tipc: Remove obsolete native API files and exports

2010-12-02T21:34:01+00:00

As part of the removal of TIPC's native API support it is no longer
necessary for TIPC to export symbols for routines that can be called
by kernel-based applications, nor for it to have header files that
kernel-based applications can include to access the declarations for
those routines. This commit eliminates the exporting of symbols by
TIPC and migrates the contents of each obsolete native API include
file into its corresponding non-native API equivalent.

The code which was migrated in this commit was migrated intact, in
that there are no technical changes combined with the relocation.

tipc: cleanup function namespace

2010-10-16T18:13:24+00:00

Do some cleanups of TIPC based on make namespacecheck
  1. Don't export unused symbols
  2. Eliminate dead code
  3. Make functions and variables local
  4. Rename buf_acquire to tipc_buf_acquire since it is used in several files

Compile tested only.
This make break out of tree kernel modules that depend on TIPC routines.

tipc: Update commenting in TIPC API

2010-05-13T06:02:23+00:00

Eliminate comments in TIPC's main API files that are either obsolete,
incorrect, misleading, or unhelpful.  It also adds in one new comment.

tipc: Remove unneeded parameter to tipc_createport_raw()

2008-07-15T05:42:19+00:00

This patch eliminates an unneeded parameter when creating a low-level
TIPC port object.  Instead of returning both the pointer to the port
structure and the port's reference ID, it now returns only the pointer
since the port structure contains the reference ID as one of its fields.

tipc: Fix race condition when creating socket or native port

2008-05-12T22:42:28+00:00

This patch eliminates the (very remote) chance of a crash resulting
from a partially initialized socket or native port unexpectedly
receiving a message.  Now, during the creation of a socket or native
port, the underlying generic port's lock is not released until all
initialization required to handle incoming messages has been done.

[TIPC]: Overhaul of socket locking logic

2008-04-15T07:22:02+00:00

This patch modifies TIPC's socket code to follow the same approach
used by other protocols.  This change eliminates the need for a
mutex in the TIPC-specific portion of the socket protocol data
structure -- in its place, the standard Linux socket backlog queue
and associated locking routines are utilized.  These changes fix
a long-standing receive queue bug on SMP systems, and also enable
individual read and write threads to utilize a socket without
unnecessarily interfering with each other.

[TIPC]: Removal of message header option code

2008-03-06T23:05:07+00:00

This patch removes code associated with optional, user-specified
fields of the TIPC message header.  Such fields were never
utilized by TIPC, and have now been removed from the protocol
specification.
