2008-07-14tipc: Eliminate improper use of TIPC_OK error codeAllan Stephens1-9/+9
This patch corrects many places where TIPC routines indicated successful completion by returning TIPC_OK instead of 0. (The TIPC_OK symbol has the value 0, but it should only be used in contexts that deal with the error code field of a TIPC message header.)

2008-06-04tipc: Optimize message initialization routineAllan Stephens1-6/+6
This patch eliminates the rarely-used "error code" argument when initializing a TIPC message header, since the default value of zero is the desired result in most cases; the few exceptional cases now set the error code explicitly.

2008-06-04tipc: Prevent access of non-existent field in short message headerAllan Stephens1-1/+3
This patch eliminates a case where TIPC's link code could try reading a field that is not present in a short message header. (The random value obtained was not being used, but the read operation could result in an invalid memory access exception in extremely rare circumstances.)

2008-06-04tipc: Minor optimizations to received message processingAllan Stephens1-22/+5
This patch enhances TIPC's handler for incoming messages in two ways: - the trivial, single-use routine for processing non-sequenced messages has been merged into the main handler - the interface that received a message is now identified without having to access and/or modify the associated sk_buff Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-06-04tipc: Fix minor bugs in link session number handlingAllan Stephens1-5/+12
This patch introduces a new, out-of-range value to indicate that a link endpoint does not have an existing session established with its peer, eliminating the risk that the previously used "invalid session number" value (i.e. zero) might eventually be assigned as a valid session number and cause incorrect link behavior. The patch also introduces explicit bit masking when assigning a new link session number to ensure it does not exceed 16 bits.

2008-05-05tipc: Exclude debug-only print buffer code when not debuggingAllan Stephens1-4/+16
This patch modifies TIPC to only exclude debug-related print buffer routines when debugging capabilities are not required. It also fixes up some related #defines that exceed 80 characters.

2008-04-15[TIPC]: Enhance validation of format on incoming messagesAllan Stephens1-12/+77
This patch ensures that TIPC properly handles incoming messages that have incorrect or unexpected formats. Most significantly, it now ensures that each sl_buff has at least as much data as the message header indicates it should, and that the entire message header is stored contiguously; this prevents TIPC from accidentally accessing memory that is not part of the sk_buff.

2008-04-15[TIPC]: Force linearization of non-linear sk_buffsAllan Stephens1-0/+6
This patch allows TIPC to process incoming messages that are stored in a fragmented sk_buff, by forcing the linearization of any such messages it receives. Note: This is an interim solution to allow TIPC to operate with Ethernet devices that generate non-linear buffers (such as the gianfar driver), until such time as the rest of TIPC is enhanced to handle sk_buffs with multiple data areas.

2007-07-31[TIPC]: fix tipc_link_create error handlingFlorian Westphal1-13/+15
if printbuf allocation or tipc_node_attach_link() fails, invalid references to the link are left in the associated node and bearer structures. Fix by allocating printbuf early and moving timer initialization and the addition of the new link to the b_ptr->links list after tipc_node_attach_link() succeeded.

2007-07-10[TIPC]: Optimize stream send routine to avoid fragmentationAllan Stephens1-8/+8
This patch enhances TIPC's stream socket send routine so that it avoids transmitting data in chunks that require fragmentation and reassembly, thereby improving performance at both the sending and receiving ends of the connection. The "maximum packet size" hint that records MTU info allows the socket to decide how big a chunk it should send; in the event that the hint has become stale, fragmentation may still occur, but the data will be passed correctly and the hint will be updated in time for the following send. Note: The 66060 byte pseudo-MTU used for intra-node connections requires the send routine to perform an additional check to ensure it does not exceed TIPC"s limit of 66000 bytes of user data per chunk.

2006-10-18[TIPC]: Remove code bloat introduced by print buffer reworkAllan Stephens1-4/+4

2006-10-04[TIPC]: fix printk warningJeff Garzik1-2/+3
gcc spits out this warning: net/tipc/link.c: In function ‘link_retransmit_failure’: net/tipc/link.c:1669: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size More than a little bit ugly, storing integers in void*, but at least the code is correct, unlike some of the more crufty Linux kernel code found elsewhere. Rather than having two casts to massage the value into u32, it's easier just to have a single cast and use "%lu", since it's just a printk.

2006-07-03[TIPC] Fixed sk_buff panic caused by tipc_link_bundle_buf (REVISED)Allan Stephens1-0/+2
The recent change to direct inspection of bundle buffer tailroom did not account for the possiblity of unrequested tailroom added by skb_alloc(), thereby allowing a bundle to be created that exceeds the current link MTU. An additional check now ensures that bundling works correctly no matter if the bundle buffer is smaller, larger, or equal to the link MTU.

2006-06-29[TIPC]: Fixed skb_under_panic caused by tipc_link_bundle_bufAllan Stephens1-5/+6
Now determines tailroom of bundle buffer by directly inspection of buffer. Previously, buffer was assumed to have a max capacity equal to the link MTU, but the addition of link MTU negotiation means that the link MTU can increase after the bundle buffer is allocated.

2006-06-25[TIPC]: Links now validate destination node specified by incoming messages.Allan Stephens1-0/+5
This fix prevents link flopping and name table inconsistency problems arising when a node is assigned a different <Z.C.N> value than it used previously. (Changing the <Z.C.N> value causes other nodes to have two link endpoints sending to the same MAC address using two different destination <Z.C.N> values, requiring the receiving node to filter out the unwanted messages.)

2006-03-20[TIPC]: Remove inlines from *.cSam Ravnborg1-29/+29
With reference to latest discussions on linux-kernel with respect to inline here is a patch for tipc to remove all inlines as used in the .c files. See also chapter 14 in Documentation/CodingStyle. Before: text data bss dec hex filename 102990 5292 1752 110034 1add2 tipc.o Now: text data bss dec hex filename 101190 5292 1752 108234 1a6ca tipc.o This is a nice text size reduction which will improve icache usage. In some cases bigger (> 4 lines) functions where declared inline and used in many places, they are most probarly no longer inlined by gcc resulting in the size reduction. There are several one liners that no longer are declared inline, but gcc should inline these just fine without the inline hint. With this patch applied one warning is added about an unused static function - that was hidded by utilising inline before. The function in question were kept so this patch is solely a inline removal patch.
