This commit fixes a small bug, where the TcpSocket computed the maximum
size per payload in a tx_buffer without taking into account the MTU
defined by the underlying network device.
Prior to this change, the neighbor cache would get limited even when the
device failed to process our arp packet, which could put the socket in
the waiting state in the next poll.
This change only limits the cache rate if the device successfully
consumed our packet.
Previously, the window update was sent anytime it changed. This is
not desirable for 2 reasons:
- It would send window updates in TimeWait or Closed states, which is incorrect.
- It would send window updates in states where we've already received the
remote side's FIN, such as CloseWait. This is not necessarily incorrect, but
is useless, since the remote side is not going to send us more data, therefore
it's not interested in our window size anymore.
This allows applications to distinguish whether the remote end has
gracefully closed the connection with a FIN (in which case it has
received all the data intact), or the connection has failed due to e.g. a
RST or a timeout (in which case the received data may be truncated).
Previously, `ack_reply()` was sending the ack number present in `remote_last_ack`,
which is only updated by `dispatch`. This means the ack replies could contain
a wrong, old ack number.
Most of the time this simply caused wasting an extra roundtrip until the socket state
settles down, but in extreme cases it could lead to an infinite loop of packets, such
as in https://github.com/smoltcp-rs/smoltcp/issues/338Fixes#338
This fixes build on latest nightly. The cause of the breakage
is this commit:
7c4ca59f4b
which added a #[must_use = "if you don't need the old value, you
can just assign the new value directly"] hint to mem::replace.
When packet buffer's payload buffer does not have enough contiguous
window left, the ring buffer roll over uses an incorrect size
causing the ring buffer pointer not resetting to the head.
When the payload enqueued is larger than 1/2 of the payload ring
buffer, this bug will cause the slice returned by
`PacketBuffer::enqueue` to not match the requested size, and
trigger `debug_assert` in debug profile or size mismatch panic in
`copy_from_slice` when compiled in release profile.
Although ordering is not specified in the spec, some implementations expect
some ordering (unforntunately I have found one that does, and blocks outbound
packets due to 'invalid tcp options').
Instead of configuring the ifaces ip address when a dhcp server offers
and ip, we now use the requested_ip option, based on the offered ip
(yiaddr). The user now only has to configure the iface once the dhcp
transaction has completed (Ack'd).
