The * function checks the destination IPv6 address of the IPv6 packet to see * what L2 address that should be used as a destination L2 address. * * If the destination IPv6 address is in the local network (determined * by logical ANDing of netmask and our IPv6 address), the function * checks the Neighbor Table to see if an entry for the destination IPv6 * address is found. If so, an L2 header is pre-pended at the beginning * of the packet and the function returns. * * If no Neighbor Table entry is found for the destination IPv6 address, * the packet in the d_buf is replaced by an ICMPv6 Neighbor Solicit * request packet for the IPv6 address. The IPv6 packet is dropped and * it is assumed that the higher level protocols (e.g., TCP) eventually * will retransmit the dropped packet. * * Upon return in either the case, a packet to be sent is present in the * d_buf buffer and the d_len field holds the length of the L2 frame that * should be transmitted. * ****************************************************************************/ void neighbor_out(FAR struct net_driver_s *dev) { switch (dev->d_lltype) { #ifdef CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET case NET_LL_ETHERNET: case NET_LL_IEEE80211: neighbor_ethernet_out(dev); break; #endif default: break; } }
