m2m_wifi_send_ethernet_pkt

Synchronous function to transmit an Ethernet packet.

The implementation of this packet is left to the application developer. The Ethernet packet composition is left to the application developer.

Functions
NMI_API sint8	m2m_wifi_send_ethernet_pkt (uint8 *pu8Packet, uint16 u16PacketSize, uint8 u8IfcId)

NMI_API sint8 m2m_wifi_send_ethernet_pkt	(	uint8 *	pu8Packet,
		uint16	u16PacketSize,
		uint8	u8IfcId
	)

Parameters

[in]	pu8Packet	Pointer to a buffer holding the whole Ethernet frame at an offset of M2M_ETHERNET_HDR_OFFSET + M2M_ETH_PAD_SIZE bytes. This buffer has to be aligned appropriately for DMA operations according to the host's constraints (Word Aligned, cache line aligned… etc)
[in]	u16PacketSize	The size of the whole bytes in packet.
[in]	u8IfcId	The interface selected to send Ethernet packet (AP_INTERFACE, STATION_INTERFACE OR P2P_INTERFACE)

Note

Packets are the user's responsibility.

Returns

The function returns M2M_SUCCESS for successful operations and a negative value otherwise.
