.Sh NAME
.Nm ng_sscfu
.Nd netgraph SSCF at the UNI node type
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <netnatm/saal/sscopdef.h>
.Fd #include <netnatm/saal/sscfudef.h>
.Fd #include <netgraph/atm/ng_sscfu.h>
.Sh DESCIPTION
The
.Nm
netgraph node implements ITU-T recommendation Q.2130.
This recommendation specifies the Service Specific Coordination
Function at the UNI.
This is a thin sub-layer between the SSCOP (see
.Xr ng_sscop 4 )
and the UNI signalling.
This node does not really implement a protocol but
provides a mapping between the signals at the upper layer of the SSCOP and
the signals, the UNI expectes at its lower layer.
It also provides default values for the parameters of the SSCOP.
.Pp
After creation of the node, the SSCF instance must be created by sending
an enable message to the node.
If the node is enabled, default SSCOP parameters
can be retrieved and and set in the corresponding SSCOP instance.
.Pp
The node is shutdown either by a
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
message or when all hooks are disconnected.
.Sh HOOKS
Each
.Nm
node has two hooks with fixed names:
.Bl -tag -width upper
.It Dv lower
This hook is the interface to the SSCOP.
The interface expected here is exactly
that which is exported by the
.Xr ng_sscop 4
node type.
.It Dv upper
This is the interface to the UNI. It uses the following message format:
.Bd -literal
struct sscfu_arg {
uint32_t sig;
u_char data[];
};
.Ed
.Pp
.Fa sig
is one of the following signals:
.Bd -literal
enum saal_sig {
SAAL_ESTABLISH_request, /* U -> SAAL: (UU) */
SAAL_ESTABLISH_indication, /* SAAL -> U: (UU) */
SAAL_ESTABLISH_confirm, /* SAAL -> U: (UU) */
SAAL_RELEASE_request, /* U -> SAAL: (UU) */
SAAL_RELEASE_confirm, /* SAAL -> U: */
SAAL_RELEASE_indication, /* SAAL -> U: (UU) */
SAAL_DATA_request, /* U -> SAAL: (DATA) */
SAAL_DATA_indication, /* SAAL -> U: (DATA) */
SAAL_UDATA_request, /* U -> SAAL: (UDATA) */
SAAL_UDATA_indication, /* SAAL -> U: (UDATA) */
};
.Ed
.Pp
The arrows in the comment show the direction of the signal whether it
is a signal that comes out of the node
.Ql ->
or is sent by the node user to the node
.Ql <- .
The type of data expected for the signal is specified in parantheses.
This data starts at the
.Fa data
field of the message structure.
.El
.Pp
If the
.Dv lower
hook is disconnected and the node is enabled, the protocol state is
reset.
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
The
.Nm
node understands the generic messages plus the following:
.Bl -tag -width xxx
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_GETDEFPARAM
This message returns a
.Fa sscop_param
structure, which contains the default parameters for the SSCOP at the
UNI.
This structure should be used for a
.Dv NGM_SSCOP_SETPARAM
message to the SSCOP node below the SSCF.
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_ENABLE
This message creates the actual SSCF instance and initializes it.
Until this is done, parameters may not be retrieved not set and all message
received on any hook are discarded.
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_DISABLE
Destroy the SSCF instance.
After this all messages on any hooks are discarded.
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_GETDEBUG
Retrieve the debugging flags in an
.Vt uint32_t .
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_SETDEBUG
Set debugging flags.
The argument must be an
.Vt uint32_t .
.It Dv NGM_SSCFU_GETSTATE
Retrieve the current state of the SSCFU instance in an
.Vt uint32_t .
If the node has not been enabled, 0 is returned.

.Sh NAME
.Nm ng_sscop
.Nd netgraph SSCOP node type
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <netnatm/saal/sscopdef.h>
.Fd #include <netgraph/atm/ng_sscop.h>
.Sh DESCIPTION
The
.Nm
netgraph node implements the ITU-T standard Q.2110. This standard describes
the so called Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP) that
is used to carry signalling messages over the private and public UNIs and
the public NNI.
This protocol is a transport protocol with selective
acknowledgements and can be tailored to the environment.
This implementation is a full implementation of that standard.
.Pp
After creation of the node, the SSCOP instance must be created by sending
an enable message to the node.
If the node is enabled, the SSCOP parameters
can be retrieved and modified and the protocol can be started.
.Pp
The node is shutdown either by a
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
message or when all hooks are disconnected.
.Sh HOOKS
Each
.Nm
node has three hooks with fixed names:
.Bl -tag -width manage
.It Dv lower
This hook is the hook that must be connected to a node that ensures
transport of packets to and from the remote peer node. Normally this is a
.Xr ng_atm 4
node with an AAL5 hook, but the
.Nm
node is able to work on any packet-transporting layer, like, for example,
IP or UDP.
The node handles flow control messages received on
this hook: if it receives a
.Dv NGM_HIGH_WATER_PASSED
message it declares the
.Ql lower layer busy
state.
If a
.Dv NGM_LOW_WATER_PASSED
message is received the busy state is cleared.
Note, that the node does not
look at the message contents of these flow control messages.
.It Dv upper
This is the interface to the SSCOP user.
This interface uses the following message format:
.Bd -literal
struct sscop_arg {
uint32_t sig;
uint32_t arg; /* opt. sequence number or clear-buff */
u_char data[];
};
.Ed
.Pp
.Fa sig
is one of the signals defined in the standard:
.Bd -literal
enum sscop_aasig {
SSCOP_ESTABLISH_request, /* <- UU, BR */
SSCOP_ESTABLISH_indication, /* -> UU */
SSCOP_ESTABLISH_response, /* <- UU, BR */
SSCOP_ESTABLISH_confirm, /* -> UU */
SSCOP_RELEASE_request, /* <- UU */
SSCOP_RELEASE_indication, /* -> UU, SRC */
SSCOP_RELEASE_confirm, /* -> */
SSCOP_DATA_request, /* <- MU */
SSCOP_DATA_indication, /* -> MU, SN */
SSCOP_UDATA_request, /* <- MU */
SSCOP_UDATA_indication, /* -> MU */
SSCOP_RECOVER_indication, /* -> */
SSCOP_RECOVER_response, /* <- */
SSCOP_RESYNC_request, /* <- UU */
SSCOP_RESYNC_indication, /* -> UU */
SSCOP_RESYNC_response, /* <- */
SSCOP_RESYNC_confirm, /* -> */
SSCOP_RETRIEVE_request, /* <- RN */
SSCOP_RETRIEVE_indication, /* -> MU */
SSCOP_RETRIEVE_COMPL_indication,/* -> */
};
.Ed
.Pp
The arrows in the comment show the direction of the signal whether it
is a signal that comes out of the node
.Ql ->
or is sent by the node user to the node
.Ql <- .
The
.Fa arg
field contains the argument to some of the signals: it is either a PDU
sequence number or the
.Dv CLEAR-BUFFER
flag.
There are a number of special sequence numbers for some operations:
.Bl -column SSCOP_RETRIEVE_UNKNOWN -offset indent
.It Dv SSCOP_MAXSEQNO Ta maximum legal sequence number
.It Dv SSCOP_RETRIEVE_UNKNOWN Ta retrieve transmission queue
.It Dv SSCOP_RETRIEVE_TOTAL Ta retrieve transmission buffer and queue
.El
.Pp
For signals that carry user data (as, for example,
.Dv SSCOP_DATA_request )
these two fields are followed by the variable sized user data.
.Pp
If the upper hook is disconnected and the SSCOP instance is not in the idle
state and the lower hook is still connected, an
.Dv SSCOP_RELEASE_request
is executed to release the SSCOP connection.
.It Dv manage
This is the management interface defined in the standard.
The data structure used here is:
.Bd -literal
struct sscop_marg {
uint32_t sig;
u_char data[];
};
.Ed
.Pp
Here
.Dv sig
is one of
.Bd -literal
enum sscop_maasig {
SSCOP_MDATA_request, /* <- MU */
SSCOP_MDATA_indication, /* -> MU */
SSCOP_MERROR_indication, /* -> CODE, CNT */
};
.Ed
.Pp
The
.Dv SSCOP_MDATA
signals are followed by the actual management data, where the
.Dv SSCOP_MERROR
signal has the form:
.Bd -literal
struct sscop_merr {
uint32_t sig;
uint32_t err; /* error code */
uint32_t cnt; /* error count */
};
.Ed
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
The
.Nm
node understands the generic messages plus the following:
.Bl -tag -width xxx
.It Dv NGM_SSCOP_SETPARAM
Set operational parameters of the SSCOP instance and takes the
following structure:
.Bd -literal
struct ng_sscop_setparam {
uint32_t mask;
struct sscop_param param;
};
.Ed
.Pp
The sub-structure
.Dv param
contains the parameters to set and the
.Dv mask
field contains a bit mask, telling which of the parameters to set and which
to ignore.
If a bit is set, the corresponding parameter is set.
The parameters are:
.Bd -literal
struct sscop_param {
uint32_t timer_cc; /* timer_cc in msec */
uint32_t timer_poll; /* timer_poll im msec */
uint32_t timer_keep_alive;/* timer_keep_alive in msec */
uint32_t timer_no_response;/*timer_no_response in msec */
uint32_t timer_idle; /* timer_idle in msec */
uint32_t maxk; /* maximum user data in bytes */
uint32_t maxj; /* maximum u-u info in bytes */
uint32_t maxcc; /* max. retransmissions for control packets */
uint32_t maxpd; /* max. vt(pd) before sending poll */
uint32_t maxstat; /* max. number of elements in stat list */
uint32_t mr; /* initial window */
uint32_t flags; /* flags */
};
.Ed
.Pp
The
.Dv flags
field contains the following flags influencing SSCOP operation:
.Bl -column SSCOP_POLLREX -offset indent
.It Dv SSCOP_ROBUST Ta enable atmf/97-0216 robustness enhancement
.It Dv SSCOP_POLLREX Ta send POLL after each retransmission
.El
.Pp
The bitmap has the following bits:
.Bl -column SSCOP_POLLREXx -offset indent
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_TCC Ta set Dv timer_cc
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_TPOLL Ta set Dv timer_poll
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_TKA Ta set Dv timer_keep_alive
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_TNR Ta set Dv timer_no_response
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_TIDLE Ta set Dv timer_idle
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_MAXK Ta set Dv maxk
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_MAXJ Ta set Dv maxj
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_MAXCC Ta set Dv maxcc
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_MAXPD Ta set Dv maxpd
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_MAXSTAT Ta set Dv maxstat
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_MR Ta set the initial window
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_ROBUST Ta set or clear Dv SSCOP_ROBUST
.It Dv SSCOP_SET_POLLREX Ta set or clear Dv SSCOP_POLLREX
.El
.Pp
The node responds to the
.Dv NGM_SSCOP_SETPARAM
message with the following response:
.Bd -literal
struct ng_sscop_setparam_resp {
uint32_t mask;
int32_t error;
};
.Ed
.Pp
Here
.Dv mask
contains the a bitmask of the parameters that the user requested to set,
but that could not be set and
.Dv error
is an
.Xr errno 3
code describing why the parameter could not be set.
.It Dv NGM_SSCOP_GETPARAM
This message returns the current operational parameters of the SSCOP
instance in a
.Fa sscop_param
structure.
.It Dv NGM_SSCOP_ENABLE
This message creates the actual SSCOP instance and initializes it.
Until this is done, parameters may neither be retrieved not set and all
message received on any hook are discarded.
.It Dv NGM_SSCOP_DISABLE
Destroy the SSCOP instance. After this all messages on any hooks are
discarded.
.It Dv NGM_SSCOP_SETDEBUG
Set debugging flags. The argument is an
.Vt uint32_t .
.It Dv NGM_SSCOP_GETDEBUG
Retrieve the actual debugging flags.
Needs no arguments and responds with an
.Vt uint32_t .
.It Dv NGM_SSCOP_GETSTATE
Responds with the current state of the SSCOP instance in an
.Vt uint32_t .
If the node is not enabled the retrieved state is 0.
.El
.Sh FLOW CONTROL
Flow control works on the upper and on the lower layer interface. At the lower
layer interface the two messages
.Dv NGM_HIGH_WATER_PASSED
and
.Dv NGM_LOW_WATER_PASSED
are used to declare or clear the
.Ql lower layer busy
state of the protocol.
.Pp
At the upper layer interface the
.Nm
node handles three types of flow control messages:
.Bl -tag -width xxx
.It Dv NGM_HIGH_WATER_PASSED
If this message is received the SSCOP stops moving the receive window.
Each time a data message is handed over to the upper layer the receive
window is moved by one message.
Stopping these updates
means that the window will start to close and if the peer has sent
all messages allowed by the current window, it stops transmission.
This means, that the upper layer must be able to receive still a full window
amount of messages.
.It Dv NGM_LOW_WATER_PASSED
This will re-enable the automatic window updates and if the space indicated
in the message is larger than the current window, the window will be opened
by that amount.
The space is computed as the difference of the
.Fa max_queuelen_packets
and
.Fa current
members of the
.Fa ngm_queue_state
structure.
.It Dv NGM_SYNC_QUEUE_STATE
If the upper layer buffer filling state as indicated by
.Fa current
is equal too or higher than
.Fa high_watermark
than the message is ignored.
If this is not the case the amount
of receiver space is computed as the difference of
.Fa max_queuelen_packets
and
.Fa current ,
if automatic window updates are currently allowed and as the difference of
.Fa high_water_mark
and
.Fa current ,
if window updates are disabled.
If the resulting value is larger than the current window, the current window
is opened up to this value.
Automatic window updates are enabled, if they
were disabled.
