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: prefer ether_addr_copy to memcpy

2014-03-22T07:50:26+00:00

On some architectures ether_addr_copy() is slightly faster than memcpy() therefore use the former when possible. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner

batman-adv: split out router from orig_node

2014-01-12T13:41:11+00:00

For the network wide multi interface optimization there are different routers for each outgoing interface (outgoing from the OGM perspective, incoming for payload traffic). To reflect this, change the router and associated data to a list of routers. While at it, rename batadv_orig_node_get_router() to batadv_orig_router_get() to follow the new naming scheme.

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: fix header alignment by unrolling batadv_header

2013-12-28T11:51:16+00:00

The size of the batadv_header of 3 is problematic on some architectures which automatically pad all structures to a 32 bit boundary. To not lose performance by packing this struct, better embed it into the various host structures.

batman-adv: generalize batman-adv icmp packet handling

2013-10-23T15:03:47+00:00

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.

batman-adv: create common header for ICMP packets

2013-10-12T15:17:09+00:00

the icmp and the icmp_rr packets share the same initial fields since they use the same code to be processed and forwarded. Extract the common fields and put them into a separate struct so that future ICMP packets can be easily added without bloating the packet definition. However, keep the seqno field outside of the newly created common header because future ICMP types may require a bigger sequence number space. This change breaks compatibility due to fields reordering in the ICMP headers. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner

batman-adv: set skb priority according to content

2013-08-28T09:31:50+00:00

The skb priority field may help the wireless driver to choose the right queue (e.g. WMM queues). This should be set in batman-adv, as this information is only available here. This patch adds support for IPv4/IPv6 DS fields and VLAN PCP. Note that only VLAN PCP is used if a VLAN header is present. Also initially set TC_PRIO_CONTROL only for self-generated packets, and keep the priority set by higher layers.
