2016-09-196lowpan: ndisc: no overreact if no short address is availableAlexander Aring1-2/+0
This patch removes handling to remove short address for a neigbour entry if RS/RA/NS/NA doesn't contain a short address. If these messages doesn't has any short address option, the existing short address from ndisc cache will be used. The current behaviour will set that the neigbour doesn't has a short address anymore.

When receiving neighbour information with short address option field we should check the complete range of invalid short addresses and set it to one invalid address setting which is the unspecified address. This address is also used when by creating at first a new neighbour entry to indicate no short address is set.

2015-10-216lowpan: rework tc and flow label handlingAlexander Aring1-85/+205
This patch reworks the handling of compression/decompression of traffic class and flow label handling. The current method is hard to understand, also doesn't checks if we can read the buffer from skb length. I tried to put the shifting operations into static inline functions and comment each steps which I did there to make it hopefully somewhat more readable. The big mess to deal with that is the that the ipv6 header bring the order "DSCP + ECN" but iphc uses "ECN + DSCP". Additional the DCSP + ECN bits are splitted in ipv6_hdr inside the priority and flow_lbl[0] fields. I tested these compressions by using fakelb 802.15.4 driver and manipulate the tc and flow label fields manually in function "__ip6_local_out" before the skb will be send to lower layers. Then I looked up the tc and flow label fields in wireshark on a wpan and lowpan interface. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

Additional this patch slighty change the naming style like RFC 6282, e.g. TTL to HLIM and we will drop an errno now if CID flag is set, because we don't support it.

This patch changes the lowpan_header_decompress function by removing inklayer related information from parameters. This is currently for supporting short and extended address for iphc handling in 802154. We don't support short address handling anyway right now, but there exists already code for handling short addresses in lowpan_header_decompress. The address parameters are also changed to a void pointer, so 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code can put complex structures as these parameters and cast it again inside the generic code by evaluating linklayer type before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and then source address, which is the same like all others functions where destination is always the first, memcpy, dev_hard_header, lowpan_header_compress, etc. This patch also moves the fetching of iphc values from 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code into the generic branch.

This patch cleanups needed_headroom, needed_tailroom and hard_header_len fields for wpan and lowpan interfaces. For wpan interfaces the worst case mac header len should be part of needed_headroom, currently this is set as hard_header_len, but hard_header_len should be set to the minimum header length which xmit call assumes and this is the minimum frame length of 802.15.4. The hard_header_len value will check inside send callbacl of AF_PACKET raw sockets. For lowpan interfaces, if fragmentation isn't needed the skb will call dev_hard_header for 802154 layer and queue it afterwards. This happens without new skb allocation, so we need the same headroom and tailroom lengths like 802154 inside 802154 6lowpan layer. At least we assume as minimum header length an ipv6 header size.
