Subject: v2 [PATCH 1/5] dccp: Basic data structure for feature negotiation
This is the second/other revised patch for this set [v2 of 1/5].
Changes relative to v1: copied Arnaldos suggested layout and updated the
struct documentation accordingly. Compile-tested the result.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Patch v2 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
dccp: Basic data structure for feature negotiation
This patch prepares for the new and extended feature-negotiation routines.
The following feature-negotiation data structures are provided:
* a container for the various (SP or NN) values,
* symbolic state names to track feature states,
* an entry struct which holds all current information together,
* elementary functions to fill in and process these structures.
Entry structs are arranged as FIFO for the following reason: RFC 4340 specifies
that if multiple options of the same type are present, they are processed in the
order of their appearance in the packet; which means that this order needs to be
preserved in the local data structure (the later insertion code also respects
this order).
The struct list_head has been chosen for the following reasons: the most
frequent operations are
* add new entry at tail (when receiving Change or setting socket options);
* delete entry (when Confirm has been received);
* deep copy of entire list (cloning from listening socket onto request socket).
The NN value has been set to 64 bit, which is a currently sufficient upper limit
(Sequence Window feature has 48 bit).
Thanks to Arnaldo who streamlined the field layout of the entry struct.
