
    882   is only used by UDPLITE at present, so conditionalise it.
    883 
    884   2008-12-03 Simon Goldschmidt (base on patch from Luca Ceresoli)
    885   * autoip.c: checked in (slightly modified) patch #6683: Customizable AUTOIP
    886     "seed" address. This should reduce AUTOIP conflicts if
    887     LWIP_AUTOIP_CREATE_SEED_ADDR is overridden.
    888 
    889   2008-10-02 Jonathan Larmour and Rishi Khan

    892 
    893   2008-06-30 Simon Goldschmidt
    894   * mem.c, opt.h, stats.h: fixed bug #21433: Calling mem_free/pbuf_free from
    895     interrupt context isn't safe: LWIP_ALLOW_MEM_FREE_FROM_OTHER_CONTEXT allows
    896     mem_free to run between mem_malloc iterations. Added illegal counter for
    897     mem stats.
    898 
    899   2008-06-27 Simon Goldschmidt
    900   * stats.h/.c, some other files: patch #6483: stats module improvement:
    901     Added defines to display each module's statistic individually, added stats
    902     defines for MEM, MEMP and SYS modules, removed (unused) rexmit counter.

    909   * slipif.c: patch #6480: Added a configuration option for slipif for symmetry
    910     to loopif
    911 
    912   2008-06-17 Simon Goldschmidt (patch by Luca Ceresoli)
    913   * netif.c, loopif.c, ip.c, netif.h, loopif.h, opt.h: Checked in slightly
    914     modified version of patch # 6370: Moved loopif code to netif.c so that
    915     loopback traffic is supported on all netifs (all local IPs).
    916     Added option to limit loopback packets for each netifs.

    955   * ip.h, ip.c, igmp.c: bug #26487: Added ip_output_if_opt that can add IP options
    956     to the IP header (used by igmp_ip_output_if)
    957 
    958   2009-05-06 Simon Goldschmidt
    959   * inet_chksum.c: On little endian architectures, use LWIP_PLATFORM_HTONS (if

    991     SO(F)_BROADCAST filter for all API layers. Avoid the unindented reception
    992     of broadcast packets even when this option wasn't set. Port maintainers
    993     which want to enable this filter have to set IP_SOF_BROADCAST=1 in opt.h.
    994     If you want this option also filter broadcast on recv operations, you also
    995     have to set IP_SOF_BROADCAST_RECV=1 in opt.h.

   1183 
   1184   2008-03-27 Simon Goldschmidt

   1197   ++ New features:
   1198 
   1199   2008-03-10 Jonathan Larmour
   1200   * inet_chksum.c: Allow choice of one of the sample algorithms to be
   1201     made from lwipopts.h. Fix comment on how to override LWIP_CHKSUM.
   1202 
   1203   2008-01-22 Frdric Bernon
   1204   * tcp.c, tcp_in.c, tcp.h, opt.h: Rename LWIP_CALCULATE_EFF_SEND_MSS in 
   1205     TCP_CALCULATE_EFF_SEND_MSS to have coherent TCP options names.
   1206 
   1207   2008-01-14 Frdric Bernon
   1208   * rawapi.txt, api_msg.c, tcp.c, tcp_in.c, tcp.h: changes for task #7675 "Enable
   1209     to refuse data on a TCP_EVENT_RECV call". Important, behavior changes for the
   1210     tcp_recv callback (see rawapi.txt).
   1211 
   1212   2008-01-14 Frdric Bernon, Marc Chaland
   1213   * ip.c: Integrate patch #6369" ip_input : checking before realloc".
   1214   
   1215   2008-01-12 Frdric Bernon
   1216   * tcpip.h, tcpip.c, api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c: replace the field
   1217     netconn::sem per netconn::op_completed like suggested for the task #7490
   1218     "Add return value to sys_mbox_post".
   1219 
   1220   2008-01-12 Frdric Bernon
   1221   * api_msg.c, opt.h: replace DEFAULT_RECVMBOX_SIZE per DEFAULT_TCP_RECVMBOX_SIZE,
   1222     DEFAULT_UDP_RECVMBOX_SIZE and DEFAULT_RAW_RECVMBOX_SIZE (to optimize queues
   1223     sizes), like suggested for the task #7490 "Add return value to sys_mbox_post".
   1224 
   1225   2008-01-10 Frdric Bernon
   1226   * tcpip.h, tcpip.c: add tcpip_callback_with_block function for the task #7490
   1227     "Add return value to sys_mbox_post". tcpip_callback is always defined as
   1228     "blocking" ("block" parameter = 1).
   1229 
   1230   2008-01-10 Frdric Bernon
   1231   * tcpip.h, tcpip.c, api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c: replace the field
   1232     netconn::mbox (sys_mbox_t) per netconn::sem (sys_sem_t) for the task #7490
   1233     "Add return value to sys_mbox_post".
   1234 
   1235   2008-01-05 Frdric Bernon
   1236   * sys_arch.txt, api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.h, api_msg.c, tcpip.c, sys.h, opt.h:
   1237     Introduce changes for task #7490 "Add return value to sys_mbox_post" with some
   1238     modifications in the sys_mbox api: sys_mbox_new take a "size" parameters which
   1239     indicate the number of pointers query by the mailbox. There is three defines
   1240     in opt.h to indicate sizes for tcpip::mbox, netconn::recvmbox, and for the 
   1241     netconn::acceptmbox. Port maintainers, you can decide to just add this new 
   1242     parameter in your implementation, but to ignore it to keep the previous behavior.
   1243     The new sys_mbox_trypost function return a value to know if the mailbox is
   1244     full or if the message is posted. Take a look to sys_arch.txt for more details.
   1245     This new function is used in tcpip_input (so, can be called in an interrupt
   1246     context since the function is not blocking), and in recv_udp and recv_raw.
   1247 
   1248   2008-01-04 Frdric Bernon, Simon Goldschmidt, Jonathan Larmour
   1249   * rawapi.txt, api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.h, api_msg.c, sockets.c, tcp.h, tcp.c,
   1250     tcp_in.c, init.c, opt.h: rename backlog options with TCP_ prefix, limit the
   1251     "backlog" parameter in an u8_t, 0 is interpreted as "smallest queue", add
   1252     documentation in the rawapi.txt file.
   1253 
   1254   2007-12-31 Kieran Mansley (based on patch from Per-Henrik Lundbolm)
   1255   * tcp.c, tcp_in.c, tcp_out.c, tcp.h: Add TCP persist timer
   1256 
   1257   2007-12-31 Frdric Bernon, Luca Ceresoli
   1258   * autoip.c, etharp.c: ip_addr.h: Integrate patch #6348: "Broadcast ARP packets
   1259     in autoip". The change in etharp_raw could be removed, since all calls to
   1260     etharp_raw use ethbroadcast for the "ethdst_addr" parameter. But it could be
   1261     wrong in the future.
   1262 
   1263   2007-12-30 Frdric Bernon, Tom Evans
   1264   * ip.c: Fix bug #21846 "LwIP doesn't appear to perform any IP Source Address
   1265     Filtering" reported by Tom Evans.
   1266 
   1267   2007-12-21 Frdric Bernon, Simon Goldschmidt, Jonathan Larmour
   1268   * tcp.h, opt.h, api.h, api_msg.h, tcp.c, tcp_in.c, api_lib.c, api_msg.c,
   1269     sockets.c, init.c: task #7252: Implement TCP listen backlog: Warning: raw API
   1270     applications have to call 'tcp_accepted(pcb)' in their accept callback to
   1271     keep accepting new connections.
   1272 
   1273   2007-12-13 Frdric Bernon
   1274   * api_msg.c, err.h, err.c, sockets.c, dns.c, dns.h: replace "enum dns_result"
   1275     by err_t type. Add a new err_t code "ERR_INPROGRESS".
   1276 
   1277   2007-12-12 Frdric Bernon
   1278   * dns.h, dns.c, opt.h: move DNS options to the "right" place. Most visibles
   1279     are the one which have ram usage.
   1280 
   1281   2007-12-05 Frdric Bernon
   1282   * netdb.c: add a LWIP_DNS_API_HOSTENT_STORAGE option to decide to use a static
   1283     set of variables (=0) or a local one (=1). In this last case, your port should
   1284     provide a function "struct hostent* sys_thread_hostent( struct hostent* h)"
   1285     which have to do a copy of "h" and return a pointer ont the "per-thread" copy.
   1286 
   1287   2007-12-03 Simon Goldschmidt
   1288   * ip.c: ip_input: check if a packet is for inp first before checking all other
   1289     netifs on netif_list (speeds up packet receiving in most cases)
   1290 
   1291   2007-11-30 Simon Goldschmidt
   1292   * udp.c, raw.c: task #7497: Sort lists (pcb, netif, ...) for faster access
   1293     UDP: move a (connected) pcb selected for input to the front of the list of
   1294     pcbs so that it is found faster next time. Same for RAW pcbs that have eaten
   1295     a packet.
   1296 
   1297   2007-11-28 Simon Goldschmidt
   1298   * etharp.c, stats.c, stats.h, opt.h: Introduced ETHARP_STATS
   1299 
   1300   2007-11-25 Simon Goldschmidt
   1301   * dhcp.c: dhcp_unfold_reply() uses pbuf_copy_partial instead of its own copy
   1302     algorithm.
   1303 
   1304   2007-11-24 Simon Goldschmidt
   1305   * netdb.h, netdb.c, sockets.h/.c: Moved lwip_gethostbyname from sockets.c
   1306     to the new file netdb.c; included lwip_getaddrinfo.
   1307 
   1308   2007-11-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   1309   * tcp.h, opt.h, tcp.c, tcp_in.c: implemented calculating the effective send-mss
   1310     based on the MTU of the netif used to send. Enabled by default. Disable by
   1311     setting LWIP_CALCULATE_EFF_SEND_MSS to 0. This fixes bug #21492.
   1312 
   1313   2007-11-19 Frdric Bernon
   1314   * api_msg.c, dns.h, dns.c: Implement DNS_DOES_NAME_CHECK option (check if name
   1315     received match the name query), implement DNS_USES_STATIC_BUF (the place where
   1316     copy dns payload to parse the response), return an error if there is no place
   1317     for a new query, and fix some minor problems.
   1318 
   1319   2007-11-16 Simon Goldschmidt
   1320   * new files: ipv4/inet.c, ipv4/inet_chksum.c, ipv6/inet6.c
   1321     removed files: core/inet.c, core/inet6.c
   1322     Moved inet files into ipv4/ipv6 directory; splitted inet.c/inet.h into
   1323     inet and chksum part; changed includes in all lwIP files as appropriate
   1324 
   1325   2007-11-16 Simon Goldschmidt
   1326   * api.h, api_msg.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, socket.h, socket.c: Added sequential
   1327     dns resolver function for netconn api (netconn_gethostbyname) and socket api
   1328     (gethostbyname/gethostbyname_r).
   1329 
   1330   2007-11-15 Jim Pettinato, Frdric Bernon
   1331   * opt.h, init.c, tcpip.c, dhcp.c, dns.h, dns.c: add DNS client for simple name
   1332     requests with RAW api interface. Initialization is done in lwip_init() with
   1333     build time options. DNS timer is added in tcpip_thread context. DHCP can set
   1334     DNS server ip addresses when options are received. You need to set LWIP_DNS=1
   1335     in your lwipopts.h file (LWIP_DNS=0 in opt.h). DNS_DEBUG can be set to get
   1336     some traces with LWIP_DEBUGF. Sanity check have been added. There is a "todo"
   1337     list with points to improve.
   1338 
   1339   2007-11-06 Simon Goldschmidt
   1340   * opt.h, mib2.c: Patch #6215: added ifAdminStatus write support (if explicitly
   1341     enabled by defining SNMP_SAFE_REQUESTS to 0); added code to check link status
   1342     for ifOperStatus if LWIP_NETIF_LINK_CALLBACK is defined.
   1343 
   1344   2007-11-06 Simon Goldschmidt
   1345   * api.h, api_msg.h and dependent files: Task #7410: Removed the need to include
   1346     core header files in api.h (ip/tcp/udp/raw.h) to hide the internal
   1347     implementation from netconn api applications.
   1348 
   1349   2007-11-03 Frdric Bernon
   1350   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c, opt.h: add SO_RCVBUF option for UDP &
   1351     RAW netconn. You need to set LWIP_SO_RCVBUF=1 in your lwipopts.h (it's disabled
   1352     by default). Netconn API users can use the netconn_recv_bufsize macro to access
   1353     it. This is a first release which have to be improve for TCP. Note it used the
   1354     netconn::recv_avail which need to be more "thread-safe" (note there is already
   1355     the problem for FIONREAD with lwip_ioctl/ioctlsocket).
   1356 
   1357   2007-11-01 Frdric Bernon, Marc Chaland
   1358   * sockets.h, sockets.c, api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.h, api_msg.c, tcp.h, tcp_out.c:
   1359     Integrate "patch #6250 : MSG_MORE flag for send". MSG_MORE is used at socket api
   1360     layer, NETCONN_MORE at netconn api layer, and TCP_WRITE_FLAG_MORE at raw api
   1361     layer. This option enable to delayed TCP PUSH flag on multiple "write" calls.
   1362     Note that previous "copy" parameter for "write" APIs is now called "apiflags".
   1363 
   1364   2007-10-24 Frdric Bernon
   1365   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c: Add macro API_EVENT in the same spirit than 
   1366     TCP_EVENT_xxx macros to get a code more readable. It could also help to remove
   1367     some code (like we have talk in "patch #5919 : Create compile switch to remove
   1368     select code"), but it could be done later.
   1369 
   1370   2007-10-08 Simon Goldschmidt
   1371   * many files: Changed initialization: many init functions are not needed any
   1372     more since we now rely on the compiler initializing global and static
   1373     variables to zero!
   1374 
   1375   2007-10-06 Simon Goldschmidt
   1376   * ip_frag.c, memp.c, mib2.c, ip_frag.h, memp_std.h, opt.h: Changed IP_REASSEMBLY
   1377     to enqueue the received pbufs so that multiple packets can be reassembled
   1378     simultaneously and no static reassembly buffer is needed.
   1379 
   1380   2007-10-05 Simon Goldschmidt
   1381   * tcpip.c, etharp.h, etharp.c: moved ethernet_input from tcpip.c to etharp.c so
   1382     all netifs (or ports) can use it.
   1383 
   1384   2007-10-05 Frdric Bernon
   1385   * netifapi.h, netifapi.c: add function netifapi_netif_set_default. Change the 
   1386     common function to reduce a little bit the footprint (for all functions using
   1387     only the "netif" parameter).
   1388 
   1389   2007-10-03 Frdric Bernon
   1390   * netifapi.h, netifapi.c: add functions netifapi_netif_set_up, netifapi_netif_set_down,
   1391     netifapi_autoip_start and netifapi_autoip_stop. Use a common function to reduce
   1392     a little bit the footprint (for all functions using only the "netif" parameter).
   1393 
   1394   2007-09-15 Frdric Bernon
   1395   * udp.h, udp.c, sockets.c: Changes for "#20503 IGMP Improvement". Add IP_MULTICAST_IF
   1396     option in socket API, and a new field "multicast_ip" in "struct udp_pcb" (for
   1397     netconn and raw API users), only if LWIP_IGMP=1. Add getsockopt processing for
   1398     IP_MULTICAST_TTL and IP_MULTICAST_IF.
   1399 
   1400   2007-09-10 Frdric Bernon
   1401   * snmp.h, mib2.c: enable to remove SNMP timer (which consumne several cycles
   1402     even when it's not necessary). snmp_agent.txt tell to call snmp_inc_sysuptime()
   1403     each 10ms (but, it's intrusive if you use sys_timeout feature). Now, you can
   1404     decide to call snmp_add_sysuptime(100) each 1000ms (which is bigger "step", but
   1405     call to a lower frequency). Or, you can decide to not call snmp_inc_sysuptime()
   1406     or snmp_add_sysuptime(), and to define the SNMP_GET_SYSUPTIME(sysuptime) macro.
   1407     This one is undefined by default in mib2.c. SNMP_GET_SYSUPTIME is called inside
   1408     snmp_get_sysuptime(u32_t *value), and enable to change "sysuptime" value only
   1409     when it's queried (any direct call to "sysuptime" is changed by a call to 
   1410     snmp_get_sysuptime).
   1411 
   1412   2007-09-09 Frdric Bernon, Bill Florac
   1413   * igmp.h, igmp.c, netif.h, netif.c, ip.c: To enable to have interfaces with IGMP,
   1414     and others without it, there is a new NETIF_FLAG_IGMP flag to set in netif->flags
   1415     if you want IGMP on an interface. igmp_stop() is now called inside netif_remove().
   1416     igmp_report_groups() is now called inside netif_set_link_up() (need to have
   1417     LWIP_NETIF_LINK_CALLBACK=1) to resend reports once the link is up (avoid to wait
   1418     the next query message to receive the matching multicast streams).
   1419 
   1420   2007-09-08 Frdric Bernon
   1421   * sockets.c, ip.h, api.h, tcp.h: declare a "struct ip_pcb" which only contains
   1422     IP_PCB. Add in the netconn's "pcb" union a "struct ip_pcb *ip;" (no size change).
   1423     Use this new field to access to common pcb fields (ttl, tos, so_options, etc...).
   1424     Enable to access to these fields with LWIP_TCP=0.
   1425 
   1426   2007-09-05 Frdric Bernon
   1427   * udp.c, ipv4/icmp.c, ipv4/ip.c, ipv6/icmp.c, ipv6/ip6.c, ipv4/icmp.h,
   1428     ipv6/icmp.h, opt.h: Integrate "task #7272 : LWIP_ICMP option". The new option
   1429     LWIP_ICMP enable/disable ICMP module inside the IP stack (enable per default).
   1430     Be careful, disabling ICMP make your product non-compliant to RFC1122, but
   1431     help to reduce footprint, and to reduce "visibility" on the Internet.
   1432 
   1433   2007-09-05 Frdric Bernon, Bill Florac
   1434   * opt.h, sys.h, tcpip.c, slipif.c, ppp.c, sys_arch.txt: Change parameters list
   1435     for sys_thread_new (see "task #7252 : Create sys_thread_new_ex()"). Two new
   1436     parameters have to be provided: a task name, and a task stack size. For this
   1437     one, since it's platform dependant, you could define the best one for you in
   1438     your lwipopts.h. For port maintainers, you can just add these new parameters
   1439     in your sys_arch.c file, and but it's not mandatory, use them in your OS
   1440     specific functions.
   1441 
   1442   2007-09-05 Frdric Bernon
   1443   * inet.c, autoip.c, msg_in.c, msg_out.c, init.c: Move some build time checkings
   1444     inside init.c for task #7142 "Sanity check user-configurable values".
   1445 
   1446   2007-09-04 Frdric Bernon, Bill Florac
   1447   * igmp.h, igmp.c, memp_std.h, memp.c, init.c, opt.h: Replace mem_malloc call by
   1448     memp_malloc, and use a new MEMP_NUM_IGMP_GROUP option (see opt.h to define the
   1449     value). It will avoid potential fragmentation problems, use a counter to know
   1450     how many times a group is used on an netif, and free it when all applications
   1451     leave it. MEMP_NUM_IGMP_GROUP got 8 as default value (and init.c got a sanity
   1452     check if LWIP_IGMP!=0).
   1453 
   1454   2007-09-03 Frdric Bernon
   1455   * igmp.h, igmp.c, sockets.c, api_msg.c: Changes for "#20503 IGMP Improvement".
   1456     Initialize igmp_mac_filter to NULL in netif_add (this field should be set in
   1457     the netif's "init" function). Use the "imr_interface" field (for socket layer)
   1458     and/or the "interface" field (for netconn layer), for join/leave operations.
   1459     The igmp_join/leavegroup first parameter change from a netif to an ipaddr.
   1460     This field could be a netif's ipaddr, or "any" (same meaning than ip_addr_isany).
   1461 
   1462   2007-08-30 Frdric Bernon
   1463   * Add netbuf.h, netbuf.c, Change api.h, api_lib.c: #7249 "Split netbuf functions
   1464     from api/api_lib". Now netbuf API is independant of netconn, and can be used
   1465     with other API (application based on raw API, or future "socket2" API). Ports
   1466     maintainers just have to add src/api/netbuf.c in their makefile/projects.
   1467 
   1468   2007-08-30 Frdric Bernon, Jonathan Larmour
   1469   * init.c: Add first version of lwip_sanity_check for task #7142 "Sanity check
   1470     user-configurable values".
   1471 
   1472   2007-08-29 Frdric Bernon
   1473   * igmp.h, igmp.c, tcpip.c, init.c, netif.c: change igmp_init and add igmp_start.
   1474     igmp_start is call inside netif_add. Now, igmp initialization is in the same
   1475     spirit than the others modules. Modify some IGMP debug traces.
   1476 
   1477   2007-08-29 Frdric Bernon
   1478   * Add init.h, init.c, Change opt.h, tcpip.c: Task  #7213 "Add a lwip_init function"
   1479     Add lwip_init function to regroup all modules initializations, and to provide
   1480     a place to add code for task #7142 "Sanity check user-configurable values".
   1481     Ports maintainers should remove direct initializations calls from their code,
   1482     and add init.c in their makefiles. Note that lwip_init() function is called
   1483     inside tcpip_init, but can also be used by raw api users since all calls are
   1484     disabled when matching options are disabled. Also note that their is new options
   1485     in opt.h, you should configure in your lwipopts.h (they are enabled per default).
   1486 
   1487   2007-08-26 Marc Boucher
   1488   * api_msg.c: do_close_internal(): Reset the callbacks and arg (conn) to NULL
   1489     since they can under certain circumstances be called with an invalid conn
   1490     pointer after the connection has been closed (and conn has been freed). 
   1491 
   1492   2007-08-25 Frdric Bernon (Artem Migaev's Patch)
   1493   * netif.h, netif.c: Integrate "patch #6163 : Function to check if link layer is up".
   1494     Add a netif_is_link_up() function if LWIP_NETIF_LINK_CALLBACK option is set.
   1495 
   1496   2007-08-22 Frdric Bernon
   1497   * netif.h, netif.c, opt.h: Rename LWIP_NETIF_CALLBACK in LWIP_NETIF_STATUS_CALLBACK
   1498     to be coherent with new LWIP_NETIF_LINK_CALLBACK option before next release.
   1499 
   1500   2007-08-22 Frdric Bernon
   1501   * tcpip.h, tcpip.c, ethernetif.c, opt.h: remove options ETHARP_TCPIP_INPUT &
   1502     ETHARP_TCPIP_ETHINPUT, now, only "ethinput" code is supported, even if the 
   1503     name is tcpip_input (we keep the name of 1.2.0 function).
   1504 
   1505   2007-08-17 Jared Grubb
   1506   * memp_std.h, memp.h, memp.c, mem.c, stats.c: (Task #7136) Centralize mempool 
   1507     settings into new memp_std.h and optional user file lwippools.h. This adds
   1508     more dynamic mempools, and allows the user to create an arbitrary number of
   1509     mempools for mem_malloc.
   1510 
   1511   2007-08-16 Marc Boucher
   1512   * api_msg.c: Initialize newconn->state to NETCONN_NONE in accept_function;
   1513     otherwise it was left to NETCONN_CLOSE and sent_tcp() could prematurely
   1514     close the connection.
   1515 
   1516   2007-08-16 Marc Boucher
   1517   * sockets.c: lwip_accept(): check netconn_peer() error return.
   1518 
   1519   2007-08-16 Marc Boucher
   1520   * mem.c, mem.h: Added mem_calloc().
   1521 
   1522   2007-08-16 Marc Boucher
   1523   * tcpip.c, tcpip.h memp.c, memp.h: Added distinct memp (MEMP_TCPIP_MSG_INPKT)
   1524     for input packets to prevent floods from consuming all of MEMP_TCPIP_MSG
   1525     and starving other message types.
   1526     Renamed MEMP_TCPIP_MSG to MEMP_TCPIP_MSG_API
   1527 
   1528   2007-08-16 Marc Boucher
   1529   * pbuf.c, pbuf.h, etharp.c, tcp_in.c, sockets.c: Split pbuf flags in pbuf
   1530     type and flgs (later renamed to flags).
   1531     Use enum pbuf_flag as pbuf_type.  Renumber PBUF_FLAG_*.
   1532     Improved lwip_recvfrom().  TCP push now propagated.
   1533 
   1534   2007-08-16 Marc Boucher
   1535   * ethernetif.c, contrib/ports/various: ethbroadcast now a shared global
   1536     provided by etharp.
   1537 
   1538   2007-08-16 Marc Boucher
   1539   * ppp_oe.c ppp_oe.h, auth.c chap.c fsm.c lcp.c ppp.c ppp.h,
   1540     etharp.c ethernetif.c, etharp.h, opt.h tcpip.h, tcpip.c:
   1541     Added PPPoE support and various PPP improvements.
   1542 
   1543   2007-07-25 Simon Goldschmidt
   1544   * api_lib.c, ip_frag.c, pbuf.c, api.h, pbuf.h: Introduced pbuf_copy_partial,
   1545     making netbuf_copy_partial use this function.
   1546 
   1547   2007-07-25 Simon Goldschmidt
   1548   * tcp_in.c: Fix bug #20506: Slow start / initial congestion window starts with
   1549     2 * mss (instead of 1 * mss previously) to comply with some newer RFCs and
   1550     other stacks.
   1551 
   1552   2007-07-13 Jared Grubb (integrated by Frdric Bernon)
   1553   * opt.h, netif.h, netif.c, ethernetif.c: Add new configuration option to add
   1554     a link callback in the netif struct, and functions to handle it. Be carefull
   1555     for port maintainers to add the NETIF_FLAG_LINK_UP flag (like in ethernetif.c)
   1556     if you want to be sure to be compatible with future changes...
   1557 
   1558   2007-06-30 Frdric Bernon
   1559   * sockets.h, sockets.c: Implement MSG_PEEK flag for recv/recvfrom functions.
   1560 
   1561   2007-06-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   1562   * etharp.h, etharp.c: Combined etharp_request with etharp_raw for both
   1563     LWIP_AUTOIP =0 and =1 to remove redundant code.
   1564 
   1565   2007-06-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   1566   * mem.c, memp.c, mem.h, memp.h, opt.h: task #6863: Introduced the option
   1567     MEM_USE_POOLS to use 4 pools with different sized elements instead of a
   1568     heap. This both prevents memory fragmentation and gives a higher speed
   1569     at the cost of more memory consumption. Turned off by default.
   1570 
   1571   2007-06-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   1572   * api_lib.c, api_msg.c, api.h, api_msg.h: Converted the length argument of
   1573     netconn_write (and therefore also api_msg_msg.msg.w.len) from u16_t into
   1574     int to be able to send a bigger buffer than 64K with one time (mainly
   1575     used from lwip_send).
   1576 
   1577   2007-06-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   1578   * tcp.h, api_msg.c: Moved the nagle algorithm from netconn_write/do_write
   1579     into a define (tcp_output_nagle) in tcp.h to provide it to raw api users, too.
   1580 
   1581   2007-06-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   1582   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c: Fixed bug #20021: Moved sendbuf-processing in
   1583     netconn_write from api_lib.c to api_msg.c to also prevent multiple context-
   1584     changes on low memory or empty send-buffer.
   1585 
   1586   2007-06-18 Simon Goldschmidt
   1587   * etharp.c, etharp.h: Changed etharp to use a defined hardware address length
   1588     of 6 to avoid loading netif->hwaddr_len every time (since this file is only
   1589     used for ethernet and struct eth_addr already had a defined length of 6).
   1590 
   1591   2007-06-17 Simon Goldschmidt
   1592   * sockets.c, sockets.h: Implemented socket options SO_NO_CHECK for UDP sockets
   1593     to disable UDP checksum generation on transmit.
   1594 
   1595   2007-06-13 Frdric Bernon, Simon Goldschmidt
   1596   * debug.h, api_msg.c: change LWIP_ERROR to use it to check errors like invalid
   1597     pointers or parameters, and let the possibility to redefined it in cc.h. Use
   1598     this macro to check "conn" parameter in api_msg.c functions.
   1599 
   1600   2007-06-11 Simon Goldschmidt
   1601   * sockets.c, sockets.h: Added UDP lite support for sockets
   1602 
   1603   2007-06-10 Simon Goldschmidt
   1604   * udp.h, opt.h, api_msg.c, ip.c, udp.c: Included switch LWIP_UDPLITE (enabled
   1605     by default) to switch off UDP-Lite support if not needed (reduces udp.c code
   1606     size)
   1607 
   1608   2007-06-09 Dominik Spies (integrated by Frdric Bernon)
   1609   * autoip.h, autoip.c, dhcp.h, dhcp.c, netif.h, netif.c, etharp.h, etharp.c, opt.h:
   1610     AutoIP implementation available for IPv4, with new options LWIP_AUTOIP and
   1611     LWIP_DHCP_AUTOIP_COOP if you want to cooperate with DHCP. Some tips to adapt
   1612     (see TODO mark in the source code).
   1613 
   1614   2007-06-09 Simon Goldschmidt
   1615   * etharp.h, etharp.c, ethernetif.c: Modified order of parameters for
   1616     etharp_output() to match netif->output so etharp_output() can be used
   1617     directly as netif->output to save one function call.
   1618 
   1619   2007-06-08 Simon Goldschmidt
   1620   * netif.h, ethernetif.c, slipif.c, loopif.c: Added define
   1621     NETIF_INIT_SNMP(netif, type, speed) to initialize per-netif snmp variables,
   1622     added initialization of those to ethernetif, slipif and loopif.
   1623 
   1624   2007-05-18 Simon Goldschmidt
   1625   * opt.h, ip_frag.c, ip_frag.h, ip.c: Added option IP_FRAG_USES_STATIC_BUF
   1626     (defaulting to off for now) that can be set to 0 to send fragmented
   1627     packets by passing PBUF_REFs down the stack.
   1628 
   1629   2007-05-23 Frdric Bernon
   1630   * api_lib.c: Implement SO_RCVTIMEO for accept and recv on TCP
   1631     connections, such present in patch #5959.
   1632 
   1633   2007-05-23 Frdric Bernon
   1634   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c: group the different NETCONN_UDPxxx
   1635     code in only one part...
   1636 
   1637   2007-05-18 Simon Goldschmidt
   1638   * opt.h, memp.h, memp.c: Added option MEMP_OVERFLOW_CHECK to check for memp
   1639     elements to overflow. This is achieved by adding some bytes before and after
   1640     each pool element (increasing their size, of course), filling them with a
   1641     prominent value and checking them on freeing the element.
   1642     Set it to 2 to also check every element in every pool each time memp_malloc()
   1643     or memp_free() is called (slower but more helpful).
   1644 
   1645   2007-05-10 Simon Goldschmidt
   1646   * opt.h, memp.h, memp.c, pbuf.c (see task #6831): use a new memp pool for
   1647     PBUF_POOL pbufs instead of the old pool implementation in pbuf.c to reduce
   1648     code size.
   1649 
   1650   2007-05-11 Frdric Bernon
   1651   * sockets.c, api_lib.c, api_msg.h, api_msg.c, netifapi.h, netifapi.c, tcpip.c:
   1652     Include a function pointer instead of a table index in the message to reduce
   1653     footprint. Disable some part of lwip_send and lwip_sendto if some options are
   1654     not set (LWIP_TCP, LWIP_UDP, LWIP_RAW).
   1655 
   1656   2007-05-10 Simon Goldschmidt
   1657   * *.h (except netif/ppp/*.h): Included patch #5448: include '#ifdef __cplusplus
   1658     \ extern "C" {' in all header files. Now you can write your application using
   1659     the lwIP stack in C++ and simply #include the core files. Note I have left
   1660     out the netif/ppp/*h header files for now, since I don't know which files are
   1661     included by applications and which are for internal use only.
   1662 
   1663   2007-05-09 Simon Goldschmidt
   1664   * opt.h, *.c/*.h: Included patch #5920: Create define to override C-library
   1665     memcpy. 2 Defines are created: MEMCPY() for normal memcpy, SMEMCPY() for
   1666     situations where some compilers might inline the copy and save a function
   1667     call. Also replaced all calls to memcpy() with calls to (S)MEMCPY().
   1668 
   1669   2007-05-08 Simon Goldschmidt
   1670   * mem.h: If MEM_LIBC_MALLOC==1, allow the defines (e.g. mem_malloc() -> malloc())
   1671     to be overriden in case the C-library malloc implementation is not protected
   1672     against concurrent access.
   1673 
   1674   2007-05-04 Simon Goldschmidt (Atte Kojo)
   1675   * etharp.c: Introduced fast one-entry-cache to speed up ARP lookup when sending
   1676     multiple packets to the same host.
   1677 
   1678   2007-05-04 Frdric Bernon, Jonathan Larmour
   1679   * sockets.c, api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.h, api_msg.c: Fix bug #19162 "lwip_sento: a possible
   1680     to corrupt remote addr/port connection state". Reduce problems "not enought memory" with
   1681     netbuf (if we receive lot of datagrams). Improve lwip_sendto (only one exchange between
   1682     sockets api and api_msg which run in tcpip_thread context). Add netconn_sento function.
   1683     Warning, if you directly access to "fromaddr" & "fromport" field from netbuf struct,
   1684     these fields are now renamed "addr" & "port".
   1685 
   1686   2007-04-11 Jonathan Larmour
   1687   * sys.h, api_lib.c: Provide new sys_mbox_tryfetch function. Require ports to provide new
   1688     sys_arch_mbox_tryfetch function to get a message if one is there, otherwise return
   1689     with SYS_MBOX_EMPTY. sys_arch_mbox_tryfetch can be implemented as a function-like macro
   1690     by the port in sys_arch.h if desired.
   1691 
   1692   2007-04-06 Frdric Bernon, Simon Goldschmidt
   1693   * opt.h, tcpip.h, tcpip.c, netifapi.h, netifapi.c: New configuration option LWIP_NETIF_API
   1694     allow to use thread-safe functions to add/remove netif in list, and to start/stop dhcp
   1695     clients, using new functions from netifapi.h. Disable as default (no port change to do).
   1696 
   1697   2007-04-05 Frdric Bernon
   1698   * sockets.c: remplace ENOBUFS errors on alloc_socket by ENFILE to be more BSD compliant.
   1699 
   1700   2007-04-04 Simon Goldschmidt
   1701   * arch.h, api_msg.c, dhcp.c, msg_in.c, sockets.c: Introduced #define LWIP_UNUSED_ARG(x)
   1702     use this for and architecture-independent form to tell the compiler you intentionally
   1703     are not using this variable. Can be overriden in cc.h.
   1704 
   1705   2007-03-28 Frdric Bernon
   1706   * opt.h, netif.h, dhcp.h, dhcp.c: New configuration option LWIP_NETIF_HOSTNAME allow to
   1707     define a hostname in netif struct (this is just a pointer, so, you can use a hardcoded
   1708     string, point on one of your's ethernetif field, or alloc a string you will free yourself).
   1709     It will be used by DHCP to register a client hostname, but can also be use when you call
   1710     snmp_set_sysname.
   1711 
   1712   2007-03-28 Frdric Bernon
   1713   * netif.h, netif.c: A new NETIF_FLAG_ETHARP flag is defined in netif.h, to allow to 
   1714     initialize a network interface's flag with. It tell this interface is an ethernet
   1715     device, and we can use ARP with it to do a "gratuitous ARP" (RFC 3220 "IP Mobility
   1716     Support for IPv4" section 4.6) when interface is "up" with netif_set_up().
   1717 
   1718   2007-03-26 Frdric Bernon, Jonathan Larmour
   1719   * opt.h, tcpip.c: New configuration option LWIP_ARP allow to disable ARP init at build
   1720     time if you only use PPP or SLIP. The default is enable. Note we don't have to call 
   1721     etharp_init in your port's initilization sequence if you use tcpip.c, because this call
   1722     is done in tcpip_init function.
   1723 
   1724   2007-03-22 Frdric Bernon
   1725   * stats.h, stats.c, msg_in.c: Stats counters can be change to u32_t if necessary with the
   1726     new option LWIP_STATS_LARGE. If you need this option, define LWIP_STATS_LARGE to 1 in
   1727     your lwipopts.h. More, unused counters are not defined in the stats structs, and not 
   1728     display by stats_display(). Note that some options (SYS_STATS and RAW_STATS) are defined
   1729     but never used. Fix msg_in.c with the correct #if test for a stat display.
   1730 
   1731   2007-03-21 Kieran Mansley
   1732   * netif.c, netif.h: Apply patch#4197 with some changes (originator: rireland (a] hmgsl.com). 
   1733     Provides callback on netif up/down state change.
   1734 
   1735   2007-03-11 Frdric Bernon, Mace Gael, Steve Reynolds
   1736   * sockets.h, sockets.c, api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.h, api_msg.c, igmp.h, igmp.c,
   1737     ip.c, netif.h, tcpip.c, opt.h:
   1738     New configuration option LWIP_IGMP to enable IGMP processing. Based on only one 
   1739     filter per all network interfaces. Declare a new function in netif to enable to
   1740     control the MAC filter (to reduce lwIP traffic processing).
   1741 
   1742   2007-03-11 Frdric Bernon
   1743   * tcp.h, tcp.c, sockets.c, tcp_out.c, tcp_in.c, opt.h: Keepalive values can
   1744     be configured at run time with LWIP_TCP_KEEPALIVE, but don't change this
   1745     unless you know what you're doing (default are RFC1122 compliant). Note
   1746     that TCP_KEEPIDLE and TCP_KEEPINTVL have to be set in seconds.
   1747 
   1748   2007-03-08 Frdric Bernon
   1749   * tcp.h: Keepalive values can be configured at compile time, but don't change
   1750     this unless you know what you're doing (default are RFC1122 compliant).
   1751 
   1752   2007-03-08 Frdric Bernon
   1753   * sockets.c, api.h, api_lib.c, tcpip.c, sys.h, sys.c, err.c, opt.h:
   1754     Implement LWIP_SO_RCVTIMEO configuration option to enable/disable SO_RCVTIMEO
   1755     on UDP sockets/netconn.
   1756 
   1757   2007-03-08 Simon Goldschmidt
   1758   * snmp_msg.h, msg_in.c: SNMP UDP ports can be configured at compile time.
   1759 
   1760   2007-03-06 Frdric Bernon
   1761   * api.h, api_lib.c, sockets.h, sockets.c, tcpip.c, sys.h, sys.c, err.h: 
   1762     Implement SO_RCVTIMEO on UDP sockets/netconn.
   1763 
   1764   2007-02-28 Kieran Mansley (based on patch from Simon Goldschmidt)
   1765   * api_lib.c, tcpip.c, memp.c, memp.h: make API msg structs allocated
   1766     on the stack and remove the API msg type from memp
   1767 
   1768   2007-02-26 Jonathan Larmour (based on patch from Simon Goldschmidt)
   1769   * sockets.h, sockets.c: Move socket initialization to new
   1770     lwip_socket_init() function.
   1771     NOTE: this changes the API with ports. Ports will have to be
   1772     updated to call lwip_socket_init() now.
   1773 
   1774   2007-02-26 Jonathan Larmour (based on patch from Simon Goldschmidt)
   1775   * api_lib.c: Use memcpy in netbuf_copy_partial.
   1776 
   1777 
   1778   ++ Bug fixes:
   1779 
   1780   2008-03-17 Frdric Bernon, Ed Kerekes
   1781   * igmp.h, igmp.c: Fix bug #22613 "IGMP iphdr problem" (could have
   1782     some problems to fill the IP header on some targets, use now the
   1783     ip.h macros to do it).
   1784 
   1785   2008-03-13 Frdric Bernon
   1786   * sockets.c: Fix bug #22435 "lwip_recvfrom with TCP break;". Using
   1787     (lwip_)recvfrom with valid "from" and "fromlen" parameters, on a
   1788     TCP connection caused a crash. Note that using (lwip_)recvfrom
   1789     like this is a bit slow and that using (lwip)getpeername is the
   1790     good lwip way to do it (so, using recv is faster on tcp sockets).
   1791 
   1792   2008-03-12 Frdric Bernon, Jonathan Larmour
   1793   * api_msg.c, contrib/apps/ping.c: Fix bug #22530 "api_msg.c's
   1794     recv_raw() does not consume data", and the ping sample (with
   1795     LWIP_SOCKET=1, the code did the wrong supposition that lwip_recvfrom
   1796     returned the IP payload, without the IP header).
   1797 
   1798   2008-03-04 Jonathan Larmour
   1799   * mem.c, stats.c, mem.h: apply patch #6414 to avoid compiler errors
   1800   and/or warnings on some systems where mem_size_t and size_t differ.
   1801   * pbuf.c, ppp.c: Fix warnings on some systems with mem_malloc.
   1802 
   1803   2008-03-04 Kieran Mansley (contributions by others) 
   1804   * Numerous small compiler error/warning fixes from contributions to
   1805     mailing list after 1.3.0 release candidate made.
   1806 
   1807   2008-01-25 Cui hengbin (integrated by Frdric Bernon)
   1808   * dns.c: Fix bug #22108 "DNS problem" caused by unaligned structures.
   1809 
   1810   2008-01-15 Kieran Mansley
   1811   * tcp_out.c: BUG20511.  Modify persist timer to start when we are
   1812     prevented from sending by a small send window, not just a zero
   1813     send window.
   1814 
   1815   2008-01-09 Jonathan Larmour
   1816   * opt.h, ip.c: Rename IP_OPTIONS define to IP_OPTIONS_ALLOWED to avoid
   1817     conflict with Linux system headers.
   1818 
   1819   2008-01-06 Jonathan Larmour
   1820   * dhcp.c: fix bug #19927: "DHCP NACK problem" by clearing any existing set IP
   1821     address entirely on receiving a DHCPNAK, and restarting discovery.
   1822 
   1823   2007-12-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   1824   * sys.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c: fix bug #21698: "netconn->recv_avail
   1825     is not protected" by using new macros for interlocked access to modify/test
   1826     netconn->recv_avail.
   1827 
   1828   2007-12-20 Kieran Mansley (based on patch from Oleg Tyshev)
   1829   * tcp_in.c: fix bug# 21535 (nrtx not reset correctly in SYN_SENT state)
   1830 
   1831   2007-12-20 Kieran Mansley (based on patch from Per-Henrik Lundbolm)
   1832   * tcp.c, tcp_in.c, tcp_out.c, tcp.h: fix bug #20199 (better handling
   1833     of silly window avoidance and prevent lwIP from shrinking the window)
   1834 
   1835   2007-12-04 Simon Goldschmidt
   1836   * tcp.c, tcp_in.c: fix bug #21699 (segment leak in ooseq processing when last
   1837     data packet was lost): add assert that all segment lists are empty in
   1838     tcp_pcb_remove before setting pcb to CLOSED state; don't directly set CLOSED
   1839     state from LAST_ACK in tcp_process
   1840 
   1841   2007-12-02 Simon Goldschmidt
   1842   * sockets.h: fix bug #21654: exclude definition of struct timeval from #ifndef FD_SET
   1843     If including <sys/time.h> for system-struct timeval, LWIP_TIMEVAL_PRIVATE now
   1844     has to be set to 0 in lwipopts.h
   1845 
   1846   2007-12-02 Simon Goldschmidt
   1847   * api_msg.c, api_lib.c: fix bug #21656 (recvmbox problem in netconn API): always
   1848     allocate a recvmbox in netconn_new_with_proto_and_callback. For a tcp-listen
   1849     netconn, this recvmbox is later freed and a new mbox is allocated for acceptmbox.
   1850     This is a fix for thread-safety and allocates all items needed for a netconn
   1851     when the netconn is created.
   1852 
   1853   2007-11-30 Simon Goldschmidt
   1854   * udp.c: first attempt to fix bug #21655 (DHCP doesn't work reliably with multiple
   1855     netifs): if LWIP_DHCP is enabled, UDP packets to DHCP_CLIENT_PORT are passed
   1856     to netif->dhcp->pcb only (if that exists) and not to any other pcb for the same
   1857     port (only solution to let UDP pcbs 'bind' to a netif instead of an IP address)
   1858 
   1859   2007-11-27 Simon Goldschmidt
   1860   * ip.c: fixed bug #21643 (udp_send/raw_send don't fail if netif is down) by
   1861     letting ip_route only use netifs that are up.
   1862 
   1863   2007-11-27 Simon Goldschmidt
   1864   * err.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c, sockets.c: Changed error handling: ERR_MEM, ERR_BUF
   1865     and ERR_RTE are seen as non-fatal, all other errors are fatal. netconns and
   1866     sockets block most operations once they have seen a fatal error.
   1867 
   1868   2007-11-27 Simon Goldschmidt
   1869   * udp.h, udp.c, dhcp.c: Implemented new function udp_sendto_if which takes the
   1870     netif to send as an argument (to be able to send on netifs that are down).
   1871 
   1872   2007-11-26 Simon Goldschmidt
   1873   * tcp_in.c: Fixed bug #21582: pcb->acked accounting can be wrong when ACKs
   1874     arrive out-of-order
   1875 
   1876   2007-11-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   1877   * tcp.h, tcp_out.c, api_msg.c: Fixed bug #20287: tcp_output_nagle sends too early
   1878     Fixed the nagle algorithm; nagle now also works for all raw API applications
   1879     and has to be explicitly disabled with 'tcp_pcb->flags |= TF_NODELAY'
   1880 
   1881   2007-11-12 Frdric Bernon
   1882   * sockets.c, api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.h, api_msg.c: Fixed bug #20900. Now, most
   1883     of the netconn_peer and netconn_addr processing is done inside tcpip_thread
   1884     context in do_getaddr.
   1885 
   1886   2007-11-10 Simon Goldschmidt
   1887   * etharp.c: Fixed bug: assert fired when MEMP_ARP_QUEUE was empty (which can
   1888     happen any time). Now the packet simply isn't enqueued when out of memory.
   1889 
   1890   2007-11-01 Simon Goldschmidt
   1891   * tcp.c, tcp_in.c: Fixed bug #21494: The send mss (pcb->mss) is set to 536 (or
   1892     TCP_MSS if that is smaller) as long as no MSS option is received from the
   1893     remote host.
   1894 
   1895   2007-11-01 Simon Goldschmidt
   1896   * tcp.h, tcp.c, tcp_in.c: Fixed bug #21491: The MSS option sent (with SYN)
   1897     is now based on TCP_MSS instead of pcb->mss (on passive open now effectively
   1898     sending our configured TCP_MSS instead of the one received).
   1899 
   1900   2007-11-01 Simon Goldschmidt
   1901   * tcp_in.c: Fixed bug #21181: On active open, the initial congestion window was
   1902     calculated based on the configured TCP_MSS, not on the MSS option received
   1903     with SYN+ACK.
   1904 
   1905   2007-10-09 Simon Goldschmidt
   1906   * udp.c, inet.c, inet.h: Fixed UDPLite: send: Checksum was always generated too
   1907     short and also was generated wrong if checksum coverage != tot_len;
   1908     receive: checksum was calculated wrong if checksum coverage != tot_len
   1909 
   1910   2007-10-08 Simon Goldschmidt
   1911   * mem.c: lfree was not updated in mem_realloc!
   1912 
   1913   2007-10-07 Frdric Bernon
   1914   * sockets.c, api.h, api_lib.c: First step to fix "bug #20900 : Potential
   1915     crash error problem with netconn_peer & netconn_addr". VERY IMPORTANT:
   1916     this change cause an API breakage for netconn_addr, since a parameter
   1917     type change. Any compiler should cause an error without any changes in
   1918     yours netconn_peer calls (so, it can't be a "silent change"). It also
   1919     reduce a little bit the footprint for socket layer (lwip_getpeername &
   1920     lwip_getsockname use now a common lwip_getaddrname function since 
   1921     netconn_peer & netconn_addr have the same parameters).
   1922 
   1923   2007-09-20 Simon Goldschmidt
   1924   * tcp.c: Fixed bug #21080 (tcp_bind without check pcbs in TIME_WAIT state)
   1925     by checking  tcp_tw_pcbs also
   1926 
   1927   2007-09-19 Simon Goldschmidt
   1928   * icmp.c: Fixed bug #21107 (didn't reset IP TTL in ICMP echo replies)
   1929 
   1930   2007-09-15 Mike Kleshov
   1931   * mem.c: Fixed bug #21077 (inaccuracy in calculation of lwip_stat.mem.used)
   1932 
   1933   2007-09-06 Frdric Bernon
   1934   * several-files: replace some #include "arch/cc.h" by "lwip/arch.h", or simply remove
   1935     it as long as "lwip/opt.h" is included before (this one include "lwip/debug.h" which
   1936     already include "lwip/arch.h"). Like that, default defines are provided by "lwip/arch.h"
   1937     if they are not defined in cc.h, in the same spirit than "lwip/opt.h" for lwipopts.h.
   1938 
   1939   2007-08-30 Frdric Bernon
   1940   * igmp.h, igmp.c: Some changes to remove some redundant code, add some traces, 
   1941     and fix some coding style.
   1942 
   1943   2007-08-28 Frdric Bernon
   1944   * tcpip.c: Fix TCPIP_MSG_INPKT processing: now, tcpip_input can be used for any
   1945     kind of packets. These packets are considered like Ethernet packets (payload 
   1946     pointing to ethhdr) if the netif got the NETIF_FLAG_ETHARP flag. Else, packets 
   1947     are considered like IP packets (payload pointing to iphdr).
   1948 
   1949   2007-08-27 Frdric Bernon
   1950   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c: First fix for "bug #20900 : Potential crash error
   1951     problem with netconn_peer & netconn_addr". Introduce NETCONN_LISTEN netconn_state
   1952     and remove obsolete ones (NETCONN_RECV & NETCONN_ACCEPT).
   1953 
   1954   2007-08-24 Kieran Mansley
   1955   * inet.c Modify (acc >> 16) test to ((acc >> 16) != 0) to help buggy
   1956     compiler (Paradigm C++)
   1957 
   1958   2007-08-09 Frdric Bernon, Bill Florac
   1959   * stats.h, stats.c, igmp.h, igmp.c, opt.h: Fix for bug #20503 : IGMP Improvement.
   1960     Introduce IGMP_STATS to centralize statistics management.
   1961 
   1962   2007-08-09 Frdric Bernon, Bill Florac
   1963   * udp.c: Fix for bug #20503 : IGMP Improvement. Enable to receive a multicast
   1964     packet on a udp pcb binded on an netif's IP address, and not on "any".
   1965 
   1966   2007-08-09 Frdric Bernon, Bill Florac
   1967   * igmp.h, igmp.c, ip.c: Fix minor changes from bug #20503 : IGMP Improvement.
   1968     This is mainly on using lookup/lookfor, and some coding styles...
   1969 
   1970   2007-07-26 Frdric Bernon (and "thedoctor")
   1971   * igmp.c: Fix bug #20595 to accept IGMPv3 "Query" messages.
   1972 
   1973   2007-07-25 Simon Goldschmidt
   1974   * api_msg.c, tcp.c: Another fix for bug #20021: by not returning an error if
   1975     tcp_output fails in tcp_close, the code in do_close_internal gets simpler
   1976     (tcp_output is called again later from tcp timers).
   1977 
   1978   2007-07-25 Simon Goldschmidt
   1979   * ip_frag.c: Fixed bug #20429: use the new pbuf_copy_partial instead of the old
   1980     copy_from_pbuf, which illegally modified the given pbuf.
   1981 
   1982   2007-07-25 Simon Goldschmidt
   1983   * tcp_out.c: tcp_enqueue: pcb->snd_queuelen didn't work for chaine PBUF_RAMs:
   1984     changed snd_queuelen++ to snd_queuelen += pbuf_clen(p).
   1985 
   1986   2007-07-24 Simon Goldschmidt
   1987   * api_msg.c, tcp.c: Fix bug #20480: Check the pcb passed to tcp_listen() for the
   1988     correct state (must be CLOSED).
   1989 
   1990   2007-07-13 Thomas Taranowski (commited by Jared Grubb)
   1991   * memp.c: Fix bug #20478: memp_malloc returned NULL+MEMP_SIZE on failed
   1992     allocation. It now returns NULL.
   1993 
   1994   2007-07-13 Frdric Bernon
   1995   * api_msg.c: Fix bug #20318: api_msg "recv" callbacks don't call pbuf_free in
   1996     all error cases.
   1997 
   1998   2007-07-13 Frdric Bernon
   1999   * api_msg.c: Fix bug #20315: possible memory leak problem if tcp_listen failed,
   2000     because current code doesn't follow rawapi.txt documentation.
   2001 
   2002   2007-07-13 Kieran Mansley
   2003   * src/core/tcp_in.c Apply patch#5741 from Oleg Tyshev to fix bug in
   2004     out of sequence processing of received packets
   2005 
   2006   2007-07-03 Simon Goldschmidt
   2007   * nearly-all-files: Added assertions where PBUF_RAM pbufs are used and an
   2008     assumption is made that this pbuf is in one piece (i.e. not chained). These
   2009     assumptions clash with the possibility of converting to fully pool-based
   2010     pbuf implementations, where PBUF_RAM pbufs might be chained.
   2011 
   2012   2007-07-03 Simon Goldschmidt
   2013   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.c: Final fix for bug #20021 and some other problems
   2014     when closing tcp netconns: removed conn->sem, less context switches when
   2015     closing, both netconn_close and netconn_delete should safely close tcp
   2016     connections.
   2017 
   2018   2007-07-02 Simon Goldschmidt
   2019   * ipv4/ip.h, ipv6/ip.h, opt.h, netif.h, etharp.h, ipv4/ip.c, netif.c, raw.c,
   2020     tcp_out.c, udp.c, etharp.c: Added option LWIP_NETIF_HWADDRHINT (default=off)
   2021     to cache ARP table indices with each pcb instead of single-entry cache for
   2022     the complete stack.
   2023 
   2024   2007-07-02 Simon Goldschmidt
   2025   * tcp.h, tcp.c, tcp_in.c, tcp_out.c: Added some ASSERTS and casts to prevent
   2026     warnings when assigning to smaller types.
   2027 
   2028   2007-06-28 Simon Goldschmidt
   2029   * tcp_out.c: Added check to prevent tcp_pcb->snd_queuelen from overflowing.
   2030 
   2031   2007-06-28 Simon Goldschmidt
   2032   * tcp.h: Fixed bug #20287: Fixed nagle algorithm (sending was done too early if
   2033     a segment contained chained pbufs)
   2034 
   2035   2007-06-28 Frdric Bernon
   2036   * autoip.c: replace most of rand() calls by a macro LWIP_AUTOIP_RAND which compute
   2037     a "pseudo-random" value based on netif's MAC and some autoip fields. It's always
   2038     possible to define this macro in your own lwipopts.h to always use C library's
   2039     rand(). Note that autoip_create_rand_addr doesn't use this macro.
   2040 
   2041   2007-06-28 Frdric Bernon
   2042   * netifapi.h, netifapi.c, tcpip.h, tcpip.c: Update code to handle the option
   2043     LWIP_TCPIP_CORE_LOCKING, and do some changes to be coherent with last modifications
   2044     in api_lib/api_msg (use pointers and not type with table, etc...) 
   2045 
   2046   2007-06-26 Simon Goldschmidt
   2047   * udp.h: Fixed bug #20259: struct udp_hdr was lacking the packin defines.
   2048 
   2049   2007-06-25 Simon Goldschmidt
   2050   * udp.c: Fixed bug #20253: icmp_dest_unreach was called with a wrong p->payload
   2051     for udp packets with no matching pcb.
   2052 
   2053   2007-06-25 Simon Goldschmidt
   2054   * udp.c: Fixed bug #20220: UDP PCB search in udp_input(): a non-local match
   2055     could get udp input packets if the remote side matched.
   2056 
   2057   2007-06-13 Simon Goldschmidt
   2058   * netif.c: Fixed bug #20180 (TCP pcbs listening on IP_ADDR_ANY could get
   2059     changed in netif_set_ipaddr if previous netif->ip_addr.addr was 0.
   2060 
   2061   2007-06-13 Simon Goldschmidt
   2062   * api_msg.c: pcb_new sets conn->err if protocol is not implemented
   2063     -> netconn_new_..() does not allocate a new connection for unsupported
   2064     protocols.
   2065 
   2066   2007-06-13 Frdric Bernon, Simon Goldschmidt
   2067   * api_lib.c: change return expression in netconn_addr and netconn_peer, because
   2068     conn->err was reset to ERR_OK without any reasons (and error was lost)...
   2069 
   2070   2007-06-13 Frdric Bernon, Matthias Weisser
   2071   * opt.h, mem.h, mem.c, memp.c, pbuf.c, ip_frag.c, vj.c: Fix bug #20162. Rename
   2072     MEM_ALIGN in LWIP_MEM_ALIGN and MEM_ALIGN_SIZE in LWIP_MEM_ALIGN_SIZE to avoid
   2073     some macro names collision with some OS macros.
   2074 
   2075   2007-06-11 Simon Goldschmidt
   2076   * udp.c: UDP Lite: corrected the use of chksum_len (based on RFC3828: if it's 0,
   2077     create checksum over the complete packet. On RX, if it's < 8 (and not 0),
   2078     discard the packet. Also removed the duplicate 'udphdr->chksum = 0' for both
   2079     UDP & UDP Lite.
   2080 
   2081   2007-06-11 Srinivas Gollakota & Oleg Tyshev
   2082   * tcp_out.c: Fix for bug #20075 : "A problem with keep-alive timer and TCP flags"
   2083     where TCP flags wasn't initialized in tcp_keepalive.
   2084 
   2085   2007-06-03 Simon Goldschmidt
   2086   * udp.c: udp_input(): Input pbuf was not freed if pcb had no recv function
   2087     registered, p->payload was modified without modifying p->len if sending
   2088     icmp_dest_unreach() (had no negative effect but was definitively wrong).
   2089 
   2090   2007-06-03 Simon Goldschmidt
   2091   * icmp.c: Corrected bug #19937: For responding to an icmp echo request, icmp
   2092     re-used the input pbuf even if that didn't have enough space to include the
   2093     link headers. Now the space is tested and a new pbuf is allocated for the
   2094     echo response packet if the echo request pbuf isn't big enough.
   2095 
   2096   2007-06-01 Simon Goldschmidt
   2097   * sockets.c: Checked in patch #5914: Moved sockopt processing into tcpip_thread.
   2098 
   2099   2007-05-23 Frdric Bernon
   2100   * api_lib.c, sockets.c: Fixed bug #5958 for netconn_listen (acceptmbox only
   2101     allocated by do_listen if success) and netconn_accept errors handling. In
   2102     most of api_lib functions, we replace some errors checkings like "if (conn==NULL)"
   2103     by ASSERT, except for netconn_delete.
   2104 
   2105   2007-05-23 Frdric Bernon
   2106   * api_lib.c: Fixed bug #5957 "Safe-thread problem inside netconn_recv" to return
   2107     an error code if it's impossible to fetch a pbuf on a TCP connection (and not
   2108     directly close the recvmbox).
   2109 
   2110   2007-05-22 Simon Goldschmidt
   2111   * tcp.c: Fixed bug #1895 (tcp_bind not correct) by introducing a list of
   2112     bound but unconnected (and non-listening) tcp_pcbs.
   2113 
   2114   2007-05-22 Frdric Bernon
   2115   * sys.h, sys.c, api_lib.c, tcpip.c: remove sys_mbox_fetch_timeout() (was only
   2116     used for LWIP_SO_RCVTIMEO option) and use sys_arch_mbox_fetch() instead of
   2117     sys_mbox_fetch() in api files. Now, users SHOULD NOT use internal lwIP features
   2118     like "sys_timeout" in their application threads.
   2119 
   2120   2007-05-22 Frdric Bernon
   2121   * api.h, api_lib.c, api_msg.h, api_msg.c: change the struct api_msg_msg to see
   2122     which parameters are used by which do_xxx function, and to avoid "misusing"
   2123     parameters (patch #5938).
   2124 
   2125   2007-05-22 Simon Goldschmidt
   2126   * api_lib.c, api_msg.c, raw.c, api.h, api_msg.h, raw.h: Included patch #5938:
   2127     changed raw_pcb.protocol from u16_t to u8_t since for IPv4 and IPv6, proto
   2128     is only 8 bits wide. This affects the api, as there, the protocol was
   2129     u16_t, too.
   2130 
   2131   2007-05-18 Simon Goldschmidt
   2132   * memp.c: addition to patch #5913: smaller pointer was returned but
   2133     memp_memory was the same size -> did not save memory.
   2134 
   2135   2007-05-16 Simon Goldschmidt
   2136   * loopif.c, slipif.c: Fix bug #19729: free pbuf if netif->input() returns
   2137     != ERR_OK.
   2138 
   2139   2007-05-16 Simon Goldschmidt
   2140   * api_msg.c, udp.c: If a udp_pcb has a local_ip set, check if it is the same
   2141     as the one of the netif used for sending to prevent sending from old
   2142     addresses after a netif address gets changed (partly fixes bug #3168).
   2143 
   2144   2007-05-16 Frdric Bernon
   2145   * tcpip.c, igmp.h, igmp.c: Fixed bug "#19800 : IGMP: igmp_tick() will not work
   2146     with NO_SYS=1". Note that igmp_init is always in tcpip_thread (and not in 
   2147     tcpip_init) because we have to be sure that network interfaces are already
   2148     added (mac filter is updated only in igmp_init for the moment).
   2149 
   2150   2007-05-16 Simon Goldschmidt
   2151   * mem.c, memp.c: Removed semaphores from memp, changed sys_sem_wait calls
   2152     into sys_arch_sem_wait calls to prevent timers from running while waiting
   2153     for the heap. This fixes bug #19167.
   2154 
   2155   2007-05-13 Simon Goldschmidt
   2156   * tcp.h, sockets.h, sockets.c: Fixed bug from patch #5865 by moving the defines
   2157     for socket options (lwip_set/-getsockopt) used with level IPPROTO_TCP from
   2158     tcp.h to sockets.h.
   2159 
   2160   2007-05-07 Simon Goldschmidt
   2161   * mem.c: Another attempt to fix bug #17922.
   2162 
   2163   2007-05-04 Simon Goldschmidt
   2164   * pbuf.c, pbuf.h, etharp.c: Further update to ARP queueing: Changed pbuf_copy()
   2165     implementation so that it can be reused (don't allocate the target
   2166     pbuf inside pbuf_copy()).
   2167 
   2168   2007-05-04 Simon Goldschmidt
   2169   * memp.c: checked in patch #5913: in memp_malloc() we can return memp as mem
   2170     to save a little RAM (next pointer of memp is not used while not in pool).
   2171 
   2172   2007-05-03 "maq"
   2173   * sockets.c: Fix ioctl FIONREAD when some data remains from last recv.
   2174     (patch #3574).
   2175 
   2176   2007-04-23 Simon Goldschmidt
   2177   * loopif.c, loopif.h, opt.h, src/netif/FILES: fix bug #2595: "loopif results
   2178     in NULL reference for incoming TCP packets". Loopif has to be configured
   2179     (using LWIP_LOOPIF_MULTITHREADING) to directly call netif->input()
   2180     (multithreading environments, e.g. netif->input() = tcpip_input()) or
   2181     putting packets on a list that is fed to the stack by calling loopif_poll()
   2182     (single-thread / NO_SYS / polling environment where e.g.
   2183     netif->input() = ip_input).
   2184 
   2185   2007-04-17 Jonathan Larmour
   2186   * pbuf.c: Use s32_t in pbuf_realloc(), as an s16_t can't reliably hold
   2187     the difference between two u16_t's.
   2188   * sockets.h: FD_SETSIZE needs to match number of sockets, which is
   2189     MEMP_NUM_NETCONN in sockets.c right now.
   2190 
   2191   2007-04-12 Jonathan Larmour
   2192   * icmp.c: Reset IP header TTL in ICMP ECHO responses (bug #19580).
   2193 
   2194   2007-04-12 Kieran Mansley
   2195   * tcp.c, tcp_in.c, tcp_out.c, tcp.h: Modify way the retransmission
   2196     timer is reset to fix bug#19434, with help from Oleg Tyshev.
   2197 
   2198   2007-04-11 Simon Goldschmidt
   2199   * etharp.c, pbuf.c, pbuf.h: 3rd fix for bug #11400 (arp-queuing): More pbufs than
   2200     previously thought need to be copied (everything but PBUF_ROM!). Cleaned up
   2201     pbuf.c: removed functions no needed any more (by etharp).
   2202 
   2203   2007-04-11 Kieran Mansley
   2204   * inet.c, ip_addr.h, sockets.h, sys.h, tcp.h: Apply patch #5745: Fix
   2205     "Constant is long" warnings with 16bit compilers.  Contributed by
   2206     avatar (a] mmlab.cse.yzu.edu.tw
   2207 
   2208   2007-04-05 Frdric Bernon, Jonathan Larmour
   2209   * api_msg.c: Fix bug #16830: "err_tcp() posts to connection mailbox when no pend on
   2210     the mailbox is active". Now, the post is only done during a connect, and do_send,
   2211     do_write and do_join_leave_group don't do anything if a previous error was signaled.
   2212 
   2213   2007-04-03 Frdric Bernon
   2214   * ip.c: Don't set the IP_DF ("Don't fragment") flag in the IP header in IP output
   2215     packets. See patch #5834.
   2216 
   2217   2007-03-30 Frdric Bernon
   2218   * api_msg.c: add a "pcb_new" helper function to avoid redundant code, and to add
   2219     missing  pcb allocations checking (in do_bind, and for each raw_new). Fix style.
   2220 
   2221   2007-03-30 Frdric Bernon
   2222   * most of files: prefix all debug.h define with "LWIP_" to avoid any conflict with
   2223     others environment defines (these were too "generic").
   2224 
   2225   2007-03-28 Frdric Bernon
   2226   * api.h, api_lib.c, sockets.c: netbuf_ref doesn't check its internal pbuf_alloc call
   2227     result and can cause a crash. lwip_send now check netbuf_ref result.
   2228 
   2229   2007-03-28 Simon Goldschmidt
   2230   * sockets.c Remove "#include <errno.h>" from sockets.c to avoid multiple
   2231     definition of macros (in errno.h and lwip/arch.h) if LWIP_PROVIDE_ERRNO is
   2232     defined. This is the way it should have been already (looking at
   2233     doc/sys_arch.txt)
   2234 
   2235   2007-03-28 Kieran Mansley
   2236   * opt.h Change default PBUF_POOL_BUFSIZE (again) to accomodate default MSS +
   2237     IP and TCP headers *and* physical link headers
   2238 
   2239   2007-03-26 Frdric Bernon (based on patch from Dmitry Potapov)
   2240   * api_lib.c: patch for netconn_write(), fixes a possible race condition which cause
   2241     to send some garbage. It is not a definitive solution, but the patch does solve
   2242     the problem for most cases.
   2243 
   2244   2007-03-22 Frdric Bernon
   2245   * api_msg.h, api_msg.c: Remove obsolete API_MSG_ACCEPT and do_accept (never used).
   2246 
   2247   2007-03-22 Frdric Bernon
   2248   * api_lib.c: somes resources couldn't be freed if there was errors during
   2249     netconn_new_with_proto_and_callback.
   2250 
   2251   2007-03-22 Frdric Bernon
   2252   * ethernetif.c: update netif->input calls to check return value. In older ports,
   2253     it's a good idea to upgrade them, even if before, there could be another problem
   2254     (access to an uninitialized mailbox).
   2255 
   2256   2007-03-21 Simon Goldschmidt
   2257   * sockets.c: fixed bug #5067 (essentialy a signed/unsigned warning fixed
   2258     by casting to unsigned).
   2259 
   2260   2007-03-21 Frdric Bernon
   2261   * api_lib.c, api_msg.c, tcpip.c: integrate sys_mbox_fetch(conn->mbox, NULL) calls from
   2262     api_lib.c to tcpip.c's tcpip_apimsg(). Now, use a local variable and not a
   2263     dynamic one from memp to send tcpip_msg to tcpip_thread in a synchrone call.
   2264     Free tcpip_msg from tcpip_apimsg is not done in tcpip_thread. This give a
   2265     faster and more reliable communication between api_lib and tcpip.
   2266 
   2267   2007-03-21 Frdric Bernon
   2268   * opt.h: Add LWIP_NETIF_CALLBACK (to avoid compiler warning) and set it to 0.
   2269 
   2270   2007-03-21 Frdric Bernon
   2271   * api_msg.c, igmp.c, igmp.h: Fix C++ style comments
   2272 
   2273   2007-03-21 Kieran Mansley
   2274   * opt.h Change default PBUF_POOL_BUFSIZE to accomodate default MSS +
   2275     IP and TCP headers
   2276 
   2277   2007-03-21 Kieran Mansley
   2278   * Fix all uses of pbuf_header to check the return value.  In some
   2279     cases just assert if it fails as I'm not sure how to fix them, but
   2280     this is no worse than before when they would carry on regardless
   2281     of the failure.
   2282 
   2283   2007-03-21 Kieran Mansley
   2284   * sockets.c, igmp.c, igmp.h, memp.h: Fix C++ style comments and
   2285     comment out missing header include in icmp.c
   2286 
   2287   2007-03-20 Frdric Bernon
   2288   * memp.h, stats.c: Fix stats_display function where memp_names table wasn't
   2289     synchronized with memp.h.
   2290 
   2291   2007-03-20 Frdric Bernon
   2292   * tcpip.c: Initialize tcpip's mbox, and verify if initialized in tcpip_input,
   2293     tcpip_ethinput, tcpip_callback, tcpip_apimsg, to fix a init problem with 
   2294     network interfaces. Also fix a compiler warning.
   2295 
   2296   2007-03-20 Kieran Mansley
   2297   * udp.c: Only try and use pbuf_header() to make space for headers if
   2298     not a ROM or REF pbuf.
   2299 
   2300   2007-03-19 Frdric Bernon
   2301   * api_msg.h, api_msg.c, tcpip.h, tcpip.c: Add return types to tcpip_apimsg()
   2302     and api_msg_post().
   2303 
   2304   2007-03-19 Frdric Bernon
   2305   * Remove unimplemented "memp_realloc" function from memp.h.
   2306 
   2307   2007-03-11 Simon Goldschmidt
   2308   * pbuf.c: checked in patch #5796: pbuf_alloc: len field claculation caused
   2309     memory corruption.
   2310 
   2311   2007-03-11 Simon Goldschmidt (based on patch from Dmitry Potapov)
   2312   * api_lib.c, sockets.c, api.h, api_msg.h, sockets.h: Fixed bug #19251
   2313     (missing `const' qualifier in socket functions), to get more compatible to
   2314     standard POSIX sockets.
   2315 
   2316   2007-03-11 Frdric Bernon (based on patch from Dmitry Potapov)
   2317   * sockets.c: Add asserts inside bind, connect and sendto to check input
   2318     parameters. Remove excessive set_errno() calls after get_socket(), because
   2319     errno is set inside of get_socket(). Move last sock_set_errno() inside
   2320     lwip_close.
   2321 
   2322   2007-03-09 Simon Goldschmidt
   2323   * memp.c: Fixed bug #11400: New etharp queueing introduced bug: memp_memory
   2324     was allocated too small.
   2325 
   2326   2007-03-06 Simon Goldschmidt
   2327   * tcpip.c: Initialize dhcp timers in tcpip_thread (if LWIP_DHCP) to protect
   2328     the stack from concurrent access.
   2329 
   2330   2007-03-06 Frdric Bernon, Dmitry Potapov
   2331   * tcpip.c, ip_frag.c, ethernetif.c: Fix some build problems, and a redundancy
   2332     call to "lwip_stats.link.recv++;" in low_level_input() & ethernetif_input().
   2333 
   2334   2007-03-06 Simon Goldschmidt
   2335   * ip_frag.c, ip_frag.h: Reduce code size: don't include code in those files
   2336     if IP_FRAG == 0 and IP_REASSEMBLY == 0
   2337 
   2338   2007-03-06 Frdric Bernon, Simon Goldschmidt
   2339   * opt.h, ip_frag.h, tcpip.h, tcpip.c, ethernetif.c: add new configuration
   2340     option named ETHARP_TCPIP_ETHINPUT, which enable the new tcpip_ethinput.
   2341     Allow to do ARP processing for incoming packets inside tcpip_thread
   2342     (protecting ARP layer against concurrent access). You can also disable
   2343     old code using tcp_input with new define ETHARP_TCPIP_INPUT set to 0.
   2344     Older ports have to use tcpip_ethinput.
   2345 
   2346   2007-03-06 Simon Goldschmidt (based on patch from Dmitry Potapov)
   2347   * err.h, err.c: fixed compiler warning "initialization dircards qualifiers
   2348     from pointer target type"
   2349 
   2350   2007-03-05 Frdric Bernon
   2351   * opt.h, sockets.h: add new configuration options (LWIP_POSIX_SOCKETS_IO_NAMES,
   2352     ETHARP_TRUST_IP_MAC, review SO_REUSE)
   2353 
   2354   2007-03-04 Frdric Bernon
   2355   * api_msg.c: Remove some compiler warnings : parameter "pcb" was never
   2356     referenced.
   2357 
   2358   2007-03-04 Frdric Bernon
   2359   * api_lib.c: Fix "[patch #5764] api_lib.c cleanup: after patch #5687" (from
   2360     Dmitry Potapov).
   2361     The api_msg struct stay on the stack (not moved to netconn struct).
   2362 
   2363   2007-03-04 Simon Goldschmidt (based on patch from Dmitry Potapov)
   2364   * pbuf.c: Fix BUG#19168 - pbuf_free can cause deadlock (if
   2365     SYS_LIGHTWEIGHT_PROT=1 & freeing PBUF_RAM when mem_sem is not available)
   2366     Also fixed cast warning in pbuf_alloc()
   2367 
   2368   2007-03-04 Simon Goldschmidt
   2369   * etharp.c, etharp.h, memp.c, memp.h, opt.h: Fix BUG#11400 - don't corrupt
   2370     existing pbuf chain when enqueuing multiple pbufs to a pending ARP request
   2371 
   2372   2007-03-03 Frdric Bernon
   2373   * udp.c: remove obsolete line "static struct udp_pcb *pcb_cache = NULL;"
   2374     It is static, and never used in udp.c except udp_init().
   2375 
   2376   2007-03-02 Simon Goldschmidt
   2377   * tcpip.c: Moved call to ip_init(), udp_init() and tcp_init() from
   2378     tcpip_thread() to tcpip_init(). This way, raw API connections can be
   2379     initialized before tcpip_thread is running (e.g. before OS is started)
   2380 
   2381   2007-03-02 Frdric Bernon
   2382   * rawapi.txt: Fix documentation mismatch with etharp.h about etharp_tmr's call
   2383     interval.
   2384 
   2385   2007-02-28 Kieran Mansley 
   2386   * pbuf.c: Fix BUG#17645 - ensure pbuf payload pointer is not moved
   2387     outside the region of the pbuf by pbuf_header()
   2388 
   2389   2007-02-28 Kieran Mansley 
   2390   * sockets.c: Fix BUG#19161 - ensure milliseconds timeout is non-zero
   2391     when supplied timeout is also non-zero 
   2392 
   2393 (STABLE-1.2.0)
   2394 
   2395   2006-12-05 Leon Woestenberg
   2396   * CHANGELOG: Mention STABLE-1.2.0 release.
   2397 
   2398   ++ New features:
   2399 
   2400   2006-12-01 Christiaan Simons
   2401   * mem.h, opt.h: Added MEM_LIBC_MALLOC option.
   2402     Note this is a workaround. Currently I have no other options left.
   2403 
   2404   2006-10-26 Christiaan Simons (accepted patch by Jonathan Larmour)
   2405   * ipv4/ip_frag.c: rename MAX_MTU to IP_FRAG_MAX_MTU and move define
   2406     to include/lwip/opt.h.
   2407   * ipv4/lwip/ip_frag.h: Remove unused IP_REASS_INTERVAL.
   2408     Move IP_REASS_MAXAGE and IP_REASS_BUFSIZE to include/lwip/opt.h.
   2409   * opt.h: Add above new options.
   2410 
   2411   2006-08-18 Christiaan Simons
   2412   * tcp_{in,out}.c: added SNMP counters.
   2413   * ipv4/ip.c: added SNMP counters.
   2414   * ipv4/ip_frag.c: added SNMP counters.
   2415 
   2416   2006-08-08 Christiaan Simons
   2417   * etharp.{c,h}: added etharp_find_addr() to read
   2418     (stable) ethernet/IP address pair from ARP table
   2419 
   2420   2006-07-14 Christiaan Simons
   2421   * mib_structs.c: added
   2422   * include/lwip/snmp_structs.h: added
   2423   * netif.{c,h}, netif/ethernetif.c: added SNMP statistics to netif struct
   2424 
   2425   2006-07-06 Christiaan Simons
   2426   * snmp/asn1_{enc,dec}.c added
   2427   * snmp/mib2.c added
   2428   * snmp/msg_{in,out}.c added
   2429   * include/lwip/snmp_asn1.h added
   2430   * include/lwip/snmp_msg.h added
   2431   * doc/snmp_agent.txt added
   2432 
   2433   2006-03-29 Christiaan Simons
   2434   * inet.c, inet.h: Added platform byteswap support.
   2435     Added LWIP_PLATFORM_BYTESWAP define (defaults to 0) and
   2436     optional LWIP_PLATFORM_HTONS(), LWIP_PLATFORM_HTONL() macros.
   2437 
   2438   ++ Bug fixes:
   2439 
   2440   2006-11-30 Christiaan Simons
   2441   * dhcp.c: Fixed false triggers of request_timeout.
   2442 
   2443   2006-11-28 Christiaan Simons
   2444   * netif.c: In netif_add() fixed missing clear of ip_addr, netmask, gw and flags.
   2445 
   2446   2006-10-11 Christiaan Simons
   2447   * api_lib.c etharp.c, ip.c, memp.c, stats.c, sys.{c,h} tcp.h:
   2448     Partially accepted patch #5449 for ANSI C compatibility / build fixes.
   2449   * ipv4/lwip/ip.h ipv6/lwip/ip.h: Corrected UDP-Lite protocol
   2450     identifier from 170 to 136 (bug #17574).
   2451 
   2452   2006-10-10 Christiaan Simons
   2453   * api_msg.c: Fixed Nagle algorithm as reported by Bob Grice.
   2454 
   2455   2006-08-17 Christiaan Simons
   2456   * udp.c: Fixed bug #17200, added check for broadcast
   2457     destinations for PCBs bound to a unicast address.
   2458 
   2459   2006-08-07 Christiaan Simons
   2460   * api_msg.c: Flushing TCP output in do_close() (bug #15926).
   2461 
   2462   2006-06-27 Christiaan Simons
   2463   * api_msg.c: Applied patch for cold case (bug #11135).
   2464     In accept_function() ensure newconn->callback is always initialized.
   2465 
   2466   2006-06-15 Christiaan Simons
   2467   * mem.h: added MEM_SIZE_F alias to fix an ancient cold case (bug #1748),
   2468     facilitate printing of mem_size_t and u16_t statistics.
   2469 
   2470   2006-06-14 Christiaan Simons
   2471   * api_msg.c: Applied patch #5146 to handle allocation failures
   2472     in accept() by Kevin Lawson.
   2473 
   2474   2006-05-26 Christiaan Simons
   2475   * api_lib.c: Removed conn->sem creation and destruction 
   2476     from netconn_write() and added sys_sem_new to netconn_new_*.
   2477 
   2478 (STABLE-1_1_1)
   2479 
   2480   2006-03-03  Christiaan Simons
   2481   * ipv4/ip_frag.c: Added bound-checking assertions on ip_reassbitmap
   2482     access and added pbuf_alloc() return value checks.
   2483 
   2484   2006-01-01  Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2485   * tcp_{in,out}.c, tcp_out.c: Removed 'even sndbuf' fix in TCP, which is
   2486     now handled by the checksum routine properly.
   2487 
   2488   2006-02-27  Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2489    * pbuf.c: Fix alignment; pbuf_init() would not work unless
   2490      pbuf_pool_memory[] was properly aligned. (Patch by Curt McDowell.)
   2491 
   2492   2005-12-20  Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2493   * tcp.c: Remove PCBs which stay in LAST_ACK state too long. Patch
   2494     submitted by Mitrani Hiroshi.
   2495 
   2496   2005-12-15  Christiaan Simons
   2497   * inet.c: Disabled the added summing routine to preserve code space.
   2498 
   2499   2005-12-14  Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2500   * tcp_in.c: Duplicate FIN ACK race condition fix by Kelvin Lawson.
   2501     Added Curt McDowell's optimized checksumming routine for future
   2502     inclusion. Need to create test case for unaliged, aligned, odd,
   2503     even length combination of cases on various endianess machines.
   2504 
   2505   2005-12-09  Christiaan Simons
   2506   * inet.c: Rewrote standard checksum routine in proper portable C.
   2507 
   2508   2005-11-25  Christiaan Simons
   2509   * udp.c tcp.c: Removed SO_REUSE hack. Should reside in socket code only.
   2510   * *.c: introduced cc.h LWIP_DEBUG formatters matching the u16_t, s16_t,
   2511     u32_t, s32_t typedefs. This solves most debug word-length assumes.
   2512 
   2513   2005-07-17 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2514   * inet.c: Fixed unaligned 16-bit access in the standard checksum
   2515     routine by Peter Jolasson.
   2516   * slipif.c: Fixed implementation assumption of single-pbuf datagrams.
   2517 
   2518   2005-02-04 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2519   * tcp_out.c: Fixed uninitialized 'queue' referenced in memerr branch.
   2520   * tcp_{out|in}.c: Applied patch fixing unaligned access.
   2521 
   2522   2005-01-04 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2523   * pbuf.c: Fixed missing semicolon after LWIP_DEBUG statement.
   2524 
   2525   2005-01-03 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2526   * udp.c: UDP pcb->recv() was called even when it was NULL.
   2527 
   2528 (STABLE-1_1_0)
   2529 
   2530   2004-12-28 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2531   * etharp.*: Disabled multiple packets on the ARP queue.
   2532     This clashes with TCP queueing.
   2533 
   2534   2004-11-28 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2535   * etharp.*: Fixed race condition from ARP request to ARP timeout.
   2536     Halved the ARP period, doubled the period counts.
   2537     ETHARP_MAX_PENDING now should be at least 2. This prevents
   2538     the counter from reaching 0 right away (which would allow
   2539     too little time for ARP responses to be received).
   2540 
   2541   2004-11-25 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2542   * dhcp.c: Decline messages were not multicast but unicast.
   2543   * etharp.c: ETHARP_CREATE is renamed to ETHARP_TRY_HARD.
   2544     Do not try hard to insert arbitrary packet's source address,
   2545     etharp_ip_input() now calls etharp_update() without ETHARP_TRY_HARD. 
   2546     etharp_query() now always DOES call ETHARP_TRY_HARD so that users
   2547     querying an address will see it appear in the cache (DHCP could
   2548     suffer from this when a server invalidly gave an in-use address.)
   2549   * ipv4/ip_addr.h: Renamed ip_addr_maskcmp() to _netcmp() as we are
   2550     comparing network addresses (identifiers), not the network masks
   2551     themselves.
   2552   * ipv4/ip_addr.c: ip_addr_isbroadcast() now checks that the given
   2553     IP address actually belongs to the network of the given interface.
   2554 
   2555   2004-11-24 Kieran Mansley <kjm25 (a] cam.ac.uk>
   2556   * tcp.c: Increment pcb->snd_buf when ACK is received in SYN_SENT state.
   2557 
   2558 (STABLE-1_1_0-RC1)
   2559 
   2560   2004-10-16 Kieran Mansley <kjm25 (a] cam.ac.uk>
   2561   * tcp.c: Add code to tcp_recved() to send an ACK (window update) immediately,
   2562     even if one is already pending, if the rcv_wnd is above a threshold
   2563     (currently TCP_WND/2). This avoids waiting for a timer to expire to send a
   2564     delayed ACK in order to open the window if the stack is only receiving data.
   2565 
   2566   2004-09-12 Kieran Mansley <kjm25 (a] cam.ac.uk>
   2567   * tcp*.*: Retransmit time-out handling improvement by Sam Jansen.
   2568 
   2569   2004-08-20 Tony Mountifield <tony (a] softins.co.uk>
   2570   * etharp.c: Make sure the first pbuf queued on an ARP entry
   2571     is properly ref counted.
   2572 
   2573   2004-07-27 Tony Mountifield <tony (a] softins.co.uk>
   2574   * debug.h: Added (int) cast in LWIP_DEBUGF() to avoid compiler
   2575     warnings about comparison.
   2576   * pbuf.c: Stopped compiler complaining of empty if statement
   2577     when LWIP_DEBUGF() empty.  Closed an unclosed comment.
   2578   * tcp.c: Stopped compiler complaining of empty if statement
   2579     when LWIP_DEBUGF() empty.
   2580   * ip.h Corrected IPH_TOS() macro: returns a byte, so doesn't need htons().
   2581   * inet.c: Added a couple of casts to quiet the compiler.
   2582     No need to test isascii(c) before isdigit(c) or isxdigit(c).
   2583 
   2584   2004-07-22 Tony Mountifield <tony (a] softins.co.uk>
   2585   * inet.c: Made data types consistent in inet_ntoa().
   2586     Added casts for return values of checksum routines, to pacify compiler.
   2587   * ip_frag.c, tcp_out.c, sockets.c, pbuf.c
   2588     Small corrections to some debugging statements, to pacify compiler.
   2589 
   2590   2004-07-21 Tony Mountifield <tony (a] softins.co.uk>
   2591   * etharp.c: Removed spurious semicolon and added missing end-of-comment.
   2592   * ethernetif.c Updated low_level_output() to match prototype for
   2593     netif->linkoutput and changed low_level_input() similarly for consistency.
   2594   * api_msg.c: Changed recv_raw() from int to u8_t, to match prototype
   2595     of raw_recv() in raw.h and so avoid compiler error.
   2596   * sockets.c: Added trivial (int) cast to keep compiler happier.
   2597   * ip.c, netif.c Changed debug statements to use the tidier ip4_addrN() macros.

   2602 
   2603   2004-07-05 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2604   * sockets.*: Restructured LWIP_PRIVATE_TIMEVAL. Make sure
   2605     your cc.h file defines this either 1 or 0. If non-defined,
   2606     defaults to 1.
   2607   * .c: Added <string.h> and <errno.h> includes where used.
   2608   * etharp.c: Made some array indices unsigned.
   2609 
   2610   2004-06-27 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2611   * netif.*: Added netif_set_up()/down().
   2612   * dhcp.c: Changes to restart program flow.
   2613 
   2614   2004-05-07 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2615   * etharp.c: In find_entry(), instead of a list traversal per candidate, do a
   2616     single-pass lookup for different candidates. Should exploit locality.
   2617 
   2618   2004-04-29 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2619   * tcp*.c: Cleaned up source comment documentation for Doxygen processing.
   2620   * opt.h: ETHARP_ALWAYS_INSERT option removed to comply with ARP RFC.
   2621   * etharp.c: update_arp_entry() only adds new ARP entries when adviced to by
   2622     the caller. This deprecates the ETHARP_ALWAYS_INSERT overrule option.
   2623 
   2624   ++ Bug fixes:
   2625 
   2626   2004-04-27 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2627   * etharp.c: Applied patch of bug #8708 by Toni Mountifield with a solution
   2628     suggested by Timmy Brolin. Fix for 32-bit processors that cannot access
   2629     non-aligned 32-bit words, such as soms 32-bit TCP/IP header fields. Fix
   2630     is to prefix the 14-bit Ethernet headers with two padding bytes.
   2631 
   2632   2004-04-23 Leon Woestenberg <leon.woestenberg (a] gmx.net>
   2633   * ip_addr.c: Fix in the ip_addr_isbroadcast() check.
   2634   * etharp.c: Fixed the case where the packet that initiates the ARP request
   2635     is not queued, and gets lost. Fixed the case where the packets destination
   2636     address is already known; we now always queue the packet and perform an ARP
   2637     request.
   2638 
   2639 (STABLE-0_7_0)
   2640 
   2641   ++ Bug fixes:
   2642 
   2643   * Fixed TCP bug for SYN_SENT to ESTABLISHED state transition.
   2644   * Fixed TCP bug in dequeueing of FIN from out of order segment queue.
   2645   * Fixed two possible NULL references in rare cases.
   2646 
   2647 (STABLE-0_6_6)
   2648 
   2649   ++ Bug fixes:
   2650 
   2651   * Fixed DHCP which did not include the IP address in DECLINE messages.
   2652 
   2653   ++ Changes:
   2654 
   2655   * etharp.c has been hauled over a bit.
   2656 
   2657 (STABLE-0_6_5)
   2658 
   2659   ++ Bug fixes:
   2660 
   2661   * Fixed TCP bug induced by bad window resizing with unidirectional TCP traffic.
   2662   * Packets sent from ARP queue had invalid source hardware address.
   2663 
   2664   ++ Changes:
   2665 
   2666   * Pass-by ARP requests do now update the cache.
   2667 
   2668   ++ New features:
   2669 
   2670   * No longer dependent on ctype.h.
   2671   * New socket options.
   2672   * Raw IP pcb support.
   2673 
   2674 (STABLE-0_6_4)
   2675 
   2676   ++ Bug fixes:
   2677 
   2678   * Some debug formatters and casts fixed.
   2679   * Numereous fixes in PPP.
   2680 
   2681   ++ Changes:
   2682 
   2683   * DEBUGF now is LWIP_DEBUGF
   2684   * pbuf_dechain() has been re-enabled.
   2685   * Mentioned the changed use of CVS branches in README.
   2686 
   2687 (STABLE-0_6_3)
   2688 
   2689   ++ Bug fixes:
   2690 
   2691   * Fixed pool pbuf memory leak in pbuf_alloc().
   2692     Occured if not enough PBUF_POOL pbufs for a packet pbuf chain.
   2693     Reported by Savin Zlobec.
   2694 
   2695   * PBUF_POOL chains had their tot_len field not set for non-first
   2696     pbufs. Fixed in pbuf_alloc().
   2697 
   2698   ++ New features:
   2699 
   2700   * Added PPP stack contributed by Marc Boucher
   2701 
   2702   ++ Changes:
   2703 
   2704   * Now drops short packets for ICMP/UDP/TCP protocols. More robust.
   2705 
   2706   * ARP queueuing now queues the latest packet instead of the first.
   2707     This is the RFC recommended behaviour, but can be overridden in
   2708     lwipopts.h.
   2709 
   2710 (0.6.2)
   2711 
   2712   ++ Bugfixes:
   2713 
   2714   * TCP has been fixed to deal with the new use of the pbuf->ref
   2715     counter.
   2716 
   2717   * DHCP dhcp_inform() crash bug fixed.
   2718 
   2719   ++ Changes:
   2720 
   2721   * Removed pbuf_pool_free_cache and pbuf_pool_alloc_cache. Also removed
   2722     pbuf_refresh(). This has sped up pbuf pool operations considerably.
   2723     Implemented by David Haas.
   2724 
   2725 (0.6.1)
   2726 
   2727   ++ New features:
   2728 
   2729   * The packet buffer implementation has been enhanced to support
   2730     zero-copy and copy-on-demand for packet buffers which have their
   2731     payloads in application-managed memory.
   2732     Implemented by David Haas.
   2733 
   2734     Use PBUF_REF to make a pbuf refer to RAM. lwIP will use zero-copy
   2735     if an outgoing packet can be directly sent on the link, or perform
   2736     a copy-on-demand when necessary.
   2737 
   2738     The application can safely assume the packet is sent, and the RAM
   2739     is available to the application directly after calling udp_send()
   2740     or similar function.
   2741 
   2742   ++ Bugfixes:
   2743 
   2744   * ARP_QUEUEING should now correctly work for all cases, including
   2745     PBUF_REF.
   2746     Implemented by Leon Woestenberg.
   2747 
   2748   ++ Changes:
   2749 
   2750   * IP_ADDR_ANY is no longer a NULL pointer. Instead, it is a pointer
   2751     to a '0.0.0.0' IP address.
   2752 
   2753   * The packet buffer implementation is changed. The pbuf->ref counter
   2754     meaning has changed, and several pbuf functions have been
   2755     adapted accordingly.
   2756 
   2757   * netif drivers have to be changed to set the hardware address length field
   2758     that must be initialized correctly by the driver (hint: 6 for Ethernet MAC).
   2759     See the contrib/ports/c16x cs8900 driver as a driver example.
   2760 
   2761   * netif's have a dhcp field that must be initialized to NULL by the driver.
   2762     See the contrib/ports/c16x cs8900 driver as a driver example.
   2763 
   2764 (0.5.x) This file has been unmaintained up to 0.6.1. All changes are
   2765   logged in CVS but have not been explained here.
   2766 
   2767 (0.5.3) Changes since version 0.5.2
   2768 
   2769   ++ Bugfixes:
   2770 
   2771   * memp_malloc(MEMP_API_MSG) could fail with multiple application
   2772     threads because it wasn't protected by semaphores.
   2773 
   2774   ++ Other changes:
   2775 
   2776   * struct ip_addr now packed.
   2777 
   2778   * The name of the time variable in arp.c has been changed to ctime
   2779     to avoid conflicts with the time() function.
   2780 
   2781 (0.5.2) Changes since version 0.5.1
   2782 
   2783   ++ New features:
   2784 
   2785   * A new TCP function, tcp_tmr(), now handles both TCP timers.
   2786 
   2787   ++ Bugfixes:
   2788 
   2789   * A bug in tcp_parseopt() could cause the stack to hang because of a
   2790     malformed TCP option.
   2791 
   2792   * The address of new connections in the accept() function in the BSD
   2793     socket library was not handled correctly.
   2794 
   2795   * pbuf_dechain() did not update the ->tot_len field of the tail.
   2796 
   2797   * Aborted TCP connections were not handled correctly in all
   2798     situations.
   2799 
   2800   ++ Other changes:
   2801 
   2802   * All protocol header structs are now packed.
   2803 
   2804   * The ->len field in the tcp_seg structure now counts the actual
   2805     amount of data, and does not add one for SYN and FIN segments.
   2806 
   2807 (0.5.1) Changes since version 0.5.0
   2808 
   2809   ++ New features:
   2810 
   2811   * Possible to run as a user process under Linux.
   2812 
   2813   * Preliminary support for cross platform packed structs.
   2814 
   2815   * ARP timer now implemented.
   2816 
   2817   ++ Bugfixes:
   2818 
   2819   * TCP output queue length was badly initialized when opening
   2820     connections.
   2821 
   2822   * TCP delayed ACKs were not sent correctly.
   2823 
   2824   * Explicit initialization of BSS segment variables.
   2825 
   2826   * read() in BSD socket library could drop data.
   2827 
   2828   * Problems with memory alignment.
   2829 
   2830   * Situations when all TCP buffers were used could lead to
   2831     starvation.
   2832 
   2833   * TCP MSS option wasn't parsed correctly.
   2834 
   2835   * Problems with UDP checksum calculation.
   2836 
   2837   * IP multicast address tests had endianess problems.
   2838 
   2839   * ARP requests had wrong destination hardware address.
   2840 
   2841   ++ Other changes:
   2842 
   2843   * struct eth_addr changed from u16_t[3] array to u8_t[6].
   2844 
   2845   * A ->linkoutput() member was added to struct netif.
   2846 
   2847   * TCP and UDP ->dest_* struct members where changed to ->remote_*.
   2848 
   2849   * ntoh* macros are now null definitions for big endian CPUs.
   2850 
   2851 (0.5.0) Changes since version 0.4.2
   2852 
   2853   ++ New features:
   2854 
   2855   * Redesigned operating system emulation layer to make porting easier.
   2856 
   2857   * Better control over TCP output buffers.
   2858 
   2859   * Documenation added.
   2860 
   2861   ++ Bugfixes:
   2862 
   2863   * Locking issues in buffer management.
   2864 
   2865   * Bugfixes in the sequential API.
   2866 
   2867   * IP forwarding could cause memory leakage. This has been fixed.
   2868 
   2869   ++ Other changes:
   2870 
   2871   * Directory structure somewhat changed; the core/ tree has been
   2872     collapsed.
   2873 
   2874 (0.4.2) Changes since version 0.4.1
   2875 
   2876   ++ New features:
   2877 
   2878   * Experimental ARP implementation added.
   2879 
   2880   * Skeleton Ethernet driver added.
   2881 
   2882   * Experimental BSD socket API library added.
   2883 
   2884   ++ Bugfixes:
   2885 
   2886   * In very intense situations, memory leakage could occur. This has
   2887     been fixed.
   2888 
   2889   ++ Other changes:
   2890 
   2891   * Variables named "data" and "code" have been renamed in order to
   2892     avoid name conflicts in certain compilers.
   2893 
   2894   * Variable++ have in appliciable cases been translated to ++variable
   2895     since some compilers generate better code in the latter case.
   2896 
   2897 (0.4.1) Changes since version 0.4
   2898 
   2899   ++ New features:
   2900 
   2901   * TCP: Connection attempts time out earlier than data
   2902     transmissions. Nagle algorithm implemented. Push flag set on the
   2903     last segment in a burst.
   2904 
   2905   * UDP: experimental support for UDP-Lite extensions.
   2906 
   2907   ++ Bugfixes:
   2908 
   2909   * TCP: out of order segments were in some cases handled incorrectly,
   2910     and this has now been fixed. Delayed acknowledgements was broken
   2911     in 0.4, has now been fixed. Binding to an address that is in use
   2912     now results in an error. Reset connections sometimes hung an
   2913     application; this has been fixed.
   2914 
   2915   * Checksum calculation sometimes failed for chained pbufs with odd
   2916     lengths. This has been fixed.
   2917 
   2918   * API: a lot of bug fixes in the API. The UDP API has been improved
   2919     and tested. Error reporting and handling has been
   2920     improved. Logical flaws and race conditions for incoming TCP
   2921     connections has been found and removed.
   2922 
   2923   * Memory manager: alignment issues. Reallocating memory sometimes
   2924     failed, this has been fixed.
   2925 
   2926   * Generic library: bcopy was flawed and has been fixed.
   2927 
   2928   ++ Other changes:
   2929 
   2930   * API: all datatypes has been changed from generic ones such as
   2931     ints, to specified ones such as u16_t. Functions that return
   2932     errors now have the correct type (err_t).
   2933 
   2934   * General: A lot of code cleaned up and debugging code removed. Many
   2935     portability issues have been fixed.
   2936 
   2937   * The license was changed; the advertising clause was removed.
   2938 
   2939   * C64 port added.
   2940 
   2941   * Thanks: Huge thanks go to Dagan Galarneau, Horst Garnetzke, Petri
   2942     Kosunen, Mikael Caleres, and Frits Wilmink for reporting and
   2943     fixing bugs!
   2944 
   2945 (0.4) Changes since version 0.3.1
   2946 
   2947   * Memory management has been radically changed; instead of
   2948     allocating memory from a shared heap, memory for objects that are
   2949     rapidly allocated and deallocated is now kept in pools. Allocation
   2950     and deallocation from those memory pools is very fast. The shared
   2951     heap is still present but is used less frequently.
   2952 
   2953   * The memory, memory pool, and packet buffer subsystems now support
   2954     4-, 2-, or 1-byte alignment.
   2955 
   2956   * "Out of memory" situations are handled in a more robust way.
   2957 
   2958   * Stack usage has been reduced.
   2959 
   2960   * Easier configuration of lwIP parameters such as memory usage,
   2961     TTLs, statistics gathering, etc. All configuration parameters are
   2962     now kept in a single header file "lwipopts.h".
   2963 
   2964   * The directory structure has been changed slightly so that all
   2965     architecture specific files are kept under the src/arch
   2966     hierarchy.
   2967 
   2968   * Error propagation has been improved, both in the protocol modules
   2969     and in the API.
   2970 
   2971   * The code for the RTXC architecture has been implemented, tested
   2972     and put to use.
   2973 
   2974   * Bugs have been found and corrected in the TCP, UDP, IP, API, and
   2975     the Internet checksum modules.
   2976 
   2977   * Bugs related to porting between a 32-bit and a 16-bit architecture
   2978     have been found and corrected.
   2979 
   2980   * The license has been changed slightly to conform more with the
   2981     original BSD license, including the advertisement clause.
   2982 
   2983 (0.3.1) Changes since version 0.3
   2984 
   2985   * Fix of a fatal bug in the buffer management. Pbufs with allocated
   2986     RAM never returned the RAM when the pbuf was deallocated.
   2987 
   2988   * TCP congestion control, window updates and retransmissions did not
   2989     work correctly. This has now been fixed.
   2990 
   2991   * Bugfixes in the API.
   2992 
   2993 (0.3) Changes since version 0.2
   2994 
   2995   * New and improved directory structure. All include files are now
   2996     kept in a dedicated include/ directory.
   2997 
   2998   * The API now has proper error handling. A new function,
   2999     netconn_err(), now returns an error code for the connection in
   3000     case of errors.
   3001 
   3002   * Improvements in the memory management subsystem. The system now
   3003     keeps a pointer to the lowest free memory block. A new function,
   3004     mem_malloc2() tries to allocate memory once, and if it fails tries
   3005     to free some memory and retry the allocation.
   3006 
   3007   * Much testing has been done with limited memory
   3008     configurations. lwIP now does a better job when overloaded.
   3009 
   3010   * Some bugfixes and improvements to the buffer (pbuf) subsystem.
   3011 
   3012   * Many bugfixes in the TCP code:
   3013 
   3014     - Fixed a bug in tcp_close().
   3015 
   3016     - The TCP receive window was incorrectly closed when out of
   3017       sequence segments was received. This has been fixed.
   3018 
   3019     - Connections are now timed-out of the FIN-WAIT-2 state.
   3020 
   3021     - The initial congestion window could in some cases be too
   3022       large. This has been fixed.
   3023 
   3024     - The retransmission queue could in some cases be screwed up. This
   3025       has been fixed.
   3026 
   3027     - TCP RST flag now handled correctly.
   3028 
   3029     - Out of sequence data was in some cases never delivered to the
   3030       application. This has been fixed.
   3031 
   3032     - Retransmitted segments now contain the correct acknowledgment
   3033       number and advertised window.
   3034 
   3035     - TCP retransmission timeout backoffs are not correctly computed
   3036       (ala BSD). After a number of retransmissions, TCP now gives up
   3037       the connection.
   3038 
   3039   * TCP connections now are kept on three lists, one for active
   3040     connections, one for listening connections, and one for
   3041     connections that are in TIME-WAIT. This greatly speeds up the fast
   3042     timeout processing for sending delayed ACKs.
   3043 
   3044   * TCP now provides proper feedback to the application when a
   3045     connection has been successfully set up.
   3046 
   3047   * More comments have been added to the code. The code has also been
   3048     somewhat cleaned up.
