2019-05-25batman-adv: Use includes instead of fwdeclsSven Eckelmann1-5/+4
While it can be slightly beneficial for the build performance to use forward declarations instead of includes, the handling of them together with changes in the included headers makes it unnecessary complicated and fragile. Just replace them with actual includes since some parts (hwmon, ..) of the kernel even request avoidance of forward declarations and net/ is mostly not using them in *.c file.

2019-03-25batman-adv: Make sysfs support optionalSven Eckelmann1-0/+2
The sysfs files will be marked as deprecated in the near future. They are already replaced by the batadv generic netlink family. Add an Kconfig option to disable the sysfs support for users who want to test their tools or want to safe some space. This setting should currently still be enabled by default to keep backward compatible with legacy tools.

2018-11-12batman-adv: Add inconsistent hardif netlink dump detectionSven Eckelmann1-0/+1
The netlink dump functionality transfers a large number of entries from the kernel to userspace. It is rather likely that the transfer has to interrupted and later continued. During that time, it can happen that either new entries are added or removed. The userspace could than either receive some entries multiple times or miss entries. Commit 670dc2833d14 ("netlink: advertise incomplete dumps") introduced a mechanism to inform userspace about this problem. Userspace can then decide whether it is necessary or not to retry dumping the information again. The netlink dump functions have to be switched to exclusive locks to avoid changes while the current message is prepared. And an external generation sequence counter is introduced which tracks all modifications of the list.

2017-12-21batman-adv: Convert packet.h to uapi headerSven Eckelmann1-1/+1
The header file is used by different userspace programs to inject packets or to decode sniffed packets. It should therefore be available to them as userspace header. Also other components in the kernel (like the flow dissector) require access to the packet definitions to be able to decode ETH_P_BATMAN ethernet packets.

2017-12-15batman-adv: Add SPDX license identifier above copyright headerSven Eckelmann1-0/+1
The "Linux kernel licensing rules" require that each file has a SPDX license identifier as first line (and sometimes as second line). The FSFE REUSE practices [1] would also require the same tags but have no restrictions on the placement in the source file. Using the "Linux kernel licensing rules" is therefore also fulfilling the FSFE REUSE practices requirements at the same time.

2017-05-23batman-adv: decrease maximum fragment sizeMatthias Schiffer1-1/+1
With this patch the maximum fragment size is reduced from 1400 to 1280 bytes. Fragmentation v2 correctly uses the smaller of 1400 and the interface MTU, thus generally supporting interfaces with an MTU < 1400 bytes, too. However, currently "Fragmentation v2" does not support re-fragmentation. Which means that once a packet is split into two packets of 1400 + x bytes for instance and the next hop provides an interface with an even smaller MTU of 1280 bytes, then the larger fragment is lost. A maximum fragment size of 1280 bytes is a safer option as this is the minimum MTU required by IPv6, making interfaces with an MTU < 1280 rather exotic. Regarding performance, this should have no negative impact on unicast traffic: Having some more bytes in the smaller and some less in the larger does not change the sum of both fragments. Concerning TT, choosing 1280 bytes fragments might result in more TT messages than necessary when a large network is bridged into batman-adv. However, the TT overhead in general is marginal due to its reactive nature, therefore such a performance impact on TT should not be noticeable for a user.

2016-10-30batman-adv: Use own timer for multicast TT and TVLV updatesLinus Lüssing1-0/+1
Instead of latching onto the OGM period, this patch introduces a worker dedicated to multicast TT and TVLV updates. The reasoning is, that upon roaming especially the translation table should be updated timely to minimize connectivity issues. With BATMAN V, the idea is to greatly increase the OGM interval to reduce overhead. Unfortunately, right now this could lead to a bad user experience if multicast traffic is involved. Therefore this patch introduces a fixed 500ms update interval for multicast TT entries and the multicast TVLV.

2016-07-04batman-adv: throughput meter implementationAntonio Quartulli1-0/+8
The throughput meter module is a simple, kernel-space replacement for throughtput measurements tool like iperf and netperf. It is intended to approximate TCP behaviour. It is invoked through batctl: the protocol is connection oriented, with cumulative acknowledgment and a dynamic-size sliding window. The test *can* be interrupted by batctl. A receiver side timeout avoids unlimited waitings for sender packets: after one second of inactivity, the receiver abort the ongoing test.

2016-05-10batman-adv: add detection for complex bridge loopsSimon Wunderlich1-0/+4
There are network setups where the current bridge loop avoidance can't detect bridge loops. The minimal setup affected would consist of two LANs and two separate meshes, connected in a ring like that: A...(mesh1)...B | | (LAN1) (LAN2) | | C...(mesh2)...D Since both the meshes and backbones are separate, the bridge loop avoidance has not enough information to detect and avoid the loop in this case. Even if these scenarios can't be fixed easily, these kind of loops can be detected. This patch implements a periodic check (running every 60 seconds for now) which sends a broadcast frame with a random MAC address on each backbone VLAN. If a broadcast frame with the same MAC address is received shortly after on the mesh, we know that there must be a loop and report that incident as well as throw an uevent to let others handle that problem.
