* batman-adv: remove packed from batadv_ogm_packetSimon Wunderlich2013-10-09
| | | | | | | | | As we decreased the struct size from 26 to 24 byte, we can remove __packed as the compiler will not add any more padding.

* batman-adv: reorder packet typesSimon Wunderlich2013-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | Reordering the packet type numbers allows us to handle unicast packets in a general way - even if we don't know the specific packet type, we can still forward it. There was already code handling this for a couple of unicast packets, and this is the more generalized version to do that.

* batman-adv: use CRC32C instead of CRC16 in TT codeAntonio Quartulli2013-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | CRC32C has to be preferred to CRC16 because of its possible HW native support and because of the reduced collision probability.

* batman-adv: tvlv - basic infrastructureMarek Lindner2013-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The goal is to provide the infrastructure for sending, receiving and parsing information 'containers' while preserving backward compatibility. TVLV (based on the commonly known Type Length Value technique) was chosen as the format for those containers. Even if a node does not know the tvlv type of a certain container it can simply skip the current container and proceed with the next. Past experience has shown features evolve over time, so a 'version' field was added right from the start to allow differentiating between feature variants - hence the name: T(ype) V(ersion) L(ength) V(alue). This patch introduces the basic TVLV infrastructure: * register / unregister tvlv containers to be sent with each OGM (on primary interfaces only) * register / unregister callback handlers to be called upon finding the corresponding tvlv type in a tvlv buffer * unicast tvlv send / receive API calls Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de> Signed-off-by: Spyros Gasteratos <morfeas3000@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@meshcoding.com>

* batman-adv: set up network coding packet handlers during module initMatthias Schiffer2013-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | batman-adv saves its table of packet handlers as a global state, so handlers must be set up only once (and setting them up a second time will fail). The recently-added network coding support tries to set up its handler each time a new softif is registered, which obviously fails when more that one softif is used (and in consequence, the softif creation fails). Fix this by splitting up batadv_nc_init into batadv_nc_init (which is called only once) and batadv_nc_mesh_init (which is called for each softif); in addition batadv_nc_free is renamed to batadv_nc_mesh_free to keep naming consistent.

* net: Unmap fragment page once iterator is doneWedson Almeida Filho2013-06-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Callers of skb_seq_read() are currently forced to call skb_abort_seq_read() even when consuming all the data because the last call to skb_seq_read (the one that returns 0 to indicate the end) fails to unmap the last fragment page. With this patch callers will be allowed to traverse the SKB data by calling skb_prepare_seq_read() once and repeatedly calling skb_seq_read() as originally intended (and documented in the original commit 677e90eda), that is, only call skb_abort_seq_read() if the sequential read is actually aborted.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * batman-adv: forward late OGMs from best next hopSimon Wunderlich2013-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a packet is received from another node first and later from the best next hop, this packet is dropped. However the first OGM was sent with the BATADV_NOT_BEST_NEXT_HOP flag and thus dropped by neighbors. The late OGM from the best neighbor is then dropped because it is a duplicate. If this situation happens constantly, a node might end up not forwarding the "valid" OGMs anymore, and nodes behind will starve from not getting valid OGMs. Fix this by refining the duplicate checking behaviour: The actions should depend on whether it was a duplicate for a neighbor only or for the originator. OGMs which are not duplicates for a specific neighbor will now be considered in batadv_iv_ogm_forward(), but only actually forwarded for the best next hop. Therefore, late OGMs from the best next hop are forwarded now and not dropped as duplicates anymore.

| * batman-adv: wait for rtnl in batadv_store_mesh_iface instead of failing if ↵Matthias Schiffer2013-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | it is taken The rtnl_lock in batadv_store_mesh_iface has been converted to a rtnl_trylock some time ago to avoid a possible deadlock between rtnl and s_active on removal of the sysfs nodes. The behaviour introduced by that was quite confusing as it could lead to the sysfs store to fail, making batman-adv setup scripts unreliable. As recently the sysfs removal was postponed to a worker not running with the rtnl taken, the deadlock can't occur any more and it is safe to change the trylock back to a lock to make the sysfs store reliable again.
