summary:     mds: use TIPC multicast for MDS broadcast [#851]

=================================================================================

 mds: support multicast for n_way configuration [#851]
 
- The existing Opensaf Broadcast message was implemented such that the Bcast 
messes will be send to
  only the active subscribers as multiple unicast,  assuming that the 
subscription list may have n_way_active & n_way.
 
- But currently we don't have any n_way configuration in the current Opensaf 
middle ware ,
  and so far we didn't come across such n_way configuration application.
 
- In case of Multicast Messaging TIPC to send a copy of the message to every 
port in the sender's cluster
  irrelevant of role of the subscriber ( assuming application will filter it 
based on active/standby)
 
-  So to match  existing Opensaf Broadcast message , i am providing this Option 
patch as well.
 
- If this is required we will push this optional patch ,
  so attaching `multicast_n_way_support.patch` to ticket for future use when we 
will suppor n_way .
 
Code changes :
 
Before sending the Multicast Messaging , query the subscribers  for  any 
standby exist (n_way subscribers list) ,
if  (if standby exist)  send old type Broadcast message as multiple unicast 
only to actives , else
in the case of n_way_active configuration  sends Multicast Message.

** [tickets:#851] MDS: use TIPC multicast**

**Status:** fixed
**Milestone:** 4.5.FC
**Created:** Mon Apr 14, 2014 09:31 AM UTC by Hans Feldt

MDS broadcast is implemented as multiple unicasts. This does not scale and adds 
unnecessary load to the sending process.

MDS broadcast should use TIPC multicast.

Attached is a hack that does this. It can be used to measure performance 
improvements.
