* ipcpd: Add congestion avoidance policiesDimitri Staessens2020-12-021-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds congestion avoidance policies to the unicast IPCP. The default policy is a multi-bit explicit congestion avoidance algorithm based on data-center TCP congestion avoidance (DCTCP) to relay information about the maximum queue depth that packets experienced to the receiver. There's also a "nop" policy to disable congestion avoidance for testing and benchmarking purposes. The (initial) API for congestion avoidance policies is: void * (* ctx_create)(void); void (* ctx_destroy)(void * ctx); These calls create / and or destroy a context for congestion control for a specific flow. Thread-safety of the context is the responsability of the flow allocator (operations on the ctx should be performed under a lock). ca_wnd_t (* ctx_update_snd)(void * ctx, size_t len); This is the sender call to update the context, and should be called for every packet that is sent on the flow. The len parameter in this API is the packet length, which allows calculating the bandwidth. It returns an opaque union type that is used for the call to check/wait if the congestion window is open or closed (and allowing to release locks before waiting). bool (* ctx_update_rcv)(void * ctx, size_t len, uint8_t ecn, uint16_t * ece); This is the call to update the flow congestion context on the receiver side. It should be called for every received packet. It gets the ecn value from the packet and its length, and returns the ECE (explicit congestion experienced) value to be sent to the sender in case of congestion. The boolean returned signals whether or not a congestion update needs to be sent. void (* ctx_update_ece)(void * ctx, uint16_t ece); This is the call for the sending side top update the context when it receives an ECE update from the receiver. void (* wnd_wait)(ca_wnd_t wnd); This is a (blocking) call that waits for the congestion window to clear. It should be stateless (to avoid waiting under locks). This may change later on if passing the context is needed for different algorithms. uint8_t (* calc_ecn)(int fd, size_t len); This is the call that intermediate IPCPs(routers) should use to update the ECN field on passing packets. The multi-bit ECN policy bases the value for the ECN field on the depth of the rbuff queue packets will be sent on. I created another call to grab the queue depth as fccntl is write-locking the application. We can further optimize this to avoid most locking on the rbuff.

* irm: Revise naming APIDimitri Staessens2020-03-151-7/+123
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 <operation> <name> ...

* ipcpd: Configure PFF from routing policyDimitri Staessens2020-02-161-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* ipcpd: Revise UDP IPCPDimitri Staessens2019-03-181-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | This adds a broadcast IPCP that allows us to easily create multicast applications. The broadcast IPCP accepts flows for "<layer_name>.mc". A tool, obc (Ouroboros broadcast), is added that sends and reads a message to a broadcast layer.

* lib: Simplify reg/unreg APIDimitri Staessens2018-03-221-70/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The reg/unreg API is simplified to registering and unregistering a single name with a single IPCP. The functionality associated with registering names was moved from the IRMd to the irm tool. The function to list IPCPs was simplified to return all IPCPs in the system with their basic properties needed for management. The above changes led to some needed changes in the irm tool and the management functions that were depending on the previous behaviour of list_ipcps. Command line functionality to list IPCPs in the system is also added to the irm tool. Some older code was refactored.

* ipcpd: Add IPCP over DIX EthernetDimitri Staessens2018-03-101-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds an IPC Process that uses DIX Ethernet with an Ethertype that is configurable at bootstrap. This allows parallel DIX layers over the same Ethernet network with different Ethertypes (and one LLC layer). It allows jumbo frames in the future, and should avoid the problems we have with some routers not handling LLC traffic very well. The destination endpoint ID is sent as a 16 bit integer, so the maximum payload is 1498 bytes in standard Ethernet, and 8998 bytes when Jumbo frames are used. The implementation is very similar to the Ethernet LLC IPCP, so it is implemented using preprocessor macros in the single source instead of duplicating code.

* ipcpd: Use the term "layer" and deprecate "shim"Dimitri Staessens2017-12-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* tools: Add tool to connect IPCP componentsdimitri staessens2017-08-281-4/+62
| | | | | | | | | | | | This enables user-written tools to instruct IPCPs to establish and tear down connections (a.k.a. adjacencies) between its internal components (Management and Data Transfer). For more info, do "irm ipcp connect" or "irm ipcp disconnect" on the command line. This commit exposes a deletion bug in the RIB where FSO's fail to unpack/parse. This will be fixed when the RIB is deprecated.
* ipcpd: Deprecate gam as autonomous componentdimitri staessens2017-08-281-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 systemdimitri staessens2017-08-211-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | All information passed over the IRMd/IPCP boundary for using IPC services (flow allocation, registration) is now hashed. This effectively fixes the shared namespace between DIFs and the IRMDs. This PR also fixes some API issues (adding const identifiers), shuffles the include headers a bit and some small bugs.

* ipcpd, lib: Revise normal IPCPdimitri staessens2017-02-061-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | This PR updates the normal IPCP to use the new RIB. The old ribmgr is removed and replaced by a stub that needs to be implemented. All components (dir, fmgr, frct) were adapted to the new RIB API. A lot of functionality was moved outside of the ribmgr, such as the addr_auth, which is now a component of the IPCP. The address is also stored to the ipcpi struct. The irm tool has an option to set the gam policy of the rib manager.

| | | | | | | | | | | | IPCPs can now use ap_init() to initialize the memory. All flows are accessed using flow descriptors, this greatly simplifies IPCP development. Reverts the fast path to a single ap_rbuff per process. Splits lib/ipcp into irmd/ipcp and lib/ipcp-dev. Adds a lib/shim-dev holding tailored functions for shims. Moves the buffer_t to utils.h. Fixes the shim-eth-llc length field. Removes the flow from shared.h. Fixes #4 Fixes #5
* ipcpd: normal: Add operations to get and set the PCISander Vrijders2016-09-071-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | This adds the operations needed in the normal IPCP to get and set the Protocol Control Information. It allows to allocate or release space in the current DU. The struct pci can be serialized into newly allocate space. Vice versa, a struct pci can be deserialized given a DU. It allows for decreasing the TTL in the DU and for calculating the CRC32. The TTL and CRC32 can now be selected when creating a new DIF.
* irmd, lib: Rebuild the IRMd data modeldimitri staessens2016-08-211-16/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The complete data model inside the IRMd has been restructured. The bind operation was revised to allow binding of AP and AP instances and register those names with different DIFs (see "irm bind" for details). Server applications require to call ap_init with a server name argument, client application that do not the be reachable over any DIF can call ap_init(NULL). Calling ap_init for a client with a specified name will not have adverse consequences for the application, but will consume unnecessary resources in the IRMd. Application servers can now be started at any point after the IRMd has been started. Starting servers, binding AP names and registering names in DIFs can be performed in any order that does not defy temporal logic. Supports naming instances by their pid. In case of IPCP Instances created with the IRM tool, the name assigned during "irm ipcp create" can be used. All the changes required updates in the tools.
* lib: Change invalid pid to -1dimitri staessens2016-07-051-3/+3
