Detailed Description

The linkaddr module is an abstract representation of addresses in Rime.

Function Documentation

int linkaddr_cmp	(	const linkaddr_t *	addr1,
		const linkaddr_t *	addr2
	)

Compare two Rime addresses.

Parameters

addr1	The first address
addr2	The second address

Returns

Non-zero if the addresses are the same, zero if they are different

        This function compares two Rime addresses and returns
        the result of the comparison. The function acts like
        the '==' operator and returns non-zero if the addresses
        are the same, and zero if the addresses are different.

Examples:

example-collect.c, example-multihop.c, example-runicast.c, and example-unicast.c.

void linkaddr_copy	(	linkaddr_t *	dest,
		const linkaddr_t *	from
	)

Copy a Rime address.

Parameters

dest	The destination
from	The source This function copies a Rime address from one location to another.

(

linkaddr_t *

addr

Variable Documentation

linkaddr_t linkaddr_node_addr

The Rime address of the node.

This variable contains the Rime address of the node. This variable should not be changed directly; rather, the linkaddr_set_node_addr() function should be used.

Examples:

example-announcement.c, example-collect.c, example-multihop.c, example-rucb.c, example-rudolph1.c, example-rudolph2.c, example-runicast.c, example-trickle.c, and example-unicast.c.

linkaddr_t linkaddr_node_addr

The Rime address of the node.

This variable contains the Rime address of the node. This variable should not be changed directly; rather, the linkaddr_set_node_addr() function should be used.

Definition at line 48 of file linkaddr.c.

const linkaddr_t linkaddr_null

The null Rime address.

This variable contains the null Rime address. The null address is used in route tables to indicate that the table entry is unused. Nodes with no configured address has the null address. Nodes with their node address set to the null address will have problems communicating with other nodes.

Examples:

example-collect.c, and example-unicast.c.
