-----------------------------------------
Summary: Controller should use a fixed buffer for reception as
opposed to mbufs
Key: MYNEWT-83
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-83
Project: Mynewt
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Nimble
Affects Versions: v0_8_0_beta1
Reporter: William San Filippo
Assignee: William San Filippo
Fix For: v0_8_0_beta2
The current controller code allocates mbufs for reception. During the
unplugfest it was noted that is was fairly easy to overload the host/controller
with packets. A probably better way to implement this is to have a global
receive buffer and we copy out into a mbuf if needed. Note that the transmit
portion of the controller already uses a global buffer for transmission.
