With the new RB tree structure for service ranges it becomes possible to
solve an old problem; - we can now allow overlapping service ranges in
the table.
When inserting a new service range to the tree, we use 'lower' as primary
key, and when necessary 'upper' as secondary key.
Since there may now be multiple service ranges matching an indicated
'lower' value, we must also add the 'upper' value to the functions
used for removing publications, so that the correct, corresponding
range item can be found.
These changes guarantee that a well-formed publication/withdrawal item
from a peer node never will be rejected, and make it possible to
eliminate the problematic backlog functionality we currently have for
handling such cases.

The current design of the binding table has an unnecessary memory
consuming and complex data structure. It aggregates the service range
items into an array, which is expanded by a factor two every time it
becomes too small to hold a new item. Furthermore, the arrays never
shrink when the number of ranges diminishes.
We now replace this array with an RB tree that is holding the range
items as tree nodes, each range directly holding a list of bindings.
This, along with a few name changes, improves both readability and
volume of the code, as well as reducing memory consumption and hopefully
improving cache hit rate.

The removal of an internal structure of the node address has an unwanted
side effect.
- Currently, if a user is sending an anycast message with destination
domain 0, the tipc_namebl_translate() function will use the 'closest-
first' algorithm to first look for a node local destination, and only
when no such is found, will it resort to the cluster global 'round-
robin' lookup algorithm.
- Current users can get around this, and enforce unconditional use of
global round-robin by indicating a destination as Z.0.0 or Z.C.0.
- This option disappears when we make the node address flat, since the
lookup algorithm has no way of recognizing this case. So, as long as
there are node local destinations, the algorithm will always select
one of those, and there is nothing the sender can do to change this.
We solve this by eliminating the 'closest-first' option, which was never
a good idea anyway, for non-legacy users, but only for those. To
distinguish between legacy users and non-legacy users we introduce a new
flag 'legacy_addr_format' in struct tipc_core, to be set when the user
configures a legacy-style Z.C.N node address. Hence, when a legacy user
indicates a zero lookup domain 'closest-first' is selected, and in all
other cases we use 'round-robin'.

Publications for TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE and TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE are in all
aspects handled the same way, both on the publishing node and on the
receiving nodes.
Despite previous ambitions to the contrary, this is never going to change,
so we take the conseqeunce of this and obsolete TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE and related
macros/functions. Whenever a user is doing a bind() or a sendmsg() attempt
using ZONE_SCOPE we translate this internally to CLUSTER_SCOPE, while we
remain compatible with users and remote nodes still using ZONE_SCOPE.
Furthermore, the non-formalized scope value 0 has always been permitted
for use during lookup, with the same meaning as ZONE_SCOPE/CLUSTER_SCOPE.
We now permit it even as binding scope, but for compatibility reasons we
choose to not change the value of TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE.

Because of the requirement for total distribution transparency, users
send subscriptions and receive topology events in their own host format.
It is up to the topology server to determine this format and do the
correct conversions to and from its own host format when needed.
Until now, this has been handled in a rather non-transparent way inside
the topology server and subscriber code, leading to unnecessary
complexity when creating subscriptions and issuing events.
We now improve this situation by adding two new macros, tipc_sub_read()
and tipc_evt_write(). Both those functions calculate the need for
conversion internally before performing their respective operations.
Hence, all handling of such conversions become transparent to the rest
of the code.

In commit 232d07b74a ("tipc: improve groupcast scope handling") we
inadvertently broke non-group multicast transmission when changing the
parameter 'domain' to 'scope' in the function
tipc_nametbl_lookup_dst_nodes(). We missed to make the corresponding
change in the calling function, with the result that the lookup always
fails.
A closer anaysis reveals that this parameter is not needed at all.
Non-group multicast is hard coded to use CLUSTER_SCOPE, and in the
current implementation this will be delivered to all matching
destinations except those which are published with NODE_SCOPE on other
nodes. Since such publications never will be visible on the sending node
anyway, it makes no sense to discriminate by scope at all.
We now remove this parameter altogether.

When a member joins a group, it also indicates a binding scope. This
makes it possible to create both node local groups, invisible to other
nodes, as well as cluster global groups, visible everywhere.
In order to avoid that different members end up having permanently
differing views of group size and memberhip, we must inhibit locally
and globally bound members from joining the same group.
We do this by using the binding scope as an additional separator between
groups. I.e., a member must ignore all membership events from sockets
using a different scope than itself, and all lookups for message
destinations must require an exact match between the message's lookup
scope and the potential target's binding scope.
Apart from making it possible to create local groups using the same
identity on different nodes, a side effect of this is that it now also
becomes possible to create a cluster global group with the same identity
across the same nodes, without interfering with the local groups.

Currently, when a user is subscribing for binding table publications,
he will receive a PUBLISH event for all already existing matching items
in the binding table.
However, a group socket making a subscriptions doesn't need this initial
status update from the binding table, because it has already scanned it
during the join operation. Worse, the multiplicatory effect of issuing
mutual events for dozens or hundreds group members within a short time
frame put a heavy load on the topology server, with the end result that
scale out operations on a big group tend to take much longer than needed.
We now add a new filter option, TIPC_SUB_NO_STATUS, for topology server
subscriptions, so that this initial avalanche of events is suppressed.
This change, along with the previous commit, significantly improves the
range and speed of group scale out operations.
We keep the new option internal for the tipc driver, at least for now.

When a socket is joining a group, we look up in the binding table to
find if there are already other members of the group present. This is
used for being able to return EAGAIN instead of EHOSTUNREACH if the
user proceeds directly to a send attempt.
However, the information in the binding table can be used to directly
set the created member in state MBR_PUBLISHED and send a JOIN message
to the peer, instead of waiting for a topology PUBLISH event to do this.
When there are many members in a group, the propagation time for such
events can be significant, and we can save time during the join
operation if we use the initial lookup result fully.
In this commit, we eliminate the member state MBR_DISCOVERED which has
been the result of the initial lookup, and do instead go directly to
MBR_PUBLISHED, which initiates the setup.

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.

object. The former is used to communicate with client, and the latter

of subscribing name services from a client through the connection, it
creates a tipc_subscription structure instance which is seen as a
subscription recording what name services are subscribed. In order to
manage all subscriptions from a same client, topology server links
them into the subscrp_list of the subscriber. So subscriber and

As tipc_nametbl_lock is used to protect name_table structure, the lock
must be held while all members of name_table structure are accessed.
However, the lock is not obtained while a member of name_table
structure - local_publ_count is read in tipc_nametbl_publish(), as
a consequence, an inconsistent value of local_publ_count might be got.

TIPC internally created a name table which is used to store name
sequences. Now there is a read-write lock - tipc_nametbl_lock to
protect the table, and each name sequence saved in the table is
protected with its private lock. When a name sequence is inserted
or removed to or from the table, its members might need to change.
Therefore, in normal case, the two locks must be held while TIPC
operates the table. However, there are still several places where
we only hold tipc_nametbl_lock without proprerly obtaining name
sequence lock, which might cause the corruption of name sequence.

As TIPC subscriber server is terminated before name table, no user
depends on subscription list of name sequence when name table is
stopped. Therefore, all name sequences stored in name table should
be released whatever their subscriptions lists are empty or not,
otherwise, memory leak might happen.

Name table locking policy is going to be adjusted from read-write
lock protection to RCU lock protection in the future commits. But
its essential precondition is to convert the allocation way of name
table from static to dynamic mode.

The node subscribe infrastructure represents a virtual base class, so
its users, such as struct tipc_port and struct publication, can derive
its implemented functionalities. However, after the removal of struct
tipc_port, struct publication is left as its only single user now. So
defining an abstract infrastructure for one user becomes no longer
reasonable. If corresponding new functions associated with the
infrastructure are moved to name_table.c file, the node subscription
infrastructure can be removed as well.

TIPC name table updates are distributed asynchronously in a cluster,
entailing a risk of certain race conditions. E.g., if two nodes
simultaneously issue conflicting (overlapping) publications, this may
not be detected until both publications have reached a third node, in
which case one of the publications will be silently dropped on that
node. Hence, we end up with an inconsistent name table.
In most cases this conflict is just a temporary race, e.g., one
node is issuing a publication under the assumption that a previous,
conflicting, publication has already been withdrawn by the other node.
However, because of the (rtt related) distributed update delay, this
may not yet hold true on all nodes. The symptom of this failure is a
syslog message: "tipc: Cannot publish {%u,%u,%u}, overlap error".
In this commit we add a resiliency queue at the receiving end of
the name table distributor. When insertion of an arriving publication
fails, we retain it in this queue for a short amount of time, assuming
that another update will arrive very soon and clear the conflict. If so
happens, we insert the publication, otherwise we drop it.
The (configurable) retention value defaults to 2000 ms. Knowing from
experience that the situation described above is extremely rare, there
is no risk that the queue will accumulate any large number of items.
