2012-10-18batman-adv: Fix potential broadcast BLA-duplicate-check race conditionLinus Lüssing2-5/+16
Threads in the bottom half of batadv_bla_check_bcast_duplist() might otherwise for instance overwrite variables which other threads might be using/reading at the same time in the top half, potentially leading to messing up the bcast_duplist, possibly resulting in false bridge loop avoidance duplicate check decisions.

2012-10-18batman-adv: Fix broadcast packet CRC calculationLinus Lüssing2-5/+11
So far the crc16 checksum for a batman-adv broadcast data packet, received on a batman-adv hard interface, was calculated over zero bytes of its content leading to many incoming broadcast data packets wrongly being dropped (60-80% packet loss). This patch fixes this issue by calculating the crc16 over the actual, complete broadcast payload. The issue is a regression introduced by ("batman-adv: add broadcast duplicate check").

2012-09-23batman-adv: Fix symmetry check / route flapping in multi interface setupsLinus Lüssing1-6/+7
If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one. However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected router. This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups. This patch fixes this issue by using the right interface for this symmetry check. Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@web.de>

2012-09-19batman-adv: make batadv_test_bit() return 0 or 1 onlyLinus Lüssing1-3/+3
On some architectures test_bit() can return other values than 0 or 1: With a generic x86 OpenWrt image in a kvm setup (batadv_)test_bit() frequently returns -1 for me, leading to batadv_iv_ogm_update_seqnos() wrongly signaling a protected seqno window. This patch tries to fix this issue by making batadv_test_bit() return 0 or 1 only.

2012-08-23batman-adv: change interface_rx to get orig nodeAntonio Quartulli3-7/+14
In order to understand where a broadcast packet is coming from and use this information to detect not yet announced clients, this patch modifies the interface_rx() function by passing a new argument: the orig node corresponding to the node that originated the received packet (if known). This new argument if not NULL for broadcast packets only (other packets does not have source field). Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-08-23batman-adv: detect not yet announced clientsAntonio Quartulli5-33/+101
With the current TT mechanism a new client joining the network is not immediately able to communicate with other hosts because its MAC address has not been announced yet. This situation holds until the first OGM containing its joining event will be spread over the mesh network. This behaviour can be acceptable in networks where the originator interval is a small value (e.g. 1sec) but if that value is set to an higher time (e.g. 5secs) the client could suffer from several malfunctions like DHCP client timeouts, etc. This patch adds an early detection mechanism that makes nodes in the network able to recognise "not yet announced clients" by means of the broadcast packets they emitted on connection (e.g. ARP or DHCP request). The added client will then be confirmed upon receiving the OGM claiming it or purged if such OGM is not received within a fixed amount of time. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>

2012-08-23batman-adv: Split batadv_priv in sub-structures for featuresSven Eckelmann10-311/+343
The structure batadv_priv grows everytime a new feature is introduced. It gets hard to find the parts of the struct that belongs to a specific feature. This becomes even harder by the fact that not every feature uses a prefix in the member name. The variables for bridge loop avoidence, gateway handling, translation table and visualization server are moved into separate structs that are included in the bat_priv main struct.

2012-08-23batman-adv: check batadv_orig_hash_add_if() return codeSimon Wunderlich1-1/+7
If this call fails, some of the orig_nodes spaces may have been resized for the increased number of interface, and some may not. If we would just continue with the larger number of interfaces, this would lead to access to not allocated memory later. We better check the return code, and don't add the interface if no memory is available. OTOH, keeping some of the orig_nodes with too much memory allocated should hurt no one (except for a few too many bytes allocated).

2012-07-06batman-adv: check incoming packet type for blaSimon Wunderlich3-7/+19
If the gateway functionality is used, some broadcast packets (DHCP requests) may be transmitted as unicast packets. As the bridge loop avoidance code now only considers the payload Ethernet destination, it may drop the DHCP request for clients which are claimed by other backbone gateways, because it falsely infers from the broadcast address that the right backbone gateway should havehandled the broadcast. Fix this by checking and delegating the batman-adv packet type used for transmission.

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.
