CubeMX deficiency: LwIP DCHP host name hard-wired

[Dave Nadler]

Using FreeRTOS + LwIP 2.x

In the generated file ethernetif.c you have:

err_t ethernetif_init(struct netif *netif)
{
 LWIP_ASSERT("netif != NULL", (netif != NULL));
 
#if LWIP_NETIF_HOSTNAME
 /* Initialize interface hostname */
 netif->hostname = "lwip";
#endif /* LWIP_NETIF_HOSTNAME */

Anyone using DHCP typically needs to provide a distinct host name (for example productName-serialNo). Needs a user code block here; possibly just wrap above assignment with a user code block so its generated with an easily overridable default.

Thanks!
