Joe Perches d9cd4fe5ef batadv: Slight optimization of batadv_compare_eth
Use the newly added generic routine ether_addr_equal_unaligned
to test if possibly unaligned to u16 Ethernet addresses are equal.

This slightly improves comparison time for systems with
CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS.

Simon Wunderlich da6b8c20a5 batman-adv: generalize batman-adv icmp packet handling
Instead of handling icmp packets only up to length of icmp_packet_rr,
the code should handle any icmp length size. 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.

Antonio Quartulli 0eb01568f0 batman-adv: include the sync-flags when compute the global/local table CRC
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.

Antonio Quartulli 3c4f7ab60c batman-adv: improve the TT component to support runtime flag changes
Some flags (i.e. the WIFI flag) may change after that the
related client has already been announced. However it is
useful to informa the rest of the network about this change.

Add a runtime-flag-switch detection mechanism and

value.

may need the same treatment.

Marek Lindner a19d3d85e1 batman-adv: limit local translation table max size
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.

Antonio Quartulli d0015fdd3d batman-adv: provide orig_node routing API
Some operations executed on an orig_node depends on the
current routing algorithm being used. To easily make this
mechanism routing algorithm agnostic add a orig_node
specific API that each algorithm can populate with its own
routines.

Such routines are then invoked by the code when needed,
without knowing which routing algorithm is currently in use

With this patch 3 API functions are added:
- orig_free (to free routing depending internal structs)
- orig_add_if (to change the inner state of an orig_node
  when a new hard interface is added)
- orig_del_if (to change the inner state of an orig_node
  when an hard interface is removed)

Antonio Quartulli cfd4f75701 batman-adv: make the backbone gw check VLAN specific
The backbone gw check has to be VLAN specific so that code
using it can specify VID where the check has to be done.

In the TT code, the check has been moved into the
tt_global_add() function so that it can be performed on a
per-entry basis instead of ignoring all the TT data received
from another backbone node. Only TT global entries belonging
to the VLAN where the backbone node is connected to are
skipped.
All the other spots where the TT code was checking whether a
node is a backbone have been removed.

Moreover, batadv_bla_is_backbone_gw_orig() now returns bool
since it used to return only 1 or 0.

Antonio Quartulli 7ea7b4a142 batman-adv: make the TT CRC logic VLAN specific
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.

Antonio Quartulli a70a9aa990 batman-adv: lock around TT operations to avoid sending inconsistent data
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

To make the code simpler and easier to extend, attributes

Antonio Quartulli 2102605947 batman-adv: don't use call_rcu if not needed
batadv_tt_global_entry_free_ref uses call_rcu to schedule a
function which will only free the global entry itself.

For this reason call_rcu is useless and kfree_rcu can be
used to simplify the code.

Antonio Quartulli 1e5d49fce3 batman-adv: make tt_global_add static and return bool
batadv_tt_global_add is not used anymore outside of the TT
code thanks to the TVLV implementation. It can therefore be
declared as static

("batman-adv: tvlv - convert roaming adv packet to use tvlv unicast packets")

Moreover make it return bool since its result can be either 0 or 1.
