hardif_list_lock is unneccessary because we already ensure that no multiple admin operations can take place through rtnl_lock. hardif_list_lock only adds additional overhead and complexity. Critical functions now check whether they are called with rtnl_lock using ASSERT_RTNL. It indirectly fixes the problem that orig_hash_del_if() expects that only one interface is deleted from hardif_list at a time, but hardif_remove_interfaces() removes all at once and then calls orig_hash_del_if().

The bridge loop detection for batman-adv allows the bat0 interface to be bridged into an ethernet segment which other batman-adv nodes are connected to. In order to also allow multiple VLANs on top of the bat0 interface to be bridged into the ethernet segment this patch extends the aforementioned bridge loop detection.

Like other virtual interfaces, e.g. br0, we don't need a transmit queue. Packets should only be queued on real interfaces which are underneath.

When printing the soft interface table the number of entries in the softif neigh list are first being counted and a fitting buffer allocated. After that the softif neigh list gets locked again and the buffer printed - which has the following two issues: For one thing, the softif neigh list might have grown when reacquiring the rcu lock, which results in writing outside of the allocated buffer. Furthermore 31 Bytes are not enough for printing an entry with a vid of more than 2 digits. The manual buffering is unnecessary, we can safely print to the seq directly during the rcu_read_lock().

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.

When having a mixed topology of both very mobile and rather static nodes, you are usually best advised to set the originator interval on all nodes to a level best suited for the most mobile node. However, if most of the nodes are rather static, this can create a lot of undesired overhead as a trade-off then. If setting the interval too low on the static nodes, a mobile node might be chosen as a router for too long, not switching away from it fast enough because of its mobility and the low frequency of ogms of static nodes. Exposing the hop_penalty is especially useful for the stated scenario: A static node can keep the default originator interval, a mobile node can select a quicker one resulting in faster route updates towards this mobile node. Additionally, such a mobile node could select a higher hop penalty (or even set it to 255 to disable acting as a router for other nodes) to make it less desirable, letting other nodes avoid selecting this mobile node as a router.

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.

my_skb_push provided an easy way to allocate enough headroom in situation were we don't have enough space left and move the data pointer to the new position, but we didn't checked wether we are allowed to write to the new pushed header. This is for example a problem when the skb was cloned and thus doesn't have a private data part. my_skb_head_push now replaces my_skb_push by using skb_cow_head to provide only a large enough, writable header without testing for the rest of the (maybe shared) data. It will also move the data pointer using skb_push when skb_cow_head doesn't fail. This should give us enough flexibility in situation were skbs will be queued by underlying layers and still doesn't unnecessarily copy the data in situations when the skb was consumed right away during dev_queue_xmit.

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.

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.
