batadv_check_unicast_ttvn may redirect a packet to itself or another
originator. This involves rewriting the ttvn and the destination address in
the batadv unicast header. These field were not yet pulled (with skb rcsum
update) and thus any change to them also requires a change in the receive
checksum.

As the kernel doc describes too the code is supposed to skip adding
multicast TT entries if both the WANT_ALL_IPV4 and WANT_ALL_IPV6 flags
are present.
Unfortunately, the current code even skips adding multicast TT entries
if only either the WANT_ALL_IPV4 or WANT_ALL_IPV6 is present.
This could lead to IPv6 multicast packet loss if only an IGMP but not an
MLD querier is present for instance or vice versa.

batman-adv uses internal indices for each enabled and active interface.
It is currently used by the B.A.T.M.A.N. IV algorithm to identifify the
correct position in the ogm_cnt bitmaps.
The type for the number of enabled interfaces (which defines the next
interface index) was set to char. This type can be (depending on the
architecture) either signed (limiting batman-adv to 127 active slave
interfaces) or unsigned (limiting batman-adv to 255 active slave
interfaces).
This limit was not correctly checked when an interface was enabled and thus
an overflow happened. This was only catched on systems with the signed char
type when the B.A.T.M.A.N. IV code tried to resize its counter arrays with
a negative size.
The if_num interface index was only a s16 and therefore significantly
smaller than the ifindex (int) used by the code net code.
Both &batadv_hard_iface->if_num and &batadv_priv->num_ifaces must be
(unsigned) int to support the same number of slave interfaces as the net
core code. And the interface activation code must check the number of
active slave interfaces to avoid integer overflows.

The function batadv_bla_backbone_dump_bucket must be able to handle
non-complete dumps of a single bucket. It tries to do that by saving the
latest dumped index in *idx_skip to inform the caller about the current
state.
But the caller only assumes that buckets were not completely dumped when
the return code is non-zero. This function must therefore also return a
non-zero index when the dumping of an entry failed. Otherwise the caller
will just skip all remaining buckets.
And the function must also reset *idx_skip back to zero when it finished a
bucket. Otherwise it will skip the same number of entries in the next
bucket as the previous one had.

A more sophisticated implementation could try to combine fragment checksums
when all fragments have CHECKSUM_COMPLETE and are split at even offsets.
For now, we just set ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE to avoid "hw csum failure"
warnings in the kernel log when fragmented frames are received. In
consequence, skb_pull_rcsum() can be replaced with skb_pull().
Note that in usual setups, packets don't reach batman-adv with
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE (I assume NICs bail out of checksumming when they see
batadv's ethtype?), which is why the log messages do not occur on every
system using batman-adv. I could reproduce this issue by stacking
batman-adv on top of a VXLAN interface.

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*

for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
"This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
variables used to hold the future return value'.
Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance
deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
in this series - it's large enough as it is.
Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
arch-independent, but POLL### are not.
The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
work on all architectures.
As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
architectures"

The originator node object orig_neigh_node is used to when accessing the
bcast_own(_sum) and real_packet_count information. The access to them has
to be protected with the spinlock in orig_neigh_node.
But the function uses the lock in orig_node instead. This is incorrect
because they could be two different originator node objects.

The neighbor compare API implementation for B.A.T.M.A.N. V checks whether
the neigh_ifinfo for this neighbor on a specific interface exists. A
warning is printed when it isn't found.
But it is not called inside a lock which would prevent that this
information is lost right before batadv_neigh_ifinfo_get. It must therefore
be expected that batadv_v_neigh_(cmp|is_sob) might not be able to get the
requested neigh_ifinfo.
A WARN_ON for such a situation seems not to be appropriate because this
will only flood the kernel logs. The warnings must therefore be removed.

This patch fixes an issue in the translation table code potentially
leading to a TT Request + Response storm. The issue may occur for nodes
involving BLA and an inconsistent configuration of the batman-adv AP
isolation feature. However, since the new multicast optimizations, a
single, malformed packet may lead to a mesh-wide, persistent
Denial-of-Service, too.
The issue occurs because nodes are currently OR-ing the TT sync flags of
all originators announcing a specific MAC address via the
translation table. When an intermediate node now receives a TT Request
and wants to answer this on behalf of the destination node, then this
intermediate node now responds with an altered flag field and broken
CRC. The next OGM of the real destination will lead to a CRC mismatch
and triggering a TT Request and Response again.
Furthermore, the OR-ing is currently never undone as long as at least
one originator announcing the according MAC address remains, leading to
the potential persistency of this issue.
This patch fixes this issue by storing the flags used in the CRC
calculation on a a per TT orig entry basis to be able to respond with
the correct, original flags in an intermediate TT Response for one
thing. And to be able to correctly unset sync flags once all nodes
announcing a sync flag vanish for another.

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,

Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *

where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.
Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.
netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.
netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.
Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().
This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.
If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.
Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.
Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().
netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().
And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

With this patch the maximum fragment size is reduced from 1400 to 1280
bytes.
Fragmentation v2 correctly uses the smaller of 1400 and the interface
MTU, thus generally supporting interfaces with an MTU < 1400 bytes, too.
However, currently "Fragmentation v2" does not support re-fragmentation.
Which means that once a packet is split into two packets of 1400 + x
bytes for instance and the next hop provides an interface with an even
smaller MTU of 1280 bytes, then the larger fragment is lost.
A maximum fragment size of 1280 bytes is a safer option as this is the
minimum MTU required by IPv6, making interfaces with an MTU < 1280
rather exotic.
Regarding performance, this should have no negative impact on unicast
traffic: Having some more bytes in the smaller and some less in the
larger does not change the sum of both fragments.
Concerning TT, choosing 1280 bytes fragments might result in more TT
messages than necessary when a large network is bridged into batman-adv.
However, the TT overhead in general is marginal due to its reactive
nature, therefore such a performance impact on TT should not be
noticeable for a user.

The .get_settings function pointer and the related API was deprecated.
Fortunately, batman-adv is a virtual interface and never provided any

This patch refactors the num_packets counter of a forw_packet in the
following three ways:
1) Removed dual-use of forw_packet::num_packets:
-> now for aggregation purposes only
2) Using forw_packet::skb::cb::num_bcasts instead:
-> for easier access in aggregation code later
3) make access to num_bcasts private to batadv_forw_packet_*()

Consider the following situation which has been found in a test setup:
Gateway B has claimed client C and gateway A has the same backbone
network as B. C sends a broad- or multicast to B and directly after
this packet decides to send another packet to A due to a better TQ
value. B will forward the broad-/multicast into the backbone as it is
the responsible gw and after that A will claim C as it has been
chosen by C as the best gateway. If it now happens that A claims C
before it has received the broad-/multicast forwarded by B (due to
backbone topology or due to some delay in B when forwarding the
packet) we get a critical situation: in the current code A will
immediately unclaim C when receiving the multicast due to the
roaming client scenario although the position of C has not changed
in the mesh. If this happens the multi-/broadcast forwarded by B
will be sent back into the mesh by A and we have looping packets
until one of the gateways claims C again.
In order to prevent this, unclaiming of a client due to the roaming
client scenario is only done after a certain time is expired after
the last claim of the client. 100 ms are used here, which should be
slow enough for big backbones and slow gateways but fast enough not
to break the roaming client use case.

If none of the backbone gateways in a bla setup has already knowledge of
the mac address searched for in an incoming ARP request from the backbone
an address resolution via the DHT of DAT is started. The gateway can send
several ARP requests to different DHT nodes and therefore can get several
replies. This patch assures that not all of the possible ARP replies are
returned to the backbone by checking the local DAT cache of the gateway.
If there is an entry in the local cache the gateway has already learned
the requested address and there is no need to forward the additional reply
to the backbone.
Furthermore it is checked if this gateway has claimed the source of the ARP
reply and only forwards it to the backbone if it has claimed the source or
if there is no claim at all.

If dat is enabled it must be made sure that only the backbone gw which has
claimed the remote destination for the ARP request answers the ARP request
directly if the MAC address is known due to the local dat table. This
prevents multiple ARP replies in a common backbone if more than one
gateway already knows the remote mac searched for in the ARP request.

The gateway selection class variable is shared between different algorithm
versions. But the interpretation of the content is algorithm specific. The
initialization is therefore also algorithm specific.
But this was implemented incorrectly and the initialization for BATMAN_V
always overwrote the value previously written for BATMAN_IV. This could
only be avoided when BATMAN_V was disabled during compile time.
Using a special batadv_algo hook for this initialization avoids this
problem.

The batman-adv fragmentation packets have the design problem that they
cannot be refragmented and cannot handle padding by the underlying link.
The latter often leads to problems when networks are incorrectly configured
and don't use a common MTU.
The sender could for example fragment a 1271 byte frame (plus external
ethernet header (14) and batadv unicast header (10)) to fit in a 1280 bytes
large MTU of the underlying link (max. 1294 byte frames). This would create
a 1294 bytes large frame (fragment 2) and a 55 bytes large frame
(fragment 1). The extra 54 bytes are the fragment header (20) added to each
fragment and the external ethernet header (14) for the second fragment.
Let us assume that the next hop is then not able to transport 1294 bytes to
its next hop. The 1294 byte large frame will be dropped but the 55 bytes
large fragment will still be forwarded to its destination.
Or let us assume that the underlying hardware requires that each frame has
a minimum size (e.g. 60 bytes). Then it will pad the 55 bytes frame to 60
bytes. The receiver of the 60 bytes frame will no longer be able to
correctly assemble the two frames together because it is not aware that 5
bytes of the 60 bytes frame are padding and don't belong to the reassembled
frame.
This can partly be avoided by splitting frames more equally. In this
example, the 675 and 674 bytes large fragment frames could both potentially
reach its destination without being too large or too small.

Trying to split and transmit a unicast packet in 16 parts will fail for
the final fragment: After having sent the 15th one with a frag_packet.no
index of 14, we will increase the the index to 15 - and return with an
error code immediately, even though one more fragment is due for
transmission and allowed.
Fixing this issue by moving the check before incrementing the index.

an assertion.

The function batadv_frag_skb_buffer was supposed not to consume the skbuff
on errors. This was followed in the helper function
batadv_frag_insert_packet when the skb would potentially be inserted in the
fragment queue. But it could happen that the next helper function
batadv_frag_merge_packets would try to merge the fragments and fail. This
results in a kfree_skb of all the enqueued fragments (including the just
inserted one). batadv_recv_frag_packet would detect the error in
batadv_frag_skb_buffer and try to free the skb again.
The behavior of batadv_frag_skb_buffer (and its helper
batadv_frag_insert_packet) must therefore be changed to always consume the
skbuff to have a common behavior and avoid the double kfree_skb.

The tc could return NET_XMIT_CN as one congestion notification, but
it does not mean the packet is lost. Other modules like ipvlan,
macvlan, and others treat NET_XMIT_CN as success too.
So batman-adv should handle NET_XMIT_CN also as NET_XMIT_SUCCESS.

The network stack no longer uses the last_rx member of struct net_device
since the bonding driver switched to use its own private last_rx in
commit 9f24273837 ("bonding: use last_arp_rx in slave_last_rx()").
However, some drivers still (ab)use the field for their own purposes and
some driver just update it without actually using it.
Previously, there was an accompanying comment for the last_rx member
added in commit 4dc89133f4 ("net: add a comment on netdev->last_rx")
which asked drivers not to update is, unless really needed. However,
this commend was removed in commit f8ff080dac ("bonding: remove
useless updating of slave->dev->last_rx"), so some drivers added later
on still did update last_rx.
Remove all usage of last_rx and switch three drivers (sky2, atp and
smc91c92_cs) which actually read and write it to use their own private
copy in netdev_priv.
Compile-tested with allyesconfig and allmodconfig on x86 and arm.

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps
for the Thunder driver.
That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending
a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an
error.
Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those
are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically.
But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has
to stay.
However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original
MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if
an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change.
Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original
MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue.

It does not happen often, but may potentially happen when frequently
shutting down and reinitializing an interface. With some carefully
placed msleep()s/mdelay()s it can be reproduced easily.
The issue is, that on interface removal, any still running worker thread
of a forwarding packet will race with the interface purging routine to
free a forwarding packet. Temporarily giving up a spin-lock to be able
to sleep in the purging routine is not safe.
Furthermore, there is a potential general protection fault not just for
the purging side shown above, but also on the worker side: Temporarily
removing a forw_packet from the according forw_{bcast,bat}_list will make
it impossible for the purging routine to catch and cancel it.
# How this patch tries to fix it:
With this patch we split the queue purging into three steps: Step 1),
removing forward packets from the queue of an interface and by that
claim it as our responsibility to free.
Step 2), we are either lucky to cancel a pending worker before it starts
to run. Or if it is already running, we wait and let it do its thing,
except two things:
Through the claiming in step 1) we prevent workers from a) re-arming
themselves. And b) prevent workers from freeing packets which we still
hold in the interface purging routine.
Finally, step 3, we are sure that no forwarding packets are pending or
even running anymore on the interface to remove. We can then safely free
the claimed forwarding packets.

batman-adv is requiring the type of wifi device in different contexts. Some

semaphore taken. But even others don't allow that the semaphore will be

The data has to be retrieved when the hardif is added to batman-adv because
some of the wifi information for an hardif will only be available with rtnl
lock. It can then be cached in the batadv_hard_iface and the functions

With this patch, (re)broadcasting on a specific interfaces is avoided:
* No neighbor: There is no need to broadcast on an interface if there
is no node behind it.
* Single neighbor is source: If there is just one neighbor on an
interface and if this neighbor is the one we actually got this
broadcast packet from, then we do not need to echo it back.
* Single neighbor is originator: If there is just one neighbor on
an interface and if this neighbor is the originator of this
broadcast packet, then we do not need to echo it back.
Goodies for BATMAN V:
("Upgrade your BATMAN IV network to V now to get these for free!")
Thanks to the split of OGMv1 into two packet types, OGMv2 and ELP
that is, we can now apply the same optimizations stated above to OGMv2
packets, too.
Furthermore, with BATMAN V, rebroadcasts can be reduced in certain
multi interface cases, too, where BATMAN IV cannot. This is thanks to
the removal of the "secondary interface originator" concept in BATMAN V.

Instead of latching onto the OGM period, this patch introduces a worker
dedicated to multicast TT and TVLV updates.
The reasoning is, that upon roaming especially the translation table
should be updated timely to minimize connectivity issues.
With BATMAN V, the idea is to greatly increase the OGM interval to
reduce overhead. Unfortunately, right now this could lead to
a bad user experience if multicast traffic is involved.
Therefore this patch introduces a fixed 500ms update interval for
multicast TT entries and the multicast TVLV.

Now genl_register_family() is the only thing (other than the
users themselves, perhaps, but I didn't find any doing that)
writing to the family struct.
In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only
called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case
I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can
actually be marked __ro_after_init.
This protects the data structure from accidental corruption.

Instead of providing macros/inline functions to initialize
the families, make all users initialize them statically and
get rid of the macros.
This reduces the kernel code size by about 1.6k on x86-64

Static family IDs have never really been used, the only
use case was the workaround I introduced for those users
that assumed their family ID was also their multicast
group ID.
Additionally, because static family IDs would never be
reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively
low ID would only work for built-in families that can be
registered immediately after generic netlink is started,
which is basically only the control family (apart from
the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so
it would reserve those IDs)
Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and
luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move
those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get
rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust.

The maximum MTU is defined via the slave devices of an batman-adv
interface. Thus it is not possible to calculate the max_mtu during the
creation of the batman-adv device when no slave devices are attached. Doing
so would for example break non-fragmentation setups which then
(incorrectly) allow an MTU of 1500 even when underlying device cannot
transport 1500 bytes + batman-adv headers.
Checking the dynamically calculated max_mtu via the minimum of the slave
devices MTU during .ndo_change_mtu is also used by the bridge interface.

As long as there is still a reference for a hard interface held, there might
still be a forwarding packet relying on its attributes.
Therefore avoid setting hard_iface->soft_iface to NULL when disabling a hard
interface.
This fixes the following, potential splat:
batman_adv: bat0: Interface deactivated: eth1
batman_adv: bat0: Removing interface: eth1
cgroup: new mount options do not match the existing superblock, will be ignored
batman_adv: bat0: Interface deactivated: eth3
batman_adv: bat0: Removing interface: eth3

What happened here is, that there was still a forw_packet (here: a BATMAN IV
OGM) in the queue of eth3 with the forw_packet->if_incoming set to eth1 and the
forw_packet->if_outgoing set to eth3.
When eth3 is to be deactivated and removed, then this thread waits for the
forw_packet queued on eth3 to finish. Because eth1 was deactivated and removed
earlier and by that had forw_packet->if_incoming->soft_iface, set to NULL, the
splat when trying to send/flush the OGM on eth3 occures.

The files provided by batman-adv via debugfs are currently converted to
netlink. Tools which are not yet converted to use the netlink interface may
still rely on the old debugfs files. But systems which already upgraded
their tools can save some space by disabling this feature. The default
configuration of batman-adv on amd64 can reduce the size of the module by
around 11% when this feature is disabled.

Switch-like virtual interfaces like bridge or openvswitch don't destroy
itself when all their attached netdevices dissappear. Instead they only
remove the link to the unregistered device and keep working until they get
removed manually.
This has the benefit that all configurations for this interfaces are kept
and daemons reacting to rtnl events can just add new slave interfaces
without going through the complete configuration of the switch-like
netdevice.
Handling unregister events of client devices similar in batman-adv allows
users to drop their current workaround of dummy netdevices attached to
batman-adv soft-interfaces.
