- Packet buffers
The main idea is to be simple, CPU effective and eliminate data copy when possible (again, to decrease CPU load).
One of the main data structure of the ZBOSS stack is memory buffer, which is used for storing Zigbee packet. Zigbee packets has limited size (127 bytes). Zigbee packets are usually not fragmented, excluding fragmentation of big packets at APS layer. Extended buffers are used to store big packets.
To use extended buffers in application use zb_buf_get_out_delayed_ext() and zb_buf_get_in_delayed_ext() functions.
So, the same memory buffer can be used for a single packet going down-up or up-down between the user application and ZBOSS layers. Each layer or the application can modify the memory buffer: remove data partly or fully or add more data if there is free memory space in the buffer.
ZBOSS uses pre-defined pool of the fixed size memory buffers. The size of buffer pool can be changed, see more information about it in Memory configuration feature. A memory buffer consists of a header and a data buffer of 148 bytes. An application or the stack functions can get a single memory buffer from the pool (allocate the memory buffer) when it is necessary or put the buffer back when it is not needed anymore (release the memory buffer).
Every buffer has a header with these header fields:
- current layer data pointer
- current layer length
- 'status' for 'confirm' interface
- 'handle' for data and confirm interfaces
- flags
To avoid data copying, the following technique is used: when a Zigbee packet moves up between the Zigbee layers, the data related to the lower layers is removed by modifying the data pointer and data length in the buffer header. When a Zigbee packet is passing down between the Zigbee layers, the initial data is stored not from the beginning of the data buffer, but in the middle, so some space is reserved before and after the data. Therefore, if a lower Zigbee layer puts some data to a header or to a tail, data copying is generally not required. However, if there is not enough space for a header or a tail, the existing data may be moved to the right or to the left.
Logically, the memory buffers are divided into 2 types: for in and out packets. Thus, the buffer pool allocates both 'in' and 'out' types of buffers. This approach helps prevent allocating of all the memory buffers for incoming or outgoing packets, only those that may block ZBOSS from sending or receiving respectively any data. Obviously, such blocking may cause a scenario where it is impossible to send an acknowledgement for the received packet and the packet will be retransmitted by a remote due to the lack of the acknowledgement.
Memory buffers are commonly used for passing parameters to ZBOSS API functions. The following technique is used: data space needed for storing the parameters is allocated in the memory buffer at the end of its data buffer. The limitation is that both a caller and called functions must be aware of the parameter sizes, so it makes it impossible to pass parameters with a variable length. Special helpers are provided for storing and getting parameters form the memory buffer: ZB_BUF_GET_PARAM().
