Updated Contiki X-MAC to use hardware acks, which allows for tighter timing and results in a lower duty cycle. Hardware acks also make X-MAC more robust against packet losses, as there is a direct way for the CSMA layer to detect loss of data packets. Before, Contiki X-MAC only detected loss of strobes.

Rework of the CSMA layer: instead of using one timer per packet, the module now uses one central timer and a queue of outgoing packets. This helps to keep packets in order, which is extremely useful for TCP transfers, and reduces the amount of congestion since consecutive packets now are spaced in time if there is a collision. Based on the observations and ideas of Simon Duquennoy.

nullrdc (previously nullrdc-framer) is now a RDC implementation that

used in the same way as contikimac, xmac, etc.
nullrdc-noframer (previously nullrdc) is a null RDC implementation

Two major changes:
...
* Low-power streaming. Experimental support for a low-power mode which
allows rapid exchange of packets with a 16% duty cycle. Does not
seem to function correctly yet though.
* Phase locking. When the phase of a neighbor has been detected, the
sender assumes that the neighbor will keeps it phase and does not
send more strobes than necessary to hit the receiver's channel
check - even if the receiver does not acknowledge the reception of
the strobes when it should have been awake. Instead, the sender
stops strobing and tries again at a later time.

A work-in-progress rework of the Contiki MAC and radio layers. The
...
main ideas are:
* Separates the Contiki low-layer network stack into four layers:
network (e.g. sicslowpan / rime), Medium Access Control MAC
(e.g. CSMA), Radio Duty Cycling RDC (e.g. ContikiMAC, X-MAC), and
radio (e.g. cc2420).
* Introduces a new way to configure the network stack. Four #defines
that specify what mechanism/protocol/driver to use at the four
layers: NETSTACK_CONF_NETWORK, NETSTACK_CONF_MAC, NETSTACK_CONF_RDC,
NETSTACK_CONF_RADIO.
* Adds a callback mechanism to inform the MAC and network layers about
the fate of a transmitted packet: if the packet was not possible to
transmit, the cause of the failure is reported, and if the packets
was successfully transmitted, the number of tries before it was
finally transmitted is reported.
* NULL-protocols at both the MAC and RDC layers: nullmac and nullrdc,
which can be used when MAC and RDC functionality is not needed.
* Extends the radio API with three new functions that enable more
efficient radio duty cycling protocols: channel check, pending
packet, and receiving packet.
* New initialization mechanism, which takes advantage of the NETSTACK
#defines.

ntikiMAC: a new radio duty cycling mechanism that uses a combination
...
of link-layer and MAC-layer mechanisms to achieve a very low power
consumption: during idle listening the radio is switched off between
99.2% and 99.6% of the time. One unicast transmission typically adds
between 0.07% and 1.2% additional radio time, depending on packet
size.
ContikiMAC uses the standard IEEE 802.15.4 message format and adds no
additional headers.
ContikiMAC is simple: it uses periodic two-shot channel sampling
during idle listening to keep the radio on-time down. Transmissions
are done with repeated transmissions until a link-layer ACK is
received.

This is an initial commit of an implementation of the Chameleon
...
architecture for the Rime stack for Contiki. The Chameleon
architecture separates the header processing from the Rime protocol
logic. Instead of having each protocol create its own part of the
packet header, protocols use packet attributes. Before sending a
packet, a special Chameleon header processing module creates a packet
header from the packet attributes. The same Chameleon module parses
incoming packets and creates packet attributes from the header.
