Hi,
Sorry for the delay, I have been trying to get httpd running over LWIP
on eCos, now that I have resolved all the issues, I can attend this
your questions.
Please could you explain what goes wrong with loopif and how your
change fixes this.
The current code is:
#if LWIP_HAVE_LOOPIF
IP4_ADDR(&gw, 127,0,0,1);
IP4_ADDR(&ipaddr, 127,0,0,1);
IP4_ADDR(&netmask, 255,0,0,0);
netif_add(&ecos_loopif, &ipaddr, &netmask, &gw, NULL, loopif_init,
tcpip_input);
#endif
Reading netif_add, it will call loopif_init, so it is not obvious to
me why you need to call it before.
I actually hadn't test this. I just noticed that when I enabled debug
the message never printed out the loopif interface name properly, I
thought this one liner would fix it.
> #if LWIP_SLIP
> - lwip_set_addr(&mynetif);
> slipif_init(&mynetif);
> - netif_set_default(&mynetif);
> + lwip_set_addr(&mynetif);
> #elif PPP_SUPPORT
> pppInit();
> #if PAP_SUPPORT || CHAP_SUPPORT
Here you no longer call netif_set_default(). Did you test this change
with routing to packets via a default gateway?
If you simply look further down the file, where lwip_set_addr is
defined, the function calls netif_set_default. Essentially
netif_set_default was called twice in the original code.
Note that I have to move the call to lwip_set_addr after slipif_init
resets the netif->flags. Inside lwip_set_addr, it attempts to bring
the interface up by setting a bit in netif->flags, which slipif_init
clears.

Again, please could you explain this change. It is not obvious what is
wrong.
If I don't set up the serial port driver to blocking read, I would be
continously receiving garbage that is returned from a non-blocking
read, which is not what I want. So I enabled blocking on both reads
and writes and that made things behave a lot better.
There is no FLOW_CONTROL_METHOD option implemented in the at91 serial
driver, trying to do that on the driver will stop the LWIP
initialization process.
Hope this helps,
David
