Allan Stephens 7981d6f6b2 tipc: Clean up configuration file
This patch addresses a number of minor (mostly cosmetic) issues relating
to the configuration of TIPC, including the following:

- Corrects range limits for maximum number of ports per node
- Adds missing range limits for size of log buffer
- Removes configuration setting relating to unsupported slave node capability
- Standardizes description and help text wording for configuration settings
- Removes unneeded blank spaces

menuconfig TIPC
tristate "The TIPC Protocol (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on INET && EXPERIMENTAL
---help---
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.
if TIPC
config TIPC_ADVANCED
bool "Advanced TIPC configuration"
default n
help
Saying Y here will open some advanced configuration for TIPC.
Most users do not need to bother; if unsure, just say N.
config TIPC_ZONES
int "Maximum number of zones in a network"
depends on TIPC_ADVANCED
range 1 255
default "3"
help
Specifies how many zones can be supported in a TIPC network.
Can range from 1 to 255 zones; default is 3.
Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory;
setting it to a higher value allows for more zones.
config TIPC_CLUSTERS
int "Maximum number of clusters in a zone"
depends on TIPC_ADVANCED
range 1 1
default "1"
help
Specifies how many clusters can be supported in a TIPC zone.
*** Currently TIPC only supports a single cluster per zone. ***
config TIPC_NODES
int "Maximum number of nodes in a cluster"
depends on TIPC_ADVANCED
range 8 2047
default "255"
help
Specifies how many nodes can be supported in a TIPC cluster.
Can range from 8 to 2047 nodes; default is 255.
Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory;
setting it to higher allows for more nodes.
config TIPC_PORTS
int "Maximum number of ports in a node"
depends on TIPC_ADVANCED
range 127 65535
default "8191"
help
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.
config TIPC_LOG
int "Size of log buffer"
depends on TIPC_ADVANCED
range 0 32768
default "0"
help
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.
config TIPC_DEBUG
bool "Enable debug messages"
default n
help
This enables debugging of TIPC.
Only say Y here if you are having trouble with TIPC. It will
enable the display of detailed information about what is going on.
