adamdunkels ca0417a923 Added the MAC layer callback functionality so that the Rime network layer gets information from the MAC about the status of sent packets: were they successfully transmitted, or was there a collisions? How many retries were there? 2010-02-23 18:38:05 +00:00
adamdunkels f10eedab3e Added debug printout 2010-02-23 18:37:15 +00:00
adamdunkels 2d13fecea7 Improved backoff management: timer is now doubled on every transmission, until the using module calls the neighbor_discovery_start() function again. Don't cancel the transmission even if a lower value arrives (this fixes a problem with multi-hop ETX propagaion). 2010-02-23 18:36:50 +00:00
adamdunkels 0eade2886c Better loop handling: when a loop is detected, the neighbor to which the packet was originally sent gets an inflated ETX; made sure that collect without announcments work; increased timeouts, to work nicer in larger networks 2010-02-23 18:35:23 +00:00
adamdunkels a4d9d6651b Added the option to specify the old value to observers so that they can determine if the announcement should be sent out quicklier than otherwise 2010-02-23 18:32:44 +00:00
adamdunkels b746b7fc06 Reworked the Rime/Chameleon interface so that packets now always hit Rime before Chameleon. Chameleon is now only called by Rime. This makes packet sniffing easier, and allows for sniffing packets after their header has been processed by Chameleon, thereby making per-packet power profiling much easier to implement 2010-02-23 18:29:53 +00:00
adamdunkels f49ebfe1c4 Temporarily disabled rime route udp because it breaks with newest MAC interfaces 2010-02-18 21:53:08 +00:00
adamdunkels e34eb54960 A work-in-progress rework of the Contiki MAC and radio layers. The
main ideas are:

* Separates the Contiki low-layer network stack into four layers:
  network (e.g. sicslowpan / rime), Medium Access Control MAC
  (e.g. CSMA), Radio Duty Cycling RDC (e.g. ContikiMAC, X-MAC), and
  radio (e.g. cc2420).
* Introduces a new way to configure the network stack. Four #defines
  that specify what mechanism/protocol/driver to use at the four
  layers: NETSTACK_CONF_NETWORK, NETSTACK_CONF_MAC, NETSTACK_CONF_RDC,
  NETSTACK_CONF_RADIO.
* Adds a callback mechanism to inform the MAC and network layers about
  the fate of a transmitted packet: if the packet was not possible to
  transmit, the cause of the failure is reported, and if the packets
  was successfully transmitted, the number of tries before it was
  finally transmitted is reported.
* NULL-protocols at both the MAC and RDC layers: nullmac and nullrdc,
  which can be used when MAC and RDC functionality is not needed.
* Extends the radio API with three new functions that enable more
  efficient radio duty cycling protocols: channel check, pending
  packet, and receiving packet.
* New initialization mechanism, which takes advantage of the NETSTACK
  #defines.

fros4943 9b20f11cd8 chameleon returns 1 only on successful rime_output() 2009-11-13 09:14:52 +00:00
fros4943 583dd11c55 rime_output() now returns RIME_OK or RIME_ERR depending on the MAC return value.
this patch may affect Rime sniffers running on top of MAC protocols that do not yet return generic MAC return values

adamdunkels 56218aba3b Made rimeaddr_t pointers const where they should be. 2009-11-08 19:40:16 +00:00
adamdunkels 5aab2eb77d A simple addition with significant performance implications:
sicslowpan tags TCP packets with the PACKETBUF_ATTR_PACKET_TYPE_STREAM
flag, which makes the underlying power-saving MAC layer keep the radio
on for some time after transmitting the packet. This allows reply
packets to be processed directly, significantly increasing TCP latency
and throughput.

adamdunkels fe30886b37 Added functionality for decaying routes: when a packet is sent over a route, it is decayed.
