RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 20101.  Introduction   The state machines described in this document are illustrative of how   the GIST protocol defined in [1] may be implemented for the GIST   nodes in different locations of a flow path.  Where there are   differences, [1] is authoritative.  The state machines are   informative only.  Implementations may achieve the same results using   different methods.   There are two types of possible entities for GIST signaling:   -  GIST querying node: GIST node that initiates the discovery of the      next peer;   -  GIST responding node: GIST node that is the discovered next peer.   We describe a set of state machines for these entities to illustrate   how GIST may be implemented.2.  Terminology   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this   document are to be interpreted as described in [2].3.  Notational Conventions Used in State Diagrams   The following text is reused from [3], and the state diagrams are   based on the conventions specified in [4], Section 8.2.1.  Additional   state machine details are taken from [5].RFC 4137 [3] reproduced the following text fromSection 8.2.1 of IEEE   802-1X-2004 [4].      State diagrams are used to represent the operation of the protocol      by a number of cooperating state machines, each comprising a group      of connected, mutually exclusive states.  Only one state of each      machine can be active at any given time.      . . .      All permissible transitions between states are represented by      arrows, the arrowhead denoting the direction of the possible      transition.  Labels attached to arrows denote the condition(s)      that must be met in order for the transition to take place.  All      conditions are expressions that evaluate to TRUE or FALSE; if a      condition evaluates to TRUE, then the condition is met.  The label      UCT denotes an unconditional transition (i.e., UCT alwaysTsenov, et al.                Informational                     [Page 3]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010      evaluates to TRUE).  A transition that is global in nature (i.e.,      a transition that occurs from any of the possible states if the      condition attached to the arrow is met) is denoted by an open      arrow; i.e., no specific state is identified as the origin of the      transition.  When the condition associated with a global      transition is met, it supersedes all other exit conditions      including UCT.  The special global condition BEGIN supersedes all      other global conditions, and once asserted it remains asserted      until all state blocks have executed to the point that variable      assignments and other consequences of their execution remain      unchanged.      On entry to a state, the procedures defined for the state (if any)      are executed exactly once, in the order that they appear on the      page.  Each action is deemed to be atomic; i.e., execution of a      procedure completes before the next sequential procedure starts to      execute.  No procedures execute outside a state block.  The      procedures in only one state block execute at a time, even if the      conditions for execution of state blocks in different state      machines are satisfied, and all procedures in an executing state      block complete execution before the transition to and execution of      any other state block occurs.  That is, the execution of any state      block appears to be atomic with respect to the execution of any      other state block, and the transition condition to that state from      the previous state is TRUE when execution commences.  The order of      execution of state blocks in different state machines is undefined      except as constrained by their transition conditions.  A variable      that is set to a particular value in a state block retains this      value until a subsequent state block executes a procedure that      modifies the value.      On completion of all the procedures within a state, all exit      conditions for the state (including all conditions associated with      global transitions) are evaluated continuously until one of the      conditions is met.  The label ELSE denotes a transition that      occurs if none of the other conditions for transitions from the      state are met (i.e., ELSE evaluates to TRUE if all other possible      exit conditions from the state evaluate to FALSE).  Where two or      more exit conditions with the same level of precedence become TRUE      simultaneously, the choice as to which exit condition causes the      state transition to take place is arbitrary.   In addition to the above notation, there are a couple of   clarifications specific to this document.  First, all boolean   variables are initialized to FALSE before the state machine execution   begins.  Second, the following notational shorthand is specific to   this document:Tsenov, et al.                Informational                     [Page 4]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010   <variable> = <expression1> | <expression2> | ...      Execution of a statement of this form will result in <variable>      having a value of exactly one of the expressions.  The logic for      which of those expressions gets executed is outside of the state      machine and could be environmental, configurable, or based on      another state machine such as that of the method.4.  State Machine Symbols   ( )      Used to force the precedence of operators in boolean expressions      and to delimit the argument(s) of actions within state boxes.   ;      Used as a terminating delimiter for actions within state boxes.      Where a state box contains multiple actions, the order of      execution follows the normal English language conventions for      reading text.   =      Assignment action.  The value of the expression to the right of      the operator is assigned to the variable to the left of the      operator.  Where this operator is used to define multiple      assignments, e.g., a = b = X, the action causes the value of the      expression following the right-most assignment operator to be      assigned to all of the variables that appear to the left of the      right-most assignment operator.   !      Logical NOT operator.   &&      Logical AND operator.   ||      Logical OR operator.   if...then...      Conditional action.  If the boolean expression following the "if"      evaluates to TRUE, then the action following the "then" is      executed.   { statement 1, ... statement N }      Compound statement.  Braces are used to group statements that are      executed together as if they were a single statement.Tsenov, et al.                Informational                     [Page 5]

Common Rules   Throughout the document we use terms defined in [1], such as Query,   Response, and Confirm.   The state machine represents the handling of GIST messages that match   a Message Routing State's Message Routing Information (MRI), NSIS   Signaling Layer Protocol identifier (NSLPID), and session identifier   (SID) and with no protocol errors.  Separate parallel instances of   the state machines should handle messages for different Message   Routing States (MRSs).   The state machine represents the states and transitions of the   upstream and downstream peers of the Message Routing State.   For simplification, not all objects included in a message are shown.   Only those that are significant for the case are shown.  State   machines do not present handling of messages that are not significant   for management of the states.Tsenov, et al.                Informational                     [Page 6]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010   The state machines presented in this document do not cover all   functions of a GIST node.  Functionality of message forwarding,   transmission of NSLP data without MRS establishment, and providing of   the received messages to the appropriate MRS, we refer to as "lower-   level pre-processing" step.  Pre-processing provides to the   appropriate MRS state machine only the messages that are matched   against waiting Query/Response cookies, or the triplet (MRI, NSLPID,   SID) of the established MRS.  This is represented by "rx_*" events in   the state machines.   Management of messaging associations (MAs) is considered in the   document via procedures, events, and variables, which describe MA   interaction with the MRS state machines.  A state machine for MA   management is not explicitly presented.5.1.  Common Procedures   Tx_Query:      Transmit of Query message.   Tx_Response:      Transmit of Response message.   Tx_Confirm:      Transmit of Confirm message.   Tx_Data:      Transmit of Data message.   Tg_MessageStatus:      NSLP/GIST API message informing NSLP application of unsuccessful      delivery of a message   Tg_RecvMsg:      NSLP/GIST API message that provides received message to NSLP      application.   Tg_NetworkNotification:      NSLP/GIST API message that informs NSLP application of change in      MRS.   Install downstream/upstream MRS:      Install new Message Routing State and save the corresponding peer      state info (IP address and UDP port, or pointer to the used MA)      for the current Message Routing State or update the corresponding      peer state info.Tsenov, et al.                Informational                     [Page 7]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010   Delete MRS:      Delete installed downstream/upstream peer's info for the current      Message Routing State, and delete the Message Routing State if      required.   Refresh MRS:      Refreshes installed MRS.   Queue NSLP info:      Save NSLP messages in a queue until conditions for their sending      are present, e.g., a required MA association is established.   CheckPeerInfo:      The sender of the received data message is matched against the      installed peer info in the MRS.   Delete MA:      Delete/disconnect used MA.   Stop using shared MA:      Stop using shared MA.  If the shared MA is no longer being used by      any other MRSs, it depends on the local policy whether it is      deleted or kept.   Tg_Establish_MA:      Triggers establishment of a new MA.   Start/Restart a timer variable (Section 5.3):      Start/Restart of a certain timer.   Install/Update/Delete UpstreamPeerInfo variable (Section 5.3):      Management of upstream peer info in state machine of responding      node.5.2.  Common Events   Rx_Query:      Receive of Query message.   Rx_Response:      Receive of Response message.   Rx_Confirm:      Receive of Confirm message.   Rx_Data:      Receive of Data message.Tsenov, et al.                Informational                     [Page 8]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010   Tg_SendMsg:      NSLP/GIST API message from NSLP application that requests      transmission of a NSLP message.   Tg_SetStateLifetime(time_period):      NSLP/GIST API message providing info for the lifetime of a Routing      State (RS), required by the application.  "Time_period = 0"      represents the cancellation of established RSs/MAs, invoked by the      NSLP application.

Common Variables   Variables listed in this section are defined as:   -  Specific information carried in the received messages.   -  Conditions that are results of processes not defined in the state      machine model.   State machine logic is based on these general conditions and message   parameters.   The type of mode and destination info is determined by NSLP   application parameters and local GIST policy.  Here it is represented   by the common variables D-mode, C-mode, and MAinfo.   C-mode:      The message MUST be transmitted in C-mode.  This is specified by      "Message transfer attributes" set by NSLP application to any of      the following values:      "Reliability" is set to TRUE.Tsenov, et al.                Informational                     [Page 9]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010      "Security" is set to values that request secure handling of a      message.      "Local processing" is set to values that require services offered      by C-mode (e.g., congestion control) [1].   D-mode:      The message MUST be transmitted in D-mode.  This is specified by      local policy rules.  If the "Message transfer attributes" are not      set by NSLP application to any of the following values, then:      "Reliability" is set to TRUE.      "Security" is set to values that request special security handling      of a message.      "Local processing" is set to values that require services offered      by C-mode [1].   MAinfo:      GIST message parameters describing the required MA or proposed MA,      e.g., "Stack-proposal" and "Stack-Configuration-Data" [1].   NSLPdata:      NSLP application data.   RespCookie:      Responder Cookie that is being sent by the responding node with      the Response message in case that its local policy requires a      confirmation from the querying node.   ConfirmRequired:      Indicator that a Confirm message is required by the local policy      rule for installation of a new MRS.

State Machines   The following section presents the state machine diagrams of GIST   peers.RFC 5972 is published as a .txt file.  A supplementary .pdf   is being published as well.   In the .pdf document, the state machine diagrams are depicted in   detail.  All state machine information (triggering event, action   taken, and variable status) is represented in the diagrams.   In the .txt document, state machine diagrams depict only transition   numbers.  Following each diagram is a list of state transition   descriptions.  Complete transition details (triggering event, action   taken, and variable status) are given in state transition tables inAppendix A.   Please use the .pdf version whenever possible.  It is the clearer   representation of the state machine.  In case of a difference between   the two documents, please refer to the .pdf version.Tsenov, et al.

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010   1**) An initial request from the NSLP application is received, which        triggers Query messages requesting either D-mode or C-mode.        Depending on the node's local policy, the NSLP data might be        piggybacked in the Query requesting D-mode.  The Query may carry        MAinfo if C-mode transport is needed.   2)   T_No_Response timer expires, and the maximum number of retries        has been reached.  The NSLP application is notified of the GIST        peer discovery failure.   3)   T_No_Response timer expires.  The Query is resent.   4)   A Data message is received.  It is checked to see whether its        sender matches the installed downstream peer info in the MRS; if        so, it is processed.  In WaitResponse state, this event might        happen in the process of an MA upgrade, when the downstream peer        is still not aware of establishment of the new MA.   5)   The NSLP application provides data for sending.  NSLP data is        queued because the downstream peer is not discovered or the        required MA is still not established.   6)   A Response message is received.  If a D-mode connection is        requested or the available MA can be reused for the requested        C-mode, the MRS is established.   7*)  Response message is received.  If a C-mode connection must be        established, and there is no available MA to be reused, MA        establishment is initiated and the system waits for it to be        completed.   8)   MA establishment fails.  NSLP application is notified for        unsuccessful message delivery.   9)   The NSLP application provides data for sending, and the        requested transport parameters require an upgrade of the        established MRS from D-mode/C-mode to C-mode.  Or, the NSLP        application notifies the GIST instance of the path change.  As a        result, downstream GIST peer discovery is initiated.   10)  The MRS lifetime expires or the NSLP application notifies that        the MRS is no longer needed.  The MRS is deleted.  If not        needed, the MA is deleted, too.  The NSLP application is        notified of the MRS change.   11*) The path change is detected as a Response message from a new        downstream GIST peer is received.  A new MA must be established        for the requested C-mode.Tsenov, et al.                Informational                    [Page 14]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010   12*) A new MA is established.  The MRS is installed.  The queued NSLP        data is sent.   13)  T_Refresh_QNode timer expires.  The Query message is sent.   14)  The NSLP application provides data for sending.  It is sent via        Data message towards the downstream GIST peer.   15)  The Response message from the downstream GIST peer is received.        The peer is not changed.  The MRS is refreshed (T_Refresh_QNode        timer is restarted).   16)  The path change is detected as a Response message from a new        downstream GIST peer is received.  D-mode is requested, or the        existing MA can be reused for the requested C-mode.   17)  The responding peer indicates that it has not received a Confirm        message and it has no established upstream MRS.  The Confirm        message is resent.   18)  A general error or system-level error occurs.  The MRS is        deleted.  If not needed, the MA is deleted, too.  The NSLP        application is notified of the MRS change.   Remarks:   *)  Response and Confirm messages might be sent either in D-mode or       C-mode, before or after MA establishment, depending on the node's       local three-way handshake policy and the availability of the MAs       to be reused.  See [1] for details.   **) Depending on GIST local policy, NSLPdata might be sent as the       payload of Query and Confirm messages (piggybacking).Tsenov, et al.

The MRS is installed immediately      because local policy permits it.  The Query message might carry      piggybacked NSLP data that will be provided to the NSLP      application.Tsenov, et al.                Informational                    [Page 16]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010   2) A Query message is received.  Local policy requires an explicit      Confirm message for MRS installation.  The Query message might      carry piggybacked NSLP data that will be provided to the NSLP      application.   3) T_No_Confirm timer expires.  Note that all cases of lost handshake      GIST messages are handled only by the GIST querying node via      resend of the Query message.   4) A Query message is received again.  This means that the sent      Response message has not been received by the upstream GIST peer.      The Response message is resent.   5) A Confirm message is received that causes installation of the      upstream MRS.   6) In case of a lost Confirm message, data messages might be received      from the upstream GIST node (it is unaware of the lost Confirm      message).  A Response message indicating the loss of the Confirm      is sent back to the upstream GIST node.   7) A Query message is received (from either an existing upstream GIST      node or a new upstream GIST node) with a request to change the      used GIST operation mode (from D-mode/C-mode to C-mode, if      available; otherwise, it stays the same).  Local policy requires      an explicit Confirm message for MRS installation.   8) The MRS lifetime expires or the NSLP application notifies that the      MRS is no longer needed.  The MRS is deleted.  If used and not      needed, the MA is deleted, too.  The NSLP application is notified      of the MRS change.   9) The NSLP application provides data for sending.  NSLP data is sent      if the discovery process is successfully accomplished, or it is      queued if a Confirm message is still expected to confirm      establishment of an MA.   10) A Query message is received.  If it is sent from a new upstream       GIST node, then there is a path change.  Local policy does not       need an explicit Confirm message for MRS installation.  The MRS       data is updated.   11) A Query message is received with a request to change the used       GIST operation mode (from D-mode/C-mode to C-mode, if available;       otherwise, it stays the same).  Local policy does not need an       explicit Confirm message for MRS installation.  The MRS data is       updated.Tsenov, et al.                Informational                    [Page 17]

RFC 5972                   GIST State Machine               October 2010   12) A Data message is received.  Data messages are accepted only if       the complete MRS is installed, e.g., the upstream peer info is       installed.  If not, then a Confirm message is expected and the       Data message is not accepted.  A Response message indicating the       loss of the Confirm is sent back to the upstream GIST node.   13) A Confirm message is received.  It accomplishes assignment of an       existing MA (or establishment of a new MA) needed for data       transfer between peers.  The information for the used MA is       installed as the upstream peer info.   14) A general error or system-level error occurs.  The MRS is       deleted.  If not needed, the MA is deleted, too.  The NSLP       application is notified of the MRS change.7.  Security Considerations   This document does not raise new security considerations.  Security   considerations are addressed in the GIST specification [1] and in   [6].8.
