nifi 9508d2c4d7 * Added configurable default number of transmissions for CSMA to use when not specified using packetbuf attributes (CSMA_CONF_MAX_MAC_TRANSMISSIONS).
* Renamed packetbuf attribute PACKETBUF_ATTR_MAX_MAC_REXMIT to PACKETBUF_ATTR_MAX_MAC_TRANSMISSIONS where value 0 (attribute not set) means that default number of transmissions should be used.

adamdunkels a4f9e62295 Added a parameter to collect_open() that specifies whether or not the node should be a router for packets, or only an originator of packets. Updated the collect module to the new annoucement API. 2010-03-25 08:51:07 +00:00
adamdunkels 7b0606cd58 Renamed the neighbor module to collect-neighbor, as it is only used by the collect module and is not a generic neighbor module 2010-03-19 13:17:00 +00:00

adamdunkels 7165a3866f Significant rework of the Contiki data collection protocol:
* the new version makes use of MAC-layer feedback so that bad paths
  can be identified quicker and then avoided.

* the new code uses transport layer ACKs that contain feedback from
  the collect protocol: when a packet cannot be forwarded due to lack
  of resources, the ACK contains a flag that indicates that the packet
  could not be forwarded. ACKs also contain the routing metric of the
  sender, which improves agility in face of rapid path changes.

* loop detection and management has been improved: with higher path
  metric agility, the system is more prone to short-lived routing
  loops. Instead of dropping looping packets, the new version adjusts
  the routing metric for the routes that exhibit loops so that the
  risk for future loops is reduced.

* make use of packet attributes to inform the MAC layer of how many
  times packets should be retransmitted.

adamdunkels 0eade2886c Better loop handling: when a loop is detected, the neighbor to which the packet was originally sent gets an inflated ETX; made sure that collect without announcments work; increased timeouts, to work nicer in larger networks 2010-02-23 18:35:23 +00:00
adamdunkels 4a522c96dd Added debugging statements for packet drops 2010-02-08 21:59:49 +00:00
adamdunkels d7b7b05d0e Moved the neigbor_init() call to the collect module, since it is the only one that currently uses it 2010-02-03 20:38:33 +00:00
adamdunkels f66cd6d44e Increased the forwarding queue to six packets to improve collection robustness 2010-02-02 21:44:05 +00:00

adamdunkels e70cf0c7c6 Rewrite of the collect module. The new version uses a packet queue for outgoing and forwarded packets so that more than one packet can be forwarded at the same time. The new version uses the packetqueue module to maintain the packet queue. 2009-04-29 20:48:57 +00:00
adamdunkels f5f52ffd1f Fixes by Ward Van Heddeghem (VUB) 2009-04-07 13:06:03 +00:00
adamdunkels 65eb5fd4e8 Renamed the rimebuf module to packetbuf to signal that the module is used outside of a pure Rime context (e.g., the sicslowpan code uses it). 2009-03-12 21:58:20 +00:00

zhitao 1eb085834f Update announcement value after route metric saturates. Not doing this results in stubborn forwards from former children nodes. 2009-03-09 12:54:27 +00:00

zhitao 08b2315f41 bugfix: put up busy forwarding flag only after next hop found 2009-03-04 08:59:32 +00:00
adamdunkels 36bb3ece64 If no neighbor is found, we listen for announcements. Cleaned up debug output. 2009-02-16 01:18:53 +00:00
adamdunkels e1ef13dad6 Reduced the size of the packet cache from four to two to avoid falseley dismissing fresh packets (the header field that hold sequence numbers is only two bits wide, hence all sequence numbers fits in a four-entry cache...) 2009-02-10 00:44:50 +00:00
adamdunkels 3670ef2f44 Rewrote the collect module so that it uses the announcement module rather than the neighbor-discovery module. This makes it possible to implement other annoumcement back-ends than the traditional broadcast-based neighbor discovery 2009-02-09 20:58:25 +00:00
oliverschmidt 7cf3165155 Replaced NETSIM macro with general (and now actually working) solution in Makefile.include. 2008-11-17 22:52:10 +00:00
adamdunkels 31509ad726 Fixed a bunch of bugs in the collection neighbor announcement/discovery code: neighbor announcments were not repeated unless there was a change in the ETX val. Neighbor announcements happened to often when there were changes in the ETX. 2008-08-15 19:00:38 +00:00

adamdunkels dca1e0e446 Changed module name to 'collect' from 'tree' to better reflect the purpose of the module, rather than the particular data structure used to implement it 2007-11-28 16:04:41 +00:00
