2011-08-24	IEEE802.15.4: 6LoWPAN basic support	Alexander Smirnov	1	-0/+6
	This patch provides base support for transmission of IPv6 packets as well as the formation of IPv6 link-local addresses and statelessly autoconfigured addresses on top of IEEE 802.15.4 networks. For more information please look at the RFC4944 "Compression Format for IPv6 Datagrams in Low Power and Losst Networks (6LoWPAN).

2009-06-09	net: add IEEE 802.15.4 socket family implementation	Sergey Lapin	1	-0/+12
	Add support for communication over IEEE 802.15.4 networks. This implementation is neither certified nor complete, but aims to that goal. This commit contains only the socket interface for communication over IEEE 802.15.4 networks. One can either send RAW datagrams or use SOCK_DGRAM to encapsulate data inside normal IEEE 802.15.4 packets. Configuration interface, drivers and software MAC 802.15.4 implementation will follow. Initial implementation was done by Maxim Gorbachyov, Maxim Osipov and Pavel Smolensky as a research project at Siemens AG. Later the stack was heavily reworked to better suit the linux networking model, and is now maitained as an open project partially sponsored by Siemens.
