The batman-adv codebase is using "list" for the list node (prev/next) and <list content descriptor>+"_list" for the head of a list.

2016-08-09batman-adv: Allow to disable debugfs supportSven Eckelmann1-0/+2
The files provided by batman-adv via debugfs are currently converted to netlink. Tools which are not yet converted to use the netlink interface may still rely on the old debugfs files. But systems which already upgraded their tools can save some space by disabling this feature. The default configuration of batman-adv on amd64 can reduce the size of the module by around 11% when this feature is disabled. $ size net/batman-adv/batman-adv.ko* text data bss dec hex filename 150507 10395 4160 165062 284c6 net/batman-adv/batman-adv.ko.y 137106 7099 2112 146317 23b8d net/batman-adv/batman-adv.ko.n Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <mareklindner@neomailbox.ch> Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de>

It is hard to understand why the refcnt is increased when it isn't done near the actual place the new reference is used. So using kref_get right before the place which requires the reference and in the same function helps to avoid accidental problems caused by incorrect reference counting.

2016-02-16batman-adv: Only put gw_node list reference when removedSven Eckelmann1-3/+4
The batadv_gw_node reference counter in batadv_gw_node_update can only be reduced when the list entry was actually removed. Otherwise the reference counter may reach zero when batadv_gw_node_update is called from two different contexts for the same gw_node but only one context is actually removing the entry from the list. The release function for this gw_node is not called inside the list_lock spinlock protected region because the function batadv_gw_node_update still holds a gw_node reference for the object pointer on the stack. Thus the actual release function (when required) will be called only at the end of the function.

2015-08-11batman-adv: Avoid u32 overflow during gateway selectRuben Wisniewski1-1/+1
The gateway selection based on fast connections is using a single value calculated from the average tq (0-255) and the download bandwidth (in 100Kibit). The formula for the first step (tq ** 2 * 10000 * bandwidth) tends to overflow a u32 with low bandwidth settings like 50 [100KiBit] and a tq value of over 92. Changing this to a 64 bit unsigned integer allows to support a bandwidth_down with up to ~2.8e10 [100KiBit] and a perfect tq of 255. This is ~6.6 times higher than the maximum possible value of the gateway announcement TVLV. This problem only affects the non-default gw_sel_class 1.

2015-08-11batman-adv: Replace gw_reselect divisor with simple shiftSven Eckelmann1-5/+1
The gw_factor is divided by BATADV_TQ_LOCAL_WINDOW_SIZE ** 2 * 64. But the rest of the calculation has nothing to do with the tq window size and therefore the calculation is just (tmp_gw_factor / (64 ** 3)). Replace it with a simple shift to avoid a costly 64-bit divide when the max_gw_factor is changed from u32 to u64. This type change is necessary to avoid an overflow bug.

2015-08-05batman-adv: initialize up/down values when adding a gatewaySimon Wunderlich1-0/+2
Without this initialization, gateways which actually announce up/down bandwidth of 0/0 could be added. If these nodes get purged via _batadv_purge_orig() later, the gw_node structure does not get removed since batadv_gw_node_delete() updates the gw_node with up/down bandwidth of 0/0, and the updating function then discards the change and does not free gw_node. This results in leaking the gw_node structures, which references other structures: gw_node -> orig_node -> orig_node_ifinfo -> hardif. When removing the interface later, the open reference on the hardif may cause hangs with the infamous "unregister_netdevice: waiting for mesh1 to become free. Usage count = 1" message.

2015-06-07batman-adv: Add required includes to all filesSven Eckelmann1-7/+27
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.

Gateway having bandwidth_down equal to zero are not accepted at all and so never added to the Gateway list. For this reason checking the bandwidth_down member in batadv_gw_out_of_range() is useless. This is probably a copy/paste error and this check was supposed to be "!gw_node" only. Moreover, the way the check is written now may also lead to a NULL dereference.

2014-01-08batman-adv: send every DHCP packet as bat-unicastAntonio Quartulli1-95/+76
In different situations it is possible that the DHCP server or client uses broadcast Ethernet frames to send messages to each other. The GW component in batman-adv takes care of using bat-unicast packets to bring broadcast DHCP Discover/Requests to the "best" server. On the way back the DHCP server usually sends unicasts, but upon client request it may decide to use broadcasts as well. This patch improves the GW component so that it now snoops and sends as unicast all the DHCP packets, no matter if they were generated by a DHCP server or client.
