The network offloading API provides hooks that a device vendor can use
|
|
|
|
|
to provide an alternate implementation for an IP stack. This means that the
|
|
|
|
|
actual network connection creation, data transfer, etc., is done in the vendor
|
|
|
|
|
HAL instead of the Zephyr network stack.

Overview

|
In addition to the network offloading API, Zephyr allows offloading of networking
|
|
|
|
|
functionality at the socket API level. With this approach, vendors who provide an
|
|
|
|
|
alternate implementation of the networking stack, exposing socket API for their
|
|
|
|
|
networking devices, can easily integrate it with Zephyr.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See :zephyr_file:`drivers/wifi/simplelink/simplelink_sockets.c` for a sample
|
|
|
|
|
implementation on how to integrate network offloading at socket level.
