[lwip-devel] [bug #19573] netconn_delete treats 1ms wait as poll

[Jonathan Larmour]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #19573 (project lwip):

I'm okay with breaking the ports - if we're going to break them anyway, let's
break them all at once :-). But I'll wait for Kieran to say if that's ok in
that case, since that sort of thing should not be done lightly.

I guess one alternative choice would not be to have a different function, but
to pass a "magic" timeout argument to the current one.

e.g.
#define SYS_MBOX_NOWAIT 0xfffffffe
used as:
sys_arch_mbox_fetch( mbox, msg, SYS_MBOX_NOWAIT );

I don't know if this would really save code in practice, since it still needs
to be handled specially anyway. It hides the API change, which is probably a
bad thing.
