Re: [lwip-users] How to check send state?

[Karl Karpfen]

OK, so let me ask this in an different way:

Currently I do have data to be sent available in main loop only. How can I enqueue these data into the lwIP-ISR-context correctly so that it can be transmitted without problems?

Currently I'm doing it as described at http://lwip.wikia.com/wiki/Raw/TCPin section "Sending TCP data" which seems to be wrong for my case...

Yeah, I should have kept reading.  Sorry

Bill, I appreciate you trying to teach programming basics, but I think this won't get Karl Karpfen further: sending from main-loop and receiving in interrupt just won't work with lwIP.

Hi,

 

Did you declare sentLength as volatile?  You might also need to protect it if it’s not loaded/stored in a single processor instruction (not likely to be the case with a 32-bit architecture).

Hi,

within my lwIP application (TCP with permanent connection) I'm sending some data out of main-loop (no interrupt context) and start submission by calling

tcp_output(currentPcb);

Sending of data is done via tcp_write(). Within the send function itself amount of data already sent is stored in a variable sentLength. Now to find out if it is possible to send next bunch of data I check this variable. When its size is equal to the length of the previous data buffer, sending was completed and I start submission of next buffer.

 

My problem here: sentLength is manipulated out of interrupt context while checking it for completion is done out of main loop. It seems this sometimes causes troubles, at receiver side I can see incomplete frames.

So my question: what is the correct way to find out if currentPcb has finished sending (or better has pushed all data to tcp_write()) and is ready to accept next bunch of data?

Thanks!
