34d2cde8a8 net/l2/l3/l4: add support of iob offload 
1. Add new config CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE to isolation of l2 stack,
   which will benefit l3(IP) layer for multi-MAC(l2) implementation,
   especially in some NICs such as celluler net driver.

new configuration options: CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE

CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE will reserved l2 buffer header size of
network buffer to isolate the L2/L3 (MAC/IP) data on network layer,
which will be beneficial to L3 network layer protocol transparent
transmission and forwarding

------------------------------------------------------------
Layout of frist iob entry:

        iob_data (aligned by CONFIG_IOB_ALIGNMENT)
            |
            |                  io_offset(CONFIG_NET_LL_GUARDSIZE)
            |                                |
            -------------------------------------------------
      iob   |            Reserved            |    io_len    |

            -------------------------------------------------

2. Support iob offload to l2 driver to avoid unnecessary memory copy

Support send/receive iob vectors directly between the NICs and l3/l4
stack to avoid unnecessary memory copies, especially on hardware that
supports Scatter/gather, which can greatly improve performance.

new interface to support iob offload:

  ------------------------------------------
  |    IOB version     |     original      |
  |----------------------------------------|
  |  devif_iob_poll()  |   devif_poll()    |
  |       ...          |       ...         |
  ------------------------------------------

0074afa0ac net/netdev: add devif_loopback_out() to check the loopback case where a packet is being sent to itself. Modify the net driver to call this function in this case. This function will simply re-inject the packet back into the network and the network driver will not put anything on the wire. 2018-08-24 09:21:33 -06:00

a93f130002 6LoWPAN: Add configurable support for 6LoWPAN star topology. With this change, the endpoints which are the 'points' of the star will forward all traffic to the coordinator. The coordinator is assumed to be the 'hub' of the star. This function also implements IPv6 forwarding. That forwarding implementation is minimal, just enough to support the forwarding requirements of the star hub node. 2017-06-28 15:39:21 -06:00
