tipc: Introduce Communcation Group feature

With this commit series we introduce a 'Group Communication' feature in
order to resolve the datagram and multicast flow control problem. This
new feature makes it possible for a user to instantiate multiple private
virtual brokerless message buses by just creating and joining member
sockets.

The main features are as follows:
---------------------------------
- Sockets can join a group via a new setsockopt() call TIPC_GROUP_JOIN.
  If it is the first socket of the group this implies creation of the
  group. This call takes four parameters: 'type' serves as group
  identifier, 'instance' serves as member identifier, and 'scope'
  indicates the visibility of the group (node/cluster/zone). Finally,
  'flags' indicates different options for the socket joining the group.
  For the time being, there are only two such flags: 1) 'LOOPBACK'
  indicates if the creator of the socket wants to receive a copy of
  broadcast or multicast messages it sends to the group, 2) EVENTS
  indicates if it wants to receive membership (JOINED/LEFT) events for
  the other members of the group.

- Groups are closed, i.e., sockets which have not joined a group will
  not be able to send messages to or receive messages from members of
  the group, and vice versa. A socket can only be member of one group
  at a time.

- There are four transmission modes.
  1: Unicast. The sender transmits a message using the port identity
     (node:port tuple) of the receiving socket.
  2: Anycast. The sender transmits a message using a port name (type:
     instance:scope) of one of the receiving sockets. If more than
     one member socket matches the given address a destination is
     selected according to a round-robin algorithm, but also considering
     the destination load (advertised window size) as an additional
     criteria.
  3: Multicast. The sender transmits a message using a port name
     (type:instance:scope) of one or more of the receiving sockets.
     All sockets in the group matching the given address will receive
     a copy of the message.
  4: Broadcast. The sender transmits a message using the primtive
     send(). All members of the group, irrespective of their member
     identity (instance) number receive a copy of the message.

- TIPC broadcast is used for carrying messages in mode 3 or 4 when
  this is deemed more efficient, i.e., depending on number of actual
  destinations.

- All transmission modes are flow controlled, so that messages never
  are dropped or rejected, just like we are used to from connection
  oriented communication. A special algorithm guarantees that this is
  true even for multipoint-to-point communication, i.e., at occasions
  where many source sockets may decide to send simultaneously towards
  the same  destination socket.

- Sequence order is always guaranteed, even between the different
  transmission modes.

- Member join/leave events are received in all other member sockets
  in guaranteed order. I.e., a 'JOINED' (an empty message with the OOB
  bit set) will always be received before the first data message from
  a new member, and a 'LEAVE' (like 'JOINED', but with EOR bit set) will
  always arrive after the last data message from a leaving member.

-----
v2: Reordered variable declarations in descending length order, as per
    feedback from David Miller. This was done as far as permitted by the
    the initialization order.

      tipc: add multipoint-to-point flow control · 04d7b574
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      We already have point-to-multipoint flow control within a group. But
we even need the opposite; -a scheme which can handle that potentially
hundreds of sources may try to send messages to the same destination
simultaneously without causing buffer overflow at the recipient. This
commit adds such a mechanism.

The algorithm works as follows:

- When a member detects a new, joining member, it initially set its
  state to JOINED and advertises a minimum window to the new member.
  This window is chosen so that the new member can send exactly one
  maximum sized message, or several smaller ones, to the recipient
  before it must stop and wait for an additional advertisement. This
  minimum window ADV_IDLE is set to 65 1kB blocks.

- When a member receives the first data message from a JOINED member,
  it changes the state of the latter to ACTIVE, and advertises a larger
  window ADV_ACTIVE = 12 x ADV_IDLE blocks to the sender, so it can
  continue sending with minimal disturbances to the data flow.

- The active members are kept in a dedicated linked list. Each time a
  message is received from an active member, it will be moved to the
  tail of that list. This way, we keep a record of which members have
  been most (tail) and least (head) recently active.

- There is a maximum number (16) of permitted simultaneous active
  senders per receiver. When this limit is reached, the receiver will
  not advertise anything immediately to a new sender, but instead put
  it in a PENDING state, and add it to a corresponding queue. At the
  same time, it will pick the least recently active member, send it an
  advertisement RECLAIM message, and set this member to state
  RECLAIMING.

- The reclaimee member has to respond with a REMIT message, meaning that
  it goes back to a send window of ADV_IDLE, and returns its unused
  advertised blocks beyond that value to the reclaiming member.

- When the reclaiming member receives the REMIT message, it unlinks
  the reclaimee from its active list, resets its state to JOINED, and
  notes that it is now back at ADV_IDLE advertised blocks to that
  member. If there are still unread data messages sent out by
  reclaimee before the REMIT, the member goes into an intermediate
  state REMITTED, where it stays until the said messages have been
  consumed.

- The returned advertised blocks can now be re-advertised to the
  pending member, which is now set to state ACTIVE and added to
  the active member list.

- To be proactive, i.e., to minimize the risk that any member will
  end up in the pending queue, we start reclaiming resources already
  when the number of active members exceeds 3/4 of the permitted
  maximum.

      tipc: guarantee delivery of last broadcast before DOWN event · a3bada70
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      The following scenario is possible:
- A user sends a broadcast message, and thereafter immediately leaves
  the group.
- The LEAVE message, following a different path than the broadcast,
  arrives ahead of the broadcast, and the sending member is removed
  from the receiver's list.
- The broadcast message arrives, but is dropped because the sender
  now is unknown to the receipient.

We fix this by sequence numbering membership events, just like ordinary
unicast messages. Currently, when a JOIN is sent to a peer, it contains
a synchronization point, - the sequence number of the next sent
broadcast, in order to give the receiver a start synchronization point.
We now let even LEAVE messages contain such an "end synchronization"
point, so that the recipient can delay the removal of the sending member
until it knows that all messages have been received.

The received synchronization points are added as sequence numbers to the
generated membership events, making it possible to handle them almost
the same way as regular unicasts in the receiving filter function. In
particular, a DOWN event with a too high sequence number will be kept
in the reordering queue until the missing broadcast(s) arrive and have
been delivered.

      tipc: guarantee delivery of UP event before first broadcast · 399574d4
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      The following scenario is possible:
- A user joins a group, and immediately sends out a broadcast message
  to its members.
- The broadcast message, following a different data path than the
  initial JOIN message sent out during the joining procedure, arrives
  to a receiver before the latter..
- The receiver drops the message, since it is not ready to accept any
  messages until the JOIN has arrived.

We avoid this by treating group protocol JOIN messages like unicast
messages.
- We let them pass through the recipient's multicast input queue, just
  like ordinary unicasts.
- We force the first following broadacst to be sent as replicated
  unicast and being acknowledged by the recipient before accepting
  any more broadcast transmissions.

      tipc: guarantee that group broadcast doesn't bypass group unicast · 2f487712
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      We need a mechanism guaranteeing that group unicasts sent out from a
socket are not bypassed by later sent broadcasts from the same socket.
We do this as follows:

- Each time a unicast is sent, we set a the broadcast method for the
  socket to "replicast" and "mandatory". This forces the first
  subsequent broadcast message to follow the same network and data path
  as the preceding unicast to a destination, hence preventing it from
  overtaking the latter.

- In order to make the 'same data path' statement above true, we let
  group unicasts pass through the multicast link input queue, instead
  of as previously through the unicast link input queue.

- In the first broadcast following a unicast, we set a new header flag,
  requiring all recipients to immediately acknowledge its reception.

- During the period before all the expected acknowledges are received,
  the socket refuses to accept any more broadcast attempts, i.e., by
  blocking or returning EAGAIN. This period should typically not be
  longer than a few microseconds.

- When all acknowledges have been received, the sending socket will
  open up for subsequent broadcasts, this time giving the link layer
  freedom to itself select the best transmission method.

- The forced and/or abrupt transmission method changes described above
  may lead to broadcasts arriving out of order to the recipients. We
  remedy this by introducing code that checks and if necessary
  re-orders such messages at the receiving end.

      tipc: guarantee group unicast doesn't bypass group broadcast · b87a5ea3
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      Group unicast messages don't follow the same path as broadcast messages,
and there is a high risk that unicasts sent from a socket might bypass
previously sent broadcasts from the same socket.

We fix this by letting all unicast messages carry the sequence number of
the next sent broadcast from the same node, but without updating this
number at the receiver. This way, a receiver can check and if necessary
re-order such messages before they are added to the socket receive buffer.

      tipc: introduce group multicast messaging · 5b8dddb6
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      The previously introduced message transport to all group members is
based on the tipc multicast service, but is logically a broadcast
service within the group, and that is what we call it.

We now add functionality for sending messages to all group members
having a certain identity. Correspondingly, we call this feature 'group
multicast'. The service is using unicast when only one destination is
found, otherwise it will use the bearer broadcast service to transfer
the messages. In the latter case, the receiving members filter arriving
messages by looking at the intended destination instance. If there is
no match, the message will be dropped, while still being considered
received and read as seen by the flow control mechanism.

      tipc: introduce group anycast messaging · ee106d7f
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      In this commit, we make it possible to send connectionless unicast
messages to any member corresponding to the given member identity,
when there is more than one such member. The sender must use a
TIPC_ADDR_NAME address to achieve this effect.

We also perform load balancing between the destinations, i.e., we
primarily select one which has advertised sufficient send window
to not cause a block/EAGAIN delay, if any. This mechanism is
overlayed on the always present round-robin selection.

Anycast messages are subject to the same start synchronization
and flow control mechanism as group broadcast messages.

      We now make it possible to send connectionless unicast messages

either a direct port address, aka port identity, or an indirect port
name to be looked up.

This type of messages are subject to the same start synchronization
and flow control mechanism as group broadcast messages.

      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      We introduce an end-to-end flow control mechanism for group broadcast
messages. This ensures that no messages are ever lost because of
destination receive buffer overflow, with minimal impact on performance.
For now, the algorithm is based on the assumption that there is only one
active transmitter at any moment in time.

      tipc: receive group membership events via member socket · ae236fb2
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      Like with any other service, group members' availability can be
subscribed for by connecting to be topology server. However, because
the events arrive via a different socket than the member socket, there
is a real risk that membership events my arrive out of synch with the
actual JOIN/LEAVE action. I.e., it is possible to receive the first
messages from a new member before the corresponding JOIN event arrives,
just as it is possible to receive the last messages from a leaving
member after the LEAVE event has already been received.

Since each member socket is internally also subscribing for membership
events, we now fix this problem by passing those events on to the user
via the member socket. We leverage the already present member synch-
ronization protocol to guarantee correct message/event order. An event
is delivered to the user as an empty message where the two source
addresses identify the new/lost member. Furthermore, we set the MSG_OOB
bit in the message flags to mark it as an event. If the event is an
indication about a member loss we also set the MSG_EOR bit, so it can
be distinguished from a member addition event.

      tipc: add second source address to recvmsg()/recvfrom() · 31c82a2d
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      With group communication, it becomes important for a message receiver to
identify not only from which socket (identfied by a node:port tuple) the
message was sent, but also the logical identity (type:instance) of the
sending member.

We fix this by adding a second instance of struct sockaddr_tipc to the
source address area when a message is read. The extra address struct
is filled in with data found in the received message header (type,) and
in the local member representation struct (instance.)

      tipc: introduce communication groups · 75da2163
      由 Jon Maloy 提交于 
      As a preparation for introducing flow control for multicast and datagram
messaging we need a more strictly defined framework than we have now. A
socket must be able keep track of exactly how many and which other
sockets it is allowed to communicate with at any moment, and keep the
necessary state for those.

We therefore introduce a new concept we have named Communication Group.
Sockets can join a group via a new setsockopt() call TIPC_GROUP_JOIN.
The call takes four parameters: 'type' serves as group identifier,
'instance' serves as an logical member identifier, and 'scope' indicates
the visibility of the group (node/cluster/zone). Finally, 'flags' makes
it possible to set certain properties for the member. For now, there is
only one flag, indicating if the creator of the socket wants to receive
a copy of broadcast or multicast messages it is sending via the socket,
and if wants to be eligible as destination for its own anycasts.

A group is closed, i.e., sockets which have not joined a group will
not be able to send messages to or receive messages from members of
the group, and vice versa.

Any member of a group can send multicast ('group broadcast') messages
to all group members, optionally including itself, using the primitive
send(). The messages are received via the recvmsg() primitive. A socket
can only be member of one group at a time.
