Gets rid of the need for users to specify the maximum number of cluster nodes supported by TIPC. TIPC now automatically provides support for all 4K nodes allowed by its addressing scheme. Note: This change sets TIPC's memory usage to the amount used by a maximum size node table with 4K entries. An upcoming patch that converts the node table from a linear array to a hash table will compact the node table to a more efficient design, but for clarity it is nice to have all the Kconfig infrastruture go away separately.

|

The Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) protocol is
|
|
specially designed for intra cluster communication. This protocol
|
|
originates from Ericsson where it has been used in carrier grade
|
|
cluster applications for many years.
|
|
|
|
For more information about TIPC, see http://tipc.sourceforge.net.
|
|
|
|
This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which
|
|
can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you
|
|
want). The module will be called tipc. If you want to compile it
|
|
as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>.
|
|
|
|
If in doubt, say N.

Specifies how many ports can be supported by a node.
|
|
Can range from 127 to 65535 ports; default is 8191.
|

Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory,
|
|
setting it to higher allows for more ports.

Size (in bytes) of TIPC's internal log buffer, which records the
|
|
occurrence of significant events. Can range from 0 to 32768 bytes;

default is 0.

There is no need to enable the log buffer unless the node will be

managed remotely via TIPC.

help
|
|
Saying Y here enables TIPC debugging capabilities used by developers.
|
|
Most users do not need to bother; if unsure, just say N.
|
|
|
|
Enabling debugging support causes TIPC to display data about its
|
|
internal state when certain abnormal conditions occur. It also
|
|
makes it easy for developers to capture additional information of
|
|
interest using the dbg() or msg_dbg() macros.
