ESP-NETIF

The purpose of ESP-NETIF library is twofold:

  • It provides an abstraction layer for the application on top of the TCP/IP stack. This will allow applications to choose between IP stacks in the future.

  • The APIs it provides are thread safe, even if the underlying TCP/IP stack APIs are not.

ESP-IDF currently implements ESP-NETIF for the lwIP TCP/IP stack only. However, the adapter itself is TCP/IP implementation agnostic and different implementations are possible.

Some ESP-NETIF API functions are intended to be called by application code, for example to get/set interface IP addresses, configure DHCP. Other functions are intended for internal ESP-IDF use by the network driver layer.

In many cases, applications do not need to call ESP-NETIF APIs directly as they are called from the default network event handlers.

ESP-NETIF interaction

A) User code, boiler plate

Overall application interaction with a specific IO driver for communication media and configured TCP/IP network stack is abstracted using ESP-NETIF APIs and outlined as below:

  1. Initialization code

  1. Initializes IO driver

  2. Creates a new instance of ESP-NETIF and configure with

  • ESP-NETIF specific options (flags, behaviour, name)

  • Network stack options (netif init and input functions, not publicly available)

  • IO driver specific options (transmit, free rx buffer functions, IO driver handle)

  1. Attaches the IO driver handle to the ESP-NETIF instance created in the above steps

  2. Configures event handlers

  • use default handlers for common interfaces defined in IO drivers; or define a specific handlers for customised behaviour/new interfaces

  • register handlers for app related events (such as IP lost/acquired)

  1. Interaction with network interfaces using ESP-NETIF API

  • Getting and setting TCP/IP related parameters (DHCP, IP, etc)

  • Receiving IP events (connect/disconnect)

  • Controlling application lifecycle (set interface up/down)

B) Communication driver, IO driver, media driver

Communication driver plays these two important roles in relation with ESP-NETIF:

  1. Event handlers: Define behaviour patterns of interaction with ESP-NETIF (for example: ethernet link-up -> turn netif on)

  2. Glue IO layer: Adapts the input/output functions to use ESP-NETIF transmit, receive and free receive buffer

  • Installs driver_transmit to appropriate ESP-NETIF object, so that outgoing packets from network stack are passed to the IO driver

  • Calls esp_netif_receive() to pass incoming data to network stack

C) ESP-NETIF

ESP-NETIF is an intermediary between an IO driver and a network stack, connecting packet data path between these two. As that it provides a set of interfaces for attaching a driver to ESP-NETIF object (runtime) and configuring a network stack (compile time). In addition to that a set of API is provided to control network interface lifecycle and its TCP/IP properties. As an overview, the ESP-NETIF public interface could be divided into these 6 groups:

  1. Initialization APIs (to create and configure ESP-NETIF instance)

  2. Input/Output API (for passing data between IO driver and network stack)

  3. Event or Action API

  • Used for network interface lifecycle management

  • ESP-NETIF provides building blocks for designing event handlers

  1. Setters and Getters for basic network interface properties

  2. Network stack abstraction: enabling user interaction with TCP/IP stack

  • Set interface up or down

  • DHCP server and client API

  • DNS API

  1. Driver conversion utilities

D) Network stack

Network stack has no public interaction with application code with regard to public interfaces and shall be fully abstracted by ESP-NETIF API.

E) ESP-NETIF L2 TAP Interface

The ESP-NETIF L2 TAP interface is ESP-IDF mechanism utilized to access Data Link Layer (L2 per OSI/ISO) for frame reception and transmission from user application. Its typical usage in embedded world might be implementation of non-IP related protocols such as PTP, Wake on LAN and others. Note that only Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) is currently supported.

From user perspective, the ESP-NETIF L2 TAP interface is accessed using file descriptors of VFS which provides a file-like interfacing (using functions like open(), read(), write(), etc). Refer to 虚拟文件系统组件 to learn more.

There is only one ESP-NETIF L2 TAP interface device (path name) available. However multiple file descriptors with different configuration can be opened at a time since the ESP-NETIF L2 TAP interface can be understood as generic entry point to Layer 2 infrastructure. Important is then specific configuration of particular file descriptor. It can be configured to give an access to specific Network Interface identified by if_key (e.g. ETH_DEF) and to filter only specific frames based on their type (e.g. Ethernet type in case of IEEE 802.3). Filtering only specific frames is crucial since the ESP-NETIF L2 TAP needs to exist along with IP stack and so the IP related traffic (IP, ARP, etc.) should not be passed directly to the user application. Even though such option is still configurable, it is not recommended in standard use cases. Filtering is also advantageous from a perspective the user’s application gets access only to frame types it is interested in and the remaining traffic is either passed to other L2 TAP file descriptors or to IP stack.

ESP-NETIF L2 TAP Interface Usage Manual

Initialization

To be able to use the ESP-NETIF L2 TAP interface, it needs to be enabled in Kconfig by CONFIG_ESP_NETIF_L2_TAP first and then registered by esp_vfs_l2tap_intf_register() prior usage of any VFS function.

open()

Once the ESP-NETIF L2 TAP is registered, it can be opened at path name “/dev/net/tap”. The same path name can be opened multiple times up to CONFIG_ESP_NETIF_L2_TAP_MAX_FDS and multiple file descriptors with with different configuration may access the Data Link Layer frames.

The ESP-NETIF L2 TAP can be opened with O_NONBLOCK file status flag to the read() does not block. Note that the write() may block in current implementation when accessing a Network interface since it is a shared resource among multiple ESP-NETIF L2 TAP file descriptors and IP stack, and there is currently no queuing mechanism deployed. The file status flag can be retrieved and modified using fcntl().

On success, open() returns the new file descriptor (a nonnegative integer). On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

ioctl()

The newly opened ESP-NETIF L2 TAP file descriptor needs to be configured prior its usage since it is not bounded to any specific Network Interface and no frame type filter is configured. The following configuration options are available to do so:

  • L2TAP_S_INTF_DEVICE - bounds the file descriptor to specific Network Interface which is identified by its if_key. ESP-NETIF Network Interface if_key is passed to ioctl() as the third parameter. Note that default Network Interfaces if_key’s used in ESP-IDF can be found in esp_netif/include/esp_netif_defaults.h.

  • L2TAP_S_DEVICE_DRV_HNDL - is other way how to bound the file descriptor to specific Network Interface. In this case the Network interface is identified directly by IO Driver handle (e.g. esp_eth_handle_t in case of Ethernet). The IO Driver handle is passed to ioctl() as the third parameter.

  • L2TAP_S_RCV_FILTER - sets the filter to frames with this type to be passed to the file descriptor. In case of Ethernet frames, the frames are to be filtered based on Length/Ethernet type field. In case the filter value is set less than or equal to 0x05DC, the Ethernet type field is considered to represent IEEE802.3 Length Field and all frames with values in interval <0, 0x05DC> at that field are to be passed to the file descriptor. The IEEE802.2 logical link control (LLC) resolution is then expected to be performed by user’s application. In case the filter value is set greater than 0x05DC, the Ethernet type field is considered to represent protocol identification and only frames which are equal to the set value are to be passed to the file descriptor.

All above set configuration options have getter counterpart option to read the current settings.

警告

The file descriptor needs to be firstly bounded to specific Network Interface by L2TAP_S_INTF_DEVICE or L2TAP_S_DEVICE_DRV_HNDL to be L2TAP_S_RCV_FILTER option available.

备注

VLAN tagged frames are currently not recognized. If user needs to process VLAN tagged frames, they need set filter to be equal to VLAN tag (i.e. 0x8100 or 0x88A8) and process the VLAN tagged frames in user application.

备注

L2TAP_S_DEVICE_DRV_HNDL is particularly useful when user’s application does not require usage of IP stack and so ESP-NETIF is not required to be initialized too. As a result, Network Interface cannot be identified by its if_key and hence it needs to be identified directly by its IO Driver handle.

On success, ioctl() returns 0. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
EBADF - not a valid file descriptor.
EACCES - option change is denied in this state (e.g. file descriptor has not be bounded to Network interface yet).
EINVAL - invalid configuration argument. Ethernet type filter is already used by other file descriptor on that same Network interface.
ENODEV - no such Network Interface which is tried to be assigned to the file descriptor exists.
ENOSYS - unsupported operation, passed configuration option does not exists.

fcntl()

fcntl() is used to manipulate with properties of opened ESP-NETIF L2 TAP file descriptor.

The following commands manipulate the status flags associated with file descriptor:

  • F_GETFD - the function returns the file descriptor flags, the third argument is ignored.

  • F_SETFD - sets the file descriptor flags to the value specified by the third argument. Zero is returned.

On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
EBADF - not a valid file descriptor.
ENOSYS - unsupported command.

read()

Opened and configured ESP-NETIF L2 TAP file descriptor can be accessed by read() to get inbound frames. The read operation can be either blocking or non-blocking based on actual state of O_NONBLOCK file status flag. When the file status flag is set blocking, the read operation waits until a frame is received and context is switched to other task. When the file status flag is set non-blocking, the read operation returns immediately. In such case, either a frame is returned if it was already queued or the function indicates the queue is empty. The number of queued frames associated with one file descriptor is limited by CONFIG_ESP_NETIF_L2_TAP_RX_QUEUE_SIZE Kconfig option. Once the number of queued frames reach configured threshold, the newly arriving frames are dropped until the queue has enough room to accept incoming traffic (Tail Drop queue management).

On success, read() returns the number of bytes read. Zero is returned when size of the destination buffer is 0. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
EBADF - not a valid file descriptor.
EAGAIN - the file descriptor has been marked non-blocking (O_NONBLOCK), and the read would block.

write()

A raw Data Link Layer frame can be sent to Network Interface via opened and configured ESP-NETIF L2 TAP file descriptor. User’s application is responsible to construct the whole frame except for fields which are added automatically by the physical interface device. The following fields need to be constructed by the user’s application in case of Ethernet link: source/destination MAC addresses, Ethernet type, actual protocol header and user data. See below for more information about Ethernet frame structure.

+-------------------+-------------------+-------------+-------------------------------     --+
|  Destination MAC  |     Source MAC    | Type/Length | Payload (protocol header/data) ...   |
+-------------------+-------------------+-------------+-------------------------------     --+
        6B                   6B                2B                 0-1486B

In other words, there is no additional frame processing performed by the ESP-NETIF L2 TAP interface. It only checks the Ethernet type of the frame is the same as the filter configured in the file descriptor. If the Ethernet type is different, an error is returned and the frame is not sent. Note that the write() may block in current implementation when accessing a Network interface since it is a shared resource among multiple ESP-NETIF L2 TAP file descriptors and IP stack, and there is currently no queuing mechanism deployed.

On success, write() returns the number of bytes written. Zero is returned when size of the input buffer is 0. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
EBADF - not a valid file descriptor.
EBADMSG - Ethernet type of the frame is different then file descriptor configured filter.
EIO - Network interface not available or busy.

close()

Opened ESP-NETIF L2 TAP file descriptor can be closed by the close() to free its allocated resources. The ESP-NETIF L2 TAP implementation of close() may block. On the other hand, it is thread safe and can be called from different task than the file descriptor is actually used. If such situation occurs and one task is blocked in I/O operation and another task tries to close the file descriptor, the first task is unblocked. The first’s task read operation then ends with error.

On success, close() returns zero. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
EBADF - not a valid file descriptor.

select()

Select is used in a standard way, just CONFIG_VFS_SUPPORT_SELECT needs to be enabled to be the select() function available.

ESP-NETIF programmer’s manual

Please refer to the example section for basic initialization of default interfaces:

For more specific cases please consult this guide: ESP-NETIF Custom I/O Driver.

WiFi default initialization

The initialization code as well as registering event handlers for default interfaces, such as softAP and station, are provided in separate APIs to facilitate simple startup code for most applications:

Please note that these functions return the esp_netif handle, i.e. a pointer to a network interface object allocated and configured with default settings, which as a consequence, means that:

  • The created object has to be destroyed if a network de-initialization is provided by an application using esp_netif_destroy_default_wifi().

  • These default interfaces must not be created multiple times, unless the created handle is deleted using esp_netif_destroy().

  • When using Wifi in AP+STA mode, both these interfaces has to be created.

This function behaves differently if DHCP server or client is enabled

If DHCP client is enabled, main and backup DNS servers will be updated automatically from the DHCP lease if the relevant DHCP options are set. Fallback DNS Server is never updated from the DHCP lease and is designed to be set via this API. If DHCP client is disabled, all DNS server types can be set via this API only.

If DHCP server is enabled, the Main DNS Server setting is used by the DHCP server to provide a DNS Server option to DHCP clients (Wi-Fi stations).

  • The default Main DNS server is typically the IP of the DHCP server itself.

  • This function can override it by setting server type ESP_NETIF_DNS_MAIN.

  • Other DNS Server types are not supported for the DHCP server.

  • To propagate the DNS info to client, please stop the DHCP server before using this API.

参数

esp_netif – instance to attach the wifi AP to

返回

  • ESP_OK on success

  • ESP_FAIL if attach failed

esp_err_t esp_wifi_set_default_wifi_sta_handlers(void)

Sets default wifi event handlers for STA interface.

返回

  • ESP_OK on success, error returned from esp_event_handler_register if failed

esp_err_t esp_wifi_set_default_wifi_ap_handlers(void)

Sets default wifi event handlers for AP interface.

返回

  • ESP_OK on success, error returned from esp_event_handler_register if failed

esp_err_t esp_wifi_clear_default_wifi_driver_and_handlers(void *esp_netif)

Clears default wifi event handlers for supplied network interface.

参数

esp_netif – instance of corresponding if object

返回

  • ESP_OK on success, error returned from esp_event_handler_register if failed

esp_netif_t *esp_netif_create_default_wifi_ap(void)

Creates default WIFI AP. In case of any init error this API aborts.

备注

The API creates esp_netif object with default WiFi access point config, attaches the netif to wifi and registers default wifi handlers.

返回

pointer to esp-netif instance

esp_netif_t *esp_netif_create_default_wifi_sta(void)

Creates default WIFI STA. In case of any init error this API aborts.

备注

The API creates esp_netif object with default WiFi station config, attaches the netif to wifi and registers default wifi handlers.

返回

pointer to esp-netif instance

void esp_netif_destroy_default_wifi(void *esp_netif)

Destroys default WIFI netif created with esp_netif_create_default_wifi_…() API.

备注

This API unregisters wifi handlers and detaches the created object from the wifi. (this function is a no-operation if esp_netif is NULL)

参数

esp_netif[in] object to detach from WiFi and destroy

esp_netif_t *esp_netif_create_wifi(wifi_interface_t wifi_if, esp_netif_inherent_config_t *esp_netif_config)

Creates esp_netif WiFi object based on the custom configuration.

Attention

This API DOES NOT register default handlers!

参数
  • wifi_if[in] type of wifi interface

  • esp_netif_config – inherent esp-netif configuration pointer

返回

pointer to esp-netif instance

esp_err_t esp_netif_create_default_wifi_mesh_netifs(esp_netif_t **p_netif_sta, esp_netif_t **p_netif_ap)

Creates default STA and AP network interfaces for esp-mesh.

Both netifs are almost identical to the default station and softAP, but with DHCP client and server disabled. Please note that the DHCP client is typically enabled only if the device is promoted to a root node.

Returns created interfaces which could be ignored setting parameters to NULL if an application code does not need to save the interface instances for further processing.

参数
  • p_netif_sta[out] pointer where the resultant STA interface is saved (if non NULL)

  • p_netif_ap[out] pointer where the resultant AP interface is saved (if non NULL)

返回

ESP_OK on success
