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.

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.

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.

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.
