Hi, this contains at first some small fix for the netdev notifier which I deteced while hacking 6lowpan stateful compression support. I rework the debugfs entry for the stateful compression. Now each context entry for a 6LoWPAN contains has his own subdirectory (named as his CID value). In this subdirectories there exists the following files for manipulating the context entry: - active: If the context belongs to the table or not. - compression: the compression flag according rfc6775. - prefix: ipv6 prefix in xxxx:xxxx:....:xxxx form. - prefix_length: the length of the ipv6 prefix. This offers a setting per property instead doing remember the full context and doing echo "$FULL_CONTEXT_INFORMATION" > ctx_table. These files should be prepared to move into the sysfs directory when it seems to running fine. There exist one file "show" inside $LOWPAN_IFACE/contexts/. This file is for a "pretty-printout" for the current context table. I use the same format-string like RIOT-OS, example: cid|prefix |C ------------------------------------------------- 0| 2001::/64 |1 1| 2001::1/128|1 2| 2001::5/128|1 7| 2002::/64 |1 difference here is that RIOT shows the lifetime, but I currently see no sense to handle the lifetime in kernelspace. Also I added support to clean the context table when doing a "ifdown". The reason is that IPv6 interface will also drop all address information while doing a ifdown and a 6LoWPAN should not use previous context information after ifup again. - Alex changes since v2: - removes some unnecessary WARN_ONCE for parameter which can't be above of 15 by masking with 0xf. - remove some "!!" when function returns bool. - change naming from compression flag to "compression" instead "C", but leave it in "show" as "C". - change that "show" will display "compression" instead "active", reported by Lukasz Duda. - remove comment about which was hard to understand. I removed it instead confuse other developers. It should describe that the compression flag indicates to use compression on tx side only if is set. contexts on receive will always be used.
