[ECOS] Trying to figure out redboot TCP/IP stack

[Bob Koninckx]

Hi folks,

Just trying to understand, what's the reason for the call to
MS_TICKS_DELAY in function __tcp_poll, since function __timer_poll
already calls MS_TICKS_DELAY in a loop ?

void
__tcp_poll(void) {
  __enet_poll();
  MS_TICKS_DELAY();
  __timer_poll();
}

Rewriting it as

void
__tcp_poll(void) {
  __enet_poll();
  __timer_poll();
}

apparently doesn't break anything and removes an unnecessary delay (and
hence the risk for hardware overrun) from the code.

Bob
