This patch removes a defunct EEPROM implementation from the native
platform and provides a new EEPROM implementation for the native cpu.
The previous implementation appears to be vestigal.
This is useful for testing code which uses the EEPROM without running
the code on the actual hardware.
By default the code will create a new temporary file as the EEPROM
backing, reinitializing each time. If you would like to preserve the
EEPROM contents or specify a specific EEPROM file to use, you can set the
`CONTIKI_EEPROM` environment variable to the name of the EEPROM file you
wish to use instead. If it already exists, its contents will be used.
If it does not already exist, it will be created and initialized by
filling it with `0xFF`---just like a real EEPROM.
A new example is also included, which was used to verify the correctness
of the implementation. It can easily be used to verify the EEPROM
implementations of other targets.
This patch enables automatic route setup and cleanup when
starting and stopping the minimal-net target on OS X.
Both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported.
Using the minimal-net target on OS X was absolute hell
before I came up with this patch. Now it is painless.
The minimal-net target, as currently written, wakes up the
CPU every millisecond to check for packets, and will only
react in real-time to input from stdin. If you are running
this on a laptop battery, your battery will quickly drain.
This change allows the CPU to idle when there is literally
nothing to do while still being responsive to input from
stein and/or incoming packets. This fix should significantly
improve performance while significantly improving power
usage. Win-win.
Also added `_xassert()` implementation so that the contiki-
provided `assert()` macro will work properly when used
on this platform.
Setting UIP_CONF_IPV6 to zero from the make build command line is
something that seems like it should ensure that IPv6 is disabled, but in
fact it actually *enables* IPv6. This seems counter intuitive, so this
patch changes the behavior of the makefiles to handle this case
properly.
functions for converting between host and network byte order. These
names are the de facto standard names for this functionality because
of the original BSD TCP/IP implementation. But they cause problems for
uIP/Contiki: some platforms define these names themselves (Mac OS,
most notably), causing compilation problems for Contiki on those
platforms.
This commit changes all htons to uip_htons instead. Same goes for
htonl, ntohs, and ntohl. All-caps versions as well.
