* tipc: Eliminate trivial buffer manipulation helper routinesAllan Stephens2012-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | Gets rid of two inlined routines that simply call existing sk_buff manipulation routines, since there is no longer any extra processing done by the helper routines. Note that these changes are essentially cosmetic in nature, and have no impact on the actual operation of TIPC.

* tipc: Prevent loss of fragmented messages over broadcast linkAllan Stephens2012-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modifies broadcast link so that an incoming fragmented message is not lost if reassembly cannot begin because there currently is no buffer big enough to hold the entire reassembled message. The broadcast link 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. To do this cleanly without duplicaton, a new bclink_accept_pkt() function is introduced.

* tipc: Major redesign of broadcast link ACK/NACK algorithmsAllan Stephens2012-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes a pair of problems in broadcast link message reception code relating to the reclamation of the node lock after consuming an in-sequence message. 1) Now retests to see if the sending node is still up after reclaiming the node lock, and bails out if it is non-operational. 2) Now manipulates the node's deferred message queue only after reclaiming the node lock, rather than using queue head pointer information that was cached previously.

* tipc: Combine bearer structure with tipc_bearer structureAllan Stephens2011-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Prevent a TIPC node from sending out a LINK_STATE message advertising a broadcast message that it is in the process of sending, but has not yet actually sent. Previously, it was possible for a link timeout to occur in between the time the broadcast link updated its "last message sent" counter and the time the broadcast message was passed to the broadcast bearer for transmission. This ensures that the code which issues the LINK_STATE message isn't informed of the new message until the broadcast bearer has had a chance to send it. Note: The "last message sent" value is stored in the "fsm_msg_count" field of the link structure used by the broadcast link. Since the broadcast link doesn't utilize the normal link FSM, this field can be re-used rather than adding a new field to the broadcast link.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow TIPC's broadcast link to continue operation when it is unable to send a message to all nodes in the cluster. Previously, the broadcast link attempted to put the broadcast pseudo-bearer into a blocked state; however, this caused a crash because the associated bearer structure is only partially initialized. Further investigation has revealed some conceptual problems with blocking the pseudo-bearer; consequently, this functionality has been disabled for the time being and the undelivered message is eventually resent by the broadcast link's existing message retransmission mechanism (if possible).
