      tipc: remove print_buf and deprecated log buffer code · 869dd466
      Erik Hugne authored 
      The internal log buffer handling functions can now safely be
removed since there is no code using it anymore.  Requests to
interact with the internal tipc log buffer over netlink (in
config.c) will report 'obsolete command'.

This represents the final removal of any references to a
struct print_buf, and the removal of the struct itself.
We also get rid of a TIPC specific Kconfig in the process.

Finally, log.h is removed since it is not needed anymore.

      tipc: phase out most of the struct print_buf usage · dc1aed37
      Erik Hugne authored 
      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.

      tipc: simplify print buffer handling in tipc_printf · e2dbd601
      Erik Hugne authored 
      tipc_printf was previously used both to construct debug traces
and to append data to buffers that should be sent over netlink
to the tipc-config application.  A global print_buffer was
used to format the string before it was copied to the actual
output buffer.  This could lead to concurrent access of the
global print_buffer, which then had to be lock protected.
This is simplified by changing tipc_printf to append data
directly to the output buffer using vscnprintf.

With the new implementation of tipc_printf, there is no longer
any risk of concurrent access to the internal log buffer, so
the lock (and the comments describing it) are no longer
strictly necessary.  However, there are still a few functions
that do grab this lock before resizing/dumping the log
buffer.  We leave the lock, and these functions untouched since
they will be removed with a subsequent commit that drops the
deprecated log buffer handling code
