A TIPC 1.7 link endpoint does not always processing incoming messages in sequential order if its bearer utilizes a driver with multiple receiving threads. This can be illustrated by the following sequence of events, involving a node with multi-core CPUs A and B:
cpu A
1) invokes tipc_recv_msg() with packet N
2) performs read_lock_bh(&tipc_net_lock) [this ensures TIPC's view of the network...

Laser [gotolaser@gmail.com] has determined that VxWorks TIPC 1.7 does not support Ethernet VLAN interfaces, unlike Linux TIPC 1.7.
Laser has created a prototype patch for TIPC 1.7.6 which seems to provide this functionality (at least on VxWorks 6.3). Al has provided feedback (see below) that describes how the patch might be improved.
> - I'm not an expert in how VLAN code works in VxWorks,

There are several places where TIPC 1.7.6 socket routines return misleading error codes.
a) Certain routines return ERESTARTSYS if a socket operation is prematurely terminated by a signal. These routines should really return EINTR, since ERESTARTSYS is supposed to be an internal Linux error code that is not passed on to applications.
b) The connect() routine returns EISCONN in some cases...

The TIPC project team typically releases patches for problems only if the fix has not yet been incorporated into a later release of TIPC. The team usually advises TIPC users to upgrade their systems to the latest release of TIPC, rather than trying to fix individuals issues, so that they may benefit from all of the fixes and improvements that have been developed for TIPC.

The mechanism for compiling the TIPC utilities was changed significantly in version 1.1.8, in an effort to simplify and improve the consistency of the build tools for tipc-config, the TIPC demos, and the TIPC test suite. The error you've reported suggests that you're no longer picking up the correct version of the TIPC include files when you build -- in all likelihood you're now seeing the...
