HARP | Host ATM Research Platform
===================================
HARP 3
What is this stuff?
-------------------
The Advanced Networking Group (ANG) at the Minnesota Supercomputer Center,
Inc. (MSCI), as part of its work on the MAGIC Gigabit Testbed, developed
the Host ATM Research Platform (HARP) software, which allows IP hosts to
communicate over ATM networks using standard protocols. It is intended to
be a high-quality platform for IP/ATM research.
HARP provides a way for IP hosts to connect to ATM networks. It supports
standard methods of communication using IP over ATM. A host's standard IP
software sends and receives datagrams via a HARP ATM interface. HARP provides
functionality similar to (and typically replaces) vendor-provided ATM device
driver software.
HARP includes full source code, making it possible for researchers to
experiment with different approaches to running IP over ATM. HARP is
self-contained; it requires no other licenses or commercial software packages.
HARP implements support for the IETF Classical IP model for using IP over ATM
networks, including:
o IETF ATMARP address resolution client
o IETF ATMARP address resolution server
o IETF SCSP/ATMARP server
o UNI 3.1 and 3.0 signalling protocols
o Fore Systems's SPANS signalling protocol
What's supported
----------------
The following are supported by HARP 3:
o ATM Host Interfaces
- FORE Systems, Inc. SBA-200 and SBA-200E ATM SBus Adapters
- FORE Systems, Inc. PCA-200E ATM PCI Adapters
- Efficient Networks, Inc. ENI-155p ATM PCI Adapters
o ATM Signalling Protocols
- The ATM Forum UNI 3.1 signalling protocol
- The ATM Forum UNI 3.0 signalling protocol
- The ATM Forum ILMI address registration
- FORE Systems's proprietary SPANS signalling protocol
- Permanent Virtual Channels (PVCs)
o IETF "Classical IP and ARP over ATM" model
- RFC 1483, "Multiprotocol Encapsulation over ATM Adaptation Layer 5"
- RFC 1577, "Classical IP and ARP over ATM"
- RFC 1626, "Default IP MTU for use over ATM AAL5"
- RFC 1755, "ATM Signaling Support for IP over ATM"
- RFC 2225, "Classical IP and ARP over ATM"
- RFC 2334, "Server Cache Synchronization Protocol (SCSP)"
- Internet Draft draft-ietf-ion-scsp-atmarp-00.txt,
"A Distributed ATMARP Service Using SCSP"
o ATM Sockets interface
- The file atm-sockets.txt contains further information
What's not supported
--------------------
The following major features of the above list are not currently supported:
o UNI point-to-multipoint support
o Driver support for Traffic Control/Quality of Service
o SPANS multicast and MPP support
o SPANS signalling using Efficient adapters
This software was developed under the sponsorship of the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

The check for dropping unicast packets not sent to our ethernet

that the common optimization that the interface is in hw promisc mode
iff there is a bpf listener is in general wrong, but more frequently
so on wavelans.
I think Max's fix makes bpf listeners not see unicast packets sent to
others, but I'm not sure.
One can argue that checking on MOD_ENAL is wrong, but the code only
drops packets that shouldn't be received. The correctness condition
is that it be run whenever unicast packets without our mac address can

and DSO_NOLABELS flags prevent searching for slices and labels

- Call isa_dmadone() whenever necessary to stop DMA and/or free bounce
buffers. Undead DMA corrupted the malloc freelist fairly consistently
in the following configuration: SLICE kernel, 2 floppy drives, no disk
in fd0, disk in fd1.
- Don't call fdc_reset() from fd_timeout(). Doing so gave an "extra"
interrupt which was usually misinterpreted as being for completion
of the next FDC command; the interrupt for completion of the next
FDC command was then usually misinterpreted... There were further
complications for interrupts latched by the soft-spl mechanism so
that they were delivered after all the h/w interrupts went away.
This caused at least wrong head settle delays and may be why the
FreeBSD floppy driver seems to munch floppies more than most floppy
drivers. The reset was unnecessary anyway in cases that didn't have
the bug described next, since is was repeated a little later for
the IOTIMEDOUT state. The state machine has complications to handle
resets correctly, so just use it.
- Don't call retrier() from fd_timeout(). The IOTIMEDOUT state needs
to be processed next, and it isn't valid to set to that state if
retrier() has aborted the current transfer. Doing so caused null
pointer panics after the previous bug was fixed.
Improved error handling:
- If an i/o is aborted, arrange to reset in the state machine before
doing the next i/o. New fdc flag for this. This fixes spurious
warnings and lengthy busy-waiting for the next i/o.
- Split STARTRECAL into RESETCOMPLETE and STARTRECAL and only check
for the results from reset if we actually reset. This fixes spurious
warnings for other paths to STARTRECAL. [Oops, it may break reset
handling for motor-off resets.]
Cleanups in fd_timeout():
- Renamed to fd_iotimeout() to make it clearer that it is only used
for i/o.
- Don't handle the bp == 0 case. This case can't happen for i/o.
- Don't check for controller-busy. We know it must be.
- Don't print anything. retrier() already prints too much for normal
errors.
- Fudge the state differently so that the state machine advances
fdc->retry and the status is invalid (perhaps this should fudge a
valid state like the one for WP).
- Style fixes.
fork_trampoline() if switchtime is valid. This fixes not accounting
for the time between the previous context switch and and the current

is now counted in the child's runtime. I think it actually fixes
all cases, and switchtime is always valid here, since there must have
been a context switch just before the forked child starts up. Some
code should be removed if this is correct. The check that switchtime
is valid sometimes gives a false negative because the check isn't
correct until the after the first context switch after the system
has been up for >= 1 second.

controller reports a successful seek, it is very unlikely to report

Corruption of the buffer queue seems to only have been a problem in the

to send on their own!
a) Newer SMC cards have hardware addresses starting with 00:E0.
Netboot compares the MAC address with 00:00:C0 to determine
if it is a WD/SMC card, so it fails to detect these.
b) Netboot is unable to boot kzipped kernels, as it assumes that
the kernel load address is 0x100000.
c) Users can abort the booting process and enter arbitrary network
addresses, or boot from a floppy disk. This can be a problem when
netbooted machines are used in a student environment.
d) It is not possible to set all options via bootp. For example there
is no way to remotely force a client to boot from disk. With both
SECURE_BOOT(patch below) and NO_TFTP defined, short of unplugging
the eprom there is no way at all to get the client to boot locally.
A generic solution is to allow complete netboot commands to be sent
using bootp lines such as:
:T132="diskboot":
e) The last character of netboot command names is not checked. You
can type 'iz 10.0.0.1' and it will be interpreted as 'ip'. This
is only important if you try to add a new command which is the
same as an existing one except for the last character.
f) We have a configuration where multiple servers are willing to serve
a diskless client. The tftp config file, or the bootptab entry on
each server must specify the root and swap filesystems as 'ip:/fs'
even though 'ip' will usually be the responding server's IP address.
It would be nice if netboot could automatically prepend the server's
IP address to an entry specified as just '/fs', so that multiple
servers can use the same tftp or bootp configuration files. Admittedly
this is hardly a major problem!
