Adam Dunkels writes on 2/5/2017 on the Contiki mailing list:
[...] the original idea was that the application could just point the uip_appdata pointer to wherever the data was, but we then changed it so that the data actually had to be copied into the uip_aligned_buf buffer. So, yes, the network device driver should only need to read from this buffer. [...]
This change removes comments on the possibility of uip_appdata pointing somewhere outside the uip_aligned_buf. And it removes code in the SLIP drivers not necessary anymore.
Additionally it makes code in a SLIP driver optional that takes care of the Microsoft-specific CLIENT / SERVER / CLIENTSERVER chat.
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.
char is signed but uip_buf is unsigned
spi.h:
casted unused values to void
autostart.c:
autostart.h:
The array itself should be const but the processes pointed to
should not.
profile-aggregates.c:
sizeof returns unsigned long on my platform
