ipcpd: Use the term "layer" and deprecate "shim"

2017-12-19T09:27:02+00:00

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. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

ipcpd: normal: Make PFF policy-based

2017-09-20T12:16:34+00:00

This turns the PDU Forwarding Function of the IPCP into a policy. For now only the simple PFF policy is available.

ipcpd: Revise internals of normal IPCP

2017-09-12T14:33:26+00:00

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.

ipcpd: Deprecate gam as autonomous component

2017-08-28T13:24:16+00:00

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.

build: Revise the build system

2017-08-21T08:25:19+00:00

This revises the build system to have configuration per system component. System settings can now be set using cmake. The standard compliance defines were removed from configuration header and are set in the sources where needed. Also some small code refactors, such as moving the data for shims out of the ipcp structure to the respective shims were performed.

ipcpd: Add DHT as directory in normal IPCP

2017-07-18T11:03:05+00:00

This implements a Distributed Hash Table (DHT) based on the Kademlia protocol, with default parameters set as used in the BitTorrent Mainline DHT. This initial implementation is almost feature complete, except for some things to be done after a testing period: caching and stale peer bumping, and setting the expiration timeout via the IRM tool.

Change email addresses to ugent.be

2017-03-03T14:31:42+00:00

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: Change address authority policy

2017-02-21T13:45:04+00:00

This changes the address authority to follow a similar approach to that of the other policies. No function pointers are passed to its user anymore.
