* ipcpd: Revise internals of normal IPCPdimitri staessens2017-09-121-3/+8
| | | | | | | | This removes the RIB as a datastructure and CDAP as the protocol between IPCPs. CDAP, the rib and related sources are deprecated. The link-state protocol policy is udpated to use its own protocol based on a simple broadcast strategy along a tree. The neighbors struct is deprecated and moved to the library as a generic notifier component.
* tools: Add tool to connect IPCP componentsdimitri staessens2017-08-281-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | This enables user-written tools to instruct IPCPs to establish and tear down connections (a.k.a. adjacencies) between its internal components (Management and Data Transfer). For more info, do "irm ipcp connect" or "irm ipcp disconnect" on the command line. This commit exposes a deletion bug in the RIB where FSO's fail to unpack/parse. This will be fixed when the RIB is deprecated.
* ipcpd: Deprecate gam as autonomous componentdimitri staessens2017-08-281-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The graph adjacency manager has been deprecated in favor of providing an external interface into the connectivity manager so that adjacencies can be controlled from the command line, user scripts or user applications. The gam and its associated policies were removed from the normal IPCP and the IRM configuration tools. The "/members" part of the RIB was deprecated. Removal of the gam means that initial connectivity based on changes in the RIB can't be provided, so some changes were required throughout the normal IPCP. The enrollment procedure was revised to establish its own connectivity. First, it gets boot information from a peer by establishing a connection to the remote enrollment component and downloading the IPCP configuratoin. This is now done using its own protocol buffers message in anticipation of deprecation of the RIB and CDAP for communication within a DIF. After the boot information is downloaded, it establishes a data transfer flow for enrolling the directory (DHT). After the DHT has enrolled, it signals the peer to that enrollment is done, and the data transfer connection is torn down. Signaling connections is done via the nbs struct, which is now passed to the connmgr, which enables control of the connectivity graph from external sources.

* lib, ipcpd, irmd: Register hash instead of namedimitri staessens2017-04-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | All information passed over the IRMd/IPCP boundary for using IPC services (flow allocation, registration) is now hashed. This effectively fixes the shared namespace between DIFs and the IRMDs. This PR also fixes some API issues (adding const identifiers), shuffles the include headers a bit and some small bugs.
* Change email addresses to ugent.beSander Vrijders2017-03-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | Our mailserver was migrated from intec.ugent.be to the central ugent.be emailserver. This PR updates the header files to reflect this change as well. Some header files were also homogenized if the parameters within the functions were badly aligned.
* ipcpd: normal: Refactor application entities and add neighbors structSander Vrijders2017-03-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This refactors the different Application Entities of the normal IPCP. They all listen to and use the connection manager to establish new application connections. This commit also adds a neighbors struct to the normal IPCP. It contains neighbor structs that contain application connection. Notifiers can be registered in case a neighbor changes (added, removed, QoS changed). The flow manager has an instance of this neighbors struct and listens to these events to update its flow set. The routing component also listens to these events so that it can update the FSDB if needed. The flow manager now also creates the PFF instances and the routing instances per QoS cube. The RIB manager also uses this an instance of the neighbors struct and listens to neighbor events as well.
* ipcpd: normal: Add connection managerSander Vrijders2017-03-021-0/+57
This adds the connection manager which allows the different AEs of the normal IPCP to register with it. An AE can then use the connection manager to allocate a flow to a neighbor, or to wait for a new connection from a neighbor.
