hash_add() returns 0 on success while returns -1 either on error and on

Instead, deleted client have to be kept in the table in order to be sent

Antonio Quartulli 5fbc1598c2 batman-adv: unify flags for tt_change/tt_local_entry/tt_global_entry
The tt_local_entry structure now has a 'flags' field. This helps to
unify the flags format to all the client related structures (tt_global_entry
and tt_change). The 'never_purge' field is now encoded in the 'flags' one.
To optimise the usage of this field, its length has been increased to 16bit
in order to use the eight leading bits (from 0 to 7) to store flags that
have to be sent on the wire, while the eight ending ones are used for local
computation only.

Moreover 'enum tt_change_flags' is now called 'enum tt_client_flags' and the
defined values apply to the tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry and the tt_change
'flags' field.

Antonio Quartulli cc47f66e6b batman-adv: improved roaming mechanism
With the current client announcement implementation, in case of roaming,
an update is triggered on the new AP serving the client. At that point
the new information is spread around by means of the OGM broadcasting
mechanism. Until this operations is not executed, no node is able to
correctly route traffic towards the client. This obviously causes packet
drops and introduces a delay in the time needed by the client to recover
its connections.

A new packet type called ROAMING_ADVERTISEMENT is added to account this
issue.

This message is sent in case of roaming from the new AP serving the
client to the old one and will contain the client MAC address. In this
way an out-of-OGM update is immediately committed, so that the old node
can update its global translation table. Traffic reaching this node will
then be redirected to the correct destination utilising the fresher
information. Thus reducing the packet drops and the connection recovery
delay.

Antonio Quartulli a73105b8d4 batman-adv: improved client announcement mechanism
The client announcement mechanism informs every mesh node in the network
of any connected non-mesh client, in order to find the path towards that
client from any given point in the mesh.

The old implementation was based on the simple idea of appending a data
buffer to each OGM containing all the client MAC addresses the node is
serving. All other nodes can populate their global translation tables
(table which links client MAC addresses to node addresses) using this
MAC address buffer and linking it to the node's address contained in the
OGM. A node that wants to contact a client has to lookup the node the
client is connected to and its address in the global translation table.

It is easy to understand that this implementation suffers from several
issues:
 - big overhead (each and every OGM contains the entire list of
   connected clients)
 - high latencies for client route updates due to long OGM trip time and
   OGM losses

The new implementation addresses these issues by appending client
changes (new client joined or a client left) to the OGM instead of
filling it with all the client addresses each time. In this way nodes
can modify their global tables by means of "updates", thus reducing the
overhead within the OGMs.

To keep the entire network in sync each node maintains a translation
table version number (ttvn) and a translation table checksum. These
values are spread with the OGM to allow all the network participants to
determine whether or not they need to update their translation table
information.

When a translation table lookup is performed in order to send a packet
to a client attached to another node, the destination's ttvn is added to
the payload packet. Forwarding nodes can compare the packet's ttvn with
their destination's ttvn (this node could have a fresher information
than the source) and re-route the packet if necessary. This greatly
reduces the packet loss of clients roaming from one AP to the next.

Sven Eckelmann 3a4375a9f0 batman-adv: Avoid deadlock between rtnl_lock and s_active
The hard_if_event is called by the notifier with rtnl_lock and tries to
remove sysfs entries when a NETDEV_UNREGISTER event is received. This
will automatically take the s_active lock.

The s_active lock is also used when a new interface is added to a meshif
through sysfs. In that situation we cannot wait for the rntl_lock before
creating the actual batman-adv interface to prevent a deadlock. It is
still possible to try to get the rtnl_lock and immediately abort the
current operation when the trylock call failed.

Sven Eckelmann c3caf5196c batman-adv: Remove unnecessary hardif_list_lock
hardif_list_lock is unneccessary because we already ensure that no
multiple admin operations can take place through rtnl_lock.
hardif_list_lock only adds additional overhead and complexity.

Critical functions now check whether they are called with rtnl_lock
using ASSERT_RTNL.

It indirectly fixes the problem that orig_hash_del_if() expects that
only one interface is deleted from hardif_list at a time, but
hardif_remove_interfaces() removes all at once and then calls
orig_hash_del_if().

This updates the network drivers so that they don't access the
ethtool_cmd::speed field directly, but use ethtool_cmd_speed()
instead.

For most of the drivers, these changes are purely cosmetic and don't
fix any problem, such as for those 1GbE/10GbE drivers that indirectly
call their own ethtool get_settings()/mii_ethtool_gset(). The changes
are meant to enforce code consistency and provide robustness with
future larger throughputs, at the expense of a few CPU cycles for each
ethtool operation.

All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig ion x86_64 have been

Linus Lüssing 9e0b33c221 batman-adv: Fix possible buffer overflow in softif neigh list output
When printing the soft interface table the number of entries in the
softif neigh list are first being counted and a fitting buffer
allocated. After that the softif neigh list gets locked again and
the buffer printed - which has the following two issues:

For one thing, the softif neigh list might have grown when reacquiring
the rcu lock, which results in writing outside of the allocated buffer.
Furthermore 31 Bytes are not enough for printing an entry with a vid
of more than 2 digits.

The manual buffering is unnecessary, we can safely print to the seq
directly during the rcu_read_lock().

Sven Eckelmann c2f7f0e7b3 batman-adv: Use successive sequence numbers for fragments
The two fragments of an unicast packet must have successive sequence numbers to
allow the receiver side to detect matching fragments and merge them again. The
current implementation doesn't provide that property because a sequence of two
atomic_inc_return may be interleaved with another sequence which also changes
the variable.

The access to the fragment sequence number pool has either to be protected by
correct locking or it has to reserve two sequence numbers in a single fetch.
The latter one can easily be done by increasing the value of the last used
sequence number by 2 in a single step. The generated window of two currently
unused sequence numbers can now be scattered across the two fragments.

Sven Eckelmann ae361ce19f batman-adv: Calculate correct size for merged packets
The routing algorithm must be able to decide if a fragment can be merged with
the missing part and still be passed to a forwarding interface. The fragments
can only differ by one byte in case that the original payload had an uneven
length. In that situation the sender has to inform all possible receivers that
the tail is one byte longer using the flag UNI_FRAG_LARGETAIL.

The combination of UNI_FRAG_LARGETAIL and UNI_FRAG_HEAD flag makes it possible
to calculate the correct length for even and uneven sized payloads.

The original formula missed to add the unicast header at all and forgot to
remove the fragment header of the second fragment. This made the results highly
unreliable and only useful for machines with large differences between the
configured MTUs.

Sven Eckelmann 5c77d8bb8a batman-adv: Create roughly equal sized fragments
The routing algorithm must know how large two fragments are to be able to
decide that it is safe to merge them or if it should resubmit without waiting
for the second part. When these two fragments have a too different size, it is
not possible to guess right in every situation.

The user could easily configure the MTU of the attached cards so that one
fragment is forwarded and the other one is added to the fragments table to wait
for the missing part.

For even sized packets, it is possible to split it so that the resulting
packages are equal sized by ignoring the old non-fragment header at the
beginning of the original packet.

This still creates different sized fragments for uneven sized packets.

Sven Eckelmann 1181e1daac batman-adv: Make vis info stack traversal threadsafe
The batman-adv vis server has to a stack which stores all information
about packets which should be send later. This stack is protected
with a spinlock that is used to prevent concurrent write access to it.

The send_vis_packets function has to take all elements from the stack
and send them to other hosts over the primary interface. The send will
be initiated without the lock which protects the stack.

The implementation using list_for_each_entry_safe has the problem that
it stores the next element as "safe ptr" to allow the deletion of the
current element in the list. The list may be modified during the
unlock/lock pair in the loop body which may make the safe pointer
not pointing to correct next element.

It is safer to remove and use the first element from the stack until no
elements are available. This does not need reduntant information which
would have to be validated each time the lock was removed.

Jesper Juhl ed7809d9c4 batman-adv: Even Batman should not dereference NULL pointers
There's a problem in net/batman-adv/unicast.c::frag_send_skb().
dev_alloc_skb() allocates memory and may fail, thus returning NULL. If
this happens we'll pass a NULL pointer on to skb_split() which in turn
hands it to skb_split_inside_header() from where it gets passed to
skb_put() that lets skb_tail_pointer() play with it and that function
dereferences it. And thus the bat dies.

While I was at it I also moved the call to dev_alloc_skb() above the
assignment to 'unicast_packet' since there's no reason to do that
assignment if the memory allocation fails.
