batman-adv: Add required includes to all files

2015-06-07T15:07:19+00:00

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.

dev: introduce dev_get_iflink()

2015-04-02T18:04:59+00:00

The goal of this patch is to prepare the removal of the iflink field. It introduces a new ndo function, which will be implemented by virtual interfaces. There is no functional change into this patch. All readers of iflink field now call dev_get_iflink(). Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

batman: fix a bogus warning from batadv_is_on_batman_iface()

2014-05-22T21:23:00+00:00

batman tries to search dev->iflink to check if it's a batman interface, but ->iflink could be 0, which is not a valid ifindex. It should just avoid iflink == 0 case.

batman-adv: fix soft-interface MTU computation

2014-02-17T16:17:00+00:00

The current MTU computation always returns a value smaller than 1500bytes even if the real interfaces have an MTU large enough to compensate the batman-adv overhead. Fix the computation by properly returning the highest admitted value. Introduced by a19d3d85e1b854e4a483a55d740a42458085560d ("batman-adv: limit local translation table max size") Reported-by: Russell Senior Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner

batman-adv: use __dev_get_by_index instead of dev_get_by_index to find interface

2014-01-15T02:50:47+00:00

The following call chains indicate that batadv_is_on_batman_iface() is always under rtnl_lock protection as call_netdevice_notifier() is protected by rtnl_lock. So if __dev_get_by_index() rather than dev_get_by_index() is used to find interface handler in it, this would help us avoid to change interface reference counter. call_netdevice_notifier() batadv_hard_if_event() batadv_hardif_add_interface() batadv_is_valid_iface() batadv_is_on_batman_iface() Cc: Antonio Quartulli Signed-off-by: Ying Xue Acked-by: Antonio Quartulli Signed-off-by: David S.

batman-adv: add debugfs structure for information per interface

2014-01-12T13:41:15+00:00

To show information per interface, add a debugfs hardif structure similar to the system in sysfs. Hard interface folders will be created in "$debugfs/batman-adv/". Files are not yet added. Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli

batman-adv: remove FSF address from GPL disclaimer

2014-01-08T19:49:39+00:00

As suggested by checkpatch, remove all the references to the FSF address since the kernel already has one reference in its documentation. In this way it is easier to update it in case of future changes. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner

batman-adv: invoke dev_get_by_index() outside of is_wifi_iface()

2013-10-23T15:03:44+00:00

Upcoming changes need to perform other checks on the incoming net_device struct. To avoid performing dev_get_by_index() for each and every check, it is better to move it outside of is_wifi_iface() and search the netdev object once only. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner
