We introduce a 128-bit free-format node identity as an alternative to
the legacy <Zone.Cluster.Node> structured 32-bit node address.
We also make configuration of this identity optional; if a bearer is
enabled without a pre-configured node id it will be set automatically
based on the used interface's MAC or IP address.
Jon Maloy (8):
tipc: refactor function tipc_enable_bearer()
tipc: some cleanups in the file discover.c
tipc: remove restrictions on node address values
tipc: allow closest-first lookup algorithm when legacy address is
configured
tipc: remove direct accesses to own_addr field in struct tipc_net
tipc: add 128-bit node identifier
tipc: handle collisions of 32-bit node address hash values
tipc: obtain node identity from interface by default
