Hello all,
I have changed the Ethernet ARP implementation with 3 improvements:
- update (i.e. time-stamp) existing entries on foreign ARP traffic.
- ARP now uses link level output function, so both an ARP reply and a
queued IP packet can be sent at the same time.
- ARP is now more persistent on queries (and can do requests more often).
This paves the way to further ARP enhancements, such as multi-packet
queueing, mobile IP support and non-Ethernet
ARP.
Everyone interested please test this implementation. It should be a drop-in
replacement for the current "etharp.c".
Make sure your link driver fills the netif->linkoutput field correctly.
(This field is not new, but was seldomly used.)
Please download here: (THIS CODE IS NOT IN THE CVS YET.)

Also, I have fixed the cs8900a driver with regards to bug #1686.
Regards,
Leon Woestenberg.
