pppos_input() is safe to call from outside tcpip_thread when
PPP_INPROC_IRQ_SAFE == 1, so only check if PPP_INPROC_IRQ_SAFE == 0

This partly reverts 31bc2f9b which broke pppos tx as 'pppos_output_append'
implements a custom scheme of checking available pbuf size.
Added a comment why PBUF_POOL is ok for tx in this special case.

Current code does not correctly update ifoutoctets counter because nb->tot_len
is always 0. Fix it by setting nb->tot_len to actual payload length so we can
update ifoutoctets correctly.

User should not use ppp_connect or ppp_listen return value to retry
later, it must wait for the callback to be called. This is primarily
done this way to have a consistent behavior with and without the
holdoff feature.
Remove returned error value from PPP link level API connect and listen
callbacks because we are not using them anymore, then make ppp_connect
or ppp_listen to always return ERR_OK, thus we are not breaking the PPP
user API.
We don't need the return code here, all PPP link level drivers can't
fail at all (e.g. PPPoS) or retry if necessary (PPPoE and PPPoL2TP).
Art says:
pppos_input() can call ppp_input() which can call pppos_disconnect() to
disconnect the interface. However, it will continue to read in
characters and allocate a pbuf from the PBUF_POOL and keep it in
pppos->in_head and in_tail. When a re-connect happens and pppos_connect()
is called, this pppos->in_head and in_tail are zeroed, hence a memory
leak. (This happens with PPP_INPROC_IRQ_SAFE not defined.)
A fix would be inside pppos_input() to break out of the loop inputting
characters after calling ppp_input() if pppos->open == 0. Note that
the loop is not even entered if pppos->open == 0.
ppp_input(ppp, inp);
if(pppos->open == 0) //get out if they disconnected
break;
Fix it in a similar way which doesn't add new code by moving the
existing pppos->open check inside the byte loop.
Van Jacobson TCP header compression only apply if TCP is enabled,
therefore we need to disable VJ compression if TCP is disabled.
We already have conditions to enforce VJ disabling if IPv4 is disabled
or if PPPoS is disabled, add TCP to those conditions and remove
unecessary VJ_SUPPORT && LWIP_TCP conditions.
This function only set PPP to initialize phase, and it is only called at
the very beginning of functions where it is called. It means we could
as well set the initialize phase before calling those functions in the
PPP core.
There is absolutely no reason I did it this way in the first
place, maybe I feared that not all compilers have a proper
implementation of offsetof() ? It sounds stupid.
PPP auth required flag is currently hardcoded to true if PPP is
acting as a server and set to false if PPP is acting as a client.
This is probably the most wanted behavior, but since we now have the
ability to change that at runtime, allow users to do it.
It means we can now have a server which asks the client to authenticate
or vice versa. This is pretty unusual thought. What we don't support
yet is mutual authentication with a different set of user and password
per direction which is even less usual.
PPP use peer DNS setting is currently hardcoded to true if PPP is
acting as a client and set to false if PPP is actinf as a server.
This is probably the most wanted behavior, but since we now have the
ability to change that at runtime, allow users to do it.
We don't have a way to have a different default configuration if the
PPP PCB is going to be used as a client or as a server, therefore the
default configuration should be fine for both of them. Since enabling
peer DNS by default is dangerous for server mode, the default is now
not to ask for DNS servers and it should now be explicitely enabled
if needed, update the documentation accordingly.
Now that we have helpers to set those members externaly, pppos_listen
struct ppp_addrs* argument does not add any value. In addition it
was not a well chosen design choice because the user needed to keep a
copy of struct ppp_addrs when listening again for a new connection.
DNS servers should be set in IPCP allowoptions instead of wantoptions.
In addition if server mode is enabled we need to disable usepeerdns
config flag so we are not asking DNS servers to our client.
This function does not clear anything anymore. What it is now is an
optional way to notify PPP that link layer is started, changing the
PPP state from "dead" to "initialize". Rename it accordingly to what
the function really is.
When I create a new PPP connection, I am seeing a hardfault (segfault)
coming from pbuf_free.
I traced the problem to an invalid in_head field of the pppos_pcb structure.
The field is invalid because the memory is never cleared to zero after the
pppos_pcb structure is created in pppos_create().
I was able to fix the issue by adding a memset after the memp_malloc call.

Jiffies isn't really a humanly readable value and it means the default
PPP_MAXIDLEFLAG period depends on the platform "jiffies" frequency,
which isn't nice.
Change PPP_MAXIDLEFLAG to use ms instead of jiffies, the current
PPP_MAXIDLEFLAG default (100 ms), looks like a sane value and is
left unchanged.
The overall lwIP design on data flows (netif,udp,tcp) is to use a user
defined callback to get data from stack and a static function to send
data to stack, which makes perfect sense. The SIO port was an exception,
the PPP stack never really used the SIO port by only using the
sio_send() function (and the ignominious sio_read_abort() function a
while back).
The way the SIO port is currently designed adds a tight coupling between
the lwIP port and the user code if the user need to do specific user
code if the current uart used is the PPPoS uart, which is not nice,
especially because all the lwIP stack is quite clean at this subject.
While we are at stabilizing the PPP API, change this behavior before
it's too late by replacing the static sio_write() calls to a user
defined callback.
There is no point of calling magic_randomize() for each pppos_input()
call, making magic_randomize() potentially called for each serial input
byte which is quite a bad idea since magic_randomize() is quite
intensive in processing time (MD5 computation) compared to HDLC frame
parsing. There is no entropy added when being called for each input byte
rather than for each valid input packet because byte input is a
monotonic event at the packet level. Well, if packet arrival time is a
valid entropy source even so, which I doubt a lot, but we don't really
have anything else and we really need random for PPP authentication
layers.
PBUF_LINK_ENCAPSULATION_HLEN support was introduced by 6ef7563f and
missed the fact that header size calculation/reservation using
computation like PBUF_LINK_HLEN + PBUF_IP_HLEN + ... are used all over
the source code. Hopefully fixed all of them.
We need to do VJ compression before CCP/MPPE compression and VJ
decompression after CCP/MPPE decompression. This leads to a massive
rewrite of how we currently handled VJ only in the PPPoS lower protocol
handler.
Moved VJ structures from pppos to ppp_pcb because we need them back in
PPP core. This is a bit unfortunate because that's not necessary for
PPPoE or PPPoL2TP, but, hey!. Fixed CCP+MPPE+VJ order.
In PPP, we previously know if we are dealing with a IPv4 or a IPv6 packet,
we don't need to use the ip_input() dispatch function, removing a useless
if and reducing call stack by one.
ip_addr_t is used for all generic IP addresses for the API, ip(4/6)_addr_t are only used internally or when initializing netifs or when calling version-related functions
Follow-up of the #44565 bug fix, renamed the misnamed
PPP_INPROC_MULTITHREADED to PPP_INPROC_IRQ_SAFE because it is
IRQ safe but not thread safe.
Updated PPP documentation which now clearly state when and how
this feature can be used.
