35 /* IPC resources management
37 * The goal of this source code is to properly manage IPC resources and allow
38 * straight and clean clean-up procedure upon task termination.
40 * The pattern of usage of the resources is:
41 * - allocate empty phone capability slot, connect | deallocate slot
42 * - disconnect connected phone (some messages might be on the fly)
43 * - find phone in slot and send a message using phone
44 * - answer message to phone
45 * - hangup phone (the caller has hung up)
46 * - hangup phone (the answerbox is exiting)
48 * Locking strategy
50 * - To use a phone, disconnect a phone etc., the phone must be first locked and
51 * then checked that it is connected
52 * - To connect an allocated phone it need not be locked (assigning pointer is
53 * atomic on all platforms)
55 * - To find an empty phone capability slot, the TASK must be locked
56 * - To answer a message, the answerbox must be locked
57 * - The locking of phone and answerbox is done at the ipc_ level.
58 * It is perfectly correct to pass unconnected phone to these functions and
59 * proper reply will be generated.
61 * Locking order
63 * - first phone, then answerbox
64 * + Easy locking on calls
65 * - Very hard traversing list of phones when disconnecting because the phones
66 * may disconnect during traversal of list of connected phones. The only
67 * possibility is try_lock with restart of list traversal.
69 * Destroying is less frequent, this approach is taken.
71 * Phone call
73 * *** Connect_me_to ***
74 * The caller sends IPC_M_CONNECT_ME_TO to an answerbox. The server receives
75 * 'phoneid' of the connecting phone as an ARG5. If it answers with RETVAL=0,
76 * the phonecall is accepted, otherwise it is refused.
78 * *** Connect_to_me ***
79 * The caller sends IPC_M_CONNECT_TO_ME.
80 * The server receives an automatically opened phoneid. If it accepts
81 * (RETVAL=0), it can use the phoneid immediately. Possible race condition can
82 * arise, when the client receives messages from new connection before getting
83 * response for connect_to_me message. Userspace should implement handshake
84 * protocol that would control it.
86 * Phone hangup
88 * *** The caller hangs up (sys_ipc_hangup) ***
89 * - The phone is disconnected (no more messages can be sent over this phone),
90 * all in-progress messages are correctly handled. The answerbox receives
91 * IPC_M_PHONE_HUNGUP call from the phone that hung up. When all async calls
92 * are answered, the phone is deallocated.
94 * *** The answerbox hangs up (ipc_answer(EHANGUP))
95 * - The phone is disconnected. EHANGUP response code is sent to the calling
96 * task. All new calls through this phone get a EHUNGUP error code, the task
97 * is expected to send an sys_ipc_hangup after cleaning up its internal
98 * structures.
101 * Call forwarding
103 * The call can be forwarded, so that the answer to call is passed directly to
104 * the original sender. However, this poses special problems regarding routing
105 * of hangup messages.
107 * sys_ipc_hangup -> IPC_M_PHONE_HUNGUP
108 * - this message CANNOT be forwarded
110 * EHANGUP during forward
111 * - The *forwarding* phone will be closed, EFORWARD is sent to receiver.
113 * EHANGUP, ENOENT during forward
114 * - EFORWARD is sent to the receiver, ipc_forward returns error code EFORWARD
116 * Cleanup strategy
118 * 1) Disconnect all our phones ('ipc_phone_hangup').
120 * 2) Disconnect all phones connected to answerbox.
122 * 3) Answer all messages in 'calls' and 'dispatched_calls' queues with
123 * appropriate error code (EHANGUP, EFORWARD).
125 * 4) Wait for all async answers to arrive and dispose of them.
