pull request for net-next: batman-adv 2016-08-16
This feature patchset is all about adding netlink support, which should
supersede our debugfs configuration interface in the long run. It is
especially necessary when batman-adv should be used in different
namespaces, since debugfs can not differentiate between those.
More specifically, the following changes are included:
- Two fixes for namespace handling by Andrew Lunn, checking also the
namespaces for parent interfaces, and supress debugfs entries
for non-default netns
- Implement various netlink commands for the new interface, by
Matthias Schiffer, Andrew Lunn, Sven Eckelmann and Simon Wunderlich
(13 patches):
* routing algorithm list
* hardif list
* translation tables (local and global)
* TTVN for the translation tables
* originator and neighbor tables for B.A.T.M.A.N. IV
and B.A.T.M.A.N. V
* gateway dump functionality for B.A.T.M.A.N. IV
and B.A.T.M.A.N. V
* Bridge Loop Avoidance claims, and corresponding BLA group
* Bridge Loop Avoidance backbone tables
- Finally, mark batman-adv as netns compatible, by Andrew Lunn (1 patch)

If net namespace is attached to a user namespace let's make container's
root owner of sysctls affecting said network namespace instead of global
root.
This also allows us to clean up net_ctl_permissions() because we do not
need to fudge permissions anymore for the container's owner since it now
owns the objects in question.

When CONFIG_NET_NS is disabled, registering pernet operations causes
init() to be called immediately with init_net as an argument. Unfortunately
this leads to some pernet ops, such as proc_net_ns_init() to be called too
early, when init_net namespace has not been fully initialized. This causes
issues when we want to change pernet ops to use more data from the net
namespace in question, for example reference user namespace that owns our
network namespace.
To fix this we could either play game of musical chairs and rearrange init
order, or we could do the same as when CONFIG_NET_NS is enabled, and
postpone calling pernet ops->init() until namespace is set up properly.
Note that we can not simply undo commit ed160e839d2e ("[NET]: Cleanup
pernet operation without CONFIG_NET_NS") and use the same implementations
for __register_pernet_operations() and __unregister_pernet_operations(),
because many pernet ops are marked as __net_initdata and will be discarded,
which wreaks havoc on our ops lists. Here we rely on the fact that we only
use lists until init_net is fully initialized, which happens much earlier
than discarding __net_initdata sections.

Depending on which method the driver implements, userspace could
call this (indirectly, by getting station info) before the driver
knows about the station, possibly causing it to misbehave.
Therefore, add a check for sta->uploaded which indicates that the
driver knows about the station.

This change alters the semantics of NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE events
by always sending this event whenever a net_device object associated
with a wdev is destroyed. Prior to this change, this event was only
emitted as a result of NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE command sent from
userspace. This allows userspace to reliably detect when wireless
interfaces have been removed, e.g. due to USB removal events, etc.
For wireless device objects without an associated net_device (e.g.
NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_DEVICE), the NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE event is
now generated inside cfg80211_unregister_wdev.

This change alters the semantics of NL80211_CMD_NEW_INTERFACE events
by always sending this event whenever a new net_device object

was only sent as a result of NL80211_CMD_NEW_INTERFACE command sent

interfaces (e.g. due to hardware hot-plug events, etc).
For wdevs created without an associated net_device object (e.g.
NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_DEVICE), the NL80211_CMD_NEW_INTERFACE event is
still generated inside the relevant nl80211 command handler.

The PPTP is encapsulated by GRE header with that GRE_VERSION bits
must contain one. But current GRE RPS needs the GRE_VERSION must be
zero. So RPS does not work for PPTP traffic.
In my test environment, there are four MIPS cores, and all traffic
are passed through by PPTP. As a result, only one core is 100% busy
while other three cores are very idle. After this patch, the usage
of four cores are balanced well.

Convert the per-device linked list into a hashtable. The primary
motivation for this change is that currently, we're not tracking all the
qdiscs in hierarchy (e.g. excluding default qdiscs), as the lookup
performed over the linked list by qdisc_match_from_root() is rather
expensive.
The ultimate goal is to get rid of hidden qdiscs completely, which will
bring much more determinism in user experience.

2647cffb2bc6 ("net: ipconfig: Support using "delayed" DHCP replies")
the active device's ic_device is still used however to print the

Debugfs is not netns aware. It thus has problems when the same
interface name exists in multiple network name spaces.
Work around this by not creating entries for interfaces in name spaces
other than the default name space. This means meshes in network

netlink interface which is netns aware.

batman-adv tries to prevent the user from placing a batX soft
interface into another batman mesh as a hard interface. It does this
by walking up the devices list of parents and ensures they are all
none batX interfaces. iflink can point to an interface in a different
namespace, so also retrieve the parents name space when finding the
parent and use it when doing the comparison.

The translation table (global, local) is usually the part of batman-adv
which has the most dynamical allocated objects. Most of them
(tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry, tt_orig_list_entry, tt_change_node,
tt_req_node, tt_roam_node) are equally sized. So it makes sense to have
them allocated from a kmem_cache for each type.
This approach allowed a small wireless router (TP-Link TL-841NDv8; SLUB
allocator) to store 34% more translation table entries compared to the
current implementation.

The B.A.T.M.A.N. V algorithm uses a different metric compared to its
predecessor and for this reason the logic used to compute the best
Gateway is also changed. This means that the GW selection class
fed to this logic has a semantics that depends on the algorithm being
used.
Make the parsing and printing routine of the GW selection class
routing algorithm specific. Each algorithm can now parse (and print)
this value independently.
If no API is provided by any algorithm, the default is to use the
current mechanism of considering such value like an integer between
1 and 255.

The kobject_put is only removing the sysfs entry and corresponding entries
when its reference counter becomes zero. This tends to lead to collisions
when a device is moved between two different network namespaces because
some of the sysfs files have to be removed first and then added again to
the already moved sysfs entry.

kobject_add_internal failed for batman_adv with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory.
But the caller of kobject_put can already remove the sysfs entry before it
does the kobject_put. This removal is done even when the reference counter
is not yet zero and thus avoids the problem.

The legacy sysfs interface to modify interfaces belonging to batman-adv
is run inside a region holding s_lock. And to add a net_device, it has
to also get the rtnl_lock. This is exactly the other way around than in
other virtual net_devices and conflicts with netdevice notifier which
executes inside rtnl_lock.
The inverted lock situation is currently solved by executing the removal
of netdevices via workqueue. The workqueue isn't executed inside
rtnl_lock and thus can independently get the s_lock and the rtnl_lock.
But this workaround fails when the netdevice notifier creates events in
quick succession and the earlier triggered removal of a net_device isn't
processed in the workqueue before the adding of the new netdevice (with
same name) event is issued.
Instead the legacy sysfs interface store events have to be enqueued in
a workqueue to loose the s_lock. The worker is then free to get the
required locks and the deadlock is avoided.
