2012-11-07batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - create DHT helper functionsAntonio Quartulli9-4/+378
Add all the relevant functions in order to manage a Distributed Hash Table over the B.A.T.M.A.N.-adv network. It will later be used to store several ARP entries and implement DAT (Distributed ARP Table) Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-11-07batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add a new debug log levelAntonio Quartulli1-1/+3
A new log level has been added to concentrate messages regarding DAT: ARP snooping, requests, response and DHT related messages. The new log level is named BATADV_DBG_DAT Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-11-07batman-adv: add UNICAST_4ADDR packet typeAntonio Quartulli6-26/+194
The current unicast packet type does not contain the orig source address. This patches add a new unicast packet (called UNICAST_4ADDR) which provides two new fields: the originator source address and the subtype (the type of the data contained in the packet payload). The former is useful to identify the node which injected the packet into the network and the latter is useful to avoid creating new unicast packet types in the future: a macro defining a new subtype will be enough.

2012-11-07batman-adv: Mark correctly aligned headers not as __packedSven Eckelmann1-6/+15
Headers which are already perfectly aligned and create a 4 byte boundary non-ethernet header payload can have the __packed attribute removed. The __packed attribute doesn't change the appeareance of the packet for these headers because no extra padding is necessary to align the data members. The compiler will also create slightly faster code for loads of multi-byte members.

2012-11-07batman-adv: Reserve extra bytes in skb for better alignmentSven Eckelmann4-19/+22
The ethernet header is 14 bytes long. Therefore, the data after it is not 4 byte aligned and may cause problems on systems without unaligned data access.

2012-10-29batman-adv: pass the WIFI flag from the local to global entryAntonio Quartulli2-9/+28
in case of client roaming a new global entry is added while a corresponding local one is still present. In this case the node can safely pass the WIFI flag from the local to the global entry. This change is required to let the AP-isolation correctly working in case of roaming: if a generic WIFI client C roams from node A to B, A adds a global entry for C without adding any WIFI flag. The latter will be set only later, once A has received C's advertisement from B. In this time period the AP-Isolation (if enabled) would not correctly work since C is not marked as WIFI, so allowing it to communicate with other WIFI clients.

2012-10-29batman-adv: properly convert flag into a boolean valueAntonio Quartulli1-1/+1
In order to properly convert a bitwise AND to a boolean value, the whole expression must be prepended by "!!". Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-10-29batman-adv: check for more space before accessing the skbAntonio Quartulli1-2/+6
In batadv_check_unicast_ttvn() the code accesses both the unicast header and the Ethernet header in the payload. For this reason pskb_may_pull() must be invoked to check for the required space. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-10-29batman-adv: print packets re-routing on DBG_TT and ratelimit itAntonio Quartulli1-4/+4
To simplify TranslationTable debugging it is better to print the packet rerouting message on the DBG_TT log level. In this way a developer interested in packets rerouting doesn't need to filter it out of the whole ROUTES log. Moreover, since this message will appear for each rerouted message, it is now "ratelimited". Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-10-29batman-adv: properly store the roaming timeAntonio Quartulli1-0/+6
in case of a new global entry added because of roaming, the roam_at field must be properly initiated with the current time. This value will be later use to purge this entry out on time out (if nobody claims it). Instead roam_at field is now set to zero in this situation leading to an immediate purging of the related entry. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>

2012-10-29batman-adv: Remove extra check in batadv_bit_get_packetSven Eckelmann1-13/+10
batadv_bit_get_packet checks for all common situations before it decides that the new received packet indicates that the host was restarted. This extra condition check at the end of the function is not necessary because this condition is always true.

2012-10-29batman-adv: Set special lockdep classes to avoid lockdep warningSven Eckelmann1-0/+44
Transmissions over batman-adv devices always start another nested transmission over devices attached to the batman-adv interface. These devices usually use the ethernet lockdep class for the tx_queue lock which is also set by default for all batman-adv devices. Lockdep will detect a nested locking attempt of two locks with the same class and warn about a possible deadlock. This is the default and expected behavior and should not alarm the locking correctness prove mechanism. Therefore, the locks for all netdevice specific tx queues get a special batman-adv lock class to avoid a false positive for each transmission.

Threads in the bottom half of batadv_bla_check_bcast_duplist() might otherwise for instance overwrite variables which other threads might be using/reading at the same time in the top half, potentially leading to messing up the bcast_duplist, possibly resulting in false bridge loop avoidance duplicate check decisions.

2012-10-18batman-adv: Fix broadcast packet CRC calculationLinus Lüssing2-5/+11
So far the crc16 checksum for a batman-adv broadcast data packet, received on a batman-adv hard interface, was calculated over zero bytes of its content leading to many incoming broadcast data packets wrongly being dropped (60-80% packet loss). This patch fixes this issue by calculating the crc16 over the actual, complete broadcast payload. The issue is a regression introduced by ("batman-adv: add broadcast duplicate check").

2012-09-23batman-adv: Fix symmetry check / route flapping in multi interface setupsLinus Lüssing1-6/+7
If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one. However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected router. This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups. This patch fixes this issue by using the right interface for this symmetry check. Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@web.de>

2012-09-19batman-adv: make batadv_test_bit() return 0 or 1 onlyLinus Lüssing1-3/+3
On some architectures test_bit() can return other values than 0 or 1: With a generic x86 OpenWrt image in a kvm setup (batadv_)test_bit() frequently returns -1 for me, leading to batadv_iv_ogm_update_seqnos() wrongly signaling a protected seqno window.

2012-08-23batman-adv: change interface_rx to get orig nodeAntonio Quartulli3-7/+14
In order to understand where a broadcast packet is coming from and use this information to detect not yet announced clients, this patch modifies the interface_rx() function by passing a new argument: the orig node corresponding to the node that originated the received packet (if known). This new argument if not NULL for broadcast packets only (other packets does not have source field). Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-08-23batman-adv: detect not yet announced clientsAntonio Quartulli5-33/+101
With the current TT mechanism a new client joining the network is not immediately able to communicate with other hosts because its MAC address has not been announced yet. This situation holds until the first OGM containing its joining event will be spread over the mesh network. This behaviour can be acceptable in networks where the originator interval is a small value (e.g. 1sec) but if that value is set to an higher time (e.g. 5secs) the client could suffer from several malfunctions like DHCP client timeouts, etc. This patch adds an early detection mechanism that makes nodes in the network able to recognise "not yet announced clients" by means of the broadcast packets they emitted on connection (e.g. ARP or DHCP request). The added client will then be confirmed upon receiving the OGM claiming it or purged if such OGM is not received within a fixed amount of time. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>

2012-08-23batman-adv: Split batadv_priv in sub-structures for featuresSven Eckelmann10-311/+343
The structure batadv_priv grows everytime a new feature is introduced. It gets hard to find the parts of the struct that belongs to a specific feature. This becomes even harder by the fact that not every feature uses a prefix in the member name.

2012-08-23batman-adv: check batadv_orig_hash_add_if() return codeSimon Wunderlich1-1/+7
If this call fails, some of the orig_nodes spaces may have been resized for the increased number of interface, and some may not. If we would just continue with the larger number of interfaces, this would lead to access to not allocated memory later. We better check the return code, and don't add the interface if no memory is available. OTOH, keeping some of the orig_nodes with too much memory allocated should hurt no one (except for a few too many bytes allocated).

2012-07-06batman-adv: check incoming packet type for blaSimon Wunderlich3-7/+19
If the gateway functionality is used, some broadcast packets (DHCP requests) may be transmitted as unicast packets. As the bridge loop avoidance code now only considers the payload Ethernet destination, it may drop the DHCP request for clients which are claimed by other backbone gateways, because it falsely infers from the broadcast address that the right backbone gateway should havehandled the broadcast. Fix this by checking and delegating the batman-adv packet type used for transmission.
