Detailed Description

Transmission Control Protocol for IP.

This file contains common functions for the TCP implementation, such as functinos for manipulating the data structures and the TCP timer functions. TCP functions related to input and output is found in tcp_in.c and tcp_out.c respectively.

Definition in file tcp.c.

Function Documentation

void tcp_abandon	(	struct tcp_pcb *	pcb,
		int	reset
	)

Abandons a connection and optionally sends a RST to the remote host.

Deletes the local protocol control block. This is done when a connection is killed because of shortage of memory.

Parameters:

pcb	the tcp_pcb to abort
reset	boolean to indicate whether a reset should be sent

Definition at line 316 of file tcp.c.

void tcp_abort ( struct tcp_pcb * pcb )

Aborts the connection by sending a RST (reset) segment to the remote host.

The pcb is deallocated. This function never fails.

ATTENTION: When calling this from one of the TCP callbacks, make sure you always return ERR_ABRT (and never return ERR_ABRT otherwise or you will risk accessing deallocated memory or memory leaks!

Parameters:

pcb	the tcp pcb to abort

Definition at line 378 of file tcp.c.

void tcp_accept	(	struct tcp_pcb *	pcb,
		tcp_accept_fn	accept
	)

Used for specifying the function that should be called when a LISTENing connection has been connected to another host.

Parameters:

pcb	tcp_pcb to set the accept callback
accept	callback function to call for this pcb when LISTENing connection has been connected to another host

Definition at line 1328 of file tcp.c.

static err_t tcp_accept_null	(	void *	arg,
		struct tcp_pcb *	pcb,
		err_t	err
	)		`[static]`

Default accept callback if no accept callback is specified by the user.

Definition at line 457 of file tcp.c.

struct tcp_pcb* tcp_alloc ( u8_t prio ) [read]

Allocate a new tcp_pcb structure.

Parameters:

prio	priority for the new pcb

Returns:: a new tcp_pcb that initially is in state CLOSED

Definition at line 1174 of file tcp.c.

void tcp_arg	(	struct tcp_pcb *	pcb,
		void *	arg
	)

Used to specify the argument that should be passed callback functions.

Parameters:

pcb	tcp_pcb to set the callback argument
arg	void pointer argument to pass to callback functions

Definition at line 1273 of file tcp.c.

err_t tcp_bind	(	struct tcp_pcb *	pcb,
		ip_addr_t *	ipaddr,
		u16_t	port
	)

Binds the connection to a local portnumber and IP address.

If the IP address is not given (i.e., ipaddr == NULL), the IP address of the outgoing network interface is used instead.

Parameters:

pcb	the tcp_pcb to bind (no check is done whether this pcb is already bound!)
ipaddr	the local ip address to bind to (use IP_ADDR_ANY to bind to any local address
port	the local port to bind to

Returns:: ERR_USE if the port is already in use ERR_OK if bound

Definition at line 397 of file tcp.c.

err_t tcp_close ( struct tcp_pcb * pcb )

Closes the connection held by the PCB.

Listening pcbs are freed and may not be referenced any more. Connection pcbs are freed if not yet connected and may not be referenced any more. If a connection is established (at least SYN received or in a closing state), the connection is closed, and put in a closing state. The pcb is then automatically freed in tcp_slowtmr(). It is therefore unsafe to reference it (unless an error is returned).

Parameters:

pcb	the tcp_pcb to close

Returns:: ERR_OK if connection has been closed another err_t if closing failed and pcb is not freed

Definition at line 250 of file tcp.c.

static err_t tcp_close_shutdown	(	struct tcp_pcb *	pcb,
		u8_t	rst_on_unacked_data
	)		`[static]`

Closes the TX side of a connection held by the PCB.

For tcp_close(), a RST is sent if the application didn't receive all data (tcp_recved() not called for all data passed to recv callback).

Listening pcbs are freed and may not be referenced any more. Connection pcbs are freed if not yet connected and may not be referenced any more. If a connection is established (at least SYN received or in a closing state), the connection is closed, and put in a closing state. The pcb is then automatically freed in tcp_slowtmr(). It is therefore unsafe to reference it.

Parameters:

pcb	the tcp_pcb to close

Returns:: ERR_OK if connection has been closed another err_t if closing failed and pcb is not freed

Definition at line 138 of file tcp.c.

err_t tcp_connect	(	struct tcp_pcb *	pcb,
		ip_addr_t *	ipaddr,
		u16_t	port,
		tcp_connected_fn	connected
	)

Connects to another host.

The function given as the "connected" argument will be called when the connection has been established.

Parameters:

pcb	the tcp_pcb used to establish the connection
ipaddr	the remote ip address to connect to
port	the remote tcp port to connect to
connected	callback function to call when connected (or on error)

Returns:: ERR_VAL if invalid arguments are given ERR_OK if connect request has been sent other err_t values if connect request couldn't be sent
