2689690469 tipc: Avoid recomputation of outgoing message length
Rework TIPC's message sending routines to take advantage of the total
amount of data value passed to it by the kernel socket infrastructure.
This change eliminates the need for TIPC to compute the size of outgoing
messages itself, as well as the check for an oversize message in
tipc_msg_build().  In addition, this change warrants an explanation:

   -     res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, 0);
   +     res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, bytes_to_send);

Previously, the final argument to send_packet() was ignored (since the
amount of data being sent was recalculated by a lower-level routine)
and we could just pass in a dummy value (0). Now that the
recalculation is being eliminated, the argument value being passed to
send_packet() is significant and we have to supply the actual amount
of data we want to send.

741de3e9ff tipc: Remove support for per-connection message sequence numbering
Eliminates TIPC's prototype support for message sequence numbering
on routable connections (i.e. connections requiring more than one hop).
This capability isn't currently used, and can be removed since TIPC
only supports systems in which all inter-node communication can be
achieved in a single hop.

cb7ce91448 tipc: Fix port counter handling to correct congestion control
Modifies TIPC's congestion control between a connected port and its
peer so that it works as documented. The following changes have been
made:

1) The counter of the number of messages sent by a port now starts
   at zero, rather than one. This prevents the port from reporting port
   congestion one message earlier than it was supposed to.

2) The counter of the number of messages sent by a port is now
   incremented only if a non-empty message is sent successfully.
   This prevents the port from becoming permanently congested if
   too many send attempts are unsuccessful because of congestion
   (or other reasons). It also removes the risk that empty hand-
   shaking messages used during connection setup might cause the
   port to report congestion earlier than it was supposed to.

3) The counter of the number of unacknowledged messages received by
   a port controlled by an internal TIPC service is now incremented
   only if the message is non-empty, in order to be consistent with
   the aforementioned changes.

23dd4cce38 tipc: Combine port structure with tipc_port structure
Merge two distinct structures containing information about a TIPC port
into a single structure. The structures were previously kept separate
so that public information about a port could be made available to
applications using TIPC's native API, while the remaining information
was kept private for use by TIPC itself. However, now that the native
API has been removed there is no longer any need for this somewhat
confusing arrangement.

Since one of the structures was already embedded within the other, the
change largely involves replacing instances of "publ.foo" with "foo".
The changes do not otherwise alter the operation of TIPC ports.

0e65967e33 tipc: cleanup various cosmetic whitespace issues
Cleans up TIPC's source code to eliminate deviations from generally
accepted coding conventions relating to leading/trailing white space
and white space around commas, braces, cases, and sizeof.

These changes are purely cosmetic and do not alter the operation of TIPC
in any way.

12bae479ee tipc: Eliminate obsolete native API forwarding routines
Moves the content of each native API message forwarding routine
into the sole routine that calls it, since the forwarding routines
no longer be called in isolation. Also removes code in each routine
that altered the outgoing message's importance level since this is
now no longer possible.

The previous function mapping (parent function, and child API) was
as follows:

   tipc_send2name
       \--tipc_forward2name

   tipc_send2port
       \--tipc_forward2port

   tipc_send_buf2port
       \--tipc_forward_buf2port

After this commit, the children don't exist and their functionality
is completely in the respective parent.

d265fef6dd tipc: Remove obsolete native API files and exports
As part of the removal of TIPC's native API support it is no longer
necessary for TIPC to export symbols for routines that can be called
by kernel-based applications, nor for it to have header files that
kernel-based applications can include to access the declarations for
those routines. This commit eliminates the exporting of symbols by
TIPC and migrates the contents of each obsolete native API include
file into its corresponding non-native API equivalent.

The code which was migrated in this commit was migrated intact, in
that there are no technical changes combined with the relocation.

05646c9110 [TIPC]: Optimize stream send routine to avoid fragmentation
This patch enhances TIPC's stream socket send routine so that
it avoids transmitting data in chunks that require fragmentation
and reassembly, thereby improving performance at both the
sending and receiving ends of the connection.

The "maximum packet size" hint that records MTU info allows
the socket to decide how big a chunk it should send; in the
event that the hint has become stale, fragmentation may still
occur, but the data will be passed correctly and the hint will
be updated in time for the following send.  Note: The 66060 byte
pseudo-MTU used for intra-node connections requires the send
routine to perform an additional check to ensure it does not
exceed TIPC"s limit of 66000 bytes of user data per chunk.
