config TIPC
tristate "The TIPC Protocol (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/modules.txt>.
If in doubt, say N.
config TIPC_ADVANCED
bool "TIPC: Advanced configuration"
depends on TIPC
default n
help
Saying Y here will open some advanced configuration
for TIPC. Most users do not need to bother, so if
unsure, just say N.
config TIPC_ZONES
int "Maximum number of zones in network"
depends on TIPC && TIPC_ADVANCED
default "3"
help
Max number of zones inside TIPC network. Max supported value
is 255 zones, minimum is 1
Default is 3 zones in a network; setting this to higher
allows more zones but might use more memory.
config TIPC_CLUSTERS
int "Maximum number of clusters in a zone"
depends on TIPC && TIPC_ADVANCED
default "1"
help
***Only 1 (one cluster in a zone) is supported by current code.
Any value set here will be overridden.***
(Max number of clusters inside TIPC zone. Max supported
value is 4095 clusters, minimum is 1.
Default is 1; setting this to smaller value might save
some memory, setting it to higher
allows more clusters and might consume more memory.)
config TIPC_NODES
int "Maximum number of nodes in cluster"
depends on TIPC && TIPC_ADVANCED
default "255"
help
Maximum number of nodes inside a TIPC cluster. Maximum
supported value is 2047 nodes, minimum is 8.
Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory,
setting it to higher allows more nodes.
config TIPC_SLAVE_NODES
int "Maximum number of slave nodes in cluster"
depends on TIPC && TIPC_ADVANCED
default "0"
help
***This capability is not supported by current code.***
Maximum number of slave nodes inside a TIPC cluster. Maximum
supported value is 2047 nodes, minimum is 0.
Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory,
setting it to higher allows more nodes.
config TIPC_PORTS
int "Maximum number of ports in a node"
depends on TIPC && TIPC_ADVANCED
default "8191"
help
Maximum number of ports within a node. Maximum
supported value is 64535 nodes, minimum is 127.
Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory,
setting it to higher allows more ports.
config TIPC_LOG
int "Size of log buffer"
depends on TIPC && TIPC_ADVANCED
default 0
help
Size (in bytes) of TIPC's internal log buffer, which records the
occurrence of significant events. Maximum supported value
is 32768 bytes, minimum 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 debugging support"
depends on TIPC
default n
help
This will enable 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.
