2016-02-10batman-adv: Convert batadv_orig_node to krefSven Eckelmann
batman-adv uses a self-written reference implementation which is just based on atomic_t. This is less obvious when reading the code than kref and therefore increases the change that the reference counting will be missed.

2015-08-24batman-adv: Annotate deleting functions with external lock via lockdepSven Eckelmann
Functions which use (h)list_del* are requiring correct locking when they operate on global lists. Most of the time the search in the list and the delete are done in the same function. All other cases should have it visible that they require a special lock to avoid race conditions. Lockdep asserts can be used to check these problem during runtime when the lockdep functionality is enabled.

2015-08-14batman-adv: Fix potential synchronization issues in mcast tvlv handlerLinus Lüssing
So far the mcast tvlv handler did not anticipate the processing of multiple incoming OGMs from the same originator at the same time. This can lead to various issues: * Broken refcounting: For instance two mcast handlers might both assume that an originator just got multicast capabilities and will together wrongly decrease mcast.num_disabled by two, potentially leading to an integer underflow. * Potential kernel panic on hlist_del_rcu(): Two mcast handlers might one after another try to do an hlist_del_rcu(&orig->mcast_want_all_*_node). The second one will cause memory corruption / crashes. (Reported by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>) Right in the beginning the code path makes assumptions about the current multicast related state of an originator and bases all updates on that. The easiest and least error prune way to fix the issues in this case is to serialize multiple mcast handler invocations with a spinlock.

2015-08-14batman-adv: Make MCAST capability changes atomicLinus Lüssing
Bitwise OR/AND assignments in C aren't guaranteed to be atomic. One OGM handler might undo the set/clear of a specific bit from another handler run in between. Fix this by using the atomic set_bit()/clear_bit()/test_bit() functions.

2015-06-07batman-adv: Add required includes to all filesSven Eckelmann
The header files could not be build indepdent from each other. This is happened because headers didn't include the files for things they've used. This was problematic because the success of a build depended on the knowledge about the right order of local includes. Also source files were not including everything they've used explicitly. Instead they required that transitive includes are always stable. This is problematic because some transitive includes are not obvious, depend on config settings and may not be stable in the future. The order for include blocks are: * primary headers (main.h and the *.h file of a *.c file) * global linux headers * required local headers * extra forward declarations for pointers in function/struct declarations The only exceptions are linux/bitops.h and linux/if_ether.h in packet.h. This header file is shared with userspace applications like batctl and must therefore build together with userspace applications. The header linux/bitops.h is not part of the uapi headers and linux/if_ether.h conflicts with the musl implementation of netinet/if_ether.h. The maintainers rejected the use of __KERNEL__ preprocessor checks and thus these two headers are only in main.h. All files using packet.h first have to include main.h to work correctly.

2015-01-06batman-adv: fix multicast counter when purging originatorsLinus Lüssing
When purging an orig_node we should only decrease counter tracking the number of nodes without multicast optimizations support if it was increased through this orig_node before. A not yet quite initialized orig_node (meaning it did not have its turn in the mcast-tvlv handler so far) which gets purged would not adhere to this and will lead to a counter imbalance. Fixing this by adding a check whether the orig_node is mcast-initalized before decreasing the counter in the mcast-orig_node-purging routine.

2015-01-06batman-adv: fix counter for multicast supporting nodesLinus Lüssing
A miscounting of nodes having multicast optimizations enabled can lead to multicast packet loss in the following scenario: If the first OGM a node receives from another one has no multicast optimizations support (no multicast tvlv) then we are missing to increase the counter. This potentially leads to the wrong assumption that we could safely use multicast optimizations. Fixings this by increasing the counter if the initial OGM has the multicast TVLV unset, too.

2014-03-22batman-adv: Send multicast packets to nodes with a WANT_ALL flagLinus Lüssing
With this patch a node sends IPv4 multicast packets to nodes which have a BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_IPV4 flag set and IPv6 multicast packets to nodes which have a BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_IPV6 flag set, too. Why is this needed? There are scenarios involving bridges where multicast report snooping and multicast TT announcements are not sufficient, which would lead to packet loss for some nodes otherwise: MLDv1 and IGMPv1/IGMPv2 have a suppression mechanism for multicast listener reports. When we have an MLDv1/IGMPv1/IGMPv2 querier behind a bridge then our snooping bridge is potentially not going to see any reports even though listeners exist because according to RFC4541 such reports are only forwarded to multicast routers: ----------------------------------------------------------- --------------- {Querier}---|Snoop. Switch|----{Listener} --------------- \ ^ ------- | br0 | < ??? ------- \ _-~---~_ _-~/ ~-_ ~ batman-adv \-----{Sender} \~_ cloud ~/ -~~__-__-~_/ I) MLDv1 Query: {Querier} -> flooded II) MLDv1 Report: {Listener} -> {Querier} -> br0 cannot detect the {Listener} => Packets from {Sender} need to be forwarded to all detected listeners and MLDv1/IGMPv1/IGMPv2 queriers. ----------------------------------------------------------- Note that we do not need to explicitly forward to MLDv2/IGMPv3 queriers, because these protocols have no report suppression: A bridge has no trouble detecting MLDv2/IGMPv3 listeners. Even though we do not support bridges yet we need to provide the according infrastructure already to not break compatibility later.

2014-03-22batman-adv: Add IPv4 link-local/IPv6-ll-all-nodes multicast supportLinus Lüssing
With this patch a node may additionally perform the dropping or unicasting behaviour for a link-local IPv4 and link-local-all-nodes IPv6 multicast packet, too. The extra counter and BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_UNSNOOPABLES flag is needed because with a future bridge snooping support integration a node with a bridge on top of its soft interface is not able to reliably detect its multicast listeners for IPv4 link-local and the IPv6 link-local-all-nodes addresses anymore (see RFC4541, section 2.1.2.2 and section 3). Even though this new flag does make "no difference" now, it'll ensure a seamless integration of multicast bridge support without needing to break compatibility later. Also note, that even with multicast bridge support it won't be possible to optimize 224.0.0.x and ff02::1 towards nodes with bridges, they will always receive these ranges.

2014-03-22batman-adv: Modified forwarding behaviour for multicast packetsLinus Lüssing
With this patch a multicast packet is not always simply flooded anymore, the behaviour for the following cases is changed to reduce unnecessary overhead: If all nodes within the horizon of a certain node have signalized multicast listener announcement capability then an IPv6 multicast packet with a destination of IPv6 link-local scope (excluding ff02::1) coming from the upstream of this node... * ...is dropped if there is no according multicast listener in the translation table, * ...is forwarded via unicast if there is a single node with interested multicast listeners * ...and otherwise still gets flooded.
