This version will contain all the (major or even only minor) changes for
Linux 5.15.

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).

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

Due to recent developments around the Freenode.org IRC network, the
opinions about the usage of this service shifted dramatically. The majority
of the still active users of the #batman channel prefers a move to the
hackint.org network.

* [PATCH 4/6] batman-adv: Check ptr for NULL before reducing its refcnt

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

The commit b37a46683739 ("netdevice: add the case if dev is NULL") changed
the way how the NULL check for net_devices have to be handled when trying
to reduce its reference counter. Before this commit, it was the
responsibility of the caller to check whether the object is NULL or not.
But it was changed to behave more like kfree. Now the callee has to handle
the NULL-case.

The batman-adv code was scanned via cocinelle for similar places. These
were changed to use the paradigm

  @@
  identifier E, T, R, C;
  identifier put;
  @@
   void put(struct T *E)
   {
  +	if (!E)
  +		return;
  	kref_put(&E->C, R);
   }

Functions which were used in other sources files were moved to the header
to allow the compiler to inline the NULL check and the kref_put call.

* [PATCH 5/6] batman-adv: Drop NULL check before dropping references

  To: kuba, davem; +Cc: netdev, b.a.t.m.a.n, Sven Eckelmann, Simon Wunderlich

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

The check if a batman-adv related object is NULL or not is now directly in
the batadv_*_put functions. It is not needed anymore to perform this check
outside these function:

The changes were generated using a coccinelle semantic patch:

* [PATCH 6/6] batman-adv: bcast: remove remaining skb-copy calls

From: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@c0d3.blue>

We currently have two code paths for broadcast packets:

A) self-generated, via batadv_interface_tx()->
   batadv_send_bcast_packet().
B) received/forwarded, via batadv_recv_bcast_packet()->
   batadv_forw_bcast_packet().

For A), self-generated broadcast packets:

The only modifications to the skb data is the ethernet header which is
added/pushed to the skb in
batadv_send_broadcast_skb()->batadv_send_skb_packet(). However before
doing so, batadv_skb_head_push() is called which calls skb_cow_head() to
unshare the space for the to be pushed ethernet header. So for this
case, it is safe to use skb clones.

For B), received/forwarded packets:

The same applies as in A) for the to be forwarded packets. Only the
ethernet header is added. However after (queueing for) forwarding the
packet in batadv_recv_bcast_packet()->batadv_forw_bcast_packet(), a
packet is additionally decapsulated and is sent up the stack through
batadv_recv_bcast_packet()->batadv_interface_rx().

Protocols higher up the stack are already required to check if the
packet is shared and create a copy for further modifications. When the
next (protocol) layer works correctly, it cannot happen that it tries to
operate on the data behind the skb clone which is still queued up for
forwarding.

Due to recent developments around the Freenode.org IRC network, the
opinions about the usage of this service shifted dramatically. The majority
of the still active users of the #batman channel prefers a move to the
hackint.org network.
