RE: [lwip-users] PPPoS and ordinary Ethernet (not PPPoE) underFreeRTOS

Thanks for that.

This looks like something I will have to raise within the FreeRTOS
system support, as none of the examples seem to use this wrapper
function.

While I can't help you with the PPPoS (or ppp at all), I can tell you
that you have to take care of destroying tasks in the port: you have to
cope with thread functions returning, lwIP doesn't delete threads. If
threads have to be deleted before returning in your environment, you can
solve this using a wrapper function around the task functions being
called. In this wrapper function, when the task function returns, you
can delete the thread.
