| 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. |

| 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_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 debugging support" |
| default n |
| 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. |
