Simon Wunderlich 03fd39ed5a batman-adv: Start new development cycle
This version will contain all the (major or even only minor) changes for
Linux 5.12.

The version number isn't a semantic version number with major and minor
information. It is just encoding the year of the expected publishing as
Linux -rc1 and the number of published versions this year (starting at 0).

Sven Eckelmann 68a600de9a batman-adv: Use includes instead of fwdecls
While it can be slightly beneficial for the build performance to use
forward declarations instead of includes, the handling of them together
with changes in the included headers makes it unnecessary complicated and
fragile. Just replace them with actual includes since some parts (hwmon,
..) of the kernel even request avoidance of forward declarations and net/
is mostly not using them in *.c file.

Sven Eckelmann 0fa4c30d71 batman-adv: Make sysfs support optional
The sysfs files will be marked as deprecated in the near future. They are
already replaced by the batadv generic netlink family. Add an Kconfig
option to disable the sysfs support for users who want to test their tools
or want to safe some space. This setting should currently still be enabled
by default to keep backward compatible with legacy tools.

Sven Eckelmann fb69be6979 batman-adv: Add inconsistent hardif netlink dump detection
The netlink dump functionality transfers a large number of entries from the
kernel to userspace. It is rather likely that the transfer has to
interrupted and later continued. During that time, it can happen that
either new entries are added or removed. The userspace could than either
receive some entries multiple times or miss entries.

Commit 670dc2833d ("netlink: advertise incomplete dumps") introduced a
mechanism to inform userspace about this problem. Userspace can then decide
whether it is necessary or not to retry dumping the information again.

The netlink dump functions have to be switched to exclusive locks to avoid
changes while the current message is prepared. And an external generation
sequence counter is introduced which tracks all modifications of the list.

The header file is used by different userspace programs to inject packets
or to decode sniffed packets. It should therefore be available to them as
userspace header.

Also other components in the kernel (like the flow dissector) require

packets.

The FSFE REUSE practices [1] would also require the same tags but have no

Matthias Schiffer 8ea026b160 batman-adv: decrease maximum fragment size
With this patch the maximum fragment size is reduced from 1400 to 1280
bytes.

Fragmentation v2 correctly uses the smaller of 1400 and the interface
MTU, thus generally supporting interfaces with an MTU < 1400 bytes, too.

However, currently "Fragmentation v2" does not support re-fragmentation.
Which means that once a packet is split into two packets of 1400 + x
bytes for instance and the next hop provides an interface with an even
smaller MTU of 1280 bytes, then the larger fragment is lost.

A maximum fragment size of 1280 bytes is a safer option as this is the
minimum MTU required by IPv6, making interfaces with an MTU < 1280
rather exotic.

Regarding performance, this should have no negative impact on unicast
traffic: Having some more bytes in the smaller and some less in the
larger does not change the sum of both fragments.

Concerning TT, choosing 1280 bytes fragments might result in more TT
messages than necessary when a large network is bridged into batman-adv.
However, the TT overhead in general is marginal due to its reactive
nature, therefore such a performance impact on TT should not be
noticeable for a user.

Linus Lüssing cbebd363b2 batman-adv: Use own timer for multicast TT and TVLV updates
Instead of latching onto the OGM period, this patch introduces a worker
dedicated to multicast TT and TVLV updates.

The reasoning is, that upon roaming especially the translation table
should be updated timely to minimize connectivity issues.

With BATMAN V, the idea is to greatly increase the OGM interval to
reduce overhead. Unfortunately, right now this could lead to
a bad user experience if multicast traffic is involved.

Therefore this patch introduces a fixed 500ms update interval for
multicast TT entries and the multicast TVLV.

Antonio Quartulli 33a3bb4a33 batman-adv: throughput meter implementation
The throughput meter module is a simple, kernel-space replacement for
throughtput measurements tool like iperf and netperf. It is intended to
approximate TCP behaviour.

It is invoked through batctl: the protocol is connection oriented, with
cumulative acknowledgment and a dynamic-size sliding window.

The test *can* be interrupted by batctl. A receiver side timeout avoids
unlimited waitings for sender packets: after one second of inactivity, the
receiver abort the ongoing test.

Based on a prototype from Edo Monticelli <montik@autistici.org>
