Allan Stephens 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.

Allan Stephens f831c963b5 tipc: Eliminate configuration for maximum number of cluster nodes
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.

Allan Stephens 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.

Allan Stephens 9df3b7eb6e tipc: Fix problem with missing link in "tipc-config -l" output
Removes a race condition that could cause TIPC's internal counter
of the number of links it has to neighboring nodes to have the
incorrect value if two independent threads of control simultaneously
create new link endpoints connecting to two different nodes using two
different bearers. Such under counting would result in TIPC failing to
list the final link(s) in its response to a configuration request to
list all of the node's links. The counter is now updated atomically
to ensure that simultaneous increments do not interfere with each
other.

Thanks go to Peter Butler <pbutler@pt.com> for his assistance in
diagnosing and fixing this problem.

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

Allan Stephens 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.

Allan Stephens cb7ce91448 tipc: Fix port counter handling to correct congestion control
Modifies TIPC's congestion control between a connected port and its
peer so that it works as documented. The following changes have been
made:

1) The counter of the number of messages sent by a port now starts
   at zero, rather than one. This prevents the port from reporting port
   congestion one message earlier than it was supposed to.

2) The counter of the number of messages sent by a port is now
   incremented only if a non-empty message is sent successfully.
   This prevents the port from becoming permanently congested if
   too many send attempts are unsuccessful because of congestion
   (or other reasons). It also removes the risk that empty hand-
   shaking messages used during connection setup might cause the
   port to report congestion earlier than it was supposed to.

3) The counter of the number of unacknowledged messages received by
   a port controlled by an internal TIPC service is now incremented
   only if the message is non-empty, in order to be consistent with
   the aforementioned changes.

Allan Stephens 08c80e9a03 tipc: Remove prototype code for supporting slave nodes
Simplifies routines and data structures that were intended to allow
TIPC to support slave nodes (i.e. nodes that did not have links to
all of the other nodes in its cluster, forcing TIPC to route messages
that it could not deliver directly through a non-slave node).

Currently, TIPC supports only networks containing non-slave nodes,
so this code is unnecessary.

Note: The latest edition of the TIPC 2.0 Specification has eliminated
the concept of slave nodes entirely.

Allan Stephens 51f98a8d70 tipc: Remove prototype code for supporting multiple zones
Eliminates routines, data structures, and files that were intended
to allows TIPC to support a network containing multiple zones.
Currently, TIPC supports only networks consisting of a single cluster
within a single zone, so this code is unnecessary.

Allan Stephens b924dcf003 tipc: Delete tipc_ownidentity()
Moves the content of the native API routine tipc_ownidentity() into the
sole routine that calls it, since it can no longer be called in isolation.

Allan Stephens 12bae479ee tipc: Eliminate obsolete native API forwarding routines
Moves the content of each native API message forwarding routine
into the sole routine that calls it, since the forwarding routines
no longer be called in isolation. Also removes code in each routine
that altered the outgoing message's importance level since this is
now no longer possible.

The previous function mapping (parent function, and child API) was
as follows:

   tipc_send2name
       \--tipc_forward2name

   tipc_send2port
       \--tipc_forward2port

   tipc_send_buf2port
       \--tipc_forward_buf2port

After this commit, the children don't exist and their functionality
is completely in the respective parent.
