spin_lock_irqsave disables the IRQs and stores them inside the flags provided by the caller. This is needed to protect a bottom half handler or a user context critical section from being interrupted by an interrupt handler which also tries to acquire the spinlock and locks forever. The linux device drivers will receive the packets inside an interrupt handler and the network infrastructure will process them inside bottom half. Thus batman-adv will only run in user context and bottom half handlers. We can conclude that batman-adv doesn't share its own spinlocks with real interrupt handlers. This makes it possible to exchange the quite complex spin_lock_irqsave with spin_lock_bh which only stops bottom halves from running on the current cpu, but allows interrupt handlers to take over to keep the interrupt latency low.

The hash implementation is a complete implementation of a hash using buckets as hash entries and overflow buckets attached to them. The kernel already provides datastructures hlist_head and hlist_node which can be used to implement an hash using lists as hash buckets. So it is better to implement heavily used functionality on top of those instead of providing a full hash implementation. The rewrite changes the behavior of some functions slightly: * hash_add add elements to the front instead of the tail * hash_iterate doesn't provide pointer to access bucket->data directly, but it can be accessed using hlist_entry Reported-by: NDavid S.

By connecting multiple batman-adv mesh nodes to the same ethernet segment a loop can be created when the soft-interface is bridged into that ethernet segment. A simple visualization of the loop involving the most common case - a LAN as ethernet segment: node1 <-- LAN --> node2 | | wifi <-- mesh --> wifi Packets from the LAN (e.g. ARP broadcasts) will circle forever from node1 or node2 over the mesh back into the LAN. This patch adds the functionality to detect other batman-adv nodes connected to the LAN and select a 'gateway' to talk to the non-batman-adv devices on this LAN. All traffic from and to the mesh will be handled by this gateway to avoid the loop. OGMs received via the soft-interface are interpreted as 'port announcements' to locate potential batman-adv nodes. The patch can also deal with vlans on top of batX and offers a list of LAN neighbors via debugfs.

This patch implements a simple layer2 fragmentation to allow traffic exchange over network interfaces with a MTU smaller than 1500 bytes. The fragmentation splits the big packets into two parts and marks the frames accordingly. The receiving end buffers the packets to reassemble the orignal packet before passing it to the higher layers. This feature makes it necessary to modify the batman-adv encapsulation for unicast packets by adding a sequence number, flags and the originator address. This modifcation is part of a seperate packet type for fragemented packets to keep the original overhead as low as possible. This patch enables the feature by default to ensure the data traffic can travel through the network. But it also prints a warning to notify the user about the performance implications. Note: Fragmentation should be avoided at all costs since it has a dramatic impact on the performance, especially when it comes wifi networks. Instead of a single packet, 2 packets have to be sent! Not only valuable airtime is wasted but also packetloss decreases the throughput. A link with 50% packetloss and fragmentation enabled is pretty much unusable.

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.

BATMAN and broadcast packets are tracked with a sequence number window of currently 64 entries to measure and avoid duplicates. Packets which have a sequence number smaller than the newest received packet minus 64 are not within this sequence number window anymore and are called "old packets" from now on. When old packets are received, the routing code assumes that the host of the originator has been restarted. This assumption however might be wrong as packets can also be delayed by NIC drivers, e.g. because of long queues or collision detection in dense WiFi? environments. This behaviour can be reproduced by doing a broadcast ping flood in a dense node environment. The effect is that the sequence number window is jumping forth and back, accepting and forwarding any packet (because packets are assumed to be "new") and causing loops. To overcome this problem, the sequence number handling has been reorganized. When an old packet is received, the window is reset back only once. Other old packets are dropped for (currently) 30 seconds to "protect" the new sequence number and avoid the hopping as described above. The reorganization brings some code cleanups (at least i hope you feel the same) and also fixes a bug in count_real_packets() which falsely updated the last_real_seqno for slightly older packets within the seqno window if they are no duplicates. This second version of the patch also fixes a problem where for seq_diff==64 bit_shift() reads from outside of the seqno window, and removes the loop for seq_diff == -64 which was present in the first patch. The third iteration also adds a window for the next expected sequence numbers. This minimizes sequence number flapping for packets with very big differences (e.g. 3 packets with seqno 0, 25000 and 50000 might still cause problems without this window).

Instead of having a single /proc file "interfaces" in which you have to echo the wanted interface batman-adv will create a subfolder in each suitable /sys/class/net folder. This subfolder contains files for the interface specific settings. For example, mesh_iface to add/remove an interface from a virtual mesh network (at the moment only bat0 is supported). Example: echo bat0 > /sys/class/net/eth0/batman-adv/mesh_iface to deactivate: echo none > /sys/class/net/eth0/batman-adv/mesh_iface Interfaces which are not compatible with batman-adv won't contain the batman-adv folder, therefore can't be activated.

This patch removes the (ugly and racy) packet receiving thread and the kernel socket usage. Instead, packets are received directly by registering the ethernet type and handling skbs instead of self-allocated buffers. Some consequences and comments: * we don't copy the payload data when forwarding/sending/receiving data anymore. This should boost performance. * packets from/to different interfaces can be (theoretically) processed simultaneously. Only the big originator hash lock might be in the way. * no more polling or sleeping/wakeup/scheduling issues when receiving packets * this might introduce new race conditions. * aggregation and vis code still use packet buffers and are not (yet) converted. * all spinlocks were converted to irqsave/restore versions to solve some lifelock issues when preempted. This might be overkill, some of these locks might be reverted later. * skb copies are only done if neccesary to avoid overhead performance differences: * we made some "benchmarks" with intel laptops. * bandwidth on Gigabit Ethernet increased from ~500 MBit/s to ~920 MBit/s * ping latency decresed from ~2ms to ~0.2 ms I did some tests on my 9 node qemu environment and could confirm that usual sending/receiving, forwarding, vis, batctl ping etc works.
