97ede29e80 tipc: convert name table read-write lock to RCU
Convert tipc name table read-write lock to RCU. After this change,
a new spin lock is used to protect name table on write side while
RCU is applied on read side.

993bfe5daf tipc: make name table allocated dynamically
Name table locking policy is going to be adjusted from read-write
lock protection to RCU lock protection in the future commits. But
its essential precondition is to convert the allocation way of name
table from static to dynamic mode.

1b61e70ad1 tipc: remove size variable from publ_list struct
The size variable is introduced in publ_list struct to help us exactly
calculate SKB buffer sizes needed by publications when all publications
in name table are delivered in bulk in named_distribute(). But if
publication SKB buffer size is assumed to MTU, the size variable in
publ_list struct can be completely eliminated at the cost of wasting
a bit memory space for last SKB.

a8f48af587 tipc: remove node subscription infrastructure
The node subscribe infrastructure represents a virtual base class, so
its users, such as struct tipc_port and struct publication, can derive
its implemented functionalities. However, after the removal of struct
tipc_port, struct publication is left as its only single user now. So
defining an abstract infrastructure for one user becomes no longer
reasonable. If corresponding new functions associated with the
infrastructure are moved to name_table.c file, the node subscription
infrastructure can be removed as well.

a5325ae5b8 tipc: add name distributor resiliency queue
TIPC name table updates are distributed asynchronously in a cluster,
entailing a risk of certain race conditions. E.g., if two nodes
simultaneously issue conflicting (overlapping) publications, this may
not be detected until both publications have reached a third node, in
which case one of the publications will be silently dropped on that
node. Hence, we end up with an inconsistent name table.

In most cases this conflict is just a temporary race, e.g., one
node is issuing a publication under the assumption that a previous,
conflicting, publication has already been withdrawn by the other node.
However, because of the (rtt related) distributed update delay, this
may not yet hold true on all nodes. The symptom of this failure is a
syslog message: "tipc: Cannot publish {%u,%u,%u}, overlap error".

In this commit we add a resiliency queue at the receiving end of
the name table distributor. When insertion of an arriving publication
fails, we retain it in this queue for a short amount of time, assuming
that another update will arrive very soon and clear the conflict. If so
happens, we insert the publication, otherwise we drop it.

The (configurable) retention value defaults to 2000 ms. Knowing from
experience that the situation described above is extremely rare, there
is no risk that the queue will accumulate any large number of items.

dbdf6d24ad tipc: make name table distributor use new send function
In a previous commit series ("tipc: new unicast transmission code")
we introduced a new message sending function, tipc_link_xmit2(),
and moved the unicast data users over to use that function. We now
let the internal name table distributor do the same.

The interaction between the name distributor and the node/link
layer also becomes significantly simpler, so we can eliminate
the function tipc_link_names_xmit().

Although we obtain node lock with tipc_node_lock() in most time, there
are still places where we directly use native spin lock interface
to grab node lock. But as we will do more jobs in the future when node
lock is released, we should ensure that tipc_node_lock() is always
called when node lock is taken.

eab8c04573 tipc: move the delivery of named messages out of nametbl lock
Commit a89778d8ba ("tipc: add support
for link state subscriptions") introduced below possible deadlock
scenario:

       CPU0                          CPU1
T0:   tipc_publish()                 link_timeout()
T1:   tipc_nametbl_publish()         [grab node lock]*
T2:   [grab nametbl write lock]*     link_state_event()
T3:   named_cluster_distribute()     link_activate()
T4:   [grab node lock]*              tipc_node_link_up()
T5:                                  tipc_nametbl_publish()
T6:                                  [grab nametble write lock]*

The opposite order of holding nametbl write lock and node lock on
above two different paths may result in a deadlock. If we move the
the delivery of named messages via link out of name nametbl lock,
the reverse order of holding locks will be eliminated, as a result,
the deadlock will be killed as well.

7216cd949c tipc: purge tipc_net_lock lock
Now tipc routing hierarchy comprises the structures 'node', 'link'and
'bearer'. The whole hierarchy is protected by a big read/write lock,
tipc_net_lock, to ensure that nothing is added or removed while code
is accessing any of these structures. Obviously the locking policy
makes node, link and bearer components closely bound together so that
their relationship becomes unnecessarily complex. In the worst case,
such locking policy not only has a negative influence on performance,
but also it's prone to lead to deadlock occasionally.

In order o decouple the complex relationship between bearer and node
as well as link, the locking policy is adjusted as follows:

- Bearer level
  RTNL lock is used on update side, and RCU is used on read side.
  Meanwhile, all bearer instances including broadcast bearer are
  saved into bearer_list array.

- Node and link level
  All node instances are saved into two tipc_node_list and node_htable
  lists. The two lists are protected by node_list_lock on write side,
  and they are guarded with RCU lock on read side. All members in node
  structure including link instances are protected by node spin lock.

- The relationship between bearer and node
  When link accesses bearer, it first needs to find the bearer with
  its bearer identity from the bearer_list array. When bearer accesses
  node, it can iterate the node_htable hash list with the node
  address to find the corresponding node.

In the new locking policy, every component has its private locking
solution and the relationship between bearer and node is very simple,
that is, they can find each other with node address or bearer identity
from node_htable hash list or bearer_list array.

Until now above all changes have been done, so tipc_net_lock can be
removed safely.

78dfb789b6 tipc: acquire necessary locks in named_cluster_distribute routine
The 'tipc_node_list' is guarded by tipc_net_lock and 'links' array
defined in 'tipc_node' structure is protected by node lock as well.
Without acquiring the two locks in named_cluster_distribute() a fatal
oops may happen in case that a destroyed link might be got and then
accessed. Therefore, above mentioned two locks must be held in
named_cluster_distribute() to prevent the issue from happening
accidentally.

As 'links' array in node struct must be protected by node lock,
we have to move the code of selecting an active link from
tipc_link_xmit() to named_cluster_distribute() and then call
__tipc_link_xmit() with the selected link to deliver name messages.

Ensures that node-scope name publications that exist prior to the

with that address when it is assigned. TIPC's node-scope publications
are now tracked using a publications list like the lists used for
cluster-scope and zone-scope publications so they can be easily updated
when required.

The inclusion of node scope name publications in a conventional publication
list means that they must now also be withdrawn, just like cluster and zone
scope publications are currently withdrawn.  So some conditional tests on
scope ==/!= TIPC_NODE_SCOPE are inserted/removed accordingly.

672d99e19a tipc: Convert node object array to a hash table
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.

d1bcb11544 tipc: Split up unified structure of network-related variables
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.

f137917332 tipc: Cosmetic changes to node subscription code
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.

431697eb60 tipc: Prevent null pointer error when removing a node subscription
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.

seem like sensible targets for un-inlining.  Prior to doing
that, this adds the tipc_ prefix to the functions, so that
in the event of a panic dump or similar, the subsystem from
