batman-adv: Check skb size before using encapsulated ETH+VLAN header

2016-04-24T07:37:21+00:00

The encapsulated ethernet and VLAN header may be outside the received ethernet frame. Thus the skb buffer size has to be checked before it can be parsed to find out if it encapsulates another batman-adv packet.

batman-adv: Rename batadv_softif_vlan _free_ref function to _put

2016-02-23T05:49:10+00:00

The batman-adv source code is the only place in the kernel which uses the *_free_ref naming scheme for the *_put functions. Changing it to *_put makes it more consistent and makes it easier to understand the connection to the *_get functions.

batman-adv: Convert batadv_softif_vlan to kref

2016-02-10T15:23:59+00:00

batman-adv uses a self-written reference implementation which is just based on atomic_t. This is less obvious when reading the code than kref and therefore increases the change that the reference counting will be missed.

batman-adv: Add lower layer needed_(head|tail)room to own ones

2015-08-27T18:15:34+00:00

The maximum of hard_header_len and maximum of all needed_(head|tail)room of all slave interfaces of a batman-adv device must be used to define the batman-adv device needed_(head|tail)room. This is required to avoid too small buffer problems when these slave devices try to send the encapsulated packet in a tx path without the possibility to resize the skbuff.

batman-adv: Replace C99 int types with kernel type

2015-08-24T22:12:17+00:00

(s|u)(8|16|32|64) are the preferred types in the kernel. The use of the standard C99 types u?int(8|16|32|64)_t are objected by some people and even checkpatch now warns about using them. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli
