[PATCH net-next v5 0/5] net/x25: netdev event handling

[Martin Schiller]

---

Changes to v4:
o also establish layer2 (LAPB) on NETDEV_UP events, if the carrier is
  already UP.

Changes to v3:
o another complete rework of the patch-set to split event handling
  for layer2 (LAPB) and layer3 (X.25)

Changes to v2:
o restructure complete patch-set
o keep netdev event handling in layer3 (X.25)
o add patch to fix lapb_connect_request() for DCE
o add patch to handle carrier loss correctly in lapb
o drop patch for x25_neighbour param handling
  this may need fixes/cleanup and will be resubmitted later.

Changes to v1:
o fix 'subject_prefix' and 'checkpatch' warnings

[PATCH net-next v5 1/5] net/x25: handle additional netdev events

[Martin Schiller]

1. Add / remove x25_link_device by NETDEV_REGISTER/UNREGISTER and also
   by NETDEV_POST_TYPE_CHANGE/NETDEV_PRE_TYPE_CHANGE.

   This change is needed so that the x25_neigh struct for an interface
   is already created when it shows up and is kept independently if the
   interface goes UP or DOWN.

   This is used in an upcomming commit, where x25 params of an neighbour
   will get configurable through ioctls.

2. NETDEV_CHANGE event makes it possible to handle carrier loss and
   detection. If carrier is lost, clean up everything related to this
   neighbour by calling x25_link_terminated().

3. Also call x25_link_terminated() for NETDEV_DOWN events and remove the
   call to x25_clear_forward_by_dev() in x25_route_device_down(), as
   this is already called by x25_kill_by_neigh() which gets called by
   x25_link_terminated().

4. Do nothing for NETDEV_UP and NETDEV_GOING_DOWN events, as these will
   be handled in layer 2 (LAPB) and layer3 (X.25) will be informed by
   layer2 when layer2 link is established and layer3 link should be
   initiated.

[PATCH net-next v5 2/5] net/lapb: support netdev events

[Martin Schiller]

This patch allows layer2 (LAPB) to react to netdev events itself and
avoids the detour via layer3 (X.25).

1. Establish layer2 on NETDEV_UP events, if the carrier is already up.

2. Call lapb_disconnect_request() on NETDEV_GOING_DOWN events to signal
   the peer that the connection will go down.
   (Only when the carrier is up.)

2. When a NETDEV_DOWN event occur, clear all queues, enter state
   LAPB_STATE_0 and stop all timers.

3. The NETDEV_CHANGE event makes it possible to handle carrier loss and
   detection.

   In case of Carrier Loss, clear all queues, enter state LAPB_STATE_0
   and stop all timers.

   In case of Carrier Detection, we start timer t1 on a DCE interface,
   and on a DTE interface we change to state LAPB_STATE_1 and start
   sending SABM(E).

[PATCH net-next v5 3/5] net/lapb: fix t1 timer handling for LAPB_STATE_0

[Martin Schiller]

1. DTE interface changes immediately to LAPB_STATE_1 and start sending
   SABM(E).

2. DCE interface sends N2-times DM and changes to LAPB_STATE_1
   afterwards if there is no response in the meantime.

Seems reasonable.
It is 35 years since I wrote LAPB and I can't exactly remember
what we did.
If I stole a copy of the code it's on a QIC-150 tape cartridge!

I really don't remember having a DTE/DCE option.
It is likely that LAPB came up sending DM (response without F)
until level3 requested the link come up when it would send
N2 SABM+P hoping to get a UA+F.
It would then send DM-F until a retry request was made.

We certainly had several different types of crossover connectors
for DTE-DTE working.

The support for DTE/DCE was already in the LAPB code and I made it
configurable from userspace (at least for hdlc interfaces) with this
commit:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit?id=f362e5fe0f1f

For Layer3 (X.25) I will add it with an addional patch (you already
commented on that) on a next step.

The described behaviour above is my interpretation of point 2.4.4.1 of
the "ITU-T Recommendation X.25 (10/96) aka "Blue Book" [1].
