* irm: Revise naming APIDimitri Staessens2020-03-151-3/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This revises the naming API to treat names (or reg_name in the source) as first-class citizens of the architecture. This is more in line with the way they are described in the article. Operations have been added to create/destroy names independently of registering. This was previously done only as part of register, and there was no way to delete a name from the IRMd. The create call now allows specifying a policy for load-balancing incoming flows for a name. The default is the new round-robin load-balancer, the previous behaviour is still available as a spillover load-balancer. The register calls will still create a name if it doesn't exist, with the default round-robin load-balancer. The tools now have a "name" section, so the format is now irm name <operation> <name> ...

* ouroboros: Rename service to ouroborosDimitri Staessens2020-03-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | The service was called "irmd", but it makes a bit more sense to give it the system name. Only the service name is changed, the irmd binary remains irmd. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>

* ipcpd: Revise UDP IPCPDimitri Staessens2019-03-181-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | The UDP IPCP now uses a fixed server UDP port (default 3435) for all communications. This allows passing firewalls more easily since only a single port needs to be opened. The client port can be fixed as well if needed (default random). It uses an internal eid, so the MTU of the UDP layer is reduced by 4 bytes, similar to the Ethernet IPCPs.

* lib: Simplify reg/unreg APIDimitri Staessens2018-03-221-4/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The reg/unreg API is simplified to registering and unregistering a single name with a single IPCP. The functionality associated with registering names was moved from the IRMd to the irm tool. The function to list IPCPs was simplified to return all IPCPs in the system with their basic properties needed for management. The above changes led to some needed changes in the irm tool and the management functions that were depending on the previous behaviour of list_ipcps. Command line functionality to list IPCPs in the system is also added to the irm tool. Some older code was refactored.

* ipcpd: Add IPCP over DIX EthernetDimitri Staessens2018-03-101-5/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds an IPC Process that uses DIX Ethernet with an Ethertype that is configurable at bootstrap. This allows parallel DIX layers over the same Ethernet network with different Ethertypes (and one LLC layer). It allows jumbo frames in the future, and should avoid the problems we have with some routers not handling LLC traffic very well. The destination endpoint ID is sent as a 16 bit integer, so the maximum payload is 1498 bytes in standard Ethernet, and 8998 bytes when Jumbo frames are used. The implementation is very similar to the Ethernet LLC IPCP, so it is implemented using preprocessor macros in the single source instead of duplicating code.

* ipcpd: Revise Data Transfer component0.10.0Dimitri Staessens2018-02-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | This makes the TTL non-optional and allows the maximum (initial) value of the TTL to be specified at bootstrap (the default is set to 60). The fd in the DT PCI is now called EID (Endpoint ID). The names "dif" and "ae" have been replaced by "layer" and "component" respectively in all sources.

* ipcpd: Use the term "layer" and deprecate "shim"Dimitri Staessens2017-12-191-41/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes the terminology to use layer instead of DIF and deprecate the word "shim" for the IPCPs that attach to Ethernet LLC and UDP .The terminology has not yet been changed in the variable names etc. This reflects the design choices in Ouroboros to make IPCPs pure resource allocators instead of also providing an "IPC service". The Ouroboros IPCPs that attach to Ethernet and UDP implement the allocator and are thus not really shims.

* lib, tools: Rename application process and instanceDimitri Staessens2017-12-021-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | This refactors ouroboros to use "program" instead of "application process" and "process" instead of "application process instance" to align with current naming in current Operating Systems courses instead of the ISO nomenclature adopted by RINA. This change permeates through the entire implementation. Also contains some minor other refactors.

| | | | | | | | | | The binding of the normal IPCP to its name is moved from the source code to the irm tool introducing the "autobind" option for the bootstrap and enroll commands.
