This commit adds a new class `OwnerLocator` which is used by the
callback providing types (like `Timer` or `Tasklet`) to remember the
owner of the object. This change help simplify the handling of
callbacks from such objects. The object itself can be used to get
to its owner using `GetOwner<Type>()` method. If support for multiple
OpenThread instances is enabled, an `OwnerLocator` object maintains a
pointer to the owner. But for the single OpenThread instance scenario,
the owner is derived from the single `ot::Instance` object.
Thread (and OpenThread) does not employ any form of transmit power control.
As a result, while OpenThread provides APIs to control transmit power, it
simply buffers and passes the transmit power value straight through to the
radio.
Currently, the transmit power APIs allow specifying an int8_t in units of
dBm. This is overly constraining for platforms that have more advanced ways
of configuring the transmit power.
This commit removes the transmit power configuration from the core. This
provides better flexibility in platform-specific ways to configure transmit
power.
This commit makes the following changes: It defines the public
`otInstance` as an empty opaque structure which is used by all public
C OpenThread APIs. It defines a new class `ot::Instance` (inheriting
from `otInstance) which is then used in core source files. The
functionality related to the instance is also moved/added into the
newly added `Instance` class (as class/static or member methods).
This commit simplifies the config header files includes in
OpenThread core and non-public source files. With this change the
"openthread-core-config.h" becomes the main config header file. This
header file includes all other config ones:
1) The `configure` generated `<openthread/config.h>;
2) The project specific one by `OPENTHREAD_PROJECT_CORE_CONFIG_FILE`;
3) The "openthread-core-default-config.h" defining default settings.
With the change in this commit, all header files include "openthread-
core-config.h" as the first `#include`, and in `.cpp` files, the first
`#include` continues to be the unit's corresponding header file. The
new model ensures that the configuration settings are visible and
consistent in all the source files. This commit also updates the
style guide document accordingly.
This commit changes the `InstanceLocator` class to keep track of a
reference to `otInstance` (instead of a pointer) to make it behave
similar to other `ObjectLocator` classes. The method `GetInstance()`
in all locator objects is updated to provide a reference (instead
of a pointer) to `otInstance`.
The logging macros are updated such that a reference to `otInstance`
is passed as the first argument (with the exception of
`otLog<Level>Plat()` macros which are used by platform code in C
domain). The documentation for log macros are also updated.
* [mac filter] add rssfilter support and integrate whitelist/blacklist

- provide Address filter function which integrates whitelist and blacklist, save (~300B) RAM.
- update cli and spinel-cli to reflect new otLinkFilterX() APIs.
- keep whitelist/blacklist spinel properties the same as before while implemented with new otLinkFilterX() APIs.
- THCI: add setOutBoundLinkQuality() API for DEV-1530
- THCI: update Allow/Block relative APIs
- update some test scripts due to new OT_ERROR_ALEADY when adding duplicate address to whitelist

* Add separate UsecTimer and UsecTimerScheduler for multiple microseconds timer support.
* [timer] refine Timer names
* Rename alarm header files to alarm-milli.h and alarm-micro.h
* Rename alarm APIs to start with otPlatAlarmMilli and otPlatAlarmMicro

* Define AlarmApi, so then TimerMilliScheduler/TimerMicroScheduler could use different AlarmApi.
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.
