The Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) protocol is
specially designed for intra cluster communication. This protocol
originates from Ericsson where it has been used in carrier grade
cluster applications for many years.
For more information about TIPC, see http://tipc.sourceforge.net.
This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which
can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you
want). The module will be called tipc. If you want to compile it
as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.rst>.
If in doubt, say N.
config TIPC_MEDIA_IB
bool "InfiniBand media type support"
depends on TIPC && INFINIBAND_IPOIB
help
Saying Y here will enable support for running TIPC on
IP-over-InfiniBand devices.
config TIPC_MEDIA_UDP
bool "IP/UDP media type support"
depends on TIPC
select NET_UDP_TUNNEL
default y
help
Saying Y here will enable support for running TIPC over IP/UDP
config TIPC_CRYPTO
bool "TIPC encryption support"
depends on TIPC
select CRYPTO
select CRYPTO_AES
select CRYPTO_GCM
default y
help
Saying Y here will enable support for TIPC encryption.
All TIPC messages will be encrypted/decrypted by using the currently most
advanced algorithm: AEAD AES-GCM (like IPSec or TLS) before leaving/
entering the TIPC stack.
Key setting from user-space is performed via netlink by a user program
(e.g. the iproute2 'tipc' tool).
config TIPC_DIAG
tristate "TIPC: socket monitoring interface"
depends on TIPC
default y
help
Support for TIPC socket monitoring interface used by ss tool.
If unsure, say Y.
