* ipcpd: Add congestion avoidance policiesDimitri Staessens2020-12-021-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds congestion avoidance policies to the unicast IPCP. The default policy is a multi-bit explicit congestion avoidance algorithm based on data-center TCP congestion avoidance (DCTCP) to relay information about the maximum queue depth that packets experienced to the receiver. There's also a "nop" policy to disable congestion avoidance for testing and benchmarking purposes. The (initial) API for congestion avoidance policies is: void * (* ctx_create)(void); void (* ctx_destroy)(void * ctx); These calls create / and or destroy a context for congestion control for a specific flow. Thread-safety of the context is the responsability of the flow allocator (operations on the ctx should be performed under a lock). ca_wnd_t (* ctx_update_snd)(void * ctx, size_t len); This is the sender call to update the context, and should be called for every packet that is sent on the flow. The len parameter in this API is the packet length, which allows calculating the bandwidth. It returns an opaque union type that is used for the call to check/wait if the congestion window is open or closed (and allowing to release locks before waiting). bool (* ctx_update_rcv)(void * ctx, size_t len, uint8_t ecn, uint16_t * ece); This is the call to update the flow congestion context on the receiver side. It should be called for every received packet. It gets the ecn value from the packet and its length, and returns the ECE (explicit congestion experienced) value to be sent to the sender in case of congestion. The boolean returned signals whether or not a congestion update needs to be sent. void (* ctx_update_ece)(void * ctx, uint16_t ece); This is the call for the sending side top update the context when it receives an ECE update from the receiver. void (* wnd_wait)(ca_wnd_t wnd); This is a (blocking) call that waits for the congestion window to clear. It should be stateless (to avoid waiting under locks). This may change later on if passing the context is needed for different algorithms. uint8_t (* calc_ecn)(int fd, size_t len); This is the call that intermediate IPCPs(routers) should use to update the ECN field on passing packets. The multi-bit ECN policy bases the value for the ECN field on the depth of the rbuff queue packets will be sent on. I created another call to grab the queue depth as fccntl is write-locking the application. We can further optimize this to avoid most locking on the rbuff.

* ipcpd: Configure PFF from routing policyDimitri Staessens2020-02-161-7/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | The Packet Forwarding Function (PFF) was user-configurable using the irm tool. However, this isn't really wanted since the PFF is dictated by the routing algorithm. This moves the responsability for selecting the correct PFF from the network admin to the unicast IPCP implementation. Each routing policy now has to specify which PFF it will use.

| | | | | | | | This completes the renaming of the normal IPCP to the unicast IPCP in the sources, to get everything consistent with the documentation. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>
* ipcpd: Revise UDP IPCPDimitri Staessens2019-03-181-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* ipcpd: Add IPCP over DIX EthernetDimitri Staessens2018-03-101-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: Fix double definition of ipcp configDimitri Staessens2018-02-231-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | The import of the IPCP config protobuf message in the enrollment message caused a double definition. The enroll.proto file is deprecated and the definition of the enrollment message is moved to the library to avoid this.

* ipcpd: Revise Data Transfer component0.10.0Dimitri Staessens2018-02-131-14/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | 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 Staessens2017-12-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* ipcpd: Deprecate gam as autonomous componentdimitri staessens2017-08-281-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 staessens2017-04-131-0/+47
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.
