tipc: eliminate configuration for maximum number of name publications

2012-08-20T09:26:31+00:00

Gets rid of the need for users to specify the maximum number of
name publications supported by TIPC. TIPC now automatically provides
support for the maximum number of name publications to 65535.

tipc: remove print_buf and deprecated log buffer code

2012-07-13T23:34:43+00:00

The internal log buffer handling functions can now safely be
removed since there is no code using it anymore.  Requests to
interact with the internal tipc log buffer over netlink (in
config.c) will report 'obsolete command'.

This represents the final removal of any references to a
struct print_buf, and the removal of the struct itself.
We also get rid of a TIPC specific Kconfig in the process.

Finally, log.h is removed since it is not needed anymore.

tipc: phase out most of the struct print_buf usage

2012-07-13T23:33:28+00:00

The tipc_printf is renamed to tipc_snprintf, as the new name
describes more what the function actually does.  It is also
changed to take a buffer and length parameter and return
number of characters written to the buffer.  All callers of
this function that used to pass a print_buf are updated.

Final removal of the struct print_buf itself will be done
synchronously with the pending removal of the deprecated
logging code that also was using it.

Functions that build up a response message with a list of
ports, nametable contents etc. are changed to return the number
of characters written to the output buffer. This information
was previously hidden in a field of the print_buf struct, and
the number of chars written was fetched with a call to
tipc_printbuf_validate.  This function is removed since it
is no longer referenced nor needed.

A generic max size ULTRA_STRING_MAX_LEN is defined, named
in keeping with the existing TIPC_TLV_ULTRA_STRING, and the
various definitions in port, link and nametable code that
largely duplicated this information are removed.  This means
that amount of link statistics that can be returned is now
increased from 2k to 32k.

The buffer overflow check is now done just before the reply
message is passed over netlink or TIPC to a remote node and
the message indicating a truncated buffer is changed to a less
dramatic one (less CAPS), placed at the end of the message.

tipc: use standard printk shortcut macros (pr_err etc.)

2012-07-13T23:24:44+00:00

All messages should go directly to the kernel log.  The TIPC
specific error, warning, info and debug trace macro's are
removed and all references replaced with pr_err, pr_warn,
pr_info and pr_debug.

Commonly used sub-strings are explicitly declared as a const
char to reduce .text size.

Note that this means the debug messages (changed to pr_debug),
are now enabled through dynamic debugging, instead of a TIPC
specific Kconfig option (TIPC_DEBUG).  The latter will be
phased out completely

tipc: compress out gratuitous extra carriage returns

2012-04-30T19:53:56+00:00

Some of the comment blocks are floating in limbo between two
functions, or between blocks of code.  Delete the extra line
feeds between any comment and its associated following block
of code, to be consistent with the majority of the rest of
the kernel.  Also delete trailing newlines at EOF and fix
a couple trivial typos in existing comments.

This is a 100% cosmetic change with no runtime impact.  We get
rid of over 500 lines of non-code, and being blank line deletes,
they won't even show up as noise in git blame.

tipc: Optimize termination of configuration service

2012-04-26T21:19:43+00:00

Termination no longer tests to see if the configuration service
port was successfully created or not. In the unlikely event that the
port was not created, attempting to delete the non-existent port is
detected gracefully and causes no harm.

tipc: Optimize re-initialization of configuration service

2012-04-26T21:19:07+00:00

Streamlines the job of re-initializing TIPC's configuration service
when a node's network address is first assigned. Rather than destroying
the configuration server port and then recreating it, TIPC now simply
withdraws the existing {0,<0.0.0>} name publication and creates a new
{0,} name publication that identifies the node's network address
to interested subscribers.

tipc: Ensure network address change doesn't impact configuration service

2012-04-19T19:46:50+00:00

Enhances command validation done by TIPC's configuration service so
that it works properly even if the node's network address is changed in
mid-operation. The default node address of <0.0.0> is now recognized as an
alias for "this node" even after a new network address has been assigned.

tipc: Eliminate support for tipc_mode global variable

2012-02-24T22:05:17+00:00

Removes all references to the global variable that records whether
TIPC is running in "single node" mode or "network" mode, since this
information can be easily deduced from the global variable that
records TIPC's network address. (i.e. a non-zero network address
means that TIPC is running in network mode.)

The changes made update most existing mode-based checks to use the
network address global variable. A few checks that are no longer
needed are removed entirely, along with any associated code lying on
non-executable control paths.
