61ea7fbb1c RPL DAO timers and management:
* Added a DAO lifetime timer that sends out a new DAO after half the lifetime of the DAO. This allows implementing DAO route soft state that avoids routing tables in the network keeping stale routes for ever.
* Added ways to schedule a new DAO transmission as well as cancelling an active DAO transmit timer, which makes it possible to do nodes that don't send DAOs.

9819c5b5b8 Rewrote the IPv6 route management so that all routes are maintained on a list that is ordered by the time at which the route was accessed. If a new route is added to the system, the oldest route is dropped. 2013-11-22 18:00:47 +01:00

b31e84649a If the 6lowpan layer is currently reassembling a packet, and a non-fragmented packet comes along, this is a sign that one of the fragments were lost (as they normally would arrive back-to-back, in sequence). So we'll grab the non-fragmented packet instead of dropping it. 2013-11-22 15:12:02 +01:00

c1c64dd1cc Received UDP packet was counted twice in statistics, first in udp_input and then again in udp_found.
Fix this to use same logic as in uip.c: valid packet is counted only in udp_found.

c3f62b24c8 Moved ETX management from neighbor-info to rpl-of-etx. Avoids conversions between different fixed point representations, and simplifies neighbor management.

f5307fc01e Bugfix: must set the SICSLOWPAM_MAX_MAC_TRANSMISSIONS attribute after clearing the buffer, otherwise it will not be used for outoing packets. 2013-08-11 14:27:21 +02:00
Adam Dunkels
0aa448f190 6lowpan fragmentation bugfix: the 6lowpan code had an unfortunate
interaction with the behavior of the rdc layer. If the first packet of a
fragment transmission was lost, the remaining packets would get dropped
on reception. Moreover, the reception code contained a bug that
sometimes would cause fragments to be misidentified as fragments. Taken
together, these problems would result in a pathelogical network
breakdown if too many fragmented packets would occur simultaneously.

5993595a8f A number of updates to nullrdc
* add a few rimestats to keep track of sent and received acks
* made a number of configuration options possible to override (ack timing)
* added the logic for sending 802.15.4 link layer ack packets, despite not being able to guarentee the 802.15.4 MAC timing
* increased the number of sequence numbers to keep track of for duplicate filtering

2d50a40643 A default configuraion file for Contiki
The contiki-default-conf.h file is intended as a safe fallback for
a number of configuration options in Contiki, to avoid putting too
much in the individual contiki-conf.h files.

c0a693672c core/net: Added support for "bridge mode".
"Bridge mode" allows devices to more easily send 802.15.4 packets as if
they were a different device. It also turns off any packet filtering
that may be implemented at layer 2. It works by allowing
`PACKETBUF_ADDR_SENDER` to be set earlier in the stack.

This is useful for implementing 6LoWPAN-ethernet bridges.

Enabled via setting `NETSTACK_CONF_BRIDGE_MODE` to 1. Disabled by
default.

f145c17039 core/net/resolv: IPv6 and mDNS ("Bonjour") support. Major refactor.
This patch updates the DNS resolver to support IPv6 and introduces an
improved API for looking up DNS entries. This patch also adds optional
support for mDNS lookups and responses to the DNS resolver.

Here is a quick summary of the changes:

 * Added support for IPv6 lookups.
 * DNS queries now honor record expiration.
 * Added support for mDNS, compatible with "Bonjour".
 * Implemented a new lookup api, `resolv_lookup2()`, which provides
   more information about the state of the record(error, expired,
   looking-up, etc.).

About mDNS/Bonjour Support
--------------------------

This patch adds basic support for mDNS/Bonjour, which allows you to
refer to the name of a device instead of its IP address. This is
incredibly convenient for IPv6 addresses because they tend to be very
long and difficult to remember. It is especially important for
link-local IPv6 addresses, since not all programs support the '%'
notation for indicating a network interface (required on systems with
more than one network interface to disambiguate).

In other words, instead of typing in this:

 * `http://[fe80::58dc:d7ed:a644:628f%en1]/`

You can type this instead:

 * `http://contiki.local/`

Huge improvement, no?

The convenience extends beyond that: this mechanism can be used for
nodes to talk to each other based on their human-readable names instead
of their IPv6 addresses. So instead of a switch on
`aaaa::58dc:d7ed:a644:628f` triggering an actuator on
`aaaa::ed26:19c1:4bd2:f95b`, `light-switch.local` can trigger the
actuator on `living-room-lights.local`.

What you need to do to be able to look up `.local` names on your
workstation depends on a few factors:

 * Your machine needs to be able to send and receive multicast packets
   to and from the LoWPAN. You can do this easily with the Jackdaw
   firmware on an RZUSBStick. If you have a border router, you will need
   it to bridge the mDNS multicast packets across the border.

 * If you are using a Mac, you win. All Apple devices support mDNS
   lookups.

 * If you are using Windows, you can install Apple's Bonjour for Windows
   package. (This may be already installed on your machine if you have
   installed iTunes) After you install this you can easily do `.local`
   lookups.

 * If you are using a Unix machine, you can install Avahi.

The default hostname is set to `contiki.local.`. You can change the
hostname programmatically by calling `resolv_set_hostname()`. You can
change the default hostname by changing `CONTIKI_CONF_DEFAULT_HOSTNAME`.

You may disable mDNS support by setting `RESOLV_CONF_SUPPORTS_MDNS` to
`0`.

---------------------------------

core/net/resolv: `resolv_lookup2()` -> `resolv_lookup()`

Note that this patch should fix several `resolv_lookup()` bugs
that already existed. There were many cases where `resolv_lookup()`
was being called and the IP address ignored, but later code
assumed that the IP address had been fetched... ANYWAY, those
should be fixed now.

---------------------------------

examples/udp-ipv6: Updated client to use MDNS to lookup the server.

Also updated the Cooja regression test simulation.
