◆ ignoreRibAndLogSections()

◆ cleanupOnFaceRemoval()

void nfd::cleanupOnFaceRemoval ( NameTree nt,
Fib fib,
Pit pit,
const Face face 
)

cleanup tables when a face is destroyed

This function enumerates the NameTree, calls Fib::removeNextHop for each FIB entry, calls Pit::deleteInOutRecords for each PIT entry, and finally deletes any name tree entries that have become empty.

Note
It's a design choice to let Fib and Pit classes decide what to do with each entry. This function is only responsible for implementing the enumeration procedure. The benefit of having this function instead of doing the enumeration in Fib and Pit classes is to perform both FIB and PIT cleanups in one pass of NameTree enumeration, so as to reduce performance overhead.
