Subject: [RFC v1 10/14] bus1: add handle management

From: Tom Gundersen <teg@...m.no>

The object system on a bus is based on 'nodes' and 'handles'. Any peer
can allocate new, local objects at any time. The creator automatically
becomes the sole owner of the object. References to objects can be
passed as payload of messages. The recipient will then gain their own
reference to the object as well. Additionally, an object can be the
destination of a message, in which case the message is always sent to
the original creator (and thus the owner) of the object.

Internally, objects are called 'nodes'. A reference to an object is a
'handle'. Whenever a new node is created, the owner implicitly gains an
handle as well. In fact, handles are the only way to refer to a node.
The node itself is entirely hidden in the implementation, and visible
in the API as an “anchor handle”.

Whenever a handle is passed as payload of a message, the target peer
will gain a handle linked to the same underlying node. This works
regardless of whether the sender is the owner of the underlying node,
or not.

Each peer can identify all its handles (both owned and un-owned) by a
64-bit integer. The namespace is local to each peer, and the numbers
cannot be compared with the numbers of other peers (in fact, they are
very likely to clash, but might still have *different* underlying
nodes). However, if a peer receives a reference to the same node
multiple times, the resulting handle will be the same. The kernel keeps
count of how often each peer owns a handle.

If a peer no longer requires a specific handle, it can release it. If
the peer releases its last reference to a handle, the handle will be
destroyed.

The owner of a node (and *only* the owner) can trigger the destruction
of a node (even if other peers still own handles to it). In this case,
all peers that own a handle are notified of this fact. Once all handles
to a specific node have been released (except for the handle internally
pinned in the node itself), the owner of the node is notified of this,
so it can potentially destroy both any linked state and the node itself.

Node destruction is fully synchronized with any transaction. That is, a
node and all its handles are valid in every message that is transmitted
*before* the notification of its destruction. Furthermore, no message
after this notification will carry the ID of such a destroyed node. Note
that message transactions are asynchronous. That is, there is no unique
point in time that a message is synchronized with another message.
Hence, whether a specific handle passed with a message is still valid or
not, cannot be predicted by the sender, but only by one of the
receivers.

+/**
+ * DOC: Handles
+ *
+ * The object system on a bus is based on 'nodes' and 'handles'. Any peer can
+ * allocate new, local objects at any time. The creator automatically becomes
+ * the sole owner of the object. References to objects can be passed as payload
+ * of messages. The recipient will then gain their own reference to the object
+ * as well. Additionally, an object can be the destination of a message, in
+ * which case the message is always sent to the original creator (and thus the
+ * owner) of the object.
+ *
+ * Internally, objects are called 'nodes'. A reference to an object is a
+ * 'handle'. Whenever a new node is created, the owner implicitly gains an
+ * handle as well. In fact, handles are the only way to refer to a node. The
+ * node itself is entirely hidden in the implementation, and visible in the API
+ * as an "anchor handle".
+ *
+ * Whenever a handle is passed as payload of a message, the target peer will
+ * gain a handle linked to the same underlying node. This works regardless
+ * of whether the sender is the owner of the underlying node, or not.
+ *
+ * Each peer can identify all its handles (both owned and un-owned) by a 64-bit
+ * integer. The namespace is local to each peer, and the numbers cannot be
+ * compared with the numbers of other peers (in fact, they are very likely
+ * to clash, but might still have *different* underlying nodes). However, if a
+ * peer receives a reference to the same node multiple times, the resulting
+ * handle will be the same. The kernel keeps count of how often each peer owns
+ * a handle.
+ *
+ * If a peer no longer requires a specific handle, it can release it. If the
+ * peer releases its last reference to a handle, the handle will be destroyed.
+ *
+ * The owner of a node (and *only* the owner) can trigger the destruction of a
+ * node (even if other peers still own handles to it). In this case, all peers
+ * that own a handle are notified of this fact.
+ * Once all handles to a specific node have been released (except for the handle
+ * internally pinned in the node itself), the owner of the node is notified of
+ * this, so it can potentially destroy both any linked state and the node
+ * itself.
+ *
+ * Node destruction is fully synchronized with any transaction. That is, a node
+ * and all its handles are valid in every message that is transmitted *before*
+ * the notification of its destruction. Furthermore, no message after this
+ * notification will carry the ID of such a destroyed node.
+ * Note that message transactions are asynchronous. That is, there is no unique
+ * point in time that a message is synchronized with another message. Hence,
+ * whether a specific handle passed with a message is still valid or not,
+ * cannot be predicted by the sender, but only by one of the receivers.
