Relevant cc65 changes...
General:
- The compiler generates "extended" dependency info (like gcc) so there's no need for postprocessing whatsoever :-)
- The linker is very pernickety regarding the ordering of cmdline options so a custom linker rule is necessary :-(
Apple2:
- The various memory usage scenarios aren't specified anymore via separate linker configs but via defines overriding default values in the builtin linker config.
Atari:
- The builtin linker config allows to override the start addr so there no more need for a custom linker config.
- The C library comes with POSIX directory access. So there's no more need for for a custom coding.
CBM:
- The C library comes with POSIX directory access. So there's no more need for for a custom coding.
Either I found and fixed a severe bug in PSOCK_READTO() or I misunderstood something completely. To me PSOCK_READTO() is supposed to return if either the supplied character was read or if the user supplied buffer is exhausted - sor far so good.
However if the latter occurs up to now PSOCK_READTO() was continuing to process characters already read from the network (aka present in the uIP buffer) in order to check if the supplied character was found there and adjust the return value accordingly. But this means that the character processed this way were lost forever for the caller as the next call to PSOCK_READTO() would continue to read past the characters processed this way.
Therefore I removed that character processing altogether. So now if the user supplied buffer is exhausted before the supplied character is found the next call to PSOCK_READTO() starts exactly where previous call left off.

While it may very well be beneficial to have explict uiplib_ip4addrconv() and uiplib_ip6addrconv() available for IPv6 builds I'm having a hard time to see the point in uiplib_ip6addrconv() for IPv4 builds.
Unrelated to the above the dispatching of uiplib_ipaddrconv() to either uiplib_ip4addrconv() or uiplib_ip6addrconv() can be accomplished by the C preprocessor only thus avoiding the size/speed overhead of an additional callframe.
This is a major change to how the main tick interrupt is handled on
the mc1322x platforms. Instead of using two timer resources, TMR0 and
RTC, this patch unifies all the timers to use the RTC. This is enabled by
implementing etimers as scheduled rtimers. The main advantage (aside
from freeing TMR0 for general use) is have the Contiki timebase come
from the same source that will be used for sleeping and wakeup.
Better match user expectations by allowing to download plain disk images and configure the IP settings afterwards on the target machine - then most likely leveraging DHCP. This works for the users with the most usual Ethernet adapter and settings - which are now pre-configured in default.cfg's. Only the few users with non-default Ethernet adapter and/or settings are required to download a custom contiki.cfg and inject it manually into their disk image files.
