ipcpd: Use 64-bit flow endpoint IDs for DT
The EIDs are now 64-bit. This makes it a tad harder to guess them (think of port scanning). The implementation has only the most significant 32 bits random to quickly map EIDs to N+1 flows. While this is equivalent to a random cookie as a check on flows, the rationale is that valid endpoint IDs should be pretty hard to guess (and thus be 64-bit random at least). Ideally one would use content-addressable memory for this kind of mapping. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <[email protected]>
