This commit attempts remove some long standard confusion in naming and some actual problems that result from the naming confusion. The basic problem is the standard MTU does not include the size of the Ethernet header. For clarity, I changed the naming of most things called MTU to PKTSIZE. For example, CONFIG_NET_ETH_MTU is now CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE. This makes the user interface a little hostile. People thing of an MTU of 1500 bytes, but the corresponding packet is really 1514 bytes (including the 14 byte Ethernet header). A more friendly solution would configure the MTU (as before), but then derive the packet buffer size by adding the MAC header length. Instead, we define the packet buffer size then derive the MTU. The MTU is not common currency in networking. On the wire, the only real issue is the MSS which is derived from MTU by subtracting the IP header and TCP header sizes (for the case of TCP). Now it is derived for the PKTSIZE by subtracting the IP header, the TCP header, and the MAC header sizes. So we should be all good and without the recurring 14 byte error in MTU's and MSS's. Squashed commit of the following: Trivial update to fix some spacing issues. net/: Rename several macros containing _MTU to _PKTSIZE. net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_SLIP_MTU to CONFIG_NET_SLIP_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU.

This value is related to the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit), except
that it includes the size of the link layer header; the payload is
the MSS (Maximum Segment Size).
IPv4 hosts are required to be able to handle an MSS of at least
536 octets, resulting in a minimum buffer size of 536+20+20+14 =
590.
IPv6 hosts are required to be able to handle an MSS of 1220 octets,
resulting in a minimum buffer size of 1220+20+40+14 = 1294
To get an MTU of 1500, for example, you would need packet buffer of
size 1514.

set CONFIG_NET_SLIP_PKTSIZE to 296 as well.
There may be an issue with this setting, however. I see that Linux
uses a MTU of 296 and window of 256, but actually only sends 168
bytes of data: 40 + 128. I believe that is to allow for the 2x
worst cast packet expansion. Ideally we would like to advertise the
256 MSS, but restrict transfers to 128 bytes (possibly by modifying
the MSS value in the TCP connection structure).

Network Loopback Driver: A configuration option to control packet size. Historically, the loopback driver used the largest packet size of all enabled link layer protocols. This permitted packets to be forward via the loopbak device with no major loss of performance. However, in experimenting with configurations where no other link layer protocols were enabled, this means the loopback packet size was set to the smallest possible size, to the SLIP minimum of 296 bytes. This resulted in terrible loopback performance. This commit adds an option to increase the loopback packet size with the option CONFIG_NET_LOOPBACK_PACKETSIZE. The loopback driver packet buffer should be quite large. The larger the loopback packet buffer, the better will be TCP performance of the loopback transfers. The Linux loopback device historically used packet buffers of size 16Kb, but that was increased in recent Linux versions to 64Kb. Those sizes may be excessive for resource constrained MCUs, however. The network still enforces the lower limit that is the maximum packet size of all enabled link layer protocols. But this new option permits the loopback packet size to be increased from that. * net/Kconfig: Adds CONFIG_NET_LOOPBACK_PKTSIZE option * include/nuttx/net/netconfig.h: Assures that the packet size that is used is at least as large as the largest packet size of other link layer protocols. * drivers/net/loopback.c: Use that larger packet size. * boards/sim/sim/sim/configs/tcploop/defconfig: Set the loopback packet size to 1500

* All MAC address processing is suppressed.

This commit attempts remove some long standard confusion in naming and some actual problems that result from the naming confusion. The basic problem is the standard MTU does not include the size of the Ethernet header. For clarity, I changed the naming of most things called MTU to PKTSIZE. For example, CONFIG_NET_ETH_MTU is now CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE. This makes the user interface a little hostile. People thing of an MTU of 1500 bytes, but the corresponding packet is really 1514 bytes (including the 14 byte Ethernet header). A more friendly solution would configure the MTU (as before), but then derive the packet buffer size by adding the MAC header length. Instead, we define the packet buffer size then derive the MTU. The MTU is not common currency in networking. On the wire, the only real issue is the MSS which is derived from MTU by subtracting the IP header and TCP header sizes (for the case of TCP). Now it is derived for the PKTSIZE by subtracting the IP header, the TCP header, and the MAC header sizes. So we should be all good and without the recurring 14 byte error in MTU's and MSS's. Squashed commit of the following: Trivial update to fix some spacing issues. net/: Rename several macros containing _MTU to _PKTSIZE. net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_SLIP_MTU to CONFIG_NET_SLIP_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU. These are not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. These are the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes). net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_6LOWPAN_MTU to CONFIG_NET_6LOWPAN_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU. These are not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. These are the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes). net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_ETH_MTU to CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE. This is not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header. This is the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes). net/: Rename the file d_mtu in the network driver structure to d_pktsize. That value saved there is not the MTU. The packetsize is the memory large enough to hold the maximum packet PLUS the size of the link layer header. The MTU does not include the link layer header.

config NET_TUN_PKTSIZE
int "TUN packet buffer size"
default 296
range 296 1518
---help---
Provides the size of the TUN packet buffers. This size includes
the TCP/UDP payload plus the size of TCP/UDP header and the IP header.
This value is related to the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit), except
that it includes the size of the link layer header; the payload is
the MSS (Maximum Segment Size). TUN has no link layer header so for
TUN the MTU is the same as the PKTSIZE.

config NETDEV_LATEINIT
bool "Late driver initialization"
default n
---help---
Normally, networking initialization occur in the later phase of the
boot process in the function up_initialize() when it calls the
2019-08-04 22:50:28 +02:00
driver initialization function, up_netinitialize(). This
initialization occurs after a sufficient amount of the OS has been
initialized so that driver registration can be performed, but
before the completion of OS initialization and before the first
application is started.
In a few situations, however, you may want to suppress this early
network driver initialization. As examples:
- If you are using SLIP or PPPD, then there will be no network
driver to be initialized,
- Certain multi-network configurations where a simple call to
up_netinitialize() may be insufficient, and
- Situations where there are other board-level hardware
dependencies so that the hardware is not in an appropriate
state for up_netinitialize() to be called.
Examples of this latter situation include such things as network
drivers that required some setup via an I2C I/O expander, or network
drivers that depend on USB, SPI, I2C, PCI, serial, or other
2020-03-12 07:04:42 +01:00
interfaces that may not be ready when up_netinitialize() is normally
called.

This comment adds (1) basic support for AF_BLUETOOTH sockets. The logic compiles but is still incomplete. Support for Bluetooth is general is still dependent on CONFIG_EXPERMIMENTAL because it is not yet ready for used. Squashed commit of the following: wireless/bluetooth: Some small changes that gets to a clean compile by just eliminating some incorrect implementations (still with a lot of warnings. The logic is still incomplete but now not so lethal. wireless/bluetooth: Restructuring: Connection interfaces should internal to wireless/bluetooth. include/nuttx/wireless/bt_conn.h removed and merged with wireless/bluetooth/bt_conn.h. Several fix to get closer to bt_netdev.c compiling. Need to design some not interfaces and use some existing interfaces to send and receiv packets. wireless/bluetooth: Some organization with some network device compile errors fixed. Still not even close to compiling. net/bluetooth: Fix numerous compile issues; Still open design issues with regard to the interface with the Bluetooth stack. wireless/bluetooth: Create bt_netdev.c with a crude copy of mac802154_netdev.c. Does not not even compile yet. include/nuttx/net: Add bluetooth.h. Content is not yet correct. net/netpackets: Add bluetooth.h. Update net/bluetooth to use new socket address definition. net/bluetooth: Some fixes for initial build. net/bluetooth: Add initial support for Bluetooth sockets. The initial cut is just the a clone of the IEEE 802.15.4 socket support with name changes. net/ieee802154: Fix some typos noted when cloning to create net/bluetooth.
