Replaced ip4_addr_t to ip_addr_t in pppapi_pppol2tp_create() prototype,
now binding to UDPv6 or UDPv4 depending on the passed ip_addr_t type.
Removed pppol2tp_create_ip6() and pppapi_pppol2tp_create_ip6().
ip_addr_t is used for all generic IP addresses for the API, ip(4/6)_addr_t are only used internally or when initializing netifs or when calling version-related functions
Follow-up of the #44565 bug fix, renamed the misnamed
PPP_INPROC_MULTITHREADED to PPP_INPROC_IRQ_SAFE because it is
IRQ safe but not thread safe.
Updated PPP documentation which now clearly state when and how
this feature can be used.
!NO_SYS users may now use as well the TCPIP API for PPPoS input data,
this way they can disable PPP_INPROC_MULTITHREADED and run pppos_input()
inside the lwIP thread, which fixes, at least for them, all the
threading issues related to PPP_INPROC_MULTITHREADED.
Makes it clear we are initiating the PPP session with ppp_connect
(i.e. acting as a PPP client) so there is no confusion possible
between ppp_connect and ppp_listen.
PPP is now pointerful for a while, we don't need anymore accessor functions
for the unique PPP local and static control block. Replaced
ppp_set_netif_statuscallback() and ppp_set_netif_linkcallback() functions to
defines.
Removed pppapi_do_ppp_set_netif_statuscallback() and
pppapi_do_ppp_set_netif_linkcallback(), they were useless because
netif_set_status_callback() and netif_set_link_callback() can be
safely called while PPP status is in dead (= non open) state
and even before the PPP session is actually created at all.
The only benefit of ppp_delete() call was about having a persistent
netif interface. netif was moved out of PPP pcb so we don't need
ppp_delete() anymore, second step in simplifying the weird
new/open/free/delete PPP API.
The only benefit of ppp_new() call was about having a persistent netif
interface. netif was moved out of PPP pcb so we don't need ppp_new()
anymore, first step in simplifying the weird new/open/free/delete PPP
API.
Users might want to share a netif control block between an Ethernet
interface and a PPPoS interface (I want actually) in case PPP is just
used as redundancy if Ethernet is down (eg. PPPoS GPRS fail over).
Moved netif out of PPP control block in a similar way it is currently
done for Ethernet interfaces. Furthermore, this is a first step on
removing the "new/create/free/delete" API which is awful but currently
necessary to handle fail over from PPPoX to another PPPoX (eg. from PPoE
on xDSL to PPPoS on GPRS fail over) without free()ing the netif which
might be used on udp_sendto() or L2TP VPN links.
