Re: [6tisch] 6P and Sf0 issue: Examples of error handling

Hi Diego, Yes, that's what I proposed. The delay that *starting from receiving the failure of 6P transaction, then forwarding to SF and SF make the decision to start another 6P transcation* depends on the position of current slot and next available slot for sending 6P request for Retry. For

Correct Diego And that's a desired effect so that a node gets a lot of bandwidth to complete its join. You better complete a few at a time then have hundreds half way through and none fully done. We may actually reject a join if the queue is too long, exhausting=sleep well and come back in 10

Pascal, I was thinking of a worst-case condition: all neighbours are willing to join. A limited pool would satisfy only a part of them, thus putting the rest of the nodes in a join queue. Am I correct? Regards, Diego 2016-03-04 7:55 GMT-03:00 Pascal Thubert

Pascal, Agreed. Then we should add a new SHOULD item at the end of the "4.2. Requirements for an SF" section on the 6TiSCH Operation Sublayer (6top) draft to include statistics. Regards, Diego 2016-03-04 8:21 GMT-03:00 Pascal Thubert (pthubert)

Tengfei, So, taking into account your proposal, the SF should configure the Retry Limit and handle the retries at SF layer, leaving 6P to deal only with transactions: either they are complete and successful or failed and rolled back (even in a timeout case). Retries shall not

Hi Pascal, This scheme sounds okay ,since it removes the need for 3rd transaction (ACK) I feel the periodic sending of bit pattern is not required. Thanks & Regards, Lijo Thomas From: 6tisch [mailto:6tisch-boun...@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Pascal Thubert (pthubert) Sent: 10 March 2016

Hello Qin A chunk is like heap in malloc, a trick for allocation purpose by the parent to get and defend many cells in one shot. It is more link a “super bundle” than a chunk, since it is a bundle of cells with some slots active and some not, depending on the bit mask that the parent
