Summary
The previous implementation depended on
avahi-daemonfor DNS-SD/mDNS service discovery and advertisement. While this works well on typical Linux desktop/server environments,avahi-daemonis relatively heavy for embedded targets and introduces extra runtime dependencies, daemon management, and deployment complexity.This is especially problematic for cross-platform support, particularly on Android, where running and managing an external Avahi daemon is not practical and may conflict with the platform’s permission and service model.
This PR rewrites the mDNS responder internally, removing the dependency on Avahi/DNS-SD while keeping the required service discovery and advertisement behavior.
Triggered on push and PR to master/main branches.
Motivation
avahi-daemonChanges
Validation
The rewritten mDNS responder has been tested and verified successfully, including service discovery and response behavior.
