Sven Eckelmann 7e9a8c2ce7 batman-adv: Use parentheses in function kernel-doc
The documentation describing kernel-doc comments for functions ("How to
format kernel-doc comments") uses parentheses at the end of the function
name. Using this format allows to use a consistent style when adding
documentation to a function and when referencing this function in a
different kernel-doc section.

Sven Eckelmann 7db7d9f369 batman-adv: Add SPDX license identifier above copyright header
The "Linux kernel licensing rules" require that each file has a SPDX
license identifier as first line (and sometimes as second line).

The FSFE REUSE practices [1] would also require the same tags but have no
restrictions on the placement in the source file. Using the "Linux kernel
licensing rules" is therefore also fulfilling the FSFE REUSE practices
requirements at the same time.

Linus Lüssing e2d9ba4355 batman-adv: restructure rebroadcast counter into forw_packet API
This patch refactors the num_packets counter of a forw_packet in the
following three ways:

1) Removed dual-use of forw_packet::num_packets:
   -> now for aggregation purposes only
2) Using forw_packet::skb::cb::num_bcasts instead:
   -> for easier access in aggregation code later
3) make access to num_bcasts private to batadv_forw_packet_*()

Sven Eckelmann 7c946062b3 batman-adv: Fix double call of dev_queue_xmit
The net_xmit_eval has side effects because it is not making sure that e
isn't evaluated twice.

    #define net_xmit_eval(e)        ((e) == NET_XMIT_CN ? 0 : (e))

The code requested by David Miller [1]

    return net_xmit_eval(dev_queue_xmit(skb));

will get transformed into

    return ((dev_queue_xmit(skb)) == NET_XMIT_CN ? 0 : (dev_queue_xmit(skb)))

dev_queue_xmit will therefore be tried again (with an already consumed skb)
whenever the return code is not NET_XMIT_CN.

The tc could return NET_XMIT_CN as one congestion notification, but
it does not mean the packet is lost. Other modules like ipvlan,

It does not happen often, but may potentially happen when frequently
shutting down and reinitializing an interface. With some carefully
placed msleep()s/mdelay()s it can be reproduced easily.

The issue is, that on interface removal, any still running worker thread
of a forwarding packet will race with the interface purging routine to
free a forwarding packet. Temporarily giving up a spin-lock to be able
to sleep in the purging routine is not safe.

Furthermore, there is a potential general protection fault not just for
the purging side shown above, but also on the worker side: Temporarily
removing a forw_packet from the according forw_{bcast,bat}_list will make
it impossible for the purging routine to catch and cancel it.

 # How this patch tries to fix it:

With this patch we split the queue purging into three steps: Step 1),
removing forward packets from the queue of an interface and by that
claim it as our responsibility to free.

Step 2), we are either lucky to cancel a pending worker before it starts
to run. Or if it is already running, we wait and let it do its thing,
except two things:

Through the claiming in step 1) we prevent workers from a) re-arming
themselves. And b) prevent workers from freeing packets which we still
hold in the interface purging routine.

Finally, step 3, we are sure that no forwarding packets are pending or
even running anymore on the interface to remove. We can then safely free
the claimed forwarding packets.

Linus Lüssing 3111beed0d batman-adv: Simple (re)broadcast avoidance
With this patch, (re)broadcasting on a specific interfaces is avoided:

* No neighbor: There is no need to broadcast on an interface if there
  is no node behind it.

* Single neighbor is source: If there is just one neighbor on an
  interface and if this neighbor is the one we actually got this
  broadcast packet from, then we do not need to echo it back.

* Single neighbor is originator: If there is just one neighbor on
  an interface and if this neighbor is the originator of this
  broadcast packet, then we do not need to echo it back.

Goodies for BATMAN V:

("Upgrade your BATMAN IV network to V now to get these for free!")

Thanks to the split of OGMv1 into two packet types, OGMv2 and ELP
that is, we can now apply the same optimizations stated above to OGMv2
packets, too.

Furthermore, with BATMAN V, rebroadcasts can be reduced in certain
multi interface cases, too, where BATMAN IV cannot. This is thanks to
the removal of the "secondary interface originator" concept in BATMAN V.

to a place invalid for a MAC header, pointing right into the

Therefore removing this unnecessary, weird skb_reset_mac_header()

Sven Eckelmann d1fe176ca5 batman-adv: Fix speedy join in gateway client mode
Speedy join only works when the received packet is either broadcast or an
4addr unicast packet. Thus packets converted from broadcast to unicast via
the gateway handling code have to be converted to 4addr packets to allow
the receiving gateway server to add the sender address as temporary entry
to the translation table.

Not doing it will make the batman-adv gateway server drop the DHCP response
in many situations because it doesn't yet have the TT entry for the
destination of the DHCP response.

The batadv_hardif_list list is checked in many situations and the items
in this list are given to specialized functions to modify the routing
behavior. At the moment each of these called functions has to check
itself whether the received batadv_hard_iface has a refcount > 0 before
it can increase the reference counter and use it in other objects.

This can easily lead to problems because it is not easily visible where
all callers of a function got the batadv_hard_iface object from and
whether they already hold a valid reference.

Checking the reference counter directly before calling a subfunction
with a pointer from the batadv_hardif_list avoids this problem.

Antonio Quartulli 95d392784d batman-adv: keep track of when unicast packets are sent
To enable ELP to send probing packets over wireless links
only if needed, batman-adv must keep track of the last time
it sent a unicast packet towards every neighbour.

For this purpose a 2 main changes are introduced:
1) a new member of the elp_neigh_node structure stores the
   last time a unicast packet was sent towards this neighbour;
2) a wrapper function for sending unicast packets is
   implemented. This function will simply update the member
   describe din point 1) and then forward the packet to the
   real sending routine.

Point 2) implies that any code-path leading to a unicast
sending now has to use the new wrapper.

Sven Eckelmann 1e2c2a4fe4 batman-adv: Add required includes to all files
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.

Linus Lüssing 4c8755d69c batman-adv: Send multicast packets to nodes with a WANT_ALL flag
With this patch a node sends IPv4 multicast packets to nodes which
have a BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_IPV4 flag set and IPv6 multicast packets
to nodes which have a BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_IPV6 flag set, too.

Why is this needed? There are scenarios involving bridges where
multicast report snooping and multicast TT announcements are not
sufficient, which would lead to packet loss for some nodes otherwise:

MLDv1 and IGMPv1/IGMPv2 have a suppression mechanism
for multicast listener reports. When we have an MLDv1/IGMPv1/IGMPv2
querier behind a bridge then our snooping bridge is potentially not
going to see any reports even though listeners exist because according
to RFC4541 such reports are only forwarded to multicast routers:

-----------------------------------------------------------
            ---------------
{Querier}---|Snoop. Switch|----{Listener}
            ---------------
                       \           ^
                      -------
                      | br0 |  <  ???
                      -------
                          \
                     _-~---~_
                 _-~/        ~-_
                ~   batman-adv  \-----{Sender}
                \~_   cloud    ~/
                   -~~__-__-~_/

I)  MLDv1 Query:  {Querier}  -> flooded
II) MLDv1 Report: {Listener} -> {Querier}

-> br0 cannot detect the {Listener}
=> Packets from {Sender} need to be forwarded to all
   detected listeners and MLDv1/IGMPv1/IGMPv2 queriers.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Note that we do not need to explicitly forward to MLDv2/IGMPv3 queriers,
because these protocols have no report suppression: A bridge has no
trouble detecting MLDv2/IGMPv3 listeners.

Even though we do not support bridges yet we need to provide the
according infrastructure already to not break compatibility later.

Linus Lüssing 1d8ab8d3c1 batman-adv: Modified forwarding behaviour for multicast packets
With this patch a multicast packet is not always simply flooded anymore,
the behaviour for the following cases is changed to reduce
unnecessary overhead:

If all nodes within the horizon of a certain node have signalized
multicast listener announcement capability then an IPv6 multicast packet
with a destination of IPv6 link-local scope (excluding ff02::1) coming
from the upstream of this node...

* ...is dropped if there is no according multicast listener in the
  translation table,
* ...is forwarded via unicast if there is a single node with interested
  multicast listeners
* ...and otherwise still gets flooded.
