6lowpan: introduce new net/6lowpan directory This patch moves generic code which is used by bluetooth and ieee802154 6lowpan to a new net/6lowpan directory. This directory contains generic 6LoWPAN code which is shared between bluetooth and ieee802154 MAC-Layer. This is the IPHC - "IPv6 Header Compression" format at the moment. Which is described by RFC 6282 [0]. The BLTE 6LoWPAN draft describes that the IPHC is the same format like IEEE 802.15.4, see [1]. Futuremore we can put more code into this directory which is shared between BLTE and IEEE 802.15.4 6LoWPAN like RFC 6775 or the routing protocol RPL RFC 6550. To avoid naming conflicts I renamed 6lowpan-y to ieee802154_6lowpan-y in net/ieee802154/Makefile.

config 6LOWPAN
6lowpan: Allow 6LoWPAN to be modular Change config symbol 6LOWPAN from type bool to type tristate, so 6LoWPAN can be built modular, just like IPV6 Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Acked-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

depends on IPV6
---help---
This enables IPv6 over Low power Wireless Personal Area Network -
"6LoWPAN" which is supported by IEEE 802.15.4 or Bluetooth stacks.
