Random crashes, infinite loops, and other lockups were happening to the PicoW
while under high load from multiple clients.
This seems to have been due to two issues:
* The periodic sys_check_timeouts() call from an alarm/IRQ was happening while
the core was in LWIP code. LWIP is not re-entrant or multi-core/thread safe
so this is a bad thing. Some calls may not have been locked with a manual
addition of the LWIPMutex object to hit this.
* The WiFi driver supplies packet data during an interrupt. PBUF work is
legal in an interrupt, but actually calling netif->input() from an IRQ to
queue up the Ethernet packet for processing is illegal if LWIP is already
in progress.
Rearchitect the LWIP interface to fix these problems:
* Disable interrupts during malloc/etc. to avoid the possibility of the
periodic LWIP timeout check interrupting and potentially calling user
code which did a memory operation
* Wrap all used LWIP calls to note LWIP code will be executing, instead of
manually eyeballing and adding in protection in user code.
* Remove all user code LWIPMutex blocking, the wrapping takes care of it.
* When an Ethernet packet is received by interrupt and we're in LWIP code,
just throw the packet away for now. The upper layers can handle retransmit.
(A possible optimization would be to set the packet aside and add a
housekeeping portion to the LWIP wrappers to netif->input() them when safe).
* Ignore callbacks during TCP connection teardown when the ClientContext
passed from LWIP == nullptr
When moving between different modes or even WiFi.begin/ends, any setting
of the IPs will fail because the internal flag _started was not cleared.
Clear _started on a ::end call.
Fixes#884
Adds a 12K OTA stub 3rd stage bootloader, which reads new firmware
from the LittleFS filesystem and flashes on reboot.
By storing the OTA commands in a file in flash, it is possible to
recover from a power failure during OTA programming. On power
resume, the OTA block will simply re-program from the beginning.
Support cryptographic signed OTA updates, if desired. Includes
host-side signing logic via openssl.
Add PicoOTA library which encapsulates the file format for
the updater, including CRC32 checking.
Add LEAmDNS support to allow Arduino IDE discovery
Add ArduinoOTA class for IDE uploads
Add MD5Builder class
Add Updater class which supports writing and validating
cryptographically signed binaries from any source (http,
Ethernet, WiFi, Serial, etc.)
Add documentation and readmes.
* Apply @oddstr13 multicast patch to cyw43 driver
* Initial work for enabling IPv6
* Allow accessing CYW43 stats when LWIP_SYS_CHECK_MS is not set
* Use cyw43_set_allmulti to allow receiving multicast
* Add tools/libpico/build to gitignore

* Fix spurious TCP retransmission
* Protect LWIP from reentrancy
The Pico SDK calls "sys_check_timeouts() from inside a periodic interrupt.
This appears unsafe, as the interrupt could happen while already in the
(non-reentrant) LWIP code.
Block the interrupt from calling sys_check_timeouts by using a global flag
manually set via an RAII recursive lock.
Add interrupt protection macros around critical sections inside LWIP via
the standard defines.
These two changes should make LWIP significantly more stable and long
running.
