adamdunkels 2647f879c2 Bugfix: select the best parent if current parent is NULL 2010-06-14 06:54:47 +00:00
nifi f6e0b46f38 * Made Chameleon header processing module configurable (CHAMELEON_CONF_MODULE)
* Removed the unused init function from header processing modules
* Added option CHAMELEON_CONF_WITH_MAC_LINK_ADDRESSES to specify that
  MAC link addresses should be used instead of Chameleon's own encoding
  of sender and receiver. This avoids encoding the link addresses twice
  when the MAC RDC has its own addresses.

adamdunkels a8d8b6d31d Improved parent management: parent neighbor is retained until a better neighbor is found (with 1 ETX less than parent). Don't drop parent neighbors when loop is detected (loops are transient anyway). 2010-04-01 10:45:21 +00:00
adamdunkels d7457bc340 Improved parent management: parent neighbor is retained until a better neighbor is found (with 1 ETX less than parent). Don't drop parent neighbors when loop is detected (loops are transient anyway). 2010-04-01 10:03:19 +00:00

nifi 9508d2c4d7 * Added configurable default number of transmissions for CSMA to use when not specified using packetbuf attributes (CSMA_CONF_MAX_MAC_TRANSMISSIONS).
* Renamed packetbuf attribute PACKETBUF_ATTR_MAX_MAC_REXMIT to PACKETBUF_ATTR_MAX_MAC_TRANSMISSIONS where value 0 (attribute not set) means that default number of transmissions should be used.
2010-03-26 12:29:29 +00:00
adamdunkels a4f9e62295 Added a parameter to collect_open() that specifies whether or not the node should be a router for packets, or only an originator of packets. Updated the collect module to the new annoucement API. 2010-03-25 08:51:07 +00:00
adamdunkels 2559e27414 API change to the announcement module: an annoucement can now be registered without a value. Such announcements are never transmitted to neighbors, until the announcement's value is set. 2010-03-25 08:49:56 +00:00

adamdunkels 7165a3866f Significant rework of the Contiki data collection protocol:
* the new version makes use of MAC-layer feedback so that bad paths
  can be identified quicker and then avoided.

* the new code uses transport layer ACKs that contain feedback from
  the collect protocol: when a packet cannot be forwarded due to lack
  of resources, the ACK contains a flag that indicates that the packet
  could not be forwarded. ACKs also contain the routing metric of the
  sender, which improves agility in face of rapid path changes.

* loop detection and management has been improved: with higher path
  metric agility, the system is more prone to short-lived routing
  loops. Instead of dropping looping packets, the new version adjusts
  the routing metric for the routes that exhibit loops so that the
  risk for future loops is reduced.

* make use of packet attributes to inform the MAC layer of how many
  times packets should be retransmitted.
2010-02-28 09:18:01 +00:00
nifi c20047f657 Changed the network stack to use different structures for the different layers (network_driver, mac_driver, rdc_driver, radio_driver). This helps to avoid incorrect configuration. 2010-02-23 20:09:11 +00:00
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. If the route is not refreshed within four packets (with the route_refresh() function, which is called when a new packet arrives), the route is dropped. A route can be decayed at most once per second 2009-05-10 21:08:01 +00:00

adamdunkels c83c5c4c55 Removed automatic refresh of routes from the route_lookup() function and moved it into an explicit route_refresh() function. The previous behaviour was dangerous, since it meant that even bad routes that someone was looking for were considered fresh.

zhitao 0a12098bd5 avoid ping pong packets during route disruption 2009-03-06 17:33:59 +00:00
zhitao 64badeb282 bugfix: use memcpy() to get attributes longer than a byte properly written to packet header 2009-03-05 13:51:28 +00:00
zhitao 08b2315f41 bugfix: put up busy forwarding flag only after next hop found 2009-03-04 08:59:32 +00:00
fros4943 f701615afa bugfix: remember active transmissions (sender side) instead of last received packets (receiving side). allows several nodes sending to a single receiver.
+ added function for checking if runicast is currently transmitting (non-acked) data

adamdunkels 9816f49fe6 Changed listen and transmit energy attributes so that they are named _TIME rather than _ENERGY, to indicate that they contain the time during which the radio was switched on and not the energy 2009-03-02 22:00:41 +00:00
adamdunkels 78591a003f Minor documentation update 2009-03-02 21:56:16 +00:00
adamdunkels 45e32894a0 Bugfix: backwards definition of MIN macro (quite embarassing) 2009-03-02 11:22:09 +00:00
adamdunkels aa2f7a3399 Made polite announcement times configurable, added missing right-brace 2009-03-01 10:43:57 +00:00
adamdunkels 3adf8e5807 Call output packet sniffers after the MAC has sent the packet 2009-03-01 10:29:50 +00:00
adamdunkels 2aedc8490d Compile only if timesynch is enabled 2009-02-20 21:23:22 +00:00
fros4943 97f76126e6 remembering last received packet id to avoid multiple recv callbacks for the same retransmitted packet (but still sending back acks of course) 2009-02-17 12:40:18 +00:00
adamdunkels 36bb3ece64 If no neighbor is found, we listen for announcements. Cleaned up debug output. 2009-02-16 01:18:53 +00:00
adamdunkels 585620c102 Reverted the recent change from random_rand() to rand(). It turned out that
since libc rand() returns a signed int, there were frequently problems with
timer values wrapping. By reverting to random_rand(), we can provide a
random generator that returns an unsigned and the timer problems are solved.

adamdunkels 9d75781a78 Added packet attributes for energy spent on a packet (RIMEBUF_ATTR_LISTEN_ENERGY and RIMEBUF_ATTR_TRANSMIT_ENERGY) 2009-02-10 23:51:12 +00:00
adamdunkels b15198b9a8 Bugfix: the Chameleon header parser modules should not clear the packet attributes, because the MAC or radio layers may have added attributes already 2009-02-10 23:49:58 +00:00
adamdunkels e1ef13dad6 Reduced the size of the packet cache from four to two to avoid falseley dismissing fresh packets (the header field that hold sequence numbers is only two bits wide, hence all sequence numbers fits in a four-entry cache...) 2009-02-10 00:44:50 +00:00
adamdunkels 6c95bd895a Added default initialization of polite announcements. Not sure where the best place for this is, but this at least allow us to start experimenting with this. 2009-02-09 22:05:33 +00:00
