netconn Struct Reference

netconn Struct Reference

A netconn descriptor. More...

#include <api.h>

Data Fields

enum netconn_type type
 type of the netconn (TCP, UDP or RAW)
enum netconn_state state
 current state of the netconn
err_t last_err
 the last error this netconn had
sys_sem_t op_completed
 sem that is used to synchroneously execute functions in the core context
sys_mbox_t recvmbox
 mbox where received packets are stored until they are fetched by the netconn application thread (can grow quite big)
sys_mbox_t acceptmbox
 mbox where new connections are stored until processed by the application thread
int socket
 only used for socket layer
int recv_timeout
 timeout to wait for new data to be received (or connections to arrive for listening netconns)
int recv_bufsize
 maximum amount of bytes queued in recvmbox not used for TCP: adjust TCP_WND instead!
s16_t recv_avail
 number of bytes currently in recvmbox to be received, tested against recv_bufsize to limit bytes on recvmbox for UDP and RAW, used for FIONREAD
u8_t flags
 flags holding more netconn-internal state, see NETCONN_FLAG_* defines
size_t write_offset
 TCP: when data passed to netconn_write doesn't fit into the send buffer, this temporarily stores how much is already sent.
struct api_msg_msgcurrent_msg
 TCP: when data passed to netconn_write doesn't fit into the send buffer, this temporarily stores the message.
netconn_callback callback
 A callback function that is informed about events for this netconn.

A netconn descriptor.
