# # TIPC configuration # 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 . 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. endif # TIPC
