Any opinions? |

#460 has been merged, care to update the description? |

Maybe you can also add a usage example to the description? |

Looks incredibly complicated. The |

We have errno? |
|
If the clib supplies it, yes. (And in my opinion we should use it more) |
|
Is it thread safe? |
|
Anyways - if not all stdlibs do support it we should not use it as part of an interface outside sys. |
|
Is there any strong opinion against closing (not merging) this PR? |
|
For which reason? |
|
I've got the feeling, that it is not really wished for :-) |

After some discussion with @haukepetersen a few weeks ago (and @thomaseichinger and @OlegHahm yesterday), I was thinking about a unified interface for radio chips, files, sockets, network stacks, serial interfaces, etc. a lot and now I finally got some time to formulate my idea (in the spirit of Hauke's #612, #613, #614, #615, and #616). It could completely replace the transceiver module, the (not merged from #460 yet) net_if module, and would greatly simplify POSIX wrappers, since this basically equalizes PIDs and file handlers.
This does not make #460 obsolete for now. In fact: #460 would greatly smooth the transition from the current state to the state of this proposal.
