tipc: compress out gratuitous extra carriage returns

2012-04-30T19:53:56+00:00

Some of the comment blocks are floating in limbo between two
functions, or between blocks of code.  Delete the extra line
feeds between any comment and its associated following block
of code, to be consistent with the majority of the rest of
the kernel.  Also delete trailing newlines at EOF and fix
a couple trivial typos in existing comments.

This is a 100% cosmetic change with no runtime impact.  We get
rid of over 500 lines of non-code, and being blank line deletes,
they won't even show up as noise in git blame.

tipc: Optimize termination of configuration service

2012-04-26T21:19:43+00:00

Termination no longer tests to see if the configuration service
port was successfully created or not. In the unlikely event that the
port was not created, attempting to delete the non-existent port is
detected gracefully and causes no harm.

tipc: Optimize re-initialization of configuration service

2012-04-26T21:19:07+00:00

Streamlines the job of re-initializing TIPC's configuration service
when a node's network address is first assigned. Rather than destroying
the configuration server port and then recreating it, TIPC now simply
withdraws the existing {0,<0.0.0>} name publication and creates a new
{0,} name publication that identifies the node's network address
to interested subscribers.

tipc: Ensure network address change doesn't impact configuration service

2012-04-19T19:46:50+00:00

Enhances command validation done by TIPC's configuration service so
that it works properly even if the node's network address is changed in
mid-operation. The default node address of <0.0.0> is now recognized as an
alias for "this node" even after a new network address has been assigned.

tipc: Eliminate support for tipc_mode global variable

2012-02-24T22:05:17+00:00

Removes all references to the global variable that records whether
TIPC is running in "single node" mode or "network" mode, since this
information can be easily deduced from the global variable that
records TIPC's network address. (i.e. a non-zero network address
means that TIPC is running in network mode.)

The changes made update most existing mode-based checks to use the
network address global variable. A few checks that are no longer
needed are removed entirely, along with any associated code lying on
non-executable control paths.

tipc: Eliminate obsolete support for "not running" mode

2012-02-24T22:05:17+00:00

Removes all references to TIPC's "not running" mode, since the
removal of support for the native API means that there is no longer
any way to interact with TIPC if it has not been initialized.

The changes made consist of removing mode-based checks that are no
longer needed, along with any associated code lying on non-executable
control paths.

tipc: nuke the delimit static inline function.

2012-02-24T22:05:14+00:00

This "shortform" is actually longer than typing out what it is really
trying to do, and just makes reading the code more difficult, so
lets simply shoot it in the head.

In the case of log.c - the comparison is on a u32, so we can drop the
check for < 0 at the same time.

tipc: Simplify enforcement of reserved name type prohibition

2012-02-24T22:05:14+00:00

Streamlines the logic that prevents an application from binding a
reserved TIPC name type to a port by moving the check to the code
that handles a socket bind() operation. This allows internal TIPC
subsystems to bind a reserved name without having to set an atomic
flag to gain permission to use such a name. (This simplification is
now possible due to the elimination of support for TIPC's native API.)

tipc: Revise comment justifying release of configuration spinlock

2011-12-27T16:33:40+00:00

Comment-only change to better explain why TIPC's configuration lock is
temporarily released while activating support for network interfaces,
and why the existing activation code doesn't require rework.

tipc: Correct misnamed references to neighbor discovery domain

2011-03-13T20:35:18+00:00

Renames items that are improperly labelled as "network scope" items
(which are represented by simple integer values) rather than "network
domain" items (which are represented by -type network addresses).
This change is purely cosmetic, and does not affect the operation of TIPC.
