Protocol Operational description

================================

|
Characteristics:
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
The ARP protocol provides for reliable and non-reliable packet delivery
|
|
over an existing non-reliable (datagram) protocol. It is assumed that
|
|
packet length information and addressing information is carried by the
|
|
datagram protocol and these fields are therefore ambiguous and excluded
|
|
from ARP.
|
|
|
|
ARP is optimized to provide a minimum of overhead in the case of low
|
|
bandwidth links. The overhead per-packet is 3 bytes.
|
|
|
|
ARP's default command is the delivery of I frames. This avoids the need
|
|
for a command field in the protocol header for the most common frame type.
|
|
|
|
ARP does segmentation and reassembly on large datagram messages. This
|
|
allows for datagram delivery of messages larger than 1 packet.
|
|
|
|
ARP does a hybrid of windowing with selective NACK of missing packets,
|
|
allowing optimal operation on both good and weak links, regardless
|
|
of latency.
|
|
|
|
ARP assigns each frame a serial number that is used in the ACK responses.
|
|
This allows the protocol to keep up to date latency information as well
|
|
as recognize which packet is being responded to in a retry situation.
|
|
The serial number allows the protocol to adjust timeouts reliably.
|
|
|
|
ARP allows multiple messages to be sent concurrently. Having multiple
|
|
messages prevents the system from blocking on retry from a single packet
|
|
transmission failure. It also allows better use of available bandwidth
|
|
since the protocol does not wait for the ACK from one message before
|
|
sending the next.
|
|
|
|
{FUTURE: What about packet sub-allocation? Bandwidth allocation?}
|
|

Big:

|
|
|
|
Flags:
|
|
|
|
STA - start of a message.
|
|
EOM - this bit is set when the packet is the last packet of a message
|
|
ACK - used to signify that this is an ACK packet, otherwise a COMMAND
|
|
- if nACK != 0, the ACK is informative only. i.e - tells client
|
|
last ACKed frame that instigated the nACK to update latency
|
|
information. An ACK without nACK indicates all frames up
|
|
to the ACK frame were successfully received. Any bit set
|
|
in the nACK mask indicates a missing frame, any 0 bit indicates
|
|
a frame that was successfully received.
|
|
SAK - when this bit is set, the receiver must send an ACK packet
|
|
for this packet.
|
|
RLY - indicates that this message is being delivered reliably.
|
|
BIG - when this bit is set, the packets are in large format TYPE 3.
|
|
CMD - command frame. When this bit is set, the packet contains a
|
|
command. If there is no COMMAND field it is an I frame.
|
|
EXT - when the BIG bit is not set, indicates extended flags are present.
|
|
|
|
Extended Flags:
|
|
|
|
nNACK - if non-zero indicates presence of nNACK byte masks. The NACK
|
|
field consists of a sequence number followed by nNACK byte masks.
|
|
Each bit in the mask represents a packet after the packet specified
|
|
in the sequence number. The packet in the sequence number is also
|
|
being NACKed.
|
|
|
|
Command:
|
|
|
|
The command field is used to specify protocol subcommands. The following
|
|
are defined. Commands larger than 15 require BIG packets. Commands that
|
|
require responses include the response in the ACK packet. All protocol
|
|
commands are unreliable. Each command has its own messageid sequence and
|
|
serial. This means commands can be of arbitrary length. The Response
|
|
to a command is also a command.
|
|
|
|
0000 0 - Default - I Frame or ACK/NACK (nACK != 0)
|
|
0001 1 - ABORT
|
|
0010 2 - Ping - send packet back to sender.
|
|
0011 3 - Ping Response - a message being returned.
|
|
0100 4 - GetTime - Get the tick count.
|
|
0101 5 - Get Time Response - Response to the Get Time request.
|
|
0110 6 - SetTime - Set the tick count.
|
|
0111 7 - Set Time Response - Response to the Set Time request.
|
|
|
|
Rule for processing EXT bits. If a byte in the flags has the high
|
|
bit set, there is one more byte. Ignore any bits beyond what you know
|
|
how to process.

Sample Packets:

===============
|
|
|
|
Time setting algorithm?
|
|
|
|
Bandwidth Calculations?
|
|
|
|
Scheduling?
|
|
|
|
Window Size?
|
|
|
|
Interpacket wait?
|
|
|
|
Send Queue Management?
|
|
|
|
Command for selective NACK.
|
|
|
|
RLY bit separates 2 streams - reliable/datagram. For piggyback
|
|
ACK this means reliable piggyback ACKs are only on reliable streams
|
|
and datagram piggyback ACKs are only on non-reliable streams.
