6 tristate "The TIPC Protocol (EXPERIMENTAL)"
7 depends on INET && EXPERIMENTAL
9 The Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) protocol is
10 specially designed for intra cluster communication. This protocol
11 originates from Ericsson where it has been used in carrier grade
12 cluster applications for many years.
14 For more information about TIPC, see http://tipc.sourceforge.net.
16 This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which
17 can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you
18 want). The module will be called tipc. If you want to compile it
19 as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>.
26 bool "Advanced TIPC configuration"
29 Saying Y here will open some advanced configuration for TIPC.
30 Most users do not need to bother; if unsure, just say N.
33 int "Maximum number of ports in a node"
34 depends on TIPC_ADVANCED
38 Specifies how many ports can be supported by a node.
39 Can range from 127 to 65535 ports; default is 8191.
41 Setting this to a smaller value saves some memory,
42 setting it to higher allows for more ports.
45 int "Size of log buffer"
46 depends on TIPC_ADVANCED
50 Size (in bytes) of TIPC's internal log buffer, which records the
51 occurrence of significant events. Can range from 0 to 32768 bytes;
54 There is no need to enable the log buffer unless the node will be
55 managed remotely via TIPC.
58 bool "Enable debugging support"
61 Saying Y here enables TIPC debugging capabilities used by developers.
62 Most users do not need to bother; if unsure, just say N.
64 Enabling debugging support causes TIPC to display data about its
65 internal state when certain abnormal conditions occur. It also
66 makes it easy for developers to capture additional information of
67 interest using the dbg() or msg_dbg() macros.
