[lwip-devel] [patch #5960] Enable multithread send/recv operations on same socket on TCP netconns

[Simon Goldschmidt]

Follow-up Comment #27, patch #5960 (project lwip):

>On UDP, it's not a problem, but in this case, each threads got different
packets, but it's a usual way to do parallel processing.

With multicast UDP, each socket should get all the data! But that's a task
for bug #2809

>I would like to see current architecture fixed about this kind of problem,

Which problem, the recv/close or read/write?
If we invent a new socket layer, that would be twice the work...

> propose to open a new task named "New Socket API" where we could talk what
would be this new API (but after the next release?)

Agreed. But I think this is very independent of releases. It would be a
little change to tcpip.c and simply be a new socket.c (which I would hold
redundant to the current sockets.c until it is stable). Of course not a thing
we can integrate real easy in a next release...
