My socket-based IPv4 only program doesn't work with lwIP. It seems that there
is an endian issue with the UDP/TCP ports. As shown in the attached
screenshot, I have to modify lwIP's IP4ADDR_PORT_TO_SOCKADDR() and
SOCKADDR4_TO_IP4ADDR_PORT() macros by removing the byte swaps on the ports
(i.e. removing lwip_htons() and lwip_ntohs()), to make my program work, and
for the TCP/UDP ports to show as expected in Wireshark. Is this an lwIP bug,
or is there somehow something wrong with my configuration?

Details:

The attached zip contains sample code from NXP for their i.MX RT1170
Evaluation Kit (board URL below). The included lwIP appears to be based on the
2.2.0 development branch. It does not include my sockets code, nor the patch
to lwIP in my screenshot.

https://www.nxp.com/design/development-boards/i-mx-evaluation-and-development-boards/i-mx-rt1170-evaluation-kit:MIMXRT1170-EVK

I checked out the sample using MCUXpresso IDE v11.6.1 (Quickstart Panel ->
Import SDK example(s)).

Relevant lwipopts:
#define LWIP_SOCKET  1
#define LWIP_IPV4    1
#define LWIP_IPV6    0

Via platform #defines / #ifdefs:
BYTE_ORDER == _LITTLE_ENDIAN == 1234
