netif_is_up

#define netif_is_up

(((netif)->flags & NETIF_FLAG_UP) ? (u8_t)1 : (u8_t)0)

Ask if an interface is up

Typedef Documentation

netif_ext_callback_fn

typedef void(* netif_ext_callback_fn) (struct netif *netif, netif_nsc_reason_t reason, const netif_ext_callback_args_t *args)

Function used for extended netif status callbacks Note: When parsing reason argument, keep in mind that more reasons may be added in the future!

Parameters

netif	netif that is affected by change
reason	change reason
args	depends on reason, see reason description

netif_nsc_reason_t

typedef u16_t netif_nsc_reason_t

Extended netif status callback (NSC) reasons flags. May be extended in the future!

Function Documentation

netif_add()

struct netif* netif_add	(	struct netif *	netif,
		void *	state,
		netif_init_fn	init,
		netif_input_fn	input
	)

Add a network interface to the list of lwIP netifs.

Parameters

netif	a pre-allocated netif structure
ipaddr	IP address for the new netif
netmask	network mask for the new netif
gw	default gateway IP address for the new netif
state	opaque data passed to the new netif
init	callback function that initialises the interface
input	callback function that is called to pass ingress packets up in the protocol layer stack. It is recommended to use a function that passes the input directly to the stack (netif_input(), NO_SYS=1 mode) or via sending a message to TCPIP thread (tcpip_input(), NO_SYS=0 mode). These functions use netif flags NETIF_FLAG_ETHARP and NETIF_FLAG_ETHERNET to decide whether to forward to ethernet_input() or ip_input(). In other words, the functions only work when the netif driver is implemented correctly! Most members of struct netif should be be initialised by the netif init function = netif driver (init parameter of this function). IPv6: Don't forget to call netif_create_ip6_linklocal_address() after setting the MAC address in struct netif.hwaddr (IPv6 requires a link-local address).

Returns

netif, or NULL if failed.
