7 tristate "The TIPC Protocol"
10 The Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) protocol is
11 specially designed for intra cluster communication. This protocol
12 originates from Ericsson where it has been used in carrier grade
13 cluster applications for many years.
15 For more information about TIPC, see http://tipc.sourceforge.net.
17 This protocol support is also available as a module ( = code which
18 can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you
19 want). The module will be called tipc. If you want to compile it
20 as a module, say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.rst>.
25 bool "InfiniBand media type support"
26 depends on TIPC && INFINIBAND_IPOIB
28 Saying Y here will enable support for running TIPC on
29 IP-over-InfiniBand devices.
31 bool "IP/UDP media type support"
35 Saying Y here will enable support for running TIPC over IP/UDP
39 bool "TIPC encryption support"
45 Saying Y here will enable support for TIPC encryption.
46 All TIPC messages will be encrypted/decrypted by using the currently most
47 advanced algorithm: AEAD AES-GCM (like IPSec or TLS) before leaving/
48 entering the TIPC stack.
49 Key setting from user-space is performed via netlink by a user program
50 (e.g. the iproute2 'tipc' tool).
55 tristate "TIPC: socket monitoring interface"
59 Support for TIPC socket monitoring interface used by ss tool.
