Some calls to `rpl_set_root` select a hardcoded DODAG ID
(0x1111, 0x1100, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0x0011)
This is against what RFC 6550 says. We change these calls
to select a DODAG ID corresponding to a routable v6 address
corresponding to the root
would create a header with the current packet information.
This allows sicslowpan to calculate the max payload size without
consuming a sequence number or clearing/restoring the packet buffer.
like /tools/mspsim.
This is a very simple modification that affects a very large number of files in Contiki: Cooja,
/platform/cooja, Collect-view, Coffe-manager, and Cooja simulation files (.csc).
I've gone through Contiki to update all references I could find. Nevertheless, this commit will likely
break external dependencies, like saved Cooja simulation files.
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.
This loads Makefile.target into Makefile so we can check for TARGET==sky
when building this. Compilation for sky fails without it.

declarations of functions for setting and getting a node ID number, a
functionality that exists on many platforms. Since this functionality
was not considered part of the Contiki core, each platform defined its
own node-id.h file. This commit attempts to clean this up by
collecting the node-id.h into a core/sys/node-id.h file that replaces
the old node-id.h files from the platform directories.
* Simple HTTP webservice with support for both receiving and sending HTTP requests.
* json-ws example that optionally push sensor data to COSM over IPv6.
- Structural modification of RPL data storage.
- Support multiple gateways (multiple DODAG-ID with a unique InstanceID)
- Use Lollipop counters
- Add leaf-only configuration option for RPL
Bugfix :
- Correctly send "Grounded" flag in DIO
