2016-07-08ieee802154: allow netns create of lowpan interfaceAlexander Aring
This patch reverts commit f9d1ce8f81eb ("ieee802154: fix netns settings"). The lowpan interface need to be created inside the net namespace where the wpan interface is available. The wpan namespace can be changed only by nl802154 before. Without this patch it's not possible to create a lowpan interface for a wpan interface which isn't inside init_net namespace.

This patch will introduce a 6lowpan neighbour private data. Like the interface private data we handle private data for generic 6lowpan and for link-layer specific 6lowpan. The current first use case if to save the short address for a 802.15.4 6lowpan neighbour. Cc: David S.

Instead of using a single bit (__QDISC___STATE_RUNNING) in sch->__state, use a seqcount. This adds lockdep support, but more importantly it will allow us to sample qdisc/class statistics without having to grab qdisc root lock.

2015-10-086lowpan: move shared settings to lowpan_netdev_setupAlexander Aring
This patch moves values for all lowpan interface to the shared implementation of 6lowpan. This patch also quietly fixes the forgotten IFF_NO_QUEUE flag for the bluetooth 6LoWPAN interface. An identically commit is 4afbc0d ("net: 6lowpan: convert to using IFF_NO_QUEUE") which wasn't changed for bluetooth 6lowpan. All 6lowpan interfaces should be virtual with IFF_NO_QUEUE, using EUI64 address length, the mtu size is 1280 (IPV6_MIN_MTU) and the netdev type is ARPHRD_6LOWPAN.

2015-09-22ieee802154: change needed headroom/tailroomAlexander Aring
This patch cleanups needed_headroom, needed_tailroom and hard_header_len fields for wpan and lowpan interfaces. For wpan interfaces the worst case mac header len should be part of needed_headroom, currently this is set as hard_header_len, but hard_header_len should be set to the minimum header length which xmit call assumes and this is the minimum frame length of 802.15.4. The hard_header_len value will check inside send callbacl of AF_PACKET raw sockets. For lowpan interfaces, if fragmentation isn't needed the skb will call dev_hard_header for 802154 layer and queue it afterwards. This happens without new skb allocation, so we need the same headroom and tailroom lengths like 802154 inside 802154 6lowpan layer. At least we assume as minimum header length an ipv6 header size.

2015-09-17ieee802154: 6lowpan: register packet layer while openAlexander Aring
This patch moves the open count handling while doing open of a lowpan interface. We need the packet handler register at first when one lowpan interface is up. There exists a small case when all lowpan interfaces are down and the 802154 packet layer is still registered. To reduce some overhead we will register the packet layer when the first lowpan interface comes up and unregister when the last interface will become down.

2015-09-17ieee802154: 6lowpan: change dev vars to wdev and ldevAlexander Aring
Inside the IEEE 802.15.4 6LoWPAN subsystem we use two interfaces which are wpan and lowpan interfaces. Instead of using always the variable name "dev" for both we rename the "dev" variable to wdev which means the wpan net_device and ldev which means a lowpan net_device. This avoids confusing and always looking back to see which net_device is meant by the variable name "dev".

This patch fixes 802.15.4 packet layer registration when mutliple lowpan interfaces will be added. We need to register the packet layer at the first lowpan interface and deregister it at the last interface. This done by open_count variable which is protected by rtnl. Additional do a quiet fix by adding dev_put(real_dev) when netdev registration fails, which fix the refcount for the wpan dev.

2015-08-116lowpan: add generic 6lowpan netdev private dataAlexander Aring
This patch introduced the 6lowpan netdev private data struct. We name it lowpan_priv and it's placed at the beginning of netdev private data. All lowpan interfaces should allocate this room at first of netdev private data. 6LoWPAN LL private data can be allocate by additional netdev private data, e.g. dev->priv_size should be "sizeof(struct lowpan_priv) + sizeof(LL_LOWPAN_PRIVATE_DATA)".

2015-08-10ieee802154: 6lowpan: remove multiple lowpan per wpan supportAlexander Aring
We currently supports multiple lowpan interfaces per wpan interface. I never saw any use case into such functionality. We drop this feature now because it's much easier do deal with address changes inside the under laying wpan interface. This patch removes the multiple lowpan interface and adds a lowpan_dev netdev pointer into the wpan_dev, if this pointer isn't null the wpan interface belongs to the assigned lowpan interface.

2015-05-23mac802154: remove mib lockAlexander Aring
This patch removes the mib lock. The new locking mechanism is to protect the mib values with the rtnl lock. Note that this isn't always necessary if we have an interface up the most mib values are readonly (e.g. address settings). With this behaviour we can remove locking in hotpath like frame parsing completely. It depends on context if we need to hold the rtnl lock or not, this makes the callbacks of ieee802154_mlme_ops unnecessary because these callbacks hols always the locks.

2015-03-14ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix ARPHRD to ARPHRD_6LOWPANAlexander Aring
Currently there exists two interface types with ARPHRD_IEEE802154. These are the 802.15.4 interfaces and 802.15.4 6LoWPAN interfaces. This is more a bug because some userspace applications checks on this value like wireshark. This occurs that wireshark will always try to parse a lowpan interface as 802.15.4 frames. With ARPHRD_6LOWPAN wireshark will parse it as IPv6 frames which is correct. Much applications checks on this value to readout the EUI64 mac address which should be the same for ARPHRD_6LOWPAN. BTLE 6LoWPAN and ieee802154 6LoWPAN will share now the same ARPHRD. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
