adamdunkels 3ffcff0656 Added mechanisms for explicit de-synchronization of synchronized neighbors. Added link-layer ACKs. Fixed bugs with MAC-layer interaction. Now seems to work somewhat (didn't work at all before, in some cases), but there are still problems with packet loss. 2010-10-20 15:23:43 +00:00
adamdunkels 5585d72c86 A simple but substantial change: uIP used the htons()/HTONS() macro
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.

adamdunkels 34cba78ca8 Bugfix: bump advertisements only when a parent changes, not because of an upstream parent change 2010-10-19 07:34:29 +00:00
nifi e2b4956a7f Bug fix: release the packet and notify the sender if RDC returned an error 2010-10-14 19:08:39 +00:00
oliverschmidt 2f89e69ff7 Fixed build for platforms which use the default value for QUEUEBUF_NUM. 2010-10-12 19:51:28 +00:00
adamdunkels 020da4e8ba Added a function for obtaining beacon intervals 2010-10-11 23:44:24 +00:00
adamdunkels ec716ea62d Do not reduce transmission interval, unless explicitly told so with the bump flag 2010-10-11 23:43:01 +00:00
adamdunkels 37adf130b4 Rewrite of the congestion logic. A node now report it being congested
when half the transmission queue is full. When a neighbor is heard to
be congested, the rtmetric of that node is inflated to avoid sending
more traffic in its direction.

Fixed problems with beacon intervals: intervals are now not reduced
when a path gets significantly worse, only when they get better.

adamdunkels d821ba5e22 Added a lifetime for link estimates: if they are too old, they are
reset so that a new probing period can produce more up-to-date
estimates. Added a congestion mechanism whereby a neighbor can be
marked as being congested for a period of time, during which the ETX
for the neighbor will be artificially inflated.
2010-10-11 23:38:46 +00:00
adamdunkels 5eb4a0fe8d Rewrote the initial link estimate logic: link estimates are now
computed only over the actual samples, not over the entire
buffer. Also, the initial link estimate is much more conservative now
(16 transmissions) to favor links that have been probed, and which
therefore are likely to have better ETXs.

adamdunkels 0cabe483c3 Don't call sink recv function for zero-size packets, since these most likely are link estimate probes or keepalive packets. Explicitly set eseqno to zero when opening a new connection. 2010-10-07 15:52:28 +00:00
adamdunkels ad35c54473 Bugfix: when a node's rtmetric was lower than SIGNIFICANT_RTMETRIC_PARENT_CHANGE, its beacon timers would always be bumped to its lowest value 2010-10-05 20:06:47 +00:00
adamdunkels 52e9a6f1fb Turned the DRAW_TREE debug flag off by default 2010-10-04 22:36:47 +00:00
adamdunkels 65d640ac53 Several bugfixes to the proactive link estimate maintenance code, which is now enabled by default. Simplified DRAW_TREE code for drawing routing graph in Cooja. Added routing metric penalty to parents that are congested or that drop packets. 2010-10-04 20:27:50 +00:00
adamdunkels 212e73faa6 Removed old netsim code. Added a function for obtaining the packet attributes of a queuebuf packet. 2010-10-04 20:26:01 +00:00
joxe 4f3fc1c404 fixed xmac to use new channel check define name 2010-10-03 22:46:53 +00:00
adamdunkels ceebd7020a Bugfix: the return value sometimes was wrong when a collision was detected. 2010-10-03 20:39:24 +00:00
adamdunkels ae88ed04f1 Moved the definition of the channel check rate used by the radio duty
cycling layer. This definition was previously held in net/mac/mac.h,
with the name MAC_CONF_CHANNEL_CHECK_RATE. But since the rate is used
by the radio duty cycling layer, it makes more sense to change its
name to reflect this. Also, the configuration option should be tied to
the netstack configuration instead.

So the new configuration option is called
NETSTACK_CONF_RDC_CHANNEL_CHECK_RATE.

adamdunkels 40583fe112 Removed the polite announcement code, since it was not used, and enabled the broadcast announcement code by default. Increased the default intervals for broadcast announcements. 2010-10-03 20:10:22 +00:00
adamdunkels 605392522f Bugfixes and improvements: rtmetrics are now 16-bit clean. Added experimental feature that proactively probes neighbors that have not yet been tried out, in order to get an initial ETX for them. 2010-10-03 20:08:44 +00:00

count.

nifi e242fb28bf Reverted radio API change in CC2420 (not yet fully integrated with Contiki core) 2010-09-23 08:26:06 +00:00
adamdunkels eed22a6f3c A number of changes to the collect code:
* Added an optional "keep alive" mechanism whereby an idle network is
periodically probed by dummy packets to maintain a recent quality
metric when there is no traffic.
* Bugfix in when new routing metrics should be advertised
* Rewrote the ACK logic so that a queuebuf is not allocated for each
ack, only for those acks generated by the sink node.
* Updated the wrap-around logic for sequence numbers: when a sequence
number wraps, it won't go back to 0. Instead, it wraps to 128. This
allows us to understand when a node has rebooted: when its seqno is <
128, it has recently rebooted.

adamdunkels 18e31f33b9 Minor tweaks. Removed debug output from CVS. 2010-09-14 06:48:36 +00:00
nifi 095f700b63 Moved down inclusion of rtimer-arch.h to allow rtimer_clock_t to be used in rtimer-arch.h 2010-09-13 20:46:02 +00:00
adamdunkels eb58968459 Added a timer to each phase structure that keeps track of for how long
a particular receiver has not ACKed packets. After some time
(currently 16 seconds), the sender will begin sending full strobe
periods again.
2010-09-13 13:39:05 +00:00
adamdunkels 3ae774c91a Added a way to for specifying lists as parts of structs. These lists
must be initialized with a special LIST_STRUCT_INIT() call before
using.

adamdunkels 591766e663 Significant improvements to the Collect protocol:
* Loop detection and untangling. Now uses in-band loop detection that
  works.

* Link quality estimation. Now starts with a conservative /
  pessimistic estimate for new links.

* Retransmissions. MAC layer and network layer retransmissions are now
  decoupled.

* Loss handling. Deals better with losses now.

* Concurrent applications. Each connection now maintains its own
  neighbor table with separated cost to sink estimates for each
  connection.

oliverschmidt a0b8927777 Allow to exit the process owning the foreground window by pressing ctrl-c. This is especially useful if there's no closebutton on the window frames (or no windows at all). 2010-09-09 20:21:26 +00:00
adamdunkels 4e0744954a Rewrite of important parts of the Collect logic: link estimation
calculation and parent selection.  This fixes a severe bug that caused
loops when packets were erroneously retransmitted due to ACK loss.

oliverschmidt 89f6235c13 Using wherex() to determine the length of the string printed with cputsn() fails if the right edge of the screen was reached as wherex() then returns 0.
Therefore we rather count the chars actually printed in cputsn() and return that value thus avoiding usage of wherex() in those scenarios altogether.
