2011-12-29tipc: rename struct bearer_name to struct tipc_bearer_namesPaul Gortmaker2-6/+6
The addition of the "s" to indicate pluralization is intentional, since the struct actually contains two name variants. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-29tipc: rename struct link* to struct tipc_link*Paul Gortmaker10-146/+156
This converts the following: struct link -> struct tipc_link struct link_req -> struct tipc_link_req struct link_name -> struct tipc_link_name Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-29tipc: rename struct bcbearer* to tipc_bcbearer*Paul Gortmaker1-10/+10
This changes both the struct bcbearer and struct bcbearer_pair to have the "tipc_" prefix. Runtime behaviour is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-29tipc: rename struct bclink to struct tipc_bclinkPaul Gortmaker1-4/+4
Make this rename so that it is consistent with the majority of the other tipc structs and to assist in removing any ambiguity with other similar names in other subsystems. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

2011-12-29tipc: rename struct media to struct tipc_mediaPaul Gortmaker5-15/+15
Give it a meaningful prefix, as suggested by DaveM, so that it is consistent with things like struct tipc_bearer, and so it isn't confused with anything else. This has no impact on the actual runtime code behaviour. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-27tipc: Allow use of buf_seqno() helper routine by unicast linksAllan Stephens3-25/+24
Migrates the buf_seqno() helper routine from broadcast link level to unicast link level so that it can be used both types of TIPC links. This is a cosmetic change only, 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>
2011-12-27tipc: Ignore broadcast acknowledgements that are out-of-rangeAllan Stephens4-13/+37
Adds checks to TIPC's broadcast link so that it ignores any acknowledgement message containing a sequence number that does not correspond to an unacknowledged message currently in the broadcast link's transmit queue. This change prevents the broadcast link from becoming stalled if a newly booted node receives stale broadcast link acknowledgement information from another node that has not yet fully synchronized its end of the broadcast link to reflect the current state of the new node's end.

2011-12-27tipc: Flush unsent broadcast messages when contact with last node is lostAllan Stephens1-1/+11
Adds code to release any unsent broadcast messages in the broadcast link transmit queue if TIPC loses contact with its only neighboring node. Previously, a broadcast link that was in the congested state would hold on to the unsent messages, even though the messages were now undeliverable.

2011-12-27tipc: Minor optimization of broadcast link transmit queue statisticAllan Stephens1-4/+4
The two broadcast link statistics fields that are used to derive the average length of that link's transmit queue are now updated only after a successful attempt to send a broadcast message, since there is no need to update these values when an unsuccessful send attempt leaves the queue unchanged. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-27tipc: Handle broadcast attempt when no neighboring nodes existAllan Stephens1-1/+7
Adds a check to detect when an attempt is made to send a message via the broadcast link and no neighboring nodes are currently available to receive it. Rather than wasting effort passing the message to the broadcast link and broadcast bearer, who will only throw it away, TIPC now frees the message immediately and reports success (i.e. the message has been delivered to all available destinations).

2011-12-27tipc: Ensure broadcast link spinlock is held when updating node mapAllan Stephens3-10/+22
Fixes oversight that allowed broadcast link node map to be updated without first taking the broadcast link spinlock that protects the map. As part of this fix the node map has been incorporated into the broadcast link structure to make the need for such protection more evident.

2011-12-27tipc: Eliminate dynamic allocation of broadcast link data structuresAllan Stephens3-31/+13
Creates global variables to hold the broadcast link's pseudo-bearer and pseudo-link structures, rather than allocating them dynamically. There is only a single instance of each structure, and changing over to static allocation allows elimination of code to handle the cases where dynamic allocation was unsuccessful. The memset in the teardown code may look like they aren't used, but the same teardown code is run when there is a non-fatal error at init-time, so that stale data isn't present when the user fixes the cause of the soft error.

2011-12-27tipc: Eliminate useless check when network address is assignedAllan Stephens1-7/+5
Gets rid of an unnecessary check in the routine that updates the port id of a node's name publications when the node is assigned a network address, since the routine is only invoked if the new address is different from the existing one.

2011-12-27tipc: Minor correction to TIPC module unloadingAllan Stephens1-1/+1
Modifies TIPC's module unloading logic to switch itself into "single node" mode before starting to terminate networking support. This helps to ensure that no operations that require TIPC to be in "networking" mode can initiate once unloading starts. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-27tipc: Eliminate useless memset operations in Ethernet media supportAllan Stephens1-3/+0
Gets rid of two pointless operations that zero out the array used to record information about TIPC's Ethernet bearers. There is no need to initialize the array on start up since it is a global variable that is already zero'd out, and there is no need to zero it out on exit because the array is never referenced again. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-27tipc: Do timely cleanup of disabled Ethernet bearer resourcesAllan Stephens1-12/+27
Modifies Ethernet bearer disable logic to break the association between the bearer and its device driver at the time the bearer is disabled, rather than when the TIPC module is unloaded. This allows the array entry used by the disabled bearer to be re-used if the same bearer (or a different one) is subsequently enabled.

2011-12-27tipc: Minor optimization to deactivation of Ethernet media suppotAllan Stephens2-5/+1
Change TIPC's shutdown code to deactivate generic networking support before terminating Ethernet media support. The deactivation of generic networking support causes all existing bearers to be destroyed, meaning the Ethernet media termination routine no longer has to bother marking them as unavailable.

2011-12-27tipc: Revise comment justifying release of configuration spinlockAllan Stephens1-7/+6
Comment-only change to better explain why TIPC's configuration lock is temporarily released while activating support for network interfaces, and why the existing activation code doesn't require rework. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-27tipc: Allow run-time alteration of default link settingsAllan Stephens3-49/+127
Permits run-time alteration of default link settings on a per-media and per-bearer basis, in addition to the existing per-link basis. The following syntax can now be used: tipc-config -lt=<link-name|bearer-name|media-name>/<tolerance> tipc-config -lp=<link-name|bearer-name|media-name>/<priority> tipc-config -lw=<link-name|bearer-name|media-name>/<window> Note that changes to the default settings for a given media type has no effect on the default settings used by existing bearers. Similarly, changes to default bearer settings has no effect on existing link endpoints that utilize that interface. Thanks to Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> for his contributions to the development of this enhancement.

2011-12-27tipc: Ignore neighbor discovery messages containing invalid addressAllan Stephens1-0/+3
Adds a check to ensure that TIPC ignores an incoming neighbor discovery message that specifies an invalid media address as its source. The check ensures that the source address is a valid, non-broadcast address that could legally be used by a neighboring link endpoint.

2011-12-27tipc: Hide media-specific addressing details from generic bearer codeAllan Stephens6-41/+41
Reworks TIPC's media address data structure and associated processing routines to transfer all media-specific details of address conversion to the associated TIPC media adaptation code. TIPC's generic bearer code now only needs to know which media type an address is associated with and whether or not it is a broadcast address, and totally ignores the "value" field that contains the actual media-specific addressing info. These changes eliminate the need for a number of endianness conversion operations and will make it easier for TIPC to support new media types in the future. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-12-27tipc: Add new address conversion routines for Ethernet mediaAllan Stephens2-3/+79
Enhances TIPC's Ethernet media support to provide 3 new address conversion routines, which allow TIPC to interpret an address that is in string form and to convert an address to and from the 20 byte format used in TIPC's neighbor discovery messages. These routines are pre-requisites to a follow on commit that hides all media-specific addressing details from TIPC's generic bearer code.

2011-12-27tipc: Improve handling of media address printing errorsAllan Stephens3-15/+12
Enhances conversion of a media address to printable form so that an unconvertable address will be displayed as a string of hex digits, rather than not being displayed at all. (Also removes a pointless check for the existence of the media-specific address conversion routine, since the routine is not optional.)

2011-12-27tipc: Streamline media registration error checkingAllan Stephens1-29/+8
Simplifies error handling performed during media registration, since TIPC no longer supports the dynamic addition of new media types that are potentially error-prone. These simplifications include the following: 1) No longer check for premature registration of a new media type. 2) No longer check for negative link priority values (which was pointless since such values are unsigned, and could cause a compiler warning). 3) No longer generate a warning describing the exact cause of any registration failure (just warns that overall registration failed).

2011-12-27tipc: Eliminate duplication of media structuresAllan Stephens1-20/+15
Changes TIPC's list of registered media types from an array of media structures to an array of pointers to media structures. This eliminates the need to copy of the contents of the structure passed in during media registration.

2011-12-27tipc: Optimize detection of duplicate media registrationAllan Stephens1-19/+21
Streamlines the detection of an attempt to register a TIPC media structure using an already registered name or type identifier. The revised logic now reuses an existing routine to detect an existing name and no longer unnecessarily manipulates the media type counter during an unsuccessful registration attempt.

2011-12-27tipc: Register new media using pre-compiled structureAllan Stephens3-66/+45

2011-12-27tipc: Enable use by containers having their own network namespaceAllan Stephens1-3/+0
Permits a Linux container to use TIPC sockets even when it has its own network namespace defined by removing the check that prohibits such use.

2011-09-17tipc: Enhance sending of bulk name table messagesAllan Stephens3-2/+54
Modifies the initial transfer of name table entries to a new neighboring node so that the messages are enqueued as a unit, rather than individually. The revised algorithm now locates the link carrying the message only once, and eliminates unnecessary checks for link congestion, message fragmentation, and message bundling that are not required when sending these messages.

2011-09-17tipc: relocate/coalesce node cast in tipc_named_node_upPaul Gortmaker1-2/+3
Functions like this are called using unsigned longs from function pointers. In this case, the function is passed in a node which is normally internally treated as a u32 by TIPC. Rather than add more casts into this function in the future for each added use of node within, move the cast to a single place on a local. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-09-17tipc: Prevent fragmented messages during initial name table exchangeAllan Stephens1-3/+19
Reduces the maximum size of messages sent during the initial exchange of name table information between two nodes to be no larger than the MTU of the first link established between the nodes. This ensures that messages will never need to be fragmented, which would add unnecessary overhead to the name table synchronization mechanism.

2011-09-17tipc: Lower limits for number of bearers and media typesAllan Stephens2-3/+3
Reduces the number of bearers a node can support to 2, which can use identical or non-identical media. This change won't impact users, since they are currently limited to a maximum of 2 Ethernet bearers, and will save memory by eliminating a number of unused entries in TIPC's media and bearer arrays.

2011-09-17tipc: Fix unsafe device list search when enabling bearerAllan Stephens1-2/+4

2011-09-17tipc: Ensure both nodes recognize loss of contact between themAllan Stephens4-18/+42
Enhances TIPC to ensure that a node that loses contact with a neighboring node does not allow contact to be re-established until it sees that its peer has also recognized the loss of contact. Previously, nodes that were connected by two or more links could encounter a situation in which node A would lose contact with node B on all of its links, purge its name table of names published by B, and then fail to repopulate those names once contact with B was restored. This would happen because B was able to re-establish one or more links so quickly that it never reached a point where it had no links to A -- meaning that B never saw a loss of contact with A, and consequently didn't re-publish its names to A. This problem is now prevented by enhancing the cleanup done by TIPC following a loss of contact with a neighboring node to ensure that node A ignores all messages sent by B until it receives a LINK_PROTOCOL message that indicates B has lost contact with A, thereby preventing the (re)establishment of links between the nodes. The loss of contact is recognized when a RESET or ACTIVATE message is received that has a "redundant link exists" field of 0, indicating that B's sending link endpoint is in a reset state and that B has no other working links. Additionally, TIPC now suppresses the sending of (most) link protocol messages to a neighboring node while it is cleaning up after an earlier loss of contact with that node. This stops the peer node from prematurely activating its link endpoint, which would prevent TIPC from later activating its own end. TIPC still allows outgoing RESET messages to occur during cleanup, to avoid problems if its own node recognizes the loss of contact first and tries to notify the peer of the situation. Finally, TIPC now recognizes an impending loss of contact with a peer node as soon as it receives a RESET message on a working link that is the peer's only link to the node, and ensures that the link protocol suppression mentioned above goes into effect right away -- that is, even before its own link endpoints have failed. This is necessary to ensure correct operation when there are redundant links between the nodes, since otherwise TIPC would send an ACTIVATE message upon receiving a RESET on its first link and only begin suppressing when a RESET on its second link was received, instead of initiating suppression with the first RESET message as it needs to. Note: The reworked cleanup code also eliminates a check that prevented a link endpoint's discovery object from responding to incoming messages while stale name table entries are being purged. This check is now unnecessary and would have slowed down re-establishment of communication between the nodes in some situations.

2011-09-01tipc: Prevent rounding issues when saving connect timeout optionAllan Stephens1-6/+7
Saves a socket's TIPC_CONN_TIMEOUT socket option value in its original form (milliseconds), rather than jiffies.

2011-09-01tipc: Discard incoming broadcast messages that are unexpectedAllan Stephens1-2/+11
Modifies TIPC's incoming broadcast packet handler to discard messages that cannot legally be sent over the broadcast link, including: - broadcast protocol messages that do no contain state information - payload messages that are not named multicast messages - any other form of message except for bundled messages, fragmented messages, and name distribution messages. These checks are needed to prevent TIPC from handing an unexpected message to a routine that isn't prepared to handle it, which could lead to incorrect processing (up to and including invalid memory references caused by attempts to access message fields that aren't present in the message).
