Having the variable namining ret for a pointer makes the code looks odd,
ret looks like a value variable. Rename ret to pcb.
Also simplify the code in the do {} while() loop.

Both of the multicast checks should be skipped if the address type
is unicast. This bug accidentally caused only one of them to be
skipped, resulting in some unnecessary performance overhead.

Couple of more cleanups for task #14314 involving includes:
1) if.h name should match if_api.c due to LwIP convention and history.
Standard if.h include can be used with compatibility header in
posix/net/if.h
2) API header (if.h) should not be included in core code. This include
has been eliminated by moving the definition of IF_NAMESIZE to
netif.h as NETIF_NAMESIZE. This is now the canonical definition
and IF_NAMESIZE just maps to it to provide the standard type
Now that tcp_connect() always determines the outgoing netif with a
route lookup, we can compute the effective MSS without doing the same
route lookup again. The outgoing netif is already known from one
other location that computes the MSS, so we can eliminate a redundant
route lookup there too. Reduce some macro clutter as a side effect.
This patch adds full support for IPv6 address scopes, thereby aiming
to be compliant with IPv6 standards in general and RFC 4007 in
particular. The high-level summary is that link-local addresses are
now meaningful only in the context of their own link, guaranteeing
full isolation between links (and their addresses) in this respect.
This isolation even allows multiple interfaces to have the same
link-local addresses locally assigned.
The implementation achieves this by extending the lwIP IPv6 address
structure with a zone field that, for addresses that have a scope,
carries the scope's zone in which that address has meaning. The zone
maps to one or more interfaces. By default, lwIP uses a policy that
provides a 1:1 mapping between links and interfaces, and considers
all other addresses unscoped, corresponding to the default policy
sketched in RFC 4007 Sec. 6. The implementation allows for replacing
the default policy with a custom policy if desired, though.
The lwIP core implementation has been changed to provide somewhat of
a balance between correctness and efficiency on on side, and backward
compatibility on the other. In particular, while the application would
ideally always provide a zone for a scoped address, putting this in as
a requirement would likely break many applications. Instead, the API
accepts both "properly zoned" IPv6 addresses and addresses that, while
scoped, "lack" a zone. lwIP will try to add a zone as soon as possible
for efficiency reasons, in particular from TCP/UDP/RAW PCB bind and
connect calls, but this may fail, and sendto calls may bypass that
anyway. Ultimately, a zone is always added when an IP packet is sent
when needed, because the link-layer lwIP code (and ND6 in particualar)
requires that all addresses be properly zoned for correctness: for
example, to provide isolation between links in the ND6 destination
cache. All this applies to packet output only, because on packet
input, all scoped addresses will be given a zone automatically.
It is also worth remarking that on output, no attempt is made to stop
outgoing packets with addresses for a zone not matching the outgoing
interface. However, unless the application explicitly provides
addresses that will result in such zone violations, the core API
implementation (and the IPv6 routing algorithm in particular) itself
will never take decisions that result in zone violations itself.
This patch adds a new header file, ip6_zone.h, which contains comments
that explain several implementation aspects in a bit more detail.
For now, it is possible to disable scope support by changing the new
LWIP_IPV6_SCOPES configuration option. For users of the core API, it
is important to note that scoped addresses that are locally assigned
to a netif must always have a zone set; the standard netif address
assignment functions always do this on behalf of the caller, though.
Also, core API users will want to enable LWIP_IPV6_SCOPES_DEBUG at
least initially when upgrading, to ensure that all addresses are
properly initialized.
This renames if.c to if_api.c in order to avoid using a common source
file name which may collide with other source files from non-LwIP
projects. See discussion in task #14314
The tests were in to catch user errors, but they seem to get in the way of application programming :-)
The checks in *_send() remain active to catch when PCB source and destination address types do not match

netif_ip6_addr_set_state() relies on being able to access the old
address on invalidation, for example in order to invalidate PCBs
and leave the correct solicited-node MLD group.
This commit cleans up the remaining instance of global variable
"index" shadowing caused by using local variables and function
parameters named "index"
These were introduced in the recent interface index API commits
Adjusts assert logic from 9c80a66253
to allow for a netif driver's init callback to manually override
the number. When the init function is taking care of the unique
assignment, the assert simply checks that a valid number was provided
This commit adds an LWIP_ASSERT to detect when netif_num overflows and
we no longer have unique numbers per netif. Unique netif numbers are
needed to support interface indexes (task #14314)
The only cases where this could occur are with a deployment that attempts
to use the maximum 256 netifs at the same time or where netifs are being
constantly adding and removed. Neither of these use cases fit the
lightweight goals of LwIP

- Code duplication with etharp_raw()
- No great effect on perfomance
- May make reworking PBUF handling code more complicated (see bug #49914)
- The check for p->type == PBUF_REF is a strange special case, too
- Simon also voted to remove it

Eliminate ETHADDR32_COPY macro - it cannot be used in ETH_PAD_SIZE case. I could have kept it by defining it to ETHADDR16_COPY in case of ETH_PAD_SIZE, but I did not consider it worth another #ifdef mess.
