      Staging: batman-adv: bonding and interface alternating · 11f79dec
      Simon Wunderlich 提交于
      This patch adds interface alternating to the new bonding feature. By
      default, we now try to avoid forwarding packets on the receiving
      interface, instead choosing alternative interfaces. This feature
      works only on nodes which have multiple interfaces connected to the
      mesh. This approach should reduce problems of the half-duplex nature
      of WiFi Hardware and thus increase performance.

      Staging: batman-adv: Add bonding functionality · e35fd5ec
      Simon Wunderlich 提交于
      This patch introduces bonding functionality to batman-advanced, targeted
      for the 0.3 release. As we are able to route the payload traffic as we
      want, we may use multiple interfaces on multihomed hosts to transfer data
      to achieve higher bandwidth. This can be considered as "light Multi Path
      Routing" for single hop connections.
      
      To detect which interfaces of a peer node belong to the same host, a
      new flag PRIMARIES_FIRST_HOP is introduced. This flag is set on the first hop
      of OGMs of the primary (first) interface, which is broadcasted on all
      interfaces. When receiving such an OGM, we can learn which interfaces
      belong to the same host (by assigning them to the primary originator).
      
      Bonding works by sending packets in a round-robin fashion to the available
      interfaces of a neighbor host, if multiple interfaces are available. The
      neighbor interfaces should be almost equally good to reach.
      
      To avoid interferences (i.e. sending on the same channel), only neighbor
      interfaces with different mac addresses and different outgoing interfaces
      are considered as candidates.
      
      Bonding is deactivated by default, and can be activated by
      
      echo 1 > /sys/class/net/bat0/mesh/bonding
      
      for each individual node.

      Staging: batman-adv: 32bit sequence number and TTL for broadcasts · cf2d72ec
      Simon Wunderlich 提交于
      This patch changes the sequence number range from 8 or 16 bit to 32 bit.
      This should avoid problems with the sequence number sliding window algorithm
      which we had seen in the past for broadcast floods or malicious packet
      injections. We can not assure 100% security with this patch, but it is quite
      an improvement over the old 16 bit sequence numbers:
      
       * expected window size can be increased (4096 -> 65536)
       * 64k packets in the right order would now be needed to cause a loop,
         which seems practically impossible.
      
      Furthermore, a TTL field has been added to the broadcast packet type, just to
      make sure.
      
      These changes required to increase the compatibility level once again.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.
