[B.A.T.M.A.N.] pull request: batman-adv 2013-03-28

[Antonio Quartulli]

here you have another batch of patches intended for net-next/linux-3.10.

The first one fixes an endianess bug in the new network coding component,
sent within our last pull request. It was discovered thanks to
Fengguang Wu's automated daily checks on our tree (we upgraded our daily
check to look for endianess bugs as well ;-))

Then you have patches from 2/11 to 8/11 implementing the RTNL API for virtual
interfaces manipulation: now users can use the "ip" tool to create/delete
batman-adv interfaces and to enslave real ones below them. However, to avoid
breaking any user tool, we did not disrupt our sysfs API.

Patch 11/11 is addressing a new checkpatch complaining by substituting seq_printf
with seq_puts when possible (however, checkpatch seems to be broken because it
raises false positives in case of multi-line seq_printf).

The rest is ordinary house keeping.


Please pull or let me know if there is any problem!

Thank you,
	Antonio

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 01/11] batman-adv: Fix endianness errors for network coding

[Antonio Quartulli]

From: Martin Hundebøll <martin@hundeboll.net>

Add a htonl() in network_coding.c when reading the sequence number
from received ogm_packet, to avoid wrong byte ordering when comparing
with a host value. This bug was introduced in
3ed7ada3f0bbcd058567bc0a8f9729a73eba7db6 ("batman-adv: network coding -
detect coding nodes and remove these after timeout").

Change the type of coded_packet->coded_len from uint16 to __be16 to
avoid wrong assumptions about endianness in later uses. Introduced in
c3289f3650d34b60296000a629c99f2488f7c3dd ("batman-adv: network coding -
code and transmit packets if possible").

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 02/11] batman-adv: Move soft-interface initialization to ndo_init

[Antonio Quartulli]

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

The initialization of an net_device object should be done in the
init/constructor function and not from the outside after the register_netdevice
was done to avoid race conditions.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 04/11] batman-adv: Don't always delete softif when last slave was removed

[Antonio Quartulli]

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

batman-adv has an unusual way to manage softinterfaces. These will be created
automatically when a user writes to the batman-adv/mesh_iface file in sysfs and
removed when no slave device exists anymore.

This behaviour cannot be changed without breaking compatibility with existing
code. Instead other interfaces should be able to slightly reduce this behaviour
and provide a more common reaction to a removal of a slave interface.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 06/11] batman-adv: Allow to use rntl_link for device creation/deletion

[Antonio Quartulli]

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

The sysfs configuration interface of batman-adv to add/remove soft-interfaces
is not deadlock free and doesn't follow the currently common way to create new
virtual interfaces.

An additional interface though rtnl_link is introduced which provides easy device
creation/deletion with tools like "ip":

$ ip link add dev bat0 type batadv
$ ip link del dev bat0

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 08/11] batman-adv: free an hard-interface before adding it

[Antonio Quartulli]

When adding a new hard interface (e.g. wlan0) to a soft interface (e.g. bat0)
and the former is already enslaved in another virtual interface (e.g. a software
bridge) batman-adv has to free it first and then continue with the adding
mechanism.

In this way the behaviour becomes consistent with what "ip link set master"
does. At the moment batman-adv enslaves the hard interface without checking for
the master device, possibly causing strange behaviours which are never wanted by
the users.
