These headers do not provide full stl functionality,
but a small subset:
* thread and this_thread
* condition_variable (some timed functions are missing)
* mutex, lock_guard and unique_lock
Currently, the tcp and udp implementations are bound to each other in a
module called *destiny*. Thus, when using only one of them then the
other one gets also compiled into the binary and initialized,
which results in unnecessary RAM usage and workload for the CPU.
The approach in this PR defines a common module named *socket_base*,
which contains functions used by the posix layer. Compiled by it's own,
those functions return negative error codes, to symbolize upper layers
that they are not supported. When also including the modules *udp* or
*tcp* respectively, functions from *socket_base* get overwritten with the
correct functionality.
Defining *udp* or *tcp* in a Makefile also includes *socket_base*.
Defining *pnet* in a Makefile also includes *socket_base*.
For MSP430 boards oneway-malloc is already used *if* `malloc.h` was
included. The problem is that `malloc.h` is not a standard header, even
though it is common. `stdlib.h` in the right place to look for
`malloc()` and friends.
This change removes this discrepancy. `malloc()` is just named like
that, without the leading underscore. The symbols now are weak, which
means that they won't override library functions if MSP's standard
library will provide these functions at some point. (Unlikely, since
using `malloc()` on tiny systems is less then optimal ...)
Closes#1061 and #863.
Application developers use `$(USEMODULES)` in their Makefiles to have
the relevant functionally automagically added to their apps. This even
does basic dependency tracking by means of `Makefile.dep`.
But an important thing is missing: the automatic adding of include
paths. This is inconvenient, error prone, and will hinder the RIOT core
developers in future to change folder structures.
