* batman-adv: Remove bat_ prefix from bat_{debugfs, sysfs}.{c, h}Sven Eckelmann2012-07-011-787/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | The "bat_" prefix in the source files implementing the batman-adv sysfs and debugfs interface doesn't have a special meaning and are only used by these files and files that implement the actual B.A.T.M.A.N. path finding algorithm. The prefix is better suited to mark files that are used to implement the main part of the path finding. All other files should not use it and therefore gets renamed.

* batman-adv: Adding hard_iface specific sysfs wrapper macros for UINTLinus Luessing2012-05-111-0/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows us to easily add a sysfs parameter for an unsigned int later, which is not for a batman mesh interface (e.g. bat0), but for a common interface instead. It allows reading and writing an atomic_t in hard_iface (instead of bat_priv compared to the mesh variant). Developed by Linus during a 6 months trainee study period in Ascom (Switzerland) AG.

* batman-adv: add basic bridge loop avoidance codeSimon Wunderlich2012-04-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This second version of the bridge loop avoidance for batman-adv avoids loops between the mesh and a backbone (usually a LAN). 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. With this patch, batman recognizes backbone gateways, nodes which are part of the mesh and backbone/LAN at the same time. Each backbone gateway "claims" clients from within the mesh to handle them exclusively. By restricting that only responsible backbone gateways may handle their claimed clients traffic, loops are effectively avoided.

* batman-adv: add wrapper function to throw uevent in userspaceAntonio Quartulli2011-06-201-0/+71
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using throw_uevent() is now possible to trigger uevent signal that can be recognised in userspace. Uevents will be triggered through the /devices/virtual/net/{MESH_IFACE} kobject. A triggered uevent has three properties: - type: the event class. Who generates the event (only 'gw' is currently defined). Corresponds to the BATTYPE uevent variable. - action: the associated action with the event ('add'/'change'/'del' are currently defined). Corresponds to the BATACTION uevent variable. - data: any useful data for the userspace. Corresponds to the BATDATA uevent variable.

* batman-adv: improved client announcement mechanismAntonio Quartulli2011-06-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The client announcement mechanism informs every mesh node in the network of any connected non-mesh client, in order to find the path towards that client from any given point in the mesh. The old implementation was based on the simple idea of appending a data buffer to each OGM containing all the client MAC addresses the node is serving. All other nodes can populate their global translation tables (table which links client MAC addresses to node addresses) using this MAC address buffer and linking it to the node's address contained in the OGM. A node that wants to contact a client has to lookup the node the client is connected to and its address in the global translation table. It is easy to understand that this implementation suffers from several issues: - big overhead (each and every OGM contains the entire list of connected clients) - high latencies for client route updates due to long OGM trip time and OGM losses The new implementation addresses these issues by appending client changes (new client joined or a client left) to the OGM instead of filling it with all the client addresses each time. In this way nodes can modify their global tables by means of "updates", thus reducing the overhead within the OGMs. To keep the entire network in sync each node maintains a translation table version number (ttvn) and a translation table checksum. These values are spread with the OGM to allow all the network participants to determine whether or not they need to update their translation table information. When a translation table lookup is performed in order to send a packet to a client attached to another node, the destination's ttvn is added to the payload packet. Forwarding nodes can compare the packet's ttvn with their destination's ttvn (this node could have a fresher information than the source) and re-route the packet if necessary. This greatly reduces the packet loss of clients roaming from one AP to the next.

* batman-adv: Avoid deadlock between rtnl_lock and s_activeSven Eckelmann2011-05-081-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hard_if_event is called by the notifier with rtnl_lock and tries to remove sysfs entries when a NETDEV_UNREGISTER event is received. This will automatically take the s_active lock. The s_active lock is also used when a new interface is added to a meshif through sysfs. In that situation we cannot wait for the rntl_lock before creating the actual batman-adv interface to prevent a deadlock. It is still possible to try to get the rtnl_lock and immediately abort the current operation when the trylock call failed. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
* batman-adv: Remove unnecessary hardif_list_lockSven Eckelmann2011-05-081-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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().
