/*
* This is an example of how to write a network device driver ("packet
* driver") for Contiki. A packet driver is a regular Contiki process
* that does two things:
* # Checks for incoming packets and delivers those to the TCP/IP stack
* # Provides an output function that transmits packets
*
* The output function is registered with the Contiki TCP/IP stack,
* whereas incoming packets must be checked inside a Contiki process.
* We use the same process for checking for incoming packets and for
* registering the output function.
*/
/*
* We include the "contiki-net.h" file to get all the network functions.
*/

* We declare the process that we use to register with the TCP/IP stack,
* and to check for incoming packets.

/*
* Next, we define the function that transmits packets. This function
* is called from the TCP/IP stack when a packet is to be transmitted.
* The packet is located in the uip_buf[] buffer, and the length of the
* packet is in the uip_len variable.

* function returns the length of the incoming packet, and we store
