(CVS HEAD)
(git master)

* [Enter new changes just after this line - do not remove this line]
* The eth_addr_cmp and ip_addr_cmp set of functions have been renamed to eth_addr_eq, ip_addr_eq
and so on, since they return non-zero on equality. Macros for the old names exist.
* The sio_write function used by PPP now takes the data argument as const.
* The prev field in the snmp_varbind struct has been removed.

(2.2.0)

++ Repository changes:

* The contrib repository has been added into the main repository in the subdirectory 'contrib'
(the old contrib repository remains online for reference but is not used any more)

(2.1.0)

++ Application changes:

* Use the new altcp API for seamless TLS integration into existing TCP applications (see changelog)
* TCP only kills existing connections with a LOWER priority than the one currently being opened.
Previous implementations also kill existing connections of the SAME priority.
* ip4_route_src: parameter order is reversed: ip4_route_src(dest, src) -> ip4_route_src(src, dest)
to make parameter order consistent with other ip*_route*() functions.
Same also applies to LWIP_HOOK_IP4_ROUTE_SRC() parameter order.
* pbuf API: pbuf->type (an u8_t holding the enum 'pbuf_type') has changed to only hold a
description of the pbuf (e.g. data following pbuf struct, data volatile, allocation
source heap/pool/etc.). As a consequence, applications can't test pbuf->type any more.
Use pbuf_match_type(pbuf, type) instead.
* socket API: according to the standard, SO_ERROR now only returns asynchronous errors.
All other/normal/synchronous errors are (and always were) available via 'errno'.
LWIP_SOCKET_SET_ERRNO has been removed - 'errno' is always set - and required!
* httpd LWIP_HTTPD_CGI_SSI: httpd_cgi_handler() has an additional parameter "struct fs_file *"

++ Port changes:

* tcpip_trycallback() was renamed to tcpip_callbackmsg_trycallback() to avoid confusion
with tcpip_try_callback()
* compatibility headers: moved from 'src/include/posix' to 'src/include/compat/posix',
'src/include/compat/stdc' etc.
* The IPv6 implementation now supports address scopes. (See LWIP_IPV6_SCOPES documentation
and ip6_zone.h for more documentation)
* LWIP_HOOK_DHCP_APPEND_OPTIONS() has changed, see description in opt.h (options_out_len is not
available in struct dhcp any more)
* Added debug helper asserts to ensure threading/locking requirements are met (define
LWIP_MARK_TCPIP_THREAD() and LWIP_ASSERT_CORE_LOCKED()).
* Added sys_mbox_trypost_fromisr() and tcpip_callbackmsg_trycallback_fromisr()
These can be used to post preallocated messages from an ISR to the tcpip thread
(e.g. when using FreeRTOS)

(2.0.2)

++ Application changes:

* slipif: The way to pass serial port number has changed. netif->num is not
supported any more, netif->state is interpreted as an u8_t port number now
(it's not a POINTER to an u8_t any more!)

(2.0.1)

++ Application changes:

* UDP does NOT receive multicast traffic from ALL netifs on an UDP PCB bound to a specific
netif any more. Users need to bind to IP_ADDR_ANY to receive multicast traffic and compare
ip_current_netif() to the desired netif for every packet.
See bug #49662 for an explanation.

(2.0.0)

++ Application changes:

* Changed netif "up" flag handling to be an administrative flag (as opposed to the previous meaning of
"ip4-address-valid", a netif will now not be used for transmission if not up) -> even a DHCP netif
has to be set "up" before starting the DHCP client
* Added IPv6 support (dual-stack or IPv4/IPv6 only)
* Changed ip_addr_t to be a union in dual-stack mode (use ip4_addr_t where referring to IPv4 only).
* Major rewrite of SNMP (added MIB parser that creates code stubs for custom MIBs);
supports SNMPv2c (experimental v3 support)
* Moved some core applications from contrib repository to src/apps (and include/lwip/apps)

+++ Raw API:
* Changed TCP listen backlog: removed tcp_accepted(), added the function pair tcp_backlog_delayed()/
tcp_backlog_accepted() to explicitly delay backlog handling on a connection pcb

+++ Socket API:
* Added an implementation for posix sendmsg()
* Added LWIP_FIONREAD_LINUXMODE that makes ioctl/FIONREAD return the size of the next pending datagram

++ Port changes

+++ new files:
* MANY new and moved files!
* Added src/Filelists.mk for use in Makefile projects
* Continued moving stack-internal parts from abc.h to abc_priv.h in sub-folder "priv"
to let abc.h only contain the actual application programmer's API

+++ sys layer:
* Made LWIP_TCPIP_CORE_LOCKING==1 the default as it usually performs better than
the traditional message passing (although with LWIP_COMPAT_MUTEX you are still
open to priority inversion, so this is not recommended any more)
* Added LWIP_NETCONN_SEM_PER_THREAD to use one "op_completed" semaphore per thread
instead of using one per netconn (these semaphores are used even with core locking
enabled as some longer lasting functions like big writes still need to delay)
* Added generalized abstraction for itoa(), strnicmp(), stricmp() and strnstr()
in def.h (to be overridden in cc.h) instead of config
options for netbiosns, httpd, dns, etc. ...
* New abstraction for hton* and ntoh* functions in def.h.
To override them, use the following in cc.h:
#define lwip_htons(x) <your_htons>
#define lwip_htonl(x) <your_htonl>

+++ new options:
* TODO

+++ new pools:
* Added LWIP_MEMPOOL_* (declare/init/alloc/free) to declare private memp pools
that share memp.c code but do not have to be made global via lwippools.h
* Added pools for IPv6, MPU_COMPATIBLE, dns-api, netif-api, etc.
* added hook LWIP_HOOK_MEMP_AVAILABLE() to get informed when a memp pool was empty and an item
is now available

* Signature of LWIP_HOOK_VLAN_SET macro was changed

* LWIP_DECLARE_MEMORY_ALIGNED() may be used to declare aligned memory buffers (mem/memp)
or to move buffers to dedicated memory using compiler attributes

* Standard C headers are used to define sized types and printf formatters
(disable by setting LWIP_NO_STDINT_H=1 or LWIP_NO_INTTYPES_H=1 if your compiler
does not support these)


++ Major bugfixes/improvements

* Added IPv6 support (dual-stack or IPv4/IPv6 only)
* Major rewrite of PPP (incl. keep-up with apache pppd)
see doc/ppp.txt for an upgrading how-to
* Major rewrite of SNMP (incl. MIB parser)
* Fixed timing issues that might have lead to losing a DHCP lease
* Made rx processing path more robust against crafted errors
* TCP window scaling support
* modification of api modules to support FreeRTOS-MPU (don't pass stack-pointers to other threads)
* made DNS client more robust
* support PBUF_REF for RX packets
* LWIP_NETCONN_FULLDUPLEX allows netconn/sockets to be used for reading/writing from separate
threads each (needs LWIP_NETCONN_SEM_PER_THREAD)
* Moved and reordered stats (mainly memp/mib2)

(1.4.0)
