  • - Cortex-M3 Hard Fault. - Fixed a hard fault problem that can occur if certaintypes of interrupts are pending at the time another interrupt returns. - This problem has only been observed on the LPC1766 (returning from a SYSTICK interrupt with a pending Ethernet interrupt). - However, it is assumed that all Cortex-M3 ports could have this as a latent bug. -
    • -
  • - TCP/IP Sequence Number Bug. - Corrected errors some important logic in the way that sequence numbers are managed when send() sends out packets before a previous packet has been acknowledged. - Some of that send() logic was incompatible with logicin the uIP layer. - Errors seen include: - (1) The final final packet in a sequence of packets might be too large! - In the THTTPD example, this might leave some garbage at the bottom of the display. - Or (2) send() might hang with outstanding, unacknowledged data (and with no re-transmission requests). - This was due to differences in sequence number handling in send() and in uip_tcpinput.c; - uip_tcpinput.c thought (incorrectly) that all of the bytes were acknowledged; - send.c knew that they were not. -
    • -
  • - One-Shot POSIX Timer Bug. - Fixed an error in set-up of a one-shot POSIX timer. - It was using the repititive timer value (which is zero in the one-shot case), always resulting in a 10Ms timer! - Found and fixed by Wilton Tong. -
