2011-03-05	batman-adv: rename batman_if struct to hard_iface	Marek Lindner	1	-176/+177
	Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
2011-03-05	batman-adv: rename global if_list to hardif_list	Marek Lindner	1	-14/+14
	Batman-adv works with "hard interfaces" as well as "soft interfaces". The new name should better make clear which kind of interfaces this list stores. Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
2011-03-05	batman-adv: separate ethernet comparing calls from hash functions	Marek Lindner	1	-1/+1
	Note: The function compare_ether_addr() provided by the Linux kernel requires aligned memory. Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
2011-03-05	batman-adv: Correct rcu refcounting for batman_if	Marek Lindner	1	-21/+19
	It might be possible that 2 threads access the same data in the same rcu grace period. The first thread calls call_rcu() to decrement the refcount and free the data while the second thread increases the refcount to use the data. To avoid this race condition all refcount operations have to be atomic. Reported-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
2011-03-05	batman-adv: protect bonding with rcu locks	Simon Wunderlich	1	-1/+1
	bonding / alternating candidates need to be secured by rcu locks as well. This patch therefore converts the bonding list from a plain pointer list to a rcu securable lists and references the bonding candidates.

2011-01-31	batman-adv: Remove declaration of batman_skb_recv	Sven Eckelmann	1	-2/+9
	batman_skb_recv can be defined in hard-interface.c as static because it is never used outside of that file. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
2010-12-17	net: Add batman-adv meshing protocol	Sven Eckelmann	1	-0/+651
	B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking) is a routing protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks. The networks may be wired or wireless. See http://www.open-mesh.org/ for more information and user space tools. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
