include/nuttx/net/ipv6ext.h: Fix some terminology: Hop-by-hop, not Hop-to-hop or Hop2hop.
net/devif/ipv6_input.c and net/icmpv6/icmpv6_input.c: Add logic to skiip over the variable number of IPv6 extension headers that may be present between the IPv6 header and the transport layer header. The extension headers are simply ignored. This is necessary because with MLD, certain incoming messages may have, at a mimimum, a Router Alert Hop-by-hop extension header.
net/inet/ipv6_setsockopt.c: Implement the IPV6_JOIN_GROUP and IPV6_LEAVE_GROUP socket options.
net/mld: The MLD logic now compiles and is much less toxic. It still is not a proper MLD implementation: (1) It is basically a port of IGMP, tweaked to work with IPv6 and ICMPv6 MLD messages, (2) it needs a proper analysis and comparison with RFC 3810, and (3) it is completely untested. For this reason, it will remain EXPERIMENTAL for some time.
net/mld: Add some missing macros, more fixes related to IPv6 vs IPv4 types,
net/mld: More compilation cleaning. Most fixups for IPv6 vs IPv4 types.
net/mld: Hook crudely converted .c files into build system and resolve a few of the many, many compilation/design problems.
net/mld: Add support for MLD statistics.
net/mld: Hook in MLD poll and packet transmission logic.
net/mld: Change references to IPv4 definitions to IPv6 definitions; Remove mld_input() since MLD piggybacks on ICMPv6 input. Add functions to catch MLD messages dispatched by ICMPv6 input logic.
net/mld: As a starting point, copy all net/igmp/*.c files to net/mld/. and change all occurrences of igmp (or IGMP) to mld (or MLD).

Fixes logic in ipv6_input to handle more than ff02::/16 multicast addresses. Don't forward mcast packets if scope is not appropriate

net/sixlowpan: Fixes bug in uncompress_addr handling of odd postfix.
This affected multicast compress/uncompress since it's the only logic that used an odd postfix. The odd byte needs to be handled first, not last.

many locations: Change occurences of open() followed by file_detach() to file_open(). Change most non-controversion calls to open() to nx_open().
fs/inode/fs_fileopen.c: Flesh out file_open() with some interim, placeholder logic.
fs/inode/fs_fileopen.c: Add a framework for a file_open() implementation (no real logic in place yet).
fs/vfs/fs_open.c: Add nx_open() which is the same as open() except that it does not create a cancellation point nor does it modify the errno variable.
sched/wqueue/kwork_notifier.c: Redesign some data structures. struct works_s must appear at the beginning of the notifier entry structure. That is because it contains the work queue indices. This solves a harfault issue.
net/tcp/tcp_netpoll.c: tcp_iob_work() needs to free the allocated argument when it is finished.
net/tcp/tcp_send_buffered.c: Extend psock_tcp_cansend() so that it also requires that at least on IOB is also avaialble.
mm/iob: iob_navail() was returning the number of free IOB chain queue entries, not the number of free IOBs. Completely misnamed.
net/tcp/tcp_netpoll.c: Add logic to receive notifications when IOBs are freed (Needs CONFIG_NET_TCP_WRITE_BUFFERS and CONFIG_IOB_NOTIFIER). At present, does nothing because the logic in in psock_tcp_cansend() does not check for the availability of IOBs. That will change.
Squashed commit of the following:
Fix up some final compile isses.
net/netdev: Convert the network down notification logic to use the new wqueue-based notification factility.
net/udp: Convert the UDP readahead notification logic to use the new wqueue-based notification factility.
net/tcp: Convert the TCP readahead notification logic to use the new wqueue-based notification factility.
mm/iob: Convert the IOB notification logic to use the new wqueue-based notification factility.
sched/wqueue: Signals are not good IPCs to support the target poll functionality for several reasons including the amount of data that can be passed with a signal and in the fact that in protected and kernel modes, user threads executing signal handlers in protected, kernel memory is problematic. Instead, convert the same logic to perform the notifications via function callback on the high priority work queue.
Squashed commit of the following:
net/tcp: Add signal notification for the case when UDP read-ahead data is buffered. This is basically of clone of the TCP notification logic with naming adapted for UDP.
