[lwip-devel] [bug #27352] Change ip_addr from struct to typedef (u32_t)

[Simon Goldschmidt]

Follow-up Comment #38, bug #27352 (project lwip):

I don't really understand actually where the difference is between *ip*-addr
and *in*-addr here. Did you mean you were confused by having both structs for
the stack? Well, if you are only programming sockets that you shouldn't have
used struct ip_addr at all... After all, in_addr is a socket-only define and
in my opinion, the code gets rather ugly when using it...

And I really don't understand what a typedef to u32_t has to do with byte
order?? Oh, and when the structs are packed, I don't think we can copy u16_t
because the port may be free to use unaligned pbuf payloads when setting
MEM_ALIGN to 1!
