| * batman-adv: fix batman-adv header overhead calculationMarek Lindner2014-01-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Batman-adv prepends a full ethernet header in addition to its own header. This has to be reflected in the MTU calculation, especially since the value is used to set dev->hard_header_len.

* | batman-adv: consider outgoing interface in OGM sendingSimon Wunderlich2014-01-123-64/+115
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current OGM sending an aggregation functionality decides on which interfaces a packet should be sent when it parses the forward packet struct. However, with the network wide multi interface optimization the outgoing interface is decided by the OGM processing function. This is reflected by moving the decision in the OGM processing function and add the outgoing interface in the forwarding packet struct. This practically implies that an OGM may be added multiple times (once per outgoing interface), and this also affects aggregation which needs to consider the outgoing interface as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the same interface is used for sending and receiving, there might be throughput degradation on half-duplex interfaces such as WiFi. Add a penalty if the same interface is used to reflect this problem in the metric. At the same time, change the hop penalty from 30 to 15 so there will be no change for single wifi mesh network. the effective hop penalty will stay at 30 due to the new wifi penalty for these networks.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the network wide multi interface optimization there are different routers for each outgoing interface (outgoing from the OGM perspective, incoming for payload traffic).

Therefore a new type is introduced to keep interface-specific information. This also requires some changes in access and list management.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A client sending packets which mark matches the value configured via sysfs has to be identified as isolated using the TT_CLIENT_ISOLA flag. The match is mask based, meaning that only bits set in the mask are compared with those in the mark value. If the configured mask is equal to 0 no operation is performed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This attribute can be used to set and read the value and the mask of the skb mark which will be used to classify the source non-mesh client as ISOLATED. In this way a client can be advertised as such and the mark can potentially be restored at the receiving node before delivering the skb. This can be helpful for creating network wide netfilter policies. This sysfs file expects a string of the shape "$mark/$mask". Where $mark has to be a 32-bit number in any base, while $mask must be a 32bit mask expressed in hex base. Only bits in $mark covered by the bitmask are really stored.

* | batman-adv: send every DHCP packet as bat-unicastAntonio Quartulli2014-01-087-140/+153
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In different situations it is possible that the DHCP server or client uses broadcast Ethernet frames to send messages to each other. The GW component in batman-adv takes care of using bat-unicast packets to bring broadcast DHCP Discover/Requests to the "best" server. On the way back the DHCP server usually sends unicasts, but upon client request it may decide to use broadcasts as well. This patch improves the GW component so that it now snoops and sends as unicast all the DHCP packets, no matter if they were generated by a DHCP server or client.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If an interface enslaved into batman-adv is a bridge (or a virtual interface built on top of a bridge) the nf_bridge member of the skbs reaching the soft-interface is filled with the state about "netfilter bridge" operations. Then, if one of such skbs is locally delivered, the nf_bridge member should be cleaned up to avoid that the old state could mess up with other "netfilter bridge" operations when entering a second bridge. This is needed because batman-adv is an encapsulation protocol. However at the moment skb->nf_bridge is not released at all leading to bogus "netfilter bridge" behaviours. Fix this by cleaning the netfilter state of the skb before it gets delivered to the upper layer in interface_rx().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Flags covered by TT_SYNC_MASK are kept in sync among the nodes in the network and therefore they have to be considered while computing the global/local table CRC. In this way a generic originator is able to understand if its table contains the correct flags or not. Bits from 4 to 7 in the TT flags fields are now reserved for "synchronized" flags only. This allows future developers to add more flags of this type without breaking compatibility. It's important to note that not all the remote TT flags are synchronised. This comes from the fact that some flags are used to inject an information once only.

* batman-adv: limit local translation table max sizeMarek Lindner2013-10-235-36/+173
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The local translation table size is limited by what can be transferred from one node to another via a full table request. The number of entries fitting into a full table request depend on whether the fragmentation is enabled or not. Therefore this patch introduces a max table size check and refuses to add more local clients when that size is reached. Moreover, if the max full table packet size changes (MTU change or fragmentation is disabled) the local table is downsized instantaneously.
