39 *
40 * The Lustre Networking subsystem.
41 *
42 * LNet is an asynchronous message-passing API, which provides an unreliable
43 * connectionless service that can't guarantee any order. It supports OFA IB,
44 * TCP/IP, and Cray Portals, and routes between heterogeneous networks.
45 *
46 * LNet can run both in OS kernel space and in userspace as a library.

63 *
64 * Addressing scheme and basic data types of LNet.
65 *
66 * The LNet API is memory-oriented, so LNet must be able to address not only
67 * end-points but also memory region within a process address space.
68 * An ::lnet_nid_t addresses an end-point. An ::lnet_pid_t identifies a process
69 * in a node. A portal represents an opening in the address space of a
70 * process. Match bits is criteria to identify a region of memory inside a
71 * portal, and offset specifies an offset within the memory region.
72 *
73 * LNet creates a table of portals for each process during initialization.
74 * This table has MAX_PORTALS entries and its size can't be dynamically
75 * changed. A portal stays empty until the owning process starts to add
76 * memory regions to it. A portal is sometimes called an index because
77 * it's an entry in the portals table of a process.

96 * incoming requests based on process ID or the match bits provided in the

144 *
145 * Event queues (abbreviated as EQ) are used to log operations performed on
146 * local MDs. In particular, they signal the completion of a data transmission
147 * into or out of a MD. They can also be used to hold acknowledgments for
148 * completed PUT operations and indicate when a MD has been unlinked. Multiple
149 * MDs can share a single EQ. An EQ may have an optional event handler
150 * associated with it. If an event handler exists, it will be run for each
151 * event that is deposited into the EQ.
152 *
153 * In addition to the lnet_handle_eq_t, the LNet API defines two types
154 * associated with events: The ::lnet_event_kind_t defines the kinds of events
155 * that can be stored in an EQ. The lnet_event_t defines a structure that
156 * holds the information about with an event.
157 *
158 * There are five functions for dealing with EQs: LNetEQAlloc() is used to
159 * create an EQ and allocate the resources needed, while LNetEQFree()
160 * releases these resources and free the EQ. LNetEQGet() retrieves the next
161 * event from an EQ, and LNetEQWait() can be used to block a process until
162 * an EQ has at least one event. LNetEQPoll() can be used to test or wait
163 * on multiple EQs.
