irm: Revise naming API

2020-03-15T13:20:38Z

This revises the naming API to treat names (or reg_name in the source) as first-class citizens of the architecture. This is more in line with the way they are described in the article. Operations have been added to create/destroy names independently of registering. This was previously done only as part of register, and there was no way to delete a name from the IRMd. The create call now allows specifying a policy for load-balancing incoming flows for a name. The default is the new round-robin load-balancer, the previous behaviour is still available as a spillover load-balancer. The register calls will still create a name if it doesn't exist, with the default round-robin load-balancer. The tools now have a "name" section, so the format is now irm name ...

ipcpd: Configure PFF from routing policy

2020-02-16T17:21:41Z

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.

build: Refactor normal to unicast

2019-07-29T17:36:45Z

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 Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

ipcpd: Revise UDP IPCP

2019-03-18T10:09:31Z

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 broadcast IPCP

2018-10-24T09:58:49Z

This adds a broadcast IPCP that allows us to easily create multicast applications. The broadcast IPCP accepts flows for ".mc". A tool, obc (Ouroboros broadcast), is added that sends and reads a message to a broadcast layer. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

tools: Specify QoS cube for data transfer flows

2018-10-19T10:24:23Z

The ipcp connect command can now set a specific qos cube for data transfer flows. For management flows, the tool ignores this and defaults to raw until data flows are stable enough. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Set hash algorithm correctly

2018-10-12T15:34:43Z

There was a bug where the hash selection for the local, raptor and ethernet IPCPs was not passed correctly, so they were using a wrong hash. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Check return values init functions

2018-09-28T09:02:44Z

This will check the return values of init functions so that the code is more robust. It also removes a duplicate init in the timerwheel, checks for buffer overflows in the RIB and checks string lengths. Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens
