* lib, ipcp: Revise fast path and flow interfacesdimitri staessens2016-10-041-39/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | IPCPs can now use ap_init() to initialize the memory. All flows are accessed using flow descriptors, this greatly simplifies IPCP development. Reverts the fast path to a single ap_rbuff per process. Splits lib/ipcp into irmd/ipcp and lib/ipcp-dev. Adds a lib/shim-dev holding tailored functions for shims. Moves the buffer_t to utils.h. Fixes the shim-eth-llc length field. Removes the flow from shared.h. Fixes #4 Fixes #5
* ipcpd: normal: Establish N-1 management flowsSander Vrijders2016-07-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | This adds the intial implementation of establishing management N-1 flows between normal IPCPs. On calling fmgr_mgmt_flow, a management flow will be setup to a certain destination IPCP. After flow allocation, the fd is handed to the RIB manager. The flow manager also listens for incoming flow requests. In case they are management flows, they are handed to the RIB manager, otherwise to the FRCT.
* lib: robust locking in shared memory and crash recoverydimitri staessens2016-07-021-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This PR enhances the shared memory providing recovery if a process crashes. It adds a SHM_DU_TIMEOUT_MICROS variable, setting an expiration time for SDU's when shared memory is full. If an application doesn't read a blocking SDU within this time, the shared memory will be cleansed of all SDU's for this application and the application's rbuff will be cleared. Some refactoring of the API's. Fixed wrong pthread checks in IRMd. Fixes #13 Fixes #14
* lib: Add errnos specific for OuroborosSander Vrijders2016-06-221-8/+1
| | | | | | | This adds error numbers specificly for Ouroboros. It also refactors some of the header files that are installed. Fixes #2
* lib, ipcpd, irmd: Add QoS cube definitionSander Vrijders2016-05-141-24/+7
| | | | | | | | | | This adds the QoS cube definition, which is an enum to select which QoS is needed in the IPCP. An application has to use the qos_spec in qos.h to define what it needs. The IRMd will map this unto a qos cube definition. Some headers are now also no longer installed on the system, since they are only to be used within the irmd and ipcps.
* lib: changed port_id to intdimitri staessens2016-05-081-2/+2
| | | | | returning -1 as uint32_t leads to bugs. also changed types in GPB to sint to use zigzag encoding.
* irmd: flow allocation and fast pathdimitri staessens2016-05-071-7/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit has a first implementation of flow allocation (the "slow path") and read/write (the "fast path") for ouroboros. It provides basic but unstable communications over the shared memory. It required a lot of changes all over the stack, and fixes a number of previously undetected issues. This PR still need heavy revision regarding data model, locking and cleanup. lib/dev: modifications to the API. It now uses an ap_init() call to set the AP name and sets the Instance ID to the pid of the process. It also binds the AP to the shared memory and creates tables for mappings in the fast path. A call to ap_fini() releases the resources. lib/shm_ap_rbuff: added ring buffer for data exchange between processes in the fast path. It passes an index in the shm_du_map. lib/shm_du_map: rewrote API to work with calls from dev.c. Garbage collector added. Tests updated to new API. ipcpd/ipcp-data: removed everything related to flows, as these are universal for all ap's and kept in ap_data (dev.c), or similar structs for shim ipcps. shim-udp: added flow allocator and read/write functions and shm elements. irmd: revised data model and structures necessary for flow allocation. tools: echo updated to new dev.h API. messaging system was updated to comply with new flow allocation messages. All exchanges use pid and port_id to bootstrap the fast path.
