Switching to lwip



Hi,

This comes from the "Please test and contribute" thread. I'm just opening a new thread to not hijack that one.

been waiting for years for people to contribute tested patches to do
this.

What patches do we need for this? I'm currently working on trying to make dhclient work. It doesn't work because of the problems I mentioned in this post: https://darnassus.sceen.net/~jlledom/en/07-ifupdown.html. Maybe with some tweaks in the translator we can make the DHCPDISCOVER reach the wire without the need to patch the stack.

I know I should be working on support dhcpcd, but that one doesn't even compile at this moment and will never work anyway if we don't fix the DHCPDISCOVER problem first.

Apart from that, which other patches would we need?
