Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux

The following scenario is possible: - A user sends a broadcast message, and thereafter immediately leaves the group. - The LEAVE message, following a different path than the broadcast, arrives ahead of the broadcast, and the sending member is removed from the receiver's list. - The broadcast message arrives, but is dropped because the sender now is unknown to the receipient. We fix this by sequence numbering membership events, just like ordinary unicast messages. Currently, when a JOIN is sent to a peer, it contains a synchronization point, - the sequence number of the next sent broadcast, in order to give the receiver a start synchronization point. We now let even LEAVE messages contain such an "end synchronization" point, so that the recipient can delay the removal of the sending member until it knows that all messages have been received. The received synchronization points are added as sequence numbers to the generated membership events, making it possible to handle them almost the same way as regular unicasts in the receiving filter function. In particular, a DOWN event with a too high sequence number will be kept in the reordering queue until the missing broadcast(s) arrive and have been delivered.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
