Gregory Nutt 22cd0d47fa This commit attempts remove some long standard confusion in naming and some actual problems that result from the naming confusion. The basic problem is the standard MTU does not include the size of the Ethernet header. For clarity, I changed the naming of most things called MTU to PKTSIZE. For example, CONFIG_NET_ETH_MTU is now CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE. 
This makes the user interface a little hostile.  People thing of an MTU of 1500 bytes, but the corresponding packet is really 1514 bytes (including the 14 byte Ethernet header).  A more friendly solution would configure the MTU (as before), but then derive the packet buffer size by adding the MAC header length.  Instead, we define the packet buffer size then derive the MTU.

The MTU is not common currency in networking.  On the wire, the only real issue is the MSS which is derived from MTU by subtracting the IP header and TCP header sizes (for the case of TCP).  Now it is derived for the PKTSIZE by subtracting the IP header, the TCP header, and the MAC header sizes.  So we should be all good and without the recurring 14 byte error in MTU's and MSS's.

Squashed commit of the following:

    Trivial update to fix some spacing issues.
    net/: Rename several macros containing _MTU to _PKTSIZE.
    net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_SLIP_MTU to CONFIG_NET_SLIP_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU.  These are not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header.  These are the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
    net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_6LOWPAN_MTU to CONFIG_NET_6LOWPAN_PKTSIZE and similarly for CONFIG_NET_TUN_MTU.  These are not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header.  These are the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
    net/: Rename CONFIG_NET_ETH_MTU to CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE.  This is not the MTU which does not include the size of the link layer header.  This is the full size of the packet buffer memory (minus any GUARD bytes).
    net/: Rename the file d_mtu in the network driver structure to d_pktsize.  That value saved there is not the MTU.  The packetsize is the memory large enough to hold the maximum packet PLUS the size of the link layer header.  The MTU does not include the link layer header.

Architecture-Specific Code
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The NuttX configuration consists of:

o Processor architecture specific files.  These are the files contained
  in the arch/<arch-name>/ directory discussed in this README.

o Chip/SoC specific files.  Each processor processor architecture
  is embedded in chip or System-on-a-Chip (SoC) architecture.  The
  full chip architecture includes the processor architecture plus
  chip-specific interrupt logic, general purpose I/O (GIO) logic, and
  specialized, internal peripherals (such as UARTs, USB, etc.).

  These chip-specific files are contained within chip-specific
  sub-directories in the arch/<arch-name>/ directory and are selected
  via the CONFIG_ARCH_name selection

o Board specific files.  In order to be usable, the chip must be
  contained in a board environment.  The board configuration defines
  additional properties of the board including such things as
  peripheral LEDs, external peripherals (such as network, USB, etc.).

  These board-specific configuration files can be found in the
  configs/<board-name>/ sub-directories.

This README will address the processor architecture specific files
that are contained in the arch/<arch-name>/ directory. The file
include/nuttx/arch.h identifies all of the APIs that must
be provided by this architecture specific logic.  (It also includes
arch/<arch-name>/arch.h as described below).

Directory Structure
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The arch directory contains architecture specific logic.  The complete
board port in is defined by the architecture-specific code in this
directory (plus the board-specific configurations in the config/
subdirectory).  Each architecture must provide a subdirectory <arch-name>
under arch/ with the following characteristics:


        <arch-name>/
        |-- include/
        |   |--<chip-name>/
        |   |  `-- (chip-specific header files)
        |   |--<other-chips>/
        |   |-- arch.h
        |   |-- irq.h
        |   `-- types.h
        `-- src/
            |--<chip-name>/
            |  `-- (chip-specific source files)
            |--<other-chips>/
            |-- Makefile
            `-- (architecture-specific source files)

Summary of Files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

include/<chip-name>/
  This sub-directory contains chip-specific header files.

include/arch.h
  This is a hook for any architecture specific definitions that may
  be needed by the system.  It is included by include/nuttx/arch.h

include/types.h
  This provides architecture/toolchain-specific definitions for
  standard types.  This file should typedef:

    _int8_t, _uint8_t, _int16_t, _uint16_t, _int32_t, _uint32_t

  and if the architecture supports 64-bit integers.

    _int24_t, _uint24_t, int64_t, uint64_t

  NOTE that these type names have a leading underscore character.  This
  file will be included(indirectly) by include/stdint.h and typedef'ed to
  the final name without the underscore character.  This roundabout way of
  doings things allows the stdint.h to be removed from the include/
  directory in the event that the user prefers to use the definitions
  provided by their toolchain header files

    irqstate_t

  Must be defined to the be the size required to hold the interrupt
  enable/disable state.

  This file will be included by include/sys/types.h and be made
  available to all files.

include/irq.h
  This file needs to define some architecture specific functions (usually
  inline if the compiler supports inlining) and structure.  These include:

  - struct xcptcontext.  This structures represents the saved context
    of a thread.

  - irqstate_t up_irq_save(void) -- Used to disable all interrupts.

  - void upirq_restore(irqstate_t flags) -- Used to restore interrupt
    enables to the same state as before up_irq_save was called.

  NOTE: These interfaces are not available to application code but can
  only be used withint the operating system code.  And, in general,
  these functions should *never* be called directly, not unless you
  know absolutely well what you are doing.  Rather you shoudl typically
  use the wrapper functions enter_critical_section() and leave_critical_section()
  as prototyped in include/nuttx/irq.h.

  This file must also define NR_IRQS, the total number of IRQs supported
  by the board.

src/<chip-name>/
  This sub-directory contains chip-specific source files.

src/Makefile
  This makefile will be executed to build the targets src/libup.a and
  src/up_head.o.  The up_head.o file holds the entry point into the system
  (power-on reset entry point, for example).  It will be used in
  the final link with libup.a and other system archives to generate the
  final executable.

Supported Architectures
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
NOTE: nuttx/Documentation/NuttX.html for current information about the
state of these MCU ports.

arch/sim - Linux/Cygwin simulation
    A user-mode port of NuttX to the x86 Linux platform is available.
    The purpose of this port is primarily to support OS feature development.
    This port does not support interrupts or a real timer (and hence no
    round robin scheduler)  Otherwise, it is complete.
