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.

Adam Dunkels 944537fccf Removed all old RCS tags in the Contiki source tree. Those RCS tags are not used any more, as we are now using git to manage the Contiki source tree 2012-10-26 15:54:49 +02:00
Nicholas J Humfrey efab964451 Converted u8_t to uint8_t and u16_t to uint16_t in the apps directory. 2012-02-21 08:33:25 -05:00
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.

oliverschmidt 614fa668cd Removed SELFSTART_PROCESS as AUTOSTART_ENABLE generally serves that purpose - and AUTOSTART_ENABLE gets already set as required :-) 2008-02-08 22:48:28 +00:00

matsutsuka 4d046ef389 Window size has been made customizable, and widget placement is modified to fit in smaller screen size.
If UIP_UDP is turned off, iut doesn't lookup DNS (i.e. doesn't use resolv.c).

matsutsuka 582a7476d4 *-dsc.c files have been changed to remove forward reference for struct_icon variable, bacause it is strange that this variable is used wholly inside the C source file and declared extern for the forward reference. 2007-09-06 01:36:10 +00:00
