Subject: [PATCH bluetooth-next 0/2] 6lowpan: stateful compression support
Date: Sun, 10 Jan 2016 21:50:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1452459025-13884-1-git-send-email-alex.aring@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
this contains at first some small fix for the netdev notifier which I deteced
while hacking 6lowpan stateful compression support.
I rework the debugfs entry for the stateful compression. Now each context entry
for a 6LoWPAN contains has his own subdirectory (named as his CID value).
In this subdirectories there exists the following files for manipulating the
context entry:
- active: If the context belongs to the table or not.
- compression: the compression flag according rfc6775.
- prefix: ipv6 prefix in xxxx:xxxx:....:xxxx form.
- prefix_lenght: the length of the ipv6 prefix.
This offers a setting per property instead doing remember the full context and
doing echo "$FULL_CONTEXT_INFORMATION" > ctx_table.
These file should be prepared to move into the sysfs directory when it seems to
running fine.
There exist one file "show" inside $LOWPAN_IFACE/contexts/. This file is for
a "pretty-printout" for the current context table. I use the same format-string
like RIOT-OS, example:
cid|prefix |C
-------------------------------------------------
0| 2001::/64 |1
1| 2001::1/128|1
2| 2001::5/128|1
7| 2002::/64 |1
difference here is that RIOT shows the lifetime, but I currently see no sense to
handle the lifetime in kernelspace.
Also I added support to clean the context table when doing a "ifdown". The reason
is that IPv6 interface will also drop all address information while doing a
ifdown and a 6LoWPAN should not use previous context information after ifup again.
