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.

batman-adv: Use common Jenkins Hash implementation

2015-06-07T15:07:17+00:00

An unoptimized version of the Jenkins one-at-a-time hash function is used and partially copied all over the code wherever an hashtable is used. Instead the optimized version shared between the whole kernel should be used to reduce code duplication and use better optimized code. Only the DAT code must use the old implementation because it is used as distributed hash function which has to be common for all nodes. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner

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: use the const qualifier in hash functions

2013-01-12T10:58:22+00:00

The data argument in each hash function should carry the "const" qualifier as it is never modified. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner

batman-adv: don't rely on positions in struct for hashing

2012-11-14T20:00:32+00:00

The hash functions in the bridge loop avoidance code expects the VLAN vid to be right after the mac address, but this is not guaranteed. Fix this by explicitly hashing over the right fields of the struct. Reported-by: Marek Lindner Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli
