Chen,

 

When NO_SYS=1, there is a lot more to do than you had to prior just calling tcp_tick().  I use the following code to update the lwIP timers.  You can call this every mS (or to be more efficient, every 250mS since that is the LCD of the all of the modulus operands).  I essence, this becomes your tcp_tick for lwIP.  For the rest of your program, I’d switch to the more standard socket interface in lwIP.  The Rabbit stack wasn’t really socket compatible as their naming might imply.

void        lwipProcessTimers( void )

{

void              ip_reass_tmr( void );

 

            if( (lwip_mS % TCP_TMR_INTERVAL) == 0 ) tcp_tmr();

            if( (lwip_mS % ARP_TMR_INTERVAL) == 0 ) etharp_tmr();

#if IP_REASSEMBLY

            if( (lwip_mS % IP_TMR_INTERVAL) == 0 ) ip_reass_tmr();

#endif

#if LWIP_AUTOIP

            if( (lwip_mS % AUTOIP_TMR_INTERVAL ) == 0 ) autoip_tmr();

#endif

#if LWIP_IGMP

            if( (lwip_mS % IGMP_TMR_INTERVAL ) == 0 ) igmp_tmr();

#endif

#if LWIP_DHCP

            if( (lwip_mS % DHCP_FINE_TIMER_MSECS ) == 0 ) dhcp_fine_tmr();

            if( (lwip_mS % (DHCP_COARSE_TIMER_SECS*1000) ) == 0 ) dhcp_coarse_tmr();

#endif

#if LWIP_DNS

            if( (lwip_mS % DNS_TMR_INTERVAL) == 0 ) dns_tmr();

#endif

}

Simon,

Thanks to your reply, I am so new to the forum, I am not sure if this the right way to  to reply on the forum.

<<There is an example (very simple) HTTP server for the raw API in the contrib module (there is also a port for unix and win32 for easy development/debugging). The contrib module for lwIP 1.3.0 is availaible in the download section at savannah or via CVS.>>

Could you show me how to get to the download section?

<<As you mentioned you used ATMEL sample projects: be aware ATMEL could have an older version of lwIP, which is not really supported on this list. Oh, and when using the raw API: be aware the functions may only be called from one thread, the lwIP core is NOT thread safe (use sockets/netconn if you want that).>>

ATMEL also has a working HTTP sample which I believed is based on lwIP version 1.3 , but I just can't figure out how to extract the pieces to construct a telnet server from it.

Based on my previous experience with Dynamic C (see the end of this email for the example), I assume I could build something similar from lwIP (btw, I still couldn't find any sample using tcp_* under lwIP).

Based on your suggested reading, I struggle to come up something like this. When running, it acted like a TCP black hole: I can open connection to port 23 once, JUST ONCE, and type until the socket is closed due to time out.

Problem:
1) From Ethereal, it accepted Telnet connection with SYN, ACK, and after that it does nothing, never ACK to the incoming data anymore
2) I have no idea how to test number of data in the receive buffer
3) The state machine doesn't totally agree with Dynamic C's and I have no clue how to deal with them due to lack of documentation

Could you be so kind to give me some pointers on this?

Thank you very very much for your time!

Regards,

Chen
