tipc: Remove unneeded parameter to tipc_createport_raw()

2008-07-15T05:42:19+00:00

This patch eliminates an unneeded parameter when creating a low-level
TIPC port object.  Instead of returning both the pointer to the port
structure and the port's reference ID, it now returns only the pointer
since the port structure contains the reference ID as one of its fields.

tipc: Fix race condition when creating socket or native port

2008-05-12T22:42:28+00:00

This patch eliminates the (very remote) chance of a crash resulting
from a partially initialized socket or native port unexpectedly
receiving a message.  Now, during the creation of a socket or native
port, the underlying generic port's lock is not released until all
initialization required to handle incoming messages has been done.

[TIPC]: Overhaul of socket locking logic

2008-04-15T07:22:02+00:00

This patch modifies TIPC's socket code to follow the same approach
used by other protocols.  This change eliminates the need for a
mutex in the TIPC-specific portion of the socket protocol data
structure -- in its place, the standard Linux socket backlog queue
and associated locking routines are utilized.  These changes fix
a long-standing receive queue bug on SMP systems, and also enable
individual read and write threads to utilize a socket without
unnecessarily interfering with each other.

[TIPC]: Removal of message header option code

2008-03-06T23:05:07+00:00

This patch removes code associated with optional, user-specified
fields of the TIPC message header.  Such fields were never
utilized by TIPC, and have now been removed from the protocol
specification.

[TIPC]: Optimize stream send routine to avoid fragmentation

2007-07-11T05:06:12+00:00

This patch enhances TIPC's stream socket send routine so that
it avoids transmitting data in chunks that require fragmentation
and reassembly, thereby improving performance at both the
sending and receiving ends of the connection.

The "maximum packet size" hint that records MTU info allows
the socket to decide how big a chunk it should send; in the
event that the hint has become stale, fragmentation may still
occur, but the data will be passed correctly and the hint will
be updated in time for the following send.  Note: The 66060 byte
pseudo-MTU used for intra-node connections requires the send
routine to perform an additional check to ensure it does not
exceed TIPC"s limit of 66000 bytes of user data per chunk.
