Removes support for the timestamp field of TIPC's link protocol messages. This field was previously used to hold an OS-dependent timestamp value that was used to assist in debugging early versions of TIPC. The field has now been deemed unnecessary and has been removed from the latest TIPC specification. This change has no impact on the operation of TIPC since the field was set by TIPC, but never referenced.

Relocates network-related variables into the subsystem files where they are now primarily used (following the recent rework of TIPC's node table), and converts globals into locals where possible. Changes the initialization of tipc_num_links from run-time to compile-time, and eliminates the net_start routine that becomes empty as a result. Also eliminates the corresponding net_stop routine by moving its (trivial) content into the one location that called the routine.

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.

Gets rid of the need for users to specify the maximum number of cluster nodes supported by TIPC. 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. An upcoming patch that converts the node table from a linear array to a hash table will compact the node table to a more efficient design, but for clarity it is nice to have all the Kconfig infrastruture go away separately.

Converts the fields of the global "tipc_net" structure into individual variables. Since the struct was never referenced as a complete unit, its existence was pointless. This will facilitate upcoming changes to TIPC's node table and simpify upcoming relocation of the variables so they are only visible to the files that actually use them. This change is essentially cosmetic in nature, and doesn't affect the operation of TIPC.

Removes a race condition that could cause TIPC's internal counter of the number of links it has to neighboring nodes to have the incorrect value if two independent threads of control simultaneously create new link endpoints connecting to two different nodes using two different bearers. Such under counting would result in TIPC failing to list the final link(s) in its response to a configuration request to list all of the node's links. The counter is now updated atomically to ensure that simultaneous increments do not interfere with each other. Thanks go to Peter Butler <pbutler@pt.com> for his assistance in diagnosing and fixing this problem.

Relocates the code that notifies users of node subscriptions so that it is adjacent to the rest of the routines that implement TIPC's node subscription capability. Renames the name table routine that is invoked by a node subscription to better reflect its purpose and to be consistent with other, similar name table routines. These changes are cosmetic in nature, and do not alter the behavior of TIPC. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <Allan.Stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

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.

Introduces a pair of helper routines that convert the network address for a TIPC node into the network address for its cluster or zone. This is a cosmetic change designed to avoid future errors caused by the incorrect use of address bitmasks, and does not alter the existing operation of TIPC.

Fixes a typo in the calculation of the network address of a node's own cluster when generating a response to the configuration command that lists all of the node's links. The correct mask value for a <Z.C.N> network address uses 1's for the 8-bit zone and 12-bit cluster parts and 0's for the 12-bit node part.

Enhances TIPC's socket receive routines to support iovec structures containing more than a single entry. This change leverages existing sk_buff routines to do most of the work; the only significant change to TIPC itself is that an sk_buff now records how much data has been already consumed as an numeric offset, rather than as a pointer to the first unread data byte.

To start doing these conversions, we need to add some temporary flow4_* macros which will eventually go away when all the protocol code paths are changed to work on AF specific flowi objects. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Now we have struct flowi4, flowi6, and flowidn for each address family. And struct flowi is just a union of them all. It might have been troublesome to convert flow_cache_uli_match() but as it turns out this function is completely unused and therefore can be simply removed. Signed-off-by: David S.

Create two sets of port member accessors, one set prefixed by fl4_* and the other prefixed by fl6_* This will let us to create AF optimal flow instances. It will work because every context in which we access the ports, we have to be fully aware of which AF the flowi is anyways. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The PFC configuration is not cleared until the device is reset. This has not been a problem because setting DCB attributes forced a hardware reset. Now that we no longer require this reset to occur PFC remains configured even after being disabled until the device is reset. This removes a goto in the PFC hardware set routines for 82598 and 82599 devices that was short circuiting the clear.
