Sven Eckelmann f19dc7770f batman-adv: Remove orig_node reference handling from send_skb_unicast
The function batadv_send_skb_unicast is not acquiring a reference for an
orig_node nor removing it from any datastructure. It still reduces the
reference counter for an object which is still in the hands of the caller.

This is confusing and can lead in the future to problems in the reference
handling of the caller function.

Linus Lüssing a65e548131 batman-adv: Introduce forward packet creation helper
This patch abstracts the forward packet creation into the new function
batadv_forw_packet_alloc().

The queue counting and interface reference counters are now handled
internally within batadv_forw_packet_alloc() and its
batadv_forw_packet_free() counterpart. This should reduce the risk of
having reference/queue counting bugs again and should increase
code readibility.

Sven Eckelmann d1fe176ca5 batman-adv: Fix speedy join in gateway client mode
Speedy join only works when the received packet is either broadcast or an
4addr unicast packet. Thus packets converted from broadcast to unicast via
the gateway handling code have to be converted to 4addr packets to allow
the receiving gateway server to add the sender address as temporary entry
to the translation table.

Not doing it will make the batman-adv gateway server drop the DHCP response
in many situations because it doesn't yet have the TT entry for the
destination of the DHCP response.

Sven Eckelmann 273534468f batman-adv: Check hard_iface refcnt before calling function
The batadv_hardif_list list is checked in many situations and the items
in this list are given to specialized functions to modify the routing
behavior. At the moment each of these called functions has to check
itself whether the received batadv_hard_iface has a refcount > 0 before
it can increase the reference counter and use it in other objects.

This can easily lead to problems because it is not easily visible where
all callers of a function got the batadv_hard_iface object from and
whether they already hold a valid reference.

Checking the reference counter directly before calling a subfunction
with a pointer from the batadv_hardif_list avoids this problem.

Antonio Quartulli 95d392784d batman-adv: keep track of when unicast packets are sent
To enable ELP to send probing packets over wireless links
only if needed, batman-adv must keep track of the last time
it sent a unicast packet towards every neighbour.

For this purpose a 2 main changes are introduced:
1) a new member of the elp_neigh_node structure stores the
   last time a unicast packet was sent towards this neighbour;
2) a wrapper function for sending unicast packets is
   implemented. This function will simply update the member
   describe din point 1) and then forward the packet to the
   real sending routine.

Point 2) implies that any code-path leading to a unicast
sending now has to use the new wrapper.

Sven Eckelmann 1e2c2a4fe4 batman-adv: Add required includes to all files
The header files could not be build indepdent from each other. This is
happened because headers didn't include the files for things they've used.
This was problematic because the success of a build depended on the
knowledge about the right order of local includes.

Also source files were not including everything they've used explicitly.
Instead they required that transitive includes are always stable. This is
problematic because some transitive includes are not obvious, depend on
config settings and may not be stable in the future.

The order for include blocks are:

 * primary headers (main.h and the *.h file of a *.c file)
 * global linux headers
 * required local headers
 * extra forward declarations for pointers in function/struct declarations

The only exceptions are linux/bitops.h and linux/if_ether.h in packet.h.
This header file is shared with userspace applications like batctl and must
therefore build together with userspace applications. The header
linux/bitops.h is not part of the uapi headers and linux/if_ether.h
conflicts with the musl implementation of netinet/if_ether.h. The
maintainers rejected the use of __KERNEL__ preprocessor checks and thus
these two headers are only in main.h. All files using packet.h first have
to include main.h to work correctly.

Linus Lüssing 4c8755d69c batman-adv: Send multicast packets to nodes with a WANT_ALL flag
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.

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.

Our .ndo_start_xmit handler (batadv_interface_tx()) can rely on having
the skb mac header pointer set correctly since the following commit
present in kernels >= 3.9:

"net: reset mac header in dev_start_xmit()" (6d1ccff627)

Therefore we can safely use eth_hdr() and vlan_eth_hdr() instead of
skb->data now, which spares us some ugly type casts.

At the same time set the mac_header in batadv_dat_snoop_incoming_arp_request()
before sending the skb along the TX path.

Simon Wunderlich ef0a937f7a batman-adv: consider outgoing interface in OGM sending
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.

Antonio Quartulli 6c413b1c22 batman-adv: send every DHCP packet as bat-unicast
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.

Simon Wunderlich a40d9b075c batman-adv: fix header alignment by unrolling batadv_header
The size of the batadv_header of 3 is problematic on some architectures
which automatically pad all structures to a 32 bit boundary. To not lose
performance by packing this struct, better embed it into the various
host structures.

Linus Lüssing e300d31466 batman-adv: refine API calls for unicast transmissions of SKBs
With this patch the functions batadv_send_skb_unicast() and
batadv_send_skb_unicast_4addr() are further refined into
batadv_send_skb_via_tt(), batadv_send_skb_via_tt_4addr() and
batadv_send_skb_via_gw(). This way we avoid any "guessing" about where to send
a packet in the unicast forwarding methods and let the callers decide.

This is going to be useful for the upcoming multicast related patches in
particular.

Further, the return values were polished a little to use the more
appropriate NET_XMIT_* defines.

Antonio Quartulli c018ad3de6 batman-adv: add the VLAN ID attribute to the TT entry
To make the translation table code VLAN-aware, each entry
must carry the VLAN ID which it belongs to. This patch adds
such attribute to the related TT structures.

Simon Wunderlich 56a5ca8409 batman-adv: remove useless find_router look up
This is not used anymore with the new fragmentation, and it might
actually mess up the bonding code because find_router() assumes it

Antonio Quartulli 293e93385e batman-adv: use htons when possible
When comparing a network ordered value with a constant, it
is better to convert the constant at compile time by means
of htons() instead of converting the value at runtime using
ntohs().

This refactoring may slightly improve the code performance.

Moreover substitute __constant_htons() with htons() since
the latter increase readability and it is smart enough to be
as efficient as the former

Martin Hundebøll ee75ed8887 batman-adv: Fragment and send skbs larger than mtu
Non-broadcast packets larger than MTU are fragmented and sent with
an encapsulating header. Up to 16 fragments are supported, which are
sent in reverse order on the wire to allow minimal memory copying when

and delete unicast.{h,c}.

batadv_unicast_send_skb() is moved to send.c and renamed to
batadv_send_skb_unicast().

fragmentation entry in sysfs (bat_priv->fragmentation) is kept for use in
the new fragmentation code.

BATADV_UNICAST_FRAG packet type is renamed to BATADV_FRAG for use in the
new fragmentation code.

Simon Wunderlich c54f38c9aa batman-adv: set skb priority according to content
The skb priority field may help the wireless driver to choose the right
queue (e.g. WMM queues). This should be set in batman-adv, as this
information is only available here.

This patch adds support for IPv4/IPv6 DS fields and VLAN PCP. Note that
only VLAN PCP is used if a VLAN header is present. Also initially set
TC_PRIO_CONTROL only for self-generated packets, and keep the priority
set by higher layers.

The call to batadv_nc_skb_forward() fits better in
batadv_send_skb_to_orig(), as this is where the actual next hop is

To let the caller of batadv_send_skb_to_orig() know wether the skb is
transmitted, buffered or failed, the return value is changed from
boolean to int.
