Detailed Description

Best Route strategy version 1.

This strategy forwards a new Interest to the lowest-cost nexthop that is not same as the downstream, and does not violate scope. Subsequent similar Interests or consumer retransmissions are suppressed until after InterestLifetime expiry.

Deprecated:
This strategy is superceded by Best Route strategy version 2, which allows consumer retransmissions. This version is kept for comparison purposes and is not recommended for general usage.

void nfd::fw::BestRouteStrategy::afterReceiveInterest ( const Face &  inFace,
const Interest &  interest,
const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &  pitEntry 
)
overridevirtual

trigger after Interest is received

The Interest:

  • does not violate Scope
  • is not looped
  • cannot be satisfied by ContentStore
  • is under a namespace managed by this strategy

The strategy should decide whether and where to forward this Interest.

  • If the strategy decides to forward this Interest, invoke this->sendInterest one or more times, either now or shortly after
  • If strategy concludes that this Interest cannot be forwarded, invoke this->rejectPendingInterest so that PIT entry will be deleted shortly
Warning
The strategy must not retain shared_ptr<pit::Entry>, otherwise undefined behavior may occur. However, the strategy is allowed to store weak_ptr<pit::Entry>.

Implements nfd::fw::Strategy.

Reimplemented in nfd::fw::ClientControlStrategy.

void nfd::fw::Strategy::afterReceiveNack ( const Face &  inFace,
const lp::Nack &  nack,
const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &  pitEntry 
)
virtualinherited

trigger after Nack is received

This trigger is invoked when an incoming Nack is received in response to an forwarded Interest. The Nack has been confirmed to be a response to the last Interest forwarded to that upstream, i.e. the PIT out-record exists and has a matching Nonce. The NackHeader has been recorded in the PIT out-record.

In this base class this method does nothing.

Warning
The strategy must not retain shared_ptr<pit::Entry>, otherwise undefined behavior may occur. However, the strategy is allowed to store weak_ptr<pit::Entry>.

Reimplemented in nfd::fw::BestRouteStrategy2, and nfd::fw::asf::AsfStrategy.

Definition at line 61 of file strategy.cpp.

void nfd::fw::Strategy::beforeExpirePendingInterest ( const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &  pitEntry)
virtualinherited

trigger before PIT entry expires

PIT entry expires when InterestLifetime has elapsed for all InRecords, and it is not satisfied by an incoming Data.

This trigger is not invoked for PIT entry already satisfied.

In this base class this method does nothing.

Warning
The strategy must not retain shared_ptr<pit::Entry>, otherwise undefined behavior may occur. However, the strategy is allowed to store weak_ptr<pit::Entry>, although this isn't useful here because PIT entry would be deleted shortly after.

void nfd::fw::Strategy::beforeSatisfyInterest ( const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &  pitEntry,
const Face &  inFace,
const Data &  data 
)
virtualinherited

trigger before PIT entry is satisfied

This trigger is invoked when an incoming Data satisfies the PIT entry. It can be invoked even if the PIT entry has already been satisfied.

In this base class this method does nothing.

Warning
The strategy must not retain shared_ptr<pit::Entry>, otherwise undefined behavior may occur. However, the strategy is allowed to store weak_ptr<pit::Entry>.

Reimplemented in nfd::fw::AccessStrategy, nfd::fw::asf::AsfStrategy, and nfd::fw::NccStrategy.

void nfd::fw::Strategy::rejectPendingInterest ( const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &  pitEntry)
inlineprotectedinherited

decide that a pending Interest cannot be forwarded

Parameters
pitEntryPIT entry

This shall not be called if the pending Interest has been forwarded earlier, and does not need to be resent now.

void nfd::fw::Strategy::sendInterest ( const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &  pitEntry,
Face &  outFace,
bool  wantNewNonce = false 
)
inlineprotectedinherited

send Interest to outFace

Parameters
pitEntryPIT entry
outFaceface through which to send out the Interest
wantNewNonceif true, a new Nonce will be generated, rather than reusing a Nonce from one of the PIT in-records

void nfd::fw::Strategy::sendNack ( const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &  pitEntry,
const Face &  outFace,
const lp::NackHeader &  header

send Nack to outFace

Parameters
pitEntryPIT entry
outFaceface through which to send out the Nack
headerNack header

The outFace must have a PIT in-record, otherwise this method has no effect.

Definition at line 164 of file strategy.hpp.

void nfd::fw::Strategy::sendNacks ( const shared_ptr< pit::Entry > &  pitEntry,
const lp::NackHeader &  header,
std::initializer_list< const Face * >  exceptFaces = std::initializer_list<const Face*>() 
)
protectedinherited

send Nack to every face that has an in-record, except those in exceptFaces

Parameters
pitEntryPIT entry
headerNACK header
exceptFaceslist of faces that should be excluded from sending Nacks
Note
This is not an action, but a helper that invokes the sendNack action.
