* 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 Stephens2011-05-103-8/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Stephens2011-05-103-41/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: Avoid recomputation of outgoing message lengthAllan Stephens2011-05-108-66/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rework TIPC's message sending routines to take advantage of the total amount of data value passed to it by the kernel socket infrastructure. This change eliminates the need for TIPC to compute the size of outgoing messages itself, as well as the check for an oversize message in tipc_msg_build(). 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). Now that the recalculation is being eliminated, the argument value being passed to send_packet() is significant and we have to supply the actual amount of data we want to send.

* tipc: Abort excessive send requests as early as possibleAllan Stephens2011-05-101-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | Adds checks to TIPC's socket send routines to promptly detect and abort attempts to send more than 66,000 bytes in a single TIPC message or more than 2**31-1 bytes in a single TIPC byte stream request. In addition, this ensures that the number of iovecs in a send request does not exceed the limits of a standard integer variable.

* tipc: Strengthen checks for neighboring node discoveryAllan Stephens2011-05-102-4/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | Modifies a TIPC send routine that did not discard the outgoing sk_buff if it was not transmitted because of link congestion; this eliminates the potential for buffer leakage in the many callers who did not clean up the unsent buffer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Set the destination node and destination port fields of an outgoing multicast message header to zero; this is necessary to ensure that the receiving node can route the message properly if it was packed into a bundle due to link congestion.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Ensures that all outgoing data messages have the "name lookup scope" field of their header set correctly; that is, named multicast messages now specify cluster-wide name lookup, while messages not using TIPC naming zero out the lookup field.

* tipc: Fix issues with fragmentation of an existing message bufferAllan Stephens2011-05-101-14/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modifies the routine that fragments an existing message buffer to use similar logic to that used when generating fragments from an iovec. The routine now creates a complete chain of fragments and adds them to the link transmit queue as a unit, so that the link sends all fragments or none; this prevents the incomplete transmission of a fragmented message that might otherwise result because of link congestion or memory exhaustion. This change also ensures that the counter recording the number of fragmented messages sent by the link is now incremented only if the message is actually sent.

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 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ensures that the "redundant link exists" field of the LINK_PROTOCOL messages sent by a link endpoint is set if and only if the sending node has at least one other working link to the peer node. Previously, the bit was set only if there were at least 2 working links to the peer node, meaning the bit was incorrectly left unset in messages sent by a non-working link endpoint when exactly one alternate working link was available.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replaces the dynamically allocated array of pointers to the cluster's node objects with a static hash table. Hash collisions are resolved using chaining, with a typical hash chain having only a single node, to avoid degrading performance during processing of incoming packets. The conversion to a hash table reduces the memory requirements for TIPC's node table to approximately the same size it had prior to the previous commit. In addition to the hash table itself, TIPC now also maintains a linked list for the node objects, sorted by ascending network address. This list allows TIPC to continue sending responses to user space applications that request node and link information in sorted order. The list also improves performance when name table update messages are sent by making it easier to identify the nodes that must be notified.

TIPC now automatically provides support for all 4K nodes allowed by its addressing scheme. Note: This change sets TIPC's memory usage to the amount used by a maximum size node table with 4K entries.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Prevents a null pointer dereference from occurring if a node subscription is triggered at the same time that the subscribing port or publication is terminating the subscription. The problem arises if the triggering routine asynchronously activates and deregisters the node subscription while deregistration is already underway -- the deregistration routine may find that the pointer it has just verified to be non-NULL is now NULL. To avoid this race condition the triggering routine now simply marks the node subscription as defunct (to prevent it from re-activating) instead of deregistering it. The subscription is now both deregistered and destroyed only when the subscribing port or publication code terminates the node subscription.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Enhance TIPC to skip unnecessary (and, in some cases, redundant) preparation work when sending a broadcast link NACK message, since this preparation is only required for broadcast messages that are sent in a reliable manner. This change also fixes a bug that caused NACK messages to be improperly counted as "TX packets" in TIPC's broadcast link statistics.
