* tipc: Revise timings used when sending link request messagesAllan Stephens2011-05-101-30/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revises the algorithm governing the sending of link request messages to take into account the number of nodes each bearer is currently in contact with, and to ensure more rapid rediscovery of neighboring nodes if a bearer fails and then recovers. The discovery object now sends requests at least once a second if it is not in contact with any other nodes, and at least once a minute if it has at least one neighbor; if contact with the only neighbor is lost, the object immediately reverts to its initial rapid-fire search timing to accelerate the rediscovery process. In addition, the discovery object now stops issuing link request messages if it is in contact with the only neighboring node it is configured to communicate with, since further searching is unnecessary.

* tipc: Add monitoring of number of nodes discovered by bearerAllan Stephens2011-05-101-5/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Augments TIPC's discovery object to track the number of neighboring nodes having an active link to the associated bearer. This means tipc_disc_update_link_req() becomes either one of: tipc_disc_add_dest() or: tipc_disc_remove_dest() depending on the code flow direction of things.

* tipc: Enhance sending of discovery object link request messagesAllan Stephens2011-05-101-1/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | Augments TIPC's discovery object to send its initial neighbor discovery request message as soon as the associated bearer is created, rather than waiting for its first periodic timeout to occur, thereby speeding up the discovery process. Also adds a check to suppress the initial request or subsequent requests if the bearer is blocked at the time the request is scheduled for transmission.

* tipc: Enhance handling of discovery object creation failuresAllan Stephens2011-05-101-24/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modifies bearer creation and deletion code to improve handling of scenarios when a neighbor discovery object cannot be created. The creation routine now aborts the creation of a bearer if its discovery object cannot be created, and deletes the newly created bearer, rather than failing quietly and leaving an unusable bearer hanging around. Since the exit via the goto label really isn't a definitive failure in all cases, relabel it appropriately.

* tipc: Strengthen checks for neighboring node discoveryAllan Stephens2011-05-101-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Enhances existing checks on the discovery domain associated with a TIPC bearer. A bearer can no longer be configured to accept links from itself only (which would be pointless), or to nodes outside its own cluster (since multi-cluster support has now been removed from TIPC). Also, the neighbor discovery routine now validates link setup requests against the configured discovery domain for the bearer, rather than simply ensuring the requesting node belongs to the node's own cluster.

* tipc: Don't respond to neighbor discovery request on blocked bearerAllan Stephens2011-03-131-1/+1

* tipc: Eliminate unnecessary constant for neighbor discovery msg sizeAllan Stephens2011-03-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Eliminates an unnecessary constant that defines the size of a LINK_CONFIG message, and uses one of the existing standard message size symbols in its place. (The defunct constant was located in the wrong place anyway, since it was grouped with other constants that define message users instead of message sizes.)

* tipc: Optimizations to link creation codeAllan Stephens2011-03-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* tipc: Give Tx of discovery responses priority over link messagesAllan Stephens2011-03-131-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* tipc: Cosmetic changes to neighbor discovery logicAllan Stephens2011-03-131-44/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* tipc: Combine bearer structure with tipc_bearer structureAllan Stephens2011-02-231-13/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

* tipc: Remove prototype code for supporting slave nodesAllan Stephens2011-01-011-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
