2017-01-226lowpan: use rb_entry()Geliang Tang
To make the code clearer, use rb_entry() instead of container_of() to deal with rbtree. Signed-off-by: Geliang Tang <geliangtang@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-10-216lowpan: nhc: move iphc manipulation out of nhcAlexander Aring
This patch moves the iphc setting of next header commpression bit inside iphc functionality. Setting of IPHC bits should be happen at iphc.c file only. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2015-10-216lowpan: cleanup lowpan_header_decompressAlexander Aring
This patch changes the lowpan_header_decompress function by removing inklayer related information from parameters. This is currently for supporting short and extended address for iphc handling in 802154. We don't support short address handling anyway right now, but there exists already code for handling short addresses in lowpan_header_decompress. The address parameters are also changed to a void pointer, so 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code can put complex structures as these parameters and cast it again inside the generic code by evaluating linklayer type before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and then source address, which is the same like all others functions where destination is always the first, memcpy, dev_hard_header, lowpan_header_compress, etc. This patch also moves the fetching of iphc values from 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code into the generic branch.

2015-02-146lowpan: add generic nhc layer interfaceAlexander Aring
This patch adds a generic next header compression layer interface. There exists various methods to do a header compression after 6LoWPAN header to save payload. This introduce a generic nhc header which allow a simple adding of a new header compression format instead of a static implementation inside the 6LoWPAN header compression and uncompression function.
