Embedded TCP/IP stack: fnet_init_params::netheap_ptr

FNET

void* netheap_ptr

Pointer to the FNET heap buffer.

The FNET uses this heap buffer for the internal dynamic data allocation as:

  • Ethernet Tx/Rx frame buffers.
  • Sockets Input/Output buffers.
  • Protocol headers and service information.
  • Various control structures.
  • Temporary data.

    An application can allocate this buffer statically, dynamically, or use a special memory region (for example SRAM).
