[lwip-devel] [task #6861] Pimp ip_frag.c

[Simon Goldschmidt]

Follow-up Comment #4, task #6861 (project lwip):

My suggestion would be to hold PBUF_POOLs temporarily to reassemble them
later. Let's say I'd allow a maximum of 10 packets consisting of PBUF_POOLs
(of tot_len = maximum MTU). I would then allocate those pbuf chains in
ip_frag_init() and free one each time I put a new packet in the
reassembly-list. That way I guarantee the amount of pbufs in the pool stays
the same while still avoiding 2*memcpy() for each reassembled packet (which,
in my opinion, fits even better to the name "lwIP" :)
