Doesn't seem fixed in master, let's check this again...

This is already fixed in master branch (see attached patch)

Ok, so reading the patch you attached, this is something fixed in master but not fixed for 2.1.2? If so, please do cherry-picking properly: leave the commit message intact and add a correct commit hash from master that you picked from.

Ideally, point us to the bug # of the fix here, too.

Time for lwIP is short lately for all "active" members of the team, so if you could provide a patch fixing this (I haven't reproduced this, yet)...

LWIP version 2.1.2
The line for the fix is incorrect in the original submission. It should be line 1010.

This pseudocode would result in lwip_select() waking up for data received once (if less than 1000 bytes), but not second time data is received:

while( 1 )
{
   lwip_select( maxfdp1, &readset, NULL, NULL, NULL);
   lwip_read( s, pData, 1000 );
}


The reason is that when first data is read with lwip_read(), the loop in lwip_recv_tcp() is not exited resulting in calling
netconn_recv_tcp_pbuf_flags() twice which will call:
   ->netconn_recv_data_tcp()
      ->netconn_recv_data()
          ->API_EVENT(conn, NETCONN_EVT_RCVMINUS, len);

That results in decrementing the sock->rcvevent twice which, if only one receive event has occured, will then be -1. So next receive event will restore it to 0, but select() won't wake since it should be >0.

A fix is to change the exit condition for the loop in lwip_recv_tcp() in socket.c at line 1025 from

} while ((recv_left > 0) && !(flags & MSG_PEEK));

to

} while ((recv_left > 0) && !(flags & MSG_PEEK) && (sock->rcvevent > 0) );
