[ Upstream commit3aa677625c] TIPC uses named table to store TIPC services represented by type and instance. Each time an application calls TIPC API bind() to bind a type/instance to a socket, an entry is created and inserted into the named table. It looks like this: named table: key1, entry1 (type, instance ...) key2, entry2 (type, instance ...) In the above table, each entry represents a route for sending data from one socket to the other. For all publications originated from the same node, the key is UNIQUE to identify each entry. It is calculated by this formula: key = socket portid + number of bindings + 1 (1) where: - socket portid: unique and calculated by using linux kernel function get_random_u32_below(). So, the value is randomized. - number of bindings: the number of times a type/instance pair is bound to a socket. This number is linearly increased, starting from 0. While the socket portid is unique and randomized by linux kernel, the linear increment of "number of bindings" in formula (1) makes "key" not unique anymore. For example: - Socket 1 is created with its associated port number 20062001. Type 1000, instance 1 is bound to socket 1: key1: 20062001 + 0 + 1 = 20062002 Then, bind() is called a second time on Socket 1 to by the same type 1000, instance 1: key2: 20062001 + 1 + 1 = 20062003 Named table: key1 (20062002), entry1 (1000, 1 ...) key2 (20062003), entry2 (1000, 1 ...) - Socket 2 is created with its associated port number 20062002. Type 1000, instance 1 is bound to socket 2: key3: 20062002 + 0 + 1 = 20062003 TIPC looks up the named table and finds out that key2 with the same value already exists and rejects the insertion into the named table. This leads to failure of bind() call from application on Socket 2 with error message EINVAL "Invalid argument". This commit fixes this issue by adding more port id checking to make sure that the key is unique to publications originated from the same port id and node.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
