Rafael H. Schloming updated PROTON-39:
--------------------------------------
Component/s: proton-j
> Implement pn_offer for sender links
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: PROTON-39
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-39
> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: proton-c, proton-j
> Reporter: Ted Ross
> Attachments: proton-39.patch
>
>
> The proposed patch adds two functions to the engine API:
> void pn_offer(link, credit)
> bool pn_connection_links_writeable(conn)
> pn_offer is used by the attached node to indicate to the engine that it has
> messages available for immediate transfer over the link.
> pn_connection_links_writable returns true if the connection has at least one
> outgoing link with both receiver credit and offered credit. This is used by
> the driver to ensure that the connection's FD (or equivalent) is in the set
> of writable FDs to be processed it the outgoing transport is writable.
> Note that pn_offer is absolute (not cumulative). The attached node is
> responsible for keeping the offer vaule up-to-date as messages are sent and
> received.
> The patch does not make any changes to the protocol exchange. Additional
> work is needed to communicate the offer information to the remote receiver so
> the receiver can intelligently manage its credits.
> The driving need for this change is for driver functionality. pn_offer is
> the cleanest mechanism for a node to tell the driver that an outbound link's
> connection should be processed.
