core/lib/settings: Generalized settings manager to work on any platform
2013-05-18 12:03:09 -07:00
Robert Quattlebaum b8c0f2de6c cpu/native: Add file-backed simulated EEPROM to native cpu.
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.

Robert Quattlebaum 28a1e40ebd core/lib/settings: Generalized Settings Manager to work on any platform
This commit moves the Settings Manager from the AVR codebase
into the Contiki core library. Any platform that implements
the Contiki EEPROM API can now use the Settings Manager's
key-value store for storing their persistent configuration info.

The Settings Manager is a EEPROM-based key-value store. Keys
are 16-bit integers and values may be up to 16,383 bytes long.
It is intended to be used to store configuration-related information,
like network settings, radio channels, etc.

 * Robust data format which requires no initialization.
 * Supports multiple values with the same key.
 * Data can be appended without erasing EEPROM.
 * Max size of settings data can be easily increased in the future,
   as long as it doesn't overlap with application data.

The format was inspired by the [OLPC manufacturing data format][].

Since the beginning of EEPROM often contains application-specific
information, the best place to store settings is at the end of EEPROM
(the "top"). Because we are starting at the end of EEPROM, it makes
sense to grow the list of key-value pairs downward, toward the start of
EEPROM.

Each key-value pair is stored in memory in the following format:

Order    | Size     | Name         | Description
--------:|---------:|--------------|-------------------------------
       0 |        2 | `key`        | 16-bit key
      -2 |        1 | `size_check` | One's-complement of next byte
      -3 |   1 or 2 | `size`       | The size of `value`, in bytes
-4 or -5 | variable | `value`      | Value associated with `key`

The end of the key-value pairs is denoted by the first invalid entry.
An invalid entry has any of the following attributes:

 * The `size_check` byte doesn't match the one's compliment of the
   `size` byte (or `size_low` byte).
 * The key has a value of 0x0000.

Robert Quattlebaum 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.
