2012-08-20tipc: remove pointless name sanity check and tipc_alphabet arrayYing Xue
There is no real reason to check whether all letters in the given media name and network interface name are within the character set defined in tipc_alphabet array. Even if we eliminate the checking, the rest of checking conditions in tipc_enable_bearer() can ensure we do not enable an invalid or illegal bearer.

2012-07-13tipc: phase out most of the struct print_buf usageErik Hugne
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.

2012-07-13tipc: remove TIPC packet debugging functions and macrosErik Hugne
The link queue traces and packet level debug functions served a purpose during early development, but are now redundant since there are other, more capable tools available for debugging at the packet level. The TIPC_DEBUG Kconfig option is removed since it does not provide any extra debugging features anymore.

2012-02-24tipc: Remove duplicate check of message destination nodeAllan Stephens
Eliminates a check in the processing of TIPC messages arriving from off node that ensures the message is destined for this node, since this check duplicates an earlier check. (The check would be necessary if TIPC needed to be able to route incoming messages to another node, but the elimination of multi-cluster support means that this never happens and all incoming messages are consumed by the receiving node.) Note: This change involves the elimination of a single "if" statement with a large "then" clause; consequently, a significant number of lines end up getting re-indented. In addition, a simple message header access routine that is no longer referenced is eliminated. However, the only functional change is the elimination of the single check described above.

2012-02-06tipc: Prevent loss of fragmented messages over unicast linksAllan Stephens
Modifies unicast link endpoint logic so an incoming fragmented message is not lost if reassembly cannot begin because there is no buffer big enough to hold the entire reassembled message. The link endpoint now ignores the first fragment completely, which causes the sending node to retransmit the first fragment so that reassembly can be re-attempted. Previously, the sender would have had no reason to retransmit the 1st fragment, so we would never have a chance to re-try the allocation. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com>
2012-02-06tipc: Major redesign of broadcast link ACK/NACK algorithmsAllan Stephens
Completely redesigns broadcast link ACK and NACK mechanisms to prevent spurious retransmit requests in dual LAN networks, and to prevent the broadcast link from stalling due to the failure of a receiving node to acknowledge receiving a broadcast message or request its retransmission. Note: These changes only impact the timing of when ACK and NACK messages are sent, and not the basic broadcast link protocol itself, so inter- operability with nodes using the "classic" algorithms is maintained. The revised algorithms are as follows: 1) An explicit ACK message is still sent after receiving 16 in-sequence messages, and implicit ACK information continues to be carried in other unicast link message headers (including link state messages). However, the timing of explicit ACKs is now based on the receiving node's absolute network address rather than its relative network address to ensure that the failure of another node does not delay the ACK beyond its 16 message target. 2) A NACK message is now typically sent only when a message gap persists for two consecutive incoming link state messages; this ensures that a suspected gap is not confirmed until both LANs in a dual LAN network have had an opportunity to deliver the message, thereby preventing spurious NACKs. A NACK message can also be generated by the arrival of a single link state message, if the deferred queue is so big that the current message gap cannot be the result of "normal" mis-ordering due to the use of dual LANs (or one LAN using a bonded interface). Since link state messages typically arrive at different nodes at different times the problem of multiple nodes issuing identical NACKs simultaneously is inherently avoided. 3) Nodes continue to "peek" at NACK messages sent by other nodes. If another node requests retransmission of a message gap suspected (but not yet confirmed) by the peeking node, the peeking node forgets about the gap and does not generate a duplicate retransmit request. (If the peeking node subsequently fails to receive the lost message, later link state messages will cause it to rediscover and confirm the gap and send another NACK.) 4) Message gap "equality" is now determined by the start of the gap only. This is sufficient to deal with the most common cases of message loss, and eliminates the need for complex end of gap computations. 5) A peeking node no longer tries to determine whether it should send a complementary NACK, since the most common cases of message loss don't require it to be sent. Consequently, the node no longer examines the "broadcast tag" field of a NACK message when peeking.

2012-02-06tipc: Fix problem with broadcast link synchronization between nodesAllan Stephens
Corrects a problem in which a link endpoint that activates as the result of receiving a RESET/STATE sequence of link protocol messages fails to properly record the broadcast link status information about the node to which it is now communicating with. (The problem does not occur with the more common RESET/ACTIVATE sequence of messages.) The fix ensures that the broadcast link status info is updated after the RESET message resets the link endpoint, rather than before, thereby preventing new information from being overwritten by the reset operation.

2012-02-06tipc: Ensure broadcast link re-acquires node after link failureAllan Stephens
Fix a bug that can prevent TIPC from sending broadcast messages to a node if contact with the node is lost and then regained. The problem occurs if the broadcast link first clears the flag indicating the node is part of the link's distribution set (when it loses contact with the node), and later fails to restore the flag (when contact is regained); restoration fails if contact with the node is regained by implicit unicast link activation triggered by the arrival of a data message, rather than explicitly by the arrival of a link activation message. The broadcast link now uses separate fields to track whether a node is theoretically capable of receiving broadcast messages versus whether it is actually part of the link's distribution set. The former member is updated by the receipt of link protocol messages, which can occur at any time; the latter member is updated only when contact with the node is gained or lost. This change also permits the simplification of several conditional expressions since the broadcast link's "supported" field can now only be set if there are working links to the associated node.

2012-02-06tipc: Prevent broadcast link stalling in dual LAN environmentsAllan Stephens
Ensure that sequence number information about incoming broadcast link messages is initialized only by the activation of the first link to a given cluster node. Previously, a race condition allowed reset and/or activation messages for a second link to re-initialize this sequence number information with obsolete values. This could trigger TIPC to request the retransmission of previously acknowledged broadcast link messages from that node, resulting in broadcast link processing becoming stalled if the node had already released one or more of those messages and was unable to perform the required retransmission.

2011-09-18tipc: Ensure both nodes recognize loss of contact between themAllan Stephens
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.

In addition, this change warrants an explanation: - res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, 0); + res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, bytes_to_send); Previously, the final argument to send_packet() was ignored (since the amount of data being sent was recalculated by a lower-level routine) and we could just pass in a dummy value (0).

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.

2011-02-23tipc: Add in missing lock during link initializationAllan Stephens
Ensure that the routine that starts up processing on a newly created link endpoint takes the spinlock of the node object that owns the link, to prevent possible conflicts with processing involving other links owned by that node object.

2011-02-23tipc: Set unused probe field of link protocol messages to defined valueAllan Stephens
Ensures that a link reset or activate message has a "probe" field of zero. (This field is currently unused in these messages, but this could potentially change in future versions of TIPC.)

2011-02-23tipc: Improve accuracy of link transmit queue maximum size statisticAllan Stephens
Enhances TIPC's unicast and broadcast link code to update the transmit queue maximum size counter in a single place, namely the routine that adds messages to the queue. This ensures that the maximum size statistic reported for unicast links is completely accurate, rather than being partially based on statistical sampling. The changes to link.h are just documenting the roles of the variables. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <Allan.Stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
