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.

2011-02-23tipc: Remove unused message header field for requested number of linksAllan Stephens
Eliminates support for the "number of requested links" field in a neighbor discovery message. This field was never used and has been removed from the TIPC 2.0 protocol specification.

2011-02-23tipc: Combine bearer structure with tipc_bearer structureAllan Stephens
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". The changes do not otherwise alter the operation of TIPC bearers. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <Allan.Stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-01-01tipc: cleanup various cosmetic whitespace issuesAllan Stephens
Cleans up TIPC's source code to eliminate deviations from generally accepted coding conventions relating to leading/trailing white space and white space around commas, braces, cases, and sizeof.

2011-01-01tipc: Remove prototype code for supporting slave nodesAllan Stephens
Simplifies routines and data structures that were intended to allow TIPC to support slave nodes (i.e. nodes that did not have links to all of the other nodes in its cluster, forcing TIPC to route messages that it could not deliver directly through a non-slave node). Currently, TIPC supports only networks containing non-slave nodes, so this code is unnecessary. Note: The latest edition of the TIPC 2.0 Specification has eliminated the concept of slave nodes entirely.

Remove all instances of legacy, or as yet to be implemented code that is currently living within an #if 0 ... #endif block.

2010-08-17tipc: Prevent missing name table entries when link flip-flops rapidlyAllan Stephens
Ensure that TIPC does not re-establish communication with a neighboring node until it has finished updating all data structures containing information about that node to reflect the earlier loss of contact. Previously, it was possible for TIPC to perform its purge of name table entries relating to the node once contact had already been re-established, resulting in the unwanted removal of valid name table entries.

These functions have enough code in them such that they seem like sensible targets for un-inlining. Prior to doing that, this adds the tipc_ prefix to the functions, so that in the event of a panic dump or similar, the subsystem from which the functions come from is immediately clear.

2006-10-18[TIPC]: Fixed slow link reactivation when link tolerance is largeAllan Stephens
This patch corrects an issue wherein a previouly failed node could not reestablish a links to a non-failing node in the TIPC network until the latter node detected the link failure itself (which might be configured to take up to 30 seconds). The non-failing node now responds to link setup requests from a previously failed node in at most 1 second, allowing it to detect the link failure more quickly.
