tipc: eliminate race condition at multicast reception

2015-02-06T00:00:03+00:00

In a previous commit in this series we resolved a race problem during
unicast message reception.

Here, we resolve the same problem at multicast reception. We apply the
same technique: an input queue serializing the delivery of arriving
buffers. The main difference is that here we do it in two steps.
First, the broadcast link feeds arriving buffers into the tail of an
arrival queue, which head is consumed at the socket level, and where
destination lookup is performed. Second, if the lookup is successful,
the resulting buffer clones are fed into a second queue, the input
queue. This queue is consumed at reception in the socket just like
in the unicast case. Both queues are protected by the same lock, -the
one of the input queue.

tipc: simplify socket multicast reception

2015-02-06T00:00:03+00:00

The structure 'tipc_port_list' is used to collect port numbers
representing multicast destination socket on a receiving node.
The list is not based on a standard linked list, and is in reality
optimized for the uncommon case that there are more than one
multicast destinations per node. This makes the list handling
unecessarily complex, and as a consequence, even the socket
multicast reception becomes more complex.

In this commit, we replace 'tipc_port_list' with a new 'struct
tipc_plist', which is based on a standard list. We give the new
list stack (push/pop) semantics, someting that simplifies
the implementation of the function tipc_sk_mcast_rcv().

tipc: name tipc name table support net namespace

2015-01-12T21:24:33+00:00

TIPC name table is used to store the mapping relationship between
TIPC service name and socket port ID. When tipc supports namespace,
it allows users to publish service names only owned by a certain
namespace. Therefore, every namespace must have its private name
table to prevent service names published to one namespace from being
contaminated by other service names in another namespace. Therefore,
The name table global variable (ie, nametbl) and its lock must be
moved to tipc_net structure, and a parameter of namespace must be
added for necessary functions so that they can obtain name table
variable defined in tipc_net structure.

tipc: make tipc node table aware of net namespace

2015-01-12T21:24:32+00:00

Global variables associated with node table are below:
- node table list (node_htable)
- node hash table list (tipc_node_list)
- node table lock (node_list_lock)
- node number counter (tipc_num_nodes)
- node link number counter (tipc_num_links)

To make node table support namespace, above global variables must be
moved to tipc_net structure in order to keep secret for different
namespaces. As a consequence, these variables are allocated and
initialized when namespace is created, and deallocated when namespace
is destroyed. After the change, functions associated with these
variables have to utilize a namespace pointer to access them. So
adding namespace pointer as a parameter of these functions is the
major change made in the commit.

tipc: convert name table read-write lock to RCU

2014-12-09T01:39:57+00:00

Convert tipc name table read-write lock to RCU. After this change,
a new spin lock is used to protect name table on write side while
RCU is applied on read side.

tipc: make name table allocated dynamically

2014-12-09T01:39:56+00:00

Name table locking policy is going to be adjusted from read-write
lock protection to RCU lock protection in the future commits. But
its essential precondition is to convert the allocation way of name
table from static to dynamic mode.

tipc: remove node subscription infrastructure

2014-11-26T17:30:16+00:00

The node subscribe infrastructure represents a virtual base class, so
its users, such as struct tipc_port and struct publication, can derive
its implemented functionalities. However, after the removal of struct
tipc_port, struct publication is left as its only single user now. So
defining an abstract infrastructure for one user becomes no longer
reasonable. If corresponding new functions associated with the
infrastructure are moved to name_table.c file, the node subscription
infrastructure can be removed as well.
