History: ip_ifc_eth

This page describes all changes made to the ip_ifc_eth package, Ethernet interface driver for the TCP/IP stack, since its release.

Version

1.22 (2021-01-18, 9:31):

  • bugfix: ip_eth_raw_rel_buf() never released the IP buffer. This function is used with EAP-OL and didn't cause an issue due to another incorrect behavior in it (receive incorrectly returned an error and the IP buffer was released in another path).

1.21 (2020-05-20, 22:31):

  • MISRA-C:2012: violations eliminated (MISRA-C:2004 revoked).

1.20 (2020-03-31, 19:00):

  • const removed from interface pointer parameter of interface handler functions to be compatible with all interfaces (it didn't work with PPP).

1.19 (2020-03-26, 10:45):

  • Added checking whether destination MAC address is listened to by interface, in case hardware driver does not support address filtering.

1.18 (2019-12-09, 13:20):

  • Fixed compilation warning about not using ip_eth_raw_hdl if IP_IFC_ETH_RAW_RECV_NR was 0.

1.17 (2019-11-25, 15:57):

  • MISRA-C:2004: violations eliminated.

1.16 (2018-12-14, 12:00):

  • History and document files renamed to the package name.

1.15 (2018-07-17, 08:29):
