A file larger than the output buffer is sent in two phases: the first
buffer goes out in MSS-sized pieces, with o_idx walking through it, and
what is left is then streamed from flash a chunk at a time into outbuf
from offset 0.
The continuation branch never reset o_idx, so it kept the offset the first
phase had left it at, while uip_rexmit() retransmits from outbuf + o_idx.
A lost continuation segment was therefore retransmitted as the bytes 1460
further into the buffer, which the client accepts as the missing data, and
with o_idx + slen past the 2500-byte buffer it also read whatever xdata
follows outbuf.
Reproduced on a SWTGW218AS by dropping 15% of the switch's TCP segments:
seven of eight fetches of a 21 kB static came back the right length and
the wrong content, each first differing at a fixed phase of the 1460-byte
chunk. With o_idx reset the retransmission repeats the chunk it sent.
The o_idx += slen right after slen = 0 went too: it added nothing.

uip_init() does not set uip_conn, and httpd_init() runs right after it, so
the assignment went through a pointer nothing had assigned yet.
It has stayed invisible because the startup code does clear xdata: uip_conn
is NULL rather than garbage, appstate sits 28 bytes into struct uip_conn, and
the byte therefore lands at xdata 0x1C. With the current map that is inside
the command line buffer, at an offset nothing reads while the line is empty,
and cmd_editor_init() runs later anyway.
Nothing is broken today, but it is a write to an address that has nothing to
do with the state being set, and it moves the moment the struct grows or the
map shifts. Address the connection directly.
A device on an aggregate is learned against whichever member the frame came in
on, and the hash moves that around: the same address changes port every time
the flow mix changes. The table was telling the truth and there was no way to
read it, since nothing on the page or the console says those two ports are one
link.
port_lag_of() already exists and already knows the answer, so both views ask
it. The console prints LAG1 in place of the member, and /l2.json carries a
"lag" field beside the port, 0 when the port stands alone, which is the shape
/stp.json already uses.
Costs 151 bytes of BANK1.
* uip: time out an ESTABLISHED connection whose peer went silent
uIP has no keepalive and no idle timeout for an ESTABLISHED connection, so
a peer that vanishes without FIN or RST holds it open forever. A crashed
client does it, and so does a SYN caught while the switch is still
booting. With UIP_CONF_MAX_CONNECTIONS = 1 that wedges the single slot:
the web UI stops answering, port 80 no longer even SYN-ACKs, and only a
power cycle recovers it. Every other TCP state already has an exit path
(UIP_MAXRTX, UIP_TIME_WAIT_TIMEOUT); idle ESTABLISHED was the one hole.
Close it inside uIP rather than in httpd, so any future TCP service is
covered too. The retransmission timer is unused while nothing is in
flight, so the idle count lives in it: a 1 Hz strobe derived from the
uip_periodic() rate ages it, any arriving segment clears it, and past the
limit the connection is aborted through the same path as UIP_MAXRTX. Two
new options in uipopt.h, default off; this project enables 30 s.
httpd also joins uip_timedout() to its cleanup: it only handled closed
and aborted, so both this timeout and the existing UIP_MAXRTX one would
have left the transfer state stuck on a dead connection.
* uip: keep the tuning values out of the prose
The comment named the timeout and the tick rate, which go stale the
moment either constant is edited. It now says why an idle connection
is aged out and leaves the numbers to the defines under it.
The /cmd path carried its own copy of the plain-text response header,
which was the same string page_impl.c already keeps in
HTTP_RESPONCE_TXT, minus one difference: the shared one never said
Connection: close.
This httpd closes after every response, so a reply that does not
advertise it invites the browser to reuse the socket and lose the next
request. HTTP_RESPONCE_JSON has always said so; the text one was the
odd one out, and send_config() and send_cmd_log() were answering
without it.
The copy is gone and the shared string carries the header. The check
for a command that printed nothing now compares against the length
strtox() returned instead of sizeof() on the macro.
Test the busy flag and compare the entry's MAC against the SFR data
registers directly instead of going through the sfr_data copy, and
rewrite TBL_DATA_0 in place rather than reassembling all four bytes.
Smaller and faster on the deepest httpd path.

The L2 page's Delete button removes any table entry by index, including
the entry for the switch's own MAC on the CPU port. Without that entry
unicast to the management address is no longer delivered to the CPU, so
management goes dark until the CPU happens to transmit again and the
entry is relearned. Compare the entry's MAC against uip_ethaddr before
rewriting it and answer result 0 for the switch's own address, as for a
missing entry. The compare is inline: this handler sits at the bottom of
the uIP call chain, where every extra call level costs internal RAM.
Three ways the answer could mislead the caller, all in the paths that
matter most when something is wrong.
The capture sat in write_char(), so anything printed through
print_string_no_syslog() escaped it. That is exactly the replies of the
syslog commands, which deliberately avoid the syslog path: "syslog on"
answered with the bare address and no sentence around it, "syslog off"
answered with nothing at all. Moving the capture one level down, into
write_char_no_syslog(), catches both paths and costs nothing, since
write_char() reaches it anyway.
On a parse error send_bad_request() rewrote the buffer from the start,
throwing away the very text that explains the error and replacing it
with the 400 HTML page. Keeping the captured text and restating only the
status keeps the parser's own message; "400 NO" is as long as "200 OK",
so the header does not have to be rebuilt.
An overlong listing was cut at the buffer end with nothing to show for
it, so a clipped answer read as a short one. It now ends in a marker,
and the reserved room is accounted for in the guard.
While here: a command that configures something prints nothing, and an
empty body reads the same as "nothing ran", so a successful silent
command now answers "OK".
No internal RAM and no xdata; 174 bytes of BANK1, which has 7356 left.
POST /cmd runs the command and answers with an empty 200, so a caller cannot
tell "done" from "nothing happened", and whatever the command prints only
reaches the serial console. Reading a register over the network needs a second
channel just to see the answer.
write_char() is the one funnel every console helper goes through, and it already
tees into the syslog buffer. A third sink, live only while the httpd runs a
command that arrived over the network, puts the same bytes into the response
behind the header. Serial and syslog keep getting their copy.
The capture stops at the end of the response buffer, so a long listing is
truncated rather than overrunning it.
BANK1 grows 39 bytes and the common area 52. One byte of xdata, BANK2 unchanged.
login.html asks for i18n.js, but the file is not on the short list a
client may have before it authenticates, so the request is answered with
a redirect back to the login page and the strings stay as the English
that is baked into the markup.
The file carries only the interface text, the same text the page already
ships untranslated, so serving it before login gives nothing away.
The enabled flag is a flag, so say bool. The header length no longer needs
to live in xdata: it was put there when a local would not link, and there
is room for it here.
The overview names the row after the JSON key, so the syslog row said
"syslog_server_ip" while carrying only an address. It now says
"syslog_server" and carries the port with it.
A POST /cmd whose body arrives in a separate TCP segment from the headers
executed nothing: handle_post() read the body from the segment that
carried the request line, found it empty, and answered 200 OK. Python's
urllib and requests both write headers and body separately, so every
scripted command from those clients became a silent no-op. POST /login had
the same hole. The multipart endpoints were fixed earlier; this covers the
plain ones.
When the first segment holds fewer body bytes than Content-Length
announces, the bytes accumulate in config_buf (idle outside multipart
uploads) and the connection waits in TSTATE_POSTBODY; once the announced
length is in, the endpoint runs against the buffer. The /cmd and /login
executions move into run_cmd_body() and run_login_body() so both paths
share them; the 200 OK builder they duplicated becomes send_ok(), and
run_login_body() checks the pwd= prefix instead of skipping four bytes
blindly.
The announced length is the contract on both paths. A body that arrives
with the headers is terminated at Content-Length before it runs, so
pipelined bytes after it are not executed as commands the way the old
code did. A request without a usable Content-Length answers 411: without
one there is no way to know when the body has arrived, and the old 200
OK for an empty body is the bug this fixes. Bodies announced at or above
the buffer size answer 400 before anything is buffered.
The wait state has a deadline. uIP is built with a single connection,
and an ESTABLISHED connection with nothing in flight never times out on
its own, so headers followed by silence (a script interrupted, a link
dropped mid-request, or someone holding the socket on purpose) would
otherwise keep the slot until reboot; POST /login reaches the wait
before authentication. The poll handler aborts the connection when the
body has made no progress for five seconds, measured on the 200 Hz
system tick rather than on poll count, which runs faster under interrupt
load.
Record the announced body length alongside Content-Type and the session
cookie. The value goes through parse_short(), so an announcement that does
not fit sixteen bits saturates at 0xffff rather than wrapping to something
the size checks would accept, and a missing or unparseable header reads as 0.
Nothing consumes it yet; the plain POST endpoints take it up next.
The scan stepped over the NUL that ends the received data before breaking,
so on a request whose headers were cut short it returned a pointer one past
the data. handle_post() then tested that byte for the end of the header,
reading whatever an earlier packet had left there instead of the NUL the
appcall wrote, and could go on to run an endpoint against the stale bytes.
Break before advancing so the returned pointer sits on the NUL and the
caller's check sees it.
The digit loop accumulated into a uint16_t without a bound, so a query
such as /vlan.json?vid=65540 read as VLAN 4 and every consumer saw a small,
valid-looking number for an out-of-range one. Clamp the result at 0xffff
once another digit would overflow (6552 * 10 + 9 is the last value that
fits). The consumers already reject or mask 0xffff: vlan_get() refuses
anything from 4095 up, send_l2() masks the index to the table size, and
l2_delete() masks the high byte.
scan_header() found Content-Type and Cookie with is_word(), which compares
bytes exactly and requires a separator after the pattern. Field names are
case-insensitive (RFC 7230 section 3.2), and the whitespace after the colon
is optional, so "content-type: multipart/..." and "Content-Type:multipart/..."
were both treated as absent. The value pointers were then fixed offsets that
assumed exactly one space.
Add header_value(), which matches a lower-case name anchored at the line
start, folds the request bytes to lower case as it compares, and returns
the start of the value past any blanks, so a call site no longer adds the
name length by hand. Cookie scanning reuses the returned pointer, and the
end-of-header test becomes the strstart() the file already has.
The tail of handle_post() interleaved the config and firmware upload
paths behind one config_upload conditional. Give each path its own
function, handle_config_fragment() and handle_firmware_fragment(), and
reduce handle_post() to routing.
Both handlers keep their own copy of the buffer-and-bounds-check
prologue: with SDCC a shared helper costs 2 bytes of direct RAM for
the fragment pointer (a spill slot when the parameter lives in xdata,
a DSEG home when it does not), and direct RAM is fully allocated. The
memory layout is unchanged from the pre-split code.
cfg_pos, cfg_hdr, cfg_body, cfg_end, cfg_last and cfg_bl are used only
by config_take(), so move them out of file scope and into the function.
The five cursors stay static: SDCC register-caches automatic xdata
locals and spills them through DSEG slots, which costs 6 bytes of direct
RAM this build has no room for; static keeps the access pattern of the
old globals and the memory layout is unchanged. cfg_bl produces no spill
slot at the current register pressure, so it is a plain local. The
mechanism is recorded in issue #386.
handle_post() reused cfg_pos and cfg_end as scratch for unrelated
values; those uses get their own named locals, frag_len and
payload_start.
An empty slot used to read back 0xa0 per byte and the filter dropped it,
so the field came out empty. Block reads report the failure instead and
leave the buffer alone, and these two callers ignored that and printed
what the last successful read had left there.
Say nothing when there is nothing to read, which is what the other eight
callers of sfp_read_block() already do.
Both conflicts are the register keyword removal meeting a change of ours,
so each takes main's signature and keeps what the branch was saying:
nic_rx_packet() still returns a bool, and port_ingress_filter_get() stays
declared.
main has since put its own copy of the STP module in BANK2, so the pragma
this branch carried is now duplicated. The one with main's comment stays.
The preamble scan cursor and the buffered-length parameter carry no
state between calls, so they do not need static xdata slots. As plain
locals the compiler places both in registers, trimming 64 bytes of
BANK1 code and two bytes of xdata.
The offsets shared by config_take() stay static: direct data space is
fully allocated on machines like the SWTGW218AS, so plain locals there
add overlay bytes that no longer link, and xdata-class locals spill
three temporaries into direct space while growing the code by roughly
120 bytes. Document pre_acc, whose accumulation across TCP segments is
why it must remain global.
A firmware upload previously ended in a silent connection close, leaving
the client unable to distinguish a verified upload from a failed one.
Send an explicit 200/400 verdict with the CRC result, with
Content-Length so the browser completes the response before the reset,
and only reset the chip once the verdict has been fully ACKed.
The unconditional close after a config upload is gone since the
buffered config path answers with its own response, so drop the
now-unreachable close hack from the streaming path.
A firmware image cannot be buffered whole, so the upload is streamed to
flash, and stream_upload() already resumes across TCP segments. The
multipart preamble did not: handle_post() walked the part headers from the
start of whichever segment it held, so a client that split inside the
octet-stream part header lost its place, never started streaming, and the
request hung. Firefox splits exactly there, right after filename=".
Buffer the multipart body only until the octet-stream part header is
complete, locate the payload, then stream from that point; later segments
stream as before. The header reuses the configuration buffer, which is idle
during a firmware upload, so no extra memory is needed.
cmd_parser.c conflicted twice: main rewrote the pvid command around the
new port-separator and atoi helpers, next to the line where this branch
delegates "stp" to stp_parse(). Both belong, so the STP delegation keeps
main's pvid body.
The linker caught what the merge could not see: main changed atoi_byte()
to return the digit count and leave the value in atoi_results_u8, where
it used to return non-zero on failure and write through a pointer. Note
the sense is inverted, so the three calls in rtl837x_stp.c are adjusted
rather than just re-arranged.
Only httpd.c conflicted: main added the buffered configuration upload
next to the pointers this branch had moved into xdata to free internal
RAM. Both belong, so the new globals sit above declarations that keep
their storage class.
The I2C controller transfers up to sixteen bytes per transaction and
page_impl.c already used that for sfp_send_data(), while sfp_read_reg()
asked for one byte and every caller looped. Reading a module therefore
cost one address phase per byte: 87 transactions when a module is
inserted, 52 for the sfp command, 36 for the vendor block in status.json.
sfp_read_block() replaces sfp_read_reg() and the callers that already
wanted a run of registers ask for it once: the vendor fields as three
16 byte pages, the diagnostics as one transfer, rate and encoding
together. That drops the three paths above to 8, 6 and 3 transactions,
and sfp_send_data() loses its copy of the transfer.
The vendor loops now run over 16..63 rather than 20..59 so the page base
is a multiple of sixteen and the index into the buffer is a single AND.
The four extra bytes at each end are read and discarded. The diagnostics
read asks for 16 bytes rather than the 15 it uses, because 16 is a width
the shipped firmware already exercises and 15 is not.
The device address, the bus selection and the start bit go into the
control register in one write now that the memory address is written
first, so a transfer touches that register once instead of three times.
The register reads take their result from the SFRs directly rather than
through the sfr_data mirror. The result is a bool and the destination is
sfp_buf, so a caller that cares about a failed transfer looks at the
return value instead of a flag.
Every caller gives up on the first failed read rather than carrying a
flag to the end, which is why the module read moved out of handle_sfp
into a function of its own. A module whose read fails is left marked as
absent, so the next poll retries it instead of configuring the SerDes
from bytes that never arrived.
BANK1 -194 bytes, BANK2 +382, common segment +44, xdata +15 for the
buffer, and one byte more of internal RAM free than before the series.
Built for all 25 machine definitions on sdcc 4.5.0; the tightest common
segment is 98 bytes free on SWTG024AS_V2_0, against 54 before this
series.
CONFIG_UPLOAD_BUF at 2560 capped a configuration upload at about 2.2K
while the config sector holds 4K. Size the buffer as CONFIG_LEN plus
room for the multipart framing so the whole sector is usable.
config_take() wrote the payload without checking it against the sector:
safe before only because the buffer could not hold an oversized one.
Reject a payload that does not fit CONFIG_LEN, terminator included,
instead of writing past the erased sector.
