      batman-adv: Send multicast packets to nodes with a WANT_ALL flag · 4c8755d6
      Linus Lüssing 提交于
      With this patch a node sends IPv4 multicast packets to nodes which
      have a BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_IPV4 flag set and IPv6 multicast packets
      to nodes which have a BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_IPV6 flag set, too.
      
      Why is this needed? There are scenarios involving bridges where
      multicast report snooping and multicast TT announcements are not
      sufficient, which would lead to packet loss for some nodes otherwise:
      
      MLDv1 and IGMPv1/IGMPv2 have a suppression mechanism
      for multicast listener reports. When we have an MLDv1/IGMPv1/IGMPv2
      querier behind a bridge then our snooping bridge is potentially not
      going to see any reports even though listeners exist because according
      to RFC4541 such reports are only forwarded to multicast routers:
      
      -----------------------------------------------------------
                  ---------------
      {Querier}---|Snoop. Switch|----{Listener}
                  ---------------
                             \           ^
                            -------
                            | br0 |  <  ???
                            -------
                                \
                           _-~---~_
                       _-~/        ~-_
                      ~   batman-adv  \-----{Sender}
                      \~_   cloud    ~/
                         -~~__-__-~_/
      
      I)  MLDv1 Query:  {Querier}  -> flooded
      II) MLDv1 Report: {Listener} -> {Querier}
      
      -> br0 cannot detect the {Listener}
      => Packets from {Sender} need to be forwarded to all
         detected listeners and MLDv1/IGMPv1/IGMPv2 queriers.
      
      -----------------------------------------------------------
      
      Note that we do not need to explicitly forward to MLDv2/IGMPv3 queriers,
      because these protocols have no report suppression: A bridge has no
      trouble detecting MLDv2/IGMPv3 listeners.
      
      Even though we do not support bridges yet we need to provide the
      according infrastructure already to not break compatibility later.

      batman-adv: Add IPv4 link-local/IPv6-ll-all-nodes multicast support · ab49886e
      Linus Lüssing 提交于
      With this patch a node may additionally perform the dropping or
      unicasting behaviour for a link-local IPv4 and link-local-all-nodes
      IPv6 multicast packet, too.
      
      The extra counter and BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_UNSNOOPABLES flag is needed
      because with a future bridge snooping support integration a node with a
      bridge on top of its soft interface is not able to reliably detect its
      multicast listeners for IPv4 link-local and the IPv6
      link-local-all-nodes addresses anymore (see RFC4541, section 2.1.2.2
      and section 3).
      
      Even though this new flag does make "no difference" now, it'll ensure
      a seamless integration of multicast bridge support without needing to
      break compatibility later.
      
      Also note, that even with multicast bridge support it won't be possible
      to optimize 224.0.0.x and ff02::1 towards nodes with bridges, they will
      always receive these ranges.

      batman-adv: Modified forwarding behaviour for multicast packets · 1d8ab8d3
      Linus Lüssing 提交于
      With this patch a multicast packet is not always simply flooded anymore,
      the behaviour for the following cases is changed to reduce
      unnecessary overhead:
      
      If all nodes within the horizon of a certain node have signalized
      multicast listener announcement capability then an IPv6 multicast packet
      with a destination of IPv6 link-local scope (excluding ff02::1) coming
      from the upstream of this node...
      
      * ...is dropped if there is no according multicast listener in the
        translation table,
      * ...is forwarded via unicast if there is a single node with interested
        multicast listeners
      * ...and otherwise still gets flooded.

      batman-adv: Announce new capability via multicast TVLV · 60432d75
      Linus Lüssing 提交于
      If the soft interface of a node is not part of a bridge then a node
      announces a new multicast TVLV: The existence of this TVLV
      signalizes that this node is announcing all of its multicast listeners
      via the translation table infrastructure.
