* batman-adv: fix TT VLAN inconsistency on VLAN re-addAntonio Quartulli2014-07-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a VLAN interface (on top of batX) is removed and re-added within a short timeframe TT does not have enough time to properly cleanup. This creates an internal TT state mismatch as the newly created softif_vlan will be initialized from scratch with a TT client count of zero (even if TT entries for this VLAN still exist). The resulting TT messages are bogus due to the counter / tt client listing mismatch, thus creating inconsistencies on every node in the network To fix this issue destroy_vlan() has to not free the VLAN object immediately but it has to be kept alive until all the TT entries for this VLAN have been removed. destroy_vlan() still removes the sysfs folder so that the user has the feeling that everything went fine. If the same VLAN is re-added before the old object is free'd, then the latter is resurrected and re-used. Implement such behaviour by increasing the reference counter of a softif_vlan object every time a new local TT entry for such VLAN is created and remove the object from the list only when all the TT entries have been destroyed.

* batman-adv: Send multicast packets to nodes with a WANT_ALL flagLinus Lüssing2014-03-221-1/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 supportLinus Lüssing2014-03-221-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 packetsLinus Lüssing2014-03-221-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: consider outgoing interface in OGM sendingSimon Wunderlich2014-01-121-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* batman-adv: add isolation_mark sysfs attributeAntonio Quartulli2014-01-081-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Quartulli2014-01-081-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

Therefore the length truncating is moved to when the packet is actually sent to userspace (this does not support lengths longer than icmp_packet_rr yet). Longer packets are forwarded without truncating. This patch also cleans up some parts where the icmp header struct could be used instead of other icmp_packet(_rr) structs to make the code more readable.

* batman-adv: include the sync-flags when compute the global/local table CRCAntonio Quartulli2013-10-231-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Lindner2013-10-231-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* batman-adv: make the TT CRC logic VLAN specificAntonio Quartulli2013-10-191-8/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change allows nodes to handle the TT table on a per-VLAN basis. This is needed because nodes may have to store only some of the global entries advertised by another node. In this scenario such nodes would re-create only a partial global table and would not be able to compute a correct CRC anymore. This patch splits the logic and introduces one CRC per VLAN. In this way a node fetching only some entries belonging to some VLANs is still able to compute the needed CRCs and still check the table correctness. With this patch the shape of the TVLV-TT is changed too because now a node needs to advertise all the CRCs of all the VLANs that it is wired to. The debug output of the local Translation Table now shows the CRC along with each entry since there is not a common value for the entire table anymore.

* batman-adv: lock around TT operations to avoid sending inconsistent dataAntonio Quartulli2013-10-191-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A TT response may be prepared and sent while the local or global translation table is getting updated. The worst case is when one of the tables is accessed after its content has been recently updated but the metadata (TTVN/CRC) has not yet. In this case the reader will get a table content which does not match the TTVN/CRC. This will lead to an inconsistent state and so to a TT recovery. To avoid entering this situation, put a lock around those TT operations recomputing the metadata and around the TT Response creation (the latter is the only reader that accesses the metadata together with the table).

Those attributes will affect the associated VLAN interface only, rather than the real soft_iface (which would result in every vlan interface having the same attribute configuration).

* batman-adv: tvlv - gateway download/upload bandwidth containerMarek Lindner2013-10-091-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Prior to this patch batman-adv read the advertised uplink bandwidth from userspace and compressed this information into a single byte called "gateway class". Now the download & upload bandwidth information is sent as-is. No userspace change is necessary since the sysfs API always allowed to specify a bandwidth.

* batman-adv: tvlv - basic infrastructureMarek Lindner2013-10-091-0/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The goal is to provide the infrastructure for sending, receiving and parsing information 'containers' while preserving backward compatibility. TVLV (based on the commonly known Type Length Value technique) was chosen as the format for those containers. Even if a node does not know the tvlv type of a certain container it can simply skip the current container and proceed with the next. Past experience has shown features evolve over time, so a 'version' field was added right from the start to allow differentiating between feature variants - hence the name: T(ype) V(ersion) L(ength) V(alue). This patch introduces the basic TVLV infrastructure: * register / unregister tvlv containers to be sent with each OGM (on primary interfaces only) * register / unregister callback handlers to be called upon finding the corresponding tvlv type in a tvlv buffer * unicast tvlv send / receive API calls Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de> Signed-off-by: Spyros Gasteratos <morfeas3000@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@meshcoding.com>
