The ip/udp bearer can be configured in a point-to-point
mode by specifying both local and remote ip/hostname,
or it can be enabled in multicast mode, where links are
established to all tipc nodes that have joined the same
multicast group. The multicast IP address is generated
based on the TIPC network ID, but can be overridden by
using another multicast address as remote ip.Signed-off-by: Erik Hugne

As tipc reference table is statically allocated, its memory size
requested on stack initialization stage is quite big even if the
maximum port number is just restricted to 8191 currently, however,
the number already becomes insufficient in practice. But if the
maximum ports is allowed to its theory value - 2^32, its consumed
memory size will reach a ridiculously unacceptable value. Apart from
this, heavy tipc users spend a considerable amount of time in
tipc_sk_get() due to the read-lock on ref_table_lock.If tipc reference table is converted with generic rhashtable, above
mentioned both disadvantages would be resolved respectively: making
use of the new resizable hash table can avoid locking on the lookup;
smaller memory size is required at initial stage, for example, 256
hash bucket slots are requested at the beginning phase instead of
allocating the entire 8191 slots in old mode. The hash table will
grow if entries exceeds 75% of table size up to a total table size
of 1M, and it will automatically shrink if usage falls below 30%,
but the minimum table size is allowed down to 256.Also converts ref_table_lock to a separate mutex to protect hash table
mutations on write side. Lastly defers the release of the socket
reference using call_rcu() to allow using an RCU read-side protected
call to rhashtable_lookup().Signed-off-by: Ying Xue

Add InfiniBand media type based on the ethernet media type.
The only real difference is that in case of InfiniBand, we need the entire
20 bytes of space reserved for media addresses, so the TIPC media type ID is
not explicitly stored in the packet payload.Sample output of tipc-config:
# tipc-config -v -addr -netid -nt=all -p -m -b -n -ls

There used to be a time when TIPC had lots of Kconfig knobs the
end user could alter, but they have all been made automatic or
obsolete, with the exception of CONFIG_TIPC_PORTS. This
previously existing set of options was all hidden under the
TIPC_ADVANCED setting, which does not exist in any code, but
only in Kconfig scope.Having this now, just to hide the one remaining "advanced"
option no longer makes sense. Remove it. Also get rid of the
ifdeffery in the TIPC code that allowed for TIPC_PORTS to be
possibly undefined.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

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.

The link queue traces and packet level debug functions served
a purpose during early development, but are now redundant
since there are other, more capable tools available for
debugging at the packet level.The TIPC_DEBUG Kconfig option is removed since it does not
provide any extra debugging features anymore.This gets rid of a lot of tipc_printf usages, which will
make the pending cleanup work of that function easier.Signed-off-by: Erik Hugne

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.Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens

Completes the simplification of TIPC's debugging capabilities. By default
TIPC includes no debugging code, and any debugging code added by developers
that calls the dbg() and dbg_macros() is compiled out. If debugging support
is enabled, TIPC prints out some additional data about its internal state
when certain abnormal conditions occur, and any developer-added calls to the
TIPC debug macros are compiled in.Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens

This patch addresses a number of minor (mostly cosmetic) issues relating
to the configuration of TIPC, including the following:- Corrects range limits for maximum number of ports per node
- Adds missing range limits for size of log buffer
- Removes configuration setting relating to unsupported slave node capability
- Standardizes description and help text wording for configuration settings
- Removes unneeded blank spacesSigned-off-by: Allan Stephens
