Rasmus Villemoes b7a8d756fb batman-adv: replace strnicmp with strncasecmp
The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited,
case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics and
a slightly buggy strncasecmp.  The latter is the POSIX name, so strnicmp
was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper for the new
strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.

To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in the
future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do
s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.

Sven Eckelmann e050dbeb0d batman-adv: Fix parameter order of hlist_add_behind
1d023284c3 ("list: fix order of arguments for
hlist_add_after(_rcu)") was incorrectly rebased on top of
d9124268d8 ("batman-adv: Fix out-of-order
fragmentation support"). The parameter order change of the rebased patch was
not re-applied as expected. This causes a memory leak and can cause crashes
when out-of-order packets are received. hlist_add_behind will try to access the
uninitalized list pointers of frag_entry_new to find the previous/next entry
and may modify/read random memory locations.

Ken Helias 1d023284c3 list: fix order of arguments for hlist_add_after(_rcu)
All other add functions for lists have the new item as first argument
and the position where it is added as second argument.  This was changed
for no good reason in this function and makes using it unnecessary
confusing.

The name was changed to hlist_add_behind() to cause unconverted code to
generate a compile error instead of using the wrong parameter order.

Simon Wunderlich e03366ea6b batman-adv: increase default hop penalty
The default hop penalty is currently set to 15, which is applied like
that for multi interface devices (e.g. dual band APs). Single band
devices will still use an effective penalty of 30 (hop penalty + wifi
penalty).

After receiving reports of too long paths in mesh networks with dual
band APs which were fixed by increasing the hop penalty, we'd like to
suggest to increase that default value in the default setting as well.
We've evaluated that increase in a handful of medium sized mesh
networks (5-20 nodes) with single and dual band devices, with changes
for the better (shorter routes, higher throughput) or no change at all.

This patch changes the hop penalty to 30, which will give an effective
penalty of 60 on single band devices (hop penalty + wifi penalty).

Sven Eckelmann d9124268d8 batman-adv: Fix out-of-order fragmentation support
batadv_frag_insert_packet was unable to handle out-of-order packets because it
dropped them directly. This is caused by the way the fragmentation lists is
checked for the correct place to insert a fragmentation entry.

The fragmentation code keeps the fragments in lists. The fragmentation entries
are kept in descending order of sequence number. The list is traversed and each
entry is compared with the new fragment. If the current entry has a smaller
sequence number than the new fragment then the new one has to be inserted
before the current entry. This ensures that the list is still in descending
order.

An out-of-order packet with a smaller sequence number than all entries in the
list still has to be added to the end of the list. The used hlist has no
information about the last entry in the list inside hlist_head and thus the
last entry has to be calculated differently. Currently the code assumes that
the iterator variable of hlist_for_each_entry can be used for this purpose
after the hlist_for_each_entry finished. This is obviously wrong because the
iterator variable is always NULL when the list was completely traversed.

Instead the information about the last entry has to be stored in a different
variable.

This problem was introduced in 610bfc6bc9
("batman-adv: Receive fragmented packets and merge").

Antonio Quartulli 35df3b298f batman-adv: fix TT VLAN inconsistency on VLAN re-add
When a VLAN interface (on top of batX) is removed and
re-added within a short timeframe TT does not have enough
time to properly cleanup. This creates an internal TT state
mismatch as the newly created softif_vlan will be
initialized from scratch with a TT client count of zero
(even if TT entries for this VLAN still exist). The
resulting TT messages are bogus due to the counter / tt
client listing mismatch, thus creating inconsistencies on
every node in the network

To fix this issue destroy_vlan() has to not free the VLAN
object immediately but it has to be kept alive until all the
TT entries for this VLAN have been removed. destroy_vlan()
still removes the sysfs folder so that the user has the
feeling that everything went fine.

If the same VLAN is re-added before the old object is free'd,
then the latter is resurrected and re-used.

Implement such behaviour by increasing the reference counter
of a softif_vlan object every time a new local TT entry for
such VLAN is created and remove the object from the list
only when all the TT entries have been destroyed.

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}
            ---------------
                       \           ^
                      -------

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 ab49886e3d batman-adv: Add IPv4 link-local/IPv6-ll-all-nodes multicast support
With this patch a node may additionally perform the dropping or
unicasting behaviour for a link-local IPv4 and link-local-all-nodes
IPv6 multicast packet, too.

The extra counter and BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_UNSNOOPABLES flag is needed
because with a future bridge snooping support integration a node with a
bridge on top of its soft interface is not able to reliably detect its
multicast listeners for IPv4 link-local and the IPv6
link-local-all-nodes addresses anymore (see RFC4541, section 2.1.2.2
and section 3).

Even though this new flag does make "no difference" now, it'll ensure
a seamless integration of multicast bridge support without needing to
break compatibility later.

Also note, that even with multicast bridge support it won't be possible
to optimize 224.0.0.x and ff02::1 towards nodes with bridges, they will
always receive these ranges.

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.

Our .ndo_start_xmit handler (batadv_interface_tx()) can rely on having
the skb mac header pointer set correctly since the following commit
present in kernels >= 3.9:

"net: reset mac header in dev_start_xmit()" (6d1ccff627)

Therefore this commit removes the according, now redundant,
skb_reset_mac_header() call in batadv_bla_tx().

the skb mac header pointer set correctly since the following commit
present in kernels >= 3.9:

"net: reset mac header in dev_start_xmit()" (6d1ccff627)

Therefore we can safely use eth_hdr() and vlan_eth_hdr() instead of
skb->data now, which spares us some ugly type casts.

At the same time set the mac_header in batadv_dat_snoop_incoming_arp_request()
before sending the skb along the TX path.
