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

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.

The translation table (global, local) is usually the part of batman-adv
which has the most dynamical allocated objects. Most of them
(tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry, tt_orig_list_entry, tt_change_node,
tt_req_node, tt_roam_node) are equally sized. So it makes sense to have
them allocated from a kmem_cache for each type.
This approach allowed a small wireless router (TP-Link TL-841NDv8; SLUB
allocator) to store 34% more translation table entries compared to the
current implementation.

The B.A.T.M.A.N. V algorithm uses a different metric compared to its
predecessor and for this reason the logic used to compute the best
Gateway is also changed. This means that the GW selection class
fed to this logic has a semantics that depends on the algorithm being
used.
Make the parsing and printing routine of the GW selection class
routing algorithm specific. Each algorithm can now parse (and print)
this value independently.
If no API is provided by any algorithm, the default is to use the
current mechanism of considering such value like an integer between

The kobject_put is only removing the sysfs entry and corresponding entries
when its reference counter becomes zero. This tends to lead to collisions
when a device is moved between two different network namespaces because
some of the sysfs files have to be removed first and then added again to
the already moved sysfs entry.

The legacy sysfs interface to modify interfaces belonging to batman-adv
is run inside a region holding s_lock. And to add a net_device, it has
to also get the rtnl_lock. This is exactly the other way around than in
other virtual net_devices and conflicts with netdevice notifier which
executes inside rtnl_lock.
The inverted lock situation is currently solved by executing the removal
of netdevices via workqueue. The workqueue isn't executed inside
rtnl_lock and thus can independently get the s_lock and the rtnl_lock.
But this workaround fails when the netdevice notifier creates events in
quick succession and the earlier triggered removal of a net_device isn't
processed in the workqueue before the adding of the new netdevice (with
same name) event is issued.
Instead the legacy sysfs interface store events have to be enqueued in
a workqueue to loose the s_lock. The worker is then free to get the
required locks and the deadlock is avoided.

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.

The routing API data structure contains several function
pointers that can easily be grouped together based on the
component they work with.
Split the API in subobjects in order to improve definition readability.
At the same time, remove the "bat_" prefix from the API object and
its fields names. These are batman-adv private structs and there is no
need to always prepend such prefix, which only makes function invocations
much much longer.

The throughput meter module is a simple, kernel-space replacement for
throughtput measurements tool like iperf and netperf. It is intended to
approximate TCP behaviour.
It is invoked through batctl: the protocol is connection oriented, with
cumulative acknowledgment and a dynamic-size sliding window.
The test *can* be interrupted by batctl. A receiver side timeout avoids
unlimited waitings for sender packets: after one second of inactivity, the
receiver abort the ongoing test.
Based on a prototype from Edo Monticelli <montik@autistici.org>

Return the proper netdev TX status along the TX path so that the tp_meter
can understand when the queue is full and should stop sending packets.

BATADV_CMD_GET_MESH_INFO is used to query basic information about a
batman-adv softif (name, index and MAC address for both the softif and
the primary hardif; routing algorithm; batman-adv version).

debugfs is currently severely broken virtually everywhere in the kernel
where files are dynamically added and removed (see
http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1506.1/02196.html for some
details). In addition to that, debugfs is not namespace-aware.
Instead of adding new debugfs entries, the whole infrastructure should be
moved to netlink. This will fix the long standing problem of large buffers
for debug tables and hard to parse text files.
