Erik Hugne a5325ae5b8 tipc: add name distributor resiliency queue ... TIPC name table updates are distributed asynchronously in a cluster, entailing a risk of certain race conditions. E.g., if two nodes simultaneously issue conflicting (overlapping) publications, this may not be detected until both publications have reached a third node, in which case one of the publications will be silently dropped on that node. Hence, we end up with an inconsistent name table. In most cases this conflict is just a temporary race, e.g., one node is issuing a publication under the assumption that a previous, conflicting, publication has already been withdrawn by the other node. However, because of the (rtt related) distributed update delay, this may not yet hold true on all nodes. The symptom of this failure is a syslog message: "tipc: Cannot publish {%u,%u,%u}, overlap error". In this commit we add a resiliency queue at the receiving end of the name table distributor. When insertion of an arriving publication fails, we retain it in this queue for a short amount of time, assuming that another update will arrive very soon and clear the conflict. If so happens, we insert the publication, otherwise we drop it. The (configurable) retention value defaults to 2000 ms. Knowing from experience that the situation described above is extremely rare, there is no risk that the queue will accumulate any large number of items.
