2011-03-13tipc: Correct misnamed references to neighbor discovery domainAllan Stephens
Renames items that are improperly labelled as "network scope" items (which are represented by simple integer values) rather than "network domain" items (which are represented by <Z.C.N>-type network addresses). This change is purely cosmetic, and does not affect the operation of TIPC. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <Allan.Stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-03-13tipc: Optimizations to link creation codeAllan Stephens
Enhances link creation code as follows: 1) Detects illegal attempts to add a requested link earlier in the link creation process. This prevents TIPC from wasting time initializing a link object it then throws away, and also eliminates the code needed to do the throwing away. 2) Passes in the node object associated with the requested link. This allows TIPC to eliminate a search to locate the node object, as well as code that attempted to create the node if it doesn't exist.

2011-03-13tipc: Give Tx of discovery responses priority over link messagesAllan Stephens
Delay releasing the node lock when processing a neighbor discovery message until after the optional discovery response message has been sent. This helps ensure that any link protocol messages sent by a link endpoint created as a result of a neighbor discovery request are received after the discovery response is received, thereby giving the receiving node a chance to create a peer link endpoint to consume those link protocol messages, if one does not already exist.

2011-03-13tipc: Cosmetic changes to neighbor discovery logicAllan Stephens
Reworks the appearance of the routine that processes incoming LINK_CONFIG messages to keep the main logic flow at a consistent level of indentation, and to add comments outlining the various phases involved in processing each message. This rework is being done to allow upcoming enhancements to this routine to be integrated more cleanly. The diff isn't really readable, so know that it was a case of the old code being like: tipc_disc_recv_msg(..) { if (in_own_cluster(orig)) { ... lines and lines of stuff ... } } which is now replaced with the more sane: tipc_disc_recv_msg(..) { if (!in_own_cluster(orig)) return; ... lines and lines of stuff ... } Instances of spin locking within the reindented block were replaced with the identical tipc_node_[un]lock() abstractions. Note that all these changes are cosmetic in nature, and do not change the way LINK_CONFIG messages are processed.

2011-03-13tipc: Fix redundant link field handling in link protocol messageAllan Stephens
Ensures that the "redundant link exists" field of the LINK_PROTOCOL messages sent by a link endpoint is set if and only if the sending node has at least one other working link to the peer node. Previously, the bit was set only if there were at least 2 working links to the peer node, meaning the bit was incorrectly left unset in messages sent by a non-working link endpoint when exactly one alternate working link was available. The revised code now takes the state of the link sending the message into account when deciding if an alternate link exists.

2011-03-13tipc: make msg_set_redundant_link() consistent with other set opsAllan Stephens
All the other boolean like msg_set_X(m) operations don't export both a msg_set_X(a) and a msg_clear_X(m), but instead just have the single msg_set_X(m, val) variant. Make the redundant_link one consistent by having the set take a value, and delete the msg_clear_redundant_link() anomoly. This is a cosmetic change and should not change behaviour.

2011-03-13tipc: cosmetic - function names are not to be full sentencesPaul Gortmaker
Function names like "tipc_node_has_redundant_links" are unweildy and result in long lines even for simple lines. The "has" doesn't contribute any value add, so dropping that is a slight step in the right direction. This is a cosmetic change, basic result of: for i in `grep -l tipc_node_has_ *` ; do sed -i s/tipc_node_has_/tipc_node_/ $i ; done Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-03-13tipc: Eliminate timestamp from link protocol messagesAllan Stephens
Removes support for the timestamp field of TIPC's link protocol messages. This field was previously used to hold an OS-dependent timestamp value that was used to assist in debugging early versions of TIPC. The field has now been deemed unnecessary and has been removed from the latest TIPC specification. This change has no impact on the operation of TIPC since the field was set by TIPC, but never referenced.

2011-03-13tipc: manually inline net_start/stop, make assoc. vars staticAllan Stephens
Relocates network-related variables into the subsystem files where they are now primarily used (following the recent rework of TIPC's node table), and converts globals into locals where possible. Changes the initialization of tipc_num_links from run-time to compile-time, and eliminates the net_start routine that becomes empty as a result. Also eliminates the corresponding net_stop routine by moving its (trivial) content into the one location that called the routine.

2011-03-13tipc: Convert node object array to a hash tableAllan Stephens
Replaces the dynamically allocated array of pointers to the cluster's node objects with a static hash table. Hash collisions are resolved using chaining, with a typical hash chain having only a single node, to avoid degrading performance during processing of incoming packets. The conversion to a hash table reduces the memory requirements for TIPC's node table to approximately the same size it had prior to the previous commit. In addition to the hash table itself, TIPC now also maintains a linked list for the node objects, sorted by ascending network address. This list allows TIPC to continue sending responses to user space applications that request node and link information in sorted order. The list also improves performance when name table update messages are sent by making it easier to identify the nodes that must be notified.

2011-03-13tipc: Eliminate configuration for maximum number of cluster nodesAllan Stephens
Gets rid of the need for users to specify the maximum number of cluster nodes supported by TIPC. TIPC now automatically provides support for all 4K nodes allowed by its addressing scheme. Note: This change sets TIPC's memory usage to the amount used by a maximum size node table with 4K entries. An upcoming patch that converts the node table from a linear array to a hash table will compact the node table to a more efficient design, but for clarity it is nice to have all the Kconfig infrastruture go away separately.

2011-03-13tipc: Split up unified structure of network-related variablesAllan Stephens
Converts the fields of the global "tipc_net" structure into individual variables. Since the struct was never referenced as a complete unit, its existence was pointless. This will facilitate upcoming changes to TIPC's node table and simpify upcoming relocation of the variables so they are only visible to the files that actually use them. This change is essentially cosmetic in nature, and doesn't affect the operation of TIPC.

2011-03-13tipc: Fix problem with missing link in "tipc-config -l" outputAllan Stephens
Removes a race condition that could cause TIPC's internal counter of the number of links it has to neighboring nodes to have the incorrect value if two independent threads of control simultaneously create new link endpoints connecting to two different nodes using two different bearers. Such under counting would result in TIPC failing to list the final link(s) in its response to a configuration request to list all of the node's links. The counter is now updated atomically to ensure that simultaneous increments do not interfere with each other.

2011-03-13tipc: Cosmetic changes to node subscription codeAllan Stephens
Relocates the code that notifies users of node subscriptions so that it is adjacent to the rest of the routines that implement TIPC's node subscription capability. Renames the name table routine that is invoked by a node subscription to better reflect its purpose and to be consistent with other, similar name table routines.

2011-03-13tipc: Prevent null pointer error when removing a node subscriptionAllan Stephens
Prevents a null pointer dereference from occurring if a node subscription is triggered at the same time that the subscribing port or publication is terminating the subscription. The problem arises if the triggering routine asynchronously activates and deregisters the node subscription while deregistration is already underway -- the deregistration routine may find that the pointer it has just verified to be non-NULL is now NULL. To avoid this race condition the triggering routine now simply marks the node subscription as defunct (to prevent it from re-activating) instead of deregistering it. The subscription is now both deregistered and destroyed only when the subscribing port or publication code terminates the node subscription.

Fixes a typo in the calculation of the network address of a node's own cluster when generating a response to the configuration command that lists all of the node's links.

2011-03-13tipc: Allow receiving into iovec containing multiple entriesAllan Stephens
Enhances TIPC's socket receive routines to support iovec structures containing more than a single entry. This change leverages existing sk_buff routines to do most of the work; the only significant change to TIPC itself is that an sk_buff now records how much data has been already consumed as an numeric offset, rather than as a pointer to the first unread data byte.

2011-02-23tipc: Avoid reliable broadcast preparation for NACK messagesAllan Stephens

2011-02-23tipc: Fix port counter handling to correct congestion controlAllan Stephens
Modifies TIPC's congestion control between a connected port and its peer so that it works as documented. The following changes have been made: 1) The counter of the number of messages sent by a port now starts at zero, rather than one. This prevents the port from reporting port congestion one message earlier than it was supposed to. 2) The counter of the number of messages sent by a port is now incremented only if a non-empty message is sent successfully. This prevents the port from becoming permanently congested if too many send attempts are unsuccessful because of congestion (or other reasons). It also removes the risk that empty hand- shaking messages used during connection setup might cause the port to report congestion earlier than it was supposed to. 3) The counter of the number of unacknowledged messages received by a port controlled by an internal TIPC service is now incremented only if the message is non-empty, in order to be consistent with the aforementioned changes.

2011-02-23tipc: Improve handling of invalid link tolerance valuesAllan Stephens
Enhances TIPC link code to ignore an invalid link tolerance value contained in an incoming LINK_PROTOCOL message, rather than processing the value and potentially causing a divide-by-zero error.

Combines two distinct structures containing information about a TIPC bearer into a single structure. The structures were previously kept separate so that public information about a bearer could be made available to plug-in media types using TIPC's native API, while the remaining information was kept private for use by TIPC itself. However, now that the native API has been removed there is no longer any need for this arrangement. Since one of the structures was already embedded within the other, the change largely involves replacing instances of "publ.foo" with "foo".
