This module provides no more than the correct configuration parameters
for the `w5100` driver using the Arduino I/O mapping features. But
by doing so, it will work out of the box with every mechanically and
electrically compatible board for which the Arduino I/O mapping
features are implemented.
- most were trivial
- missing group close or open
- extra space
- no doxygen comment
- name commad might open an implicit group
this hould also be implicit cosed but does not happen somtimes
- crazy: internal declared groups have to be closed internal
A if `netdev_driver_t::confirm_send()` is provided, it provides the
new netdev API. However, detecting the API at runtime and handling
both API styles comes at a cost. This can be optimized in case only
new or only old style netdevs are in use.
To do so, this adds the pseudo modules `netdev_legacy_api` and
`netdev_new_api`. As right now no netdev actually implements the new
API, all netdevs pull in `netdev_legacy_api`. If `netdev_legacy_api` is
in used but `netdev_new_api` is not, we can safely assume at compile
time that only legacy netdevs are in use. Similar, if only
`netdev_new_api` is used, only support for the new API is needed. Only
when both are in use, run time checks are needed.
This provides two helper function to check for a netif if the
corresponding netdev implements the old or the new API. (With one
being the inverse of the other.) They are suitable for constant folding
when only new or only legacy devices are in use. Consequently, dead
branches should be eliminated by the optimizer.
If netdev_driver_t::recv() is called and the provided buffer is smaller than
the frame then `-ENOBUFS` should be returned, the frame should be dropped, and
no data of the frame should be returned.
