This commit adds a new method in `AesCcm` to encrypt/decrypt the
payload content in place within a given `Message`. This is then used
in `Mle` for processing MLE messages. This commit also updates unit
test `test_aes.cpp` to validate the new method.
This commit updates `VerifyOrQuit()` and `SuccessOrQuit()` macros to
include the failed condition in the error message that is printed on
a failure (in addition to function name and line number where the
error happened). This commit also changes the second parameter
(`aMessage`) to in these macros to be optional.
This commit also updates unit tests to remove the second `aMessage`
string in cases where the failure can be inferred from the condition
itself.
- add a new enumeration type `Mode` to indicate the encryption vs.
decryption mode in `AesCcm::Payload()` method.
- add `GetTagLength()` method and simplify `Finalize()`.
- change `AesCcm::Init()` to assert on bad tag length input param
instead of returning `OT_ERROR_INVALID_ARGS`.
- reorder AesCcm member variable to help with alignments
- use CHAR_BIT
- remove check of tag length from Finalize
- use `memcpy`/`memset` to copy/clear buffers
This commit new configuration option `enable-multiple-instances` and
its corresponding option `OPENTHREAD_ENABLE_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES`. When
enabled OpenThread supports handling of multiple instances. By default
this is disabled.
This commit also adds two optimizations for single instance case to
simplify the code and also help reduce memory/RAM usage:
(1) OpenThread objects/classes typically keep a reference to a higher
level object (e.g., many classes keep track of owning `ThreadNetif`)
to be able to access other objects/methods within OpenThread class
hierarchy. In single instance mode, the reference member variables are
removed and instead global functions are used to access the singleton
objects from one class to the other. To implement this, a group of
`<Object>Locator` classes are defined (e.g., `ThreadNetifLocator`,
etc.) which are then used as base class of other OpenThread classes.
(2) OpenThread objects which provide a callback/handler (e.g.,
`Timer`, `Tasklet`, etc.) have `void *mContext` member variable which
is used to keep track of the owner of the object. In single instance
mode the `mConext` member variables are removed since the owner is
expected to be a singleton and can be uniquely determined from the
callback function.
To implement this, two changes are made: First the handler methods are
modified to provide a reference to the object (e.g., `Timer` handler
will provide a `Timer &aTimer` as a parameter of its handler
callback). Second, a new base class `Context` is introduced which
hides the implementation providing an arbitrary context information. A
new static method `GetOwner(aContext)` is added to classes which own a
callback providing objects. This method help convert a `Context` to
the reference of the owner class object.
* change user mode openthread to enable dynamic memory allocation in mbedtls
* complete merge by adding OPENTHREAD_MULTIPLE_INSTANCE to last file
* remove some extraneous changes that got pulled in accidentally
* fix spacing
* fix crash in existing tests due to this change
* fix x86 build
