Add retries and buffer checking to mdns
Get the length right
Now it seems to work
* Might work for combined mode
* Fix crash
* Simplified various bits of code. Changed the LUA interface
Added checking (to some degree) incoming quyery types
Move the defaults to the right place
Added reference to the RFC`
AFAIK no one uses the wifi.startsmart() and wifi.stopsmart(). Removing
them frees up an extra 20-25K of Flash to use as filesystem. So I have
added a new config define WIFI_SMART_ENABLE which is enabled by default
so the default functionality is the same, but if this is commented out
then this code is omitted.
I have also removed wofs and upgrade from this build as we no longer
support these.
As with the last commit this rolls up the follwowing, but include the various
review comments on the PR.
- **Documentation changes**. I've added the taks FAQ as a stub new Extension
developer FAQ, and split the old FAQ into a Lua Developer FAQ and a Hardware
FAQ.
- **Tasking I/F**. New `app/task/Makefile`, `app/task/task.c`,
`app/include/task/task.h` and `app/Makefile` as per previous commit. Cascade
changes to `app/driver/uart.c`, `app/include/driver/uart.h`,
`app/user/user_main.c` and `app/modules/node.c`
- **GPIO Rework** to `app/modules/gpio.c` and `pin_map.[hc]`, `platform.[hc]`
in `app/platform`
- **Other Optimisations** Move the `platform_*_exists()` from
`app/platform/common.c` to static inline declarations in `platform.h` as
this generates faster, smaller code. Move lgc.a routines out of iram0.
As per #810 & #796, only LUA_OPTIMIZE_MEMORY=2 & MIN_OPT_LEVEL=2 are
supported when building. This commit effects that limitation.
With this change modules/auxmods.h no longer needs to be updated for
every new module, nor do module writers need to cater for a hypothetical
LUA_OPTIMIZE_MEMORY < 2 scenario.
Renamed the main linker script to make it clear it is customised for NodeMCU
and not to be confused with the standard linker SDK linker scripts.
Changed to using the eagle.rom.addr.v6.ld file from the SDK.
Accessing 8bit and 16bit constants from ROM rather than RAM comes with a
performance cost, as these loads go through the load/store exception
vector. Any performance critical constants can be forced back into RAM
as RAM_CONST_ATTR.
The entry point has changed from call_user_start() to user_start_trampoline()
in order for the exception handler to be installed early enough.
