On failure, nd6_get_next_hop_entry() returns an ERR_ type negative
error code. ethip6_output() erroneously assumed that that error would
always be ERR_MEM, even though it may also be ERR_RTE in practice.
With this patch, ethip6_output() simply forwards the returned error.
This commit increments the ip.drop statistic when an IP packet is
dropped due to no matching netif found and forwarding is disabled
This adds parity to the other places where mib2.ipinaddrerrors and
mib2.ipindiscards are incremented which also increment ip.drop
All the reset part of the code accessing netif->loop_first has lock protection,
the only missing part is "while (netif->loop_first != NULL)".
Fix it by adding lock protect around the while loop.
Also convert the code to use while{} loop instead of do .. while{} loop,
then we can avoid NULL test for in pointer in each loop and reduce a level of indent.

While TCP_OVERSIZE works only when tcp_write() is used with
TCP_WRITE_FLAG_COPY, this new code achieves
similar benefits for the use case that the caller manages their own
send buffers and passes successive chunks of those to tcp_write()
without TCP_WRITE_FLAG_COPY.
In particular, if a buffer is passed to
tcp_write() that is adjacent in memory to the previously passed
buffer, it will be combined into the previous ROM pbuf reference
whenever possible, thus extending that ROM pbuf rather than allocating
a new ROM pbuf.
For the aforementioned use case, the advantages of this code are
twofold:
1) fewer ROM pbufs need to be allocated to send the same data, and,
2) the MAC layer gets outgoing TCP packets with shorter pbuf chains.

Change lwIP UDP API to match socket behavior. Multicast traffic is now only received on a UDP PCB (and therefore on a UDP socket/netconn) when the PCB is bound to IP_ADDR_ANY.
Generally speaking, packets with a loopback destination address -
127.0.0.1 for IPv4 and ::1 for IPv6 - should not be accepted on
non-loopback interfaces. For IPv4, this is implied by RFC 1122
Sec. 3.2.1.3. For IPv6, it is mandated by RFC 4291 Sec. 2.5.3.
Failure to perform this filtering may have security implications, as
applications that bind sockets to loopback addresses may not expect
that nodes on the local external network be able to produce traffic
that will arrive at such sockets.
With this patch, lwIP drops packets that are sent to a loopback
address but do not originate from the interface that has the loopback
address assigned to it. This approach works regardless of whether it
is lwIP or the system using it that implements a loopback netif. The
only exception that must be made is for configurations that enable
netif packet loopback but disable the lwIP loopback netif: in that
case, loopback packets are routed across non-loopback netifs and would
thus be lost by the new filter as well.
For IPv6, loopback-destined packets are also no longer forwarded; the
IPv4 forwarding code already had a check for that.
As a small performance improvement, the IPv6 link-local/loopback
address check is now performed only once per packet rather than
repeatedly for every candidate netif.
In general, netif_default may be NULL, and various places in the code
already check for this case before attempting to dereference the
netif_default pointer. Some places do not perform this check though,
and may cause null pointer dereferences if netif_default is not set.
This patch adds NULL checks to those places as well.
bind() may change IP type when previous type is IPADDR_TYPE_ANY
connect() IP type must exactly match bind IP type
Use correct IPADDRx_ANY type when calling ip_route()
This commit returns LwIP to previous behavior where if the next unsent
segment can't be sent due to the current send window, we start the
persist timer. This is done to engage window probing in the case that
the subsequent window update from the receiver is dropped, thus
preventing connection deadlock
This commit refines the previous logic to only target the following case:
1) Next unsent segment doesn't fit within the send window (not
congestion) and there is some room in the window
2) Unacked queue is empty (otherwise data is inflight and the RTO timer
will take care of any dropped window updates)
See commit d8f090a759 (which removed this
behavior) to reference the old logic. The old logic falsely started the
persit timer when the RTO timer was already running.
This commit cleans up a duplicate #if check for LWIP_WND_SCALE in init.c
which was already under #if LWIP_WND_SCALE
This commit also improves documentation for TCP_WND in the window scaling
case to communicate TCP_WND is always the calculated (scaled) window value,
not the value reported in the TCP header
Our developers were confused by having to set both the window and scaling
factor and only after studying the usage of TCP_WND throughout the code, was
it determined to be the calculated (scaled) window
p needs to point to LWIP_MEM_ALIGN(memp_pools[i]->base) otherwise it will cause
assertion in overflow checking.

When memp_free_pool was split out from memp_free (c838e1ed5b),
the check for freeing the null pointer was lost.
This resulted in the null value being put back in the list of free
objects, causing all subsequent allocations of that type to fail.
The mld_group structure no longer has a 'netif' field, as such
structures are now linked from the corresponding netif structure.
For conditional checksumming, use the calling function's netif
reference instead.
