* [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCHv3 net-next 1/4] bridge: rename struct bridge_mcast_query/querier
@ 2014-06-02 18:07 Linus Lüssing
  2014-06-02 18:07 ` [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCHv3 net-next 2/4] bridge: adhere to querier election mechanism specified by RFCs Linus Lüssing
                   ` (3 more replies)

From: Linus Lüssing @ 2014-06-02 18:07 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: netdev
  Cc: b.a.t.m.a.n, Herbert Xu, bridge, linux-kernel, Stephen Hemminger,
	David S. Miller

The current naming of these two structs is very random, in that
reversing their naming would not make any semantical difference.

This patch tries to make the naming less confusing by giving them a more
specific, distinguishable naming.

This is also useful for the upcoming patches reintroducing the
"struct bridge_mcast_querier" but for storing information about the
selected querier (no matter if our own or a foreign querier).

	David S. Miller

MLDv1 (RFC2710 section 6), MLDv2 (RFC3810 section 7.6.2), IGMPv2
(RFC2236 section 3) and IGMPv3 (RFC3376 section 6.6.2) specify that the
querier with lowest source address shall become the selected
querier.

So far the bridge stopped its querier as soon as it heard another
querier regardless of its source address. This results in the "wrong"
querier potentially becoming the active querier or a potential,
unnecessary querying delay.

With this patch the bridge memorizes the source address of the currently
selected querier and ignores queries from queriers with a higher source
address than the currently selected one. This slight optimization is
supposed to make it more RFC compliant (but is rather uncritical and
therefore probably not necessary to be queued for stable kernels).

With this new, exported function br_multicast_list_adjacent(net_dev) a
list of IPv4/6 addresses is returned. This list contains all multicast
addresses sensed by the bridge multicast snooping feature on all bridge
ports of the bridge interface of net_dev, excluding addresses from the
specified net_device itself.

Adding bridge support to the batman-adv multicast optimization requires
batman-adv knowing about the existence of bridged-in multicast
listeners to be able to reliably serve them with multicast packets.

This is not a sufficient header posting.

You must also describe at a high level what this patch series is
doing, and why you are doing it.

Oh, I'm sorry, I thought it'd only be necessary for the v1
patchset. Going to change that from now on. Anyways, here it is
(copied 'n' pasted):

-----

The first patch is simply a cosmetic patch. So far I (and maybe others
too?) have been regularly confusing these two structs, therefore I'd
suggest renaming them and therefore making the follow-up patches easier
to understand and nicer to fit in.

The second patch fixes a minor issue, but probably not worth for stable.


On the other hand the first two patches are also preparations for the
third and fourth patch:

These two patches are exporting functionality needed to marry the bridge
multicast snooping with the batman-adv multicast optimizations recently
added for the 3.15 kernel, allowing to use these optimzations in common
setups having a bridge on top of e.g. bat0, too. So far these bridged
setups would fall back to simple flooding through the batman-adv mesh
network for any multicast packet entering bat0.

More information about the batman-adv multicast optimizations currently
implemented can be found here:

http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Basic-multicast-optimizations

The integration on the batman-adv side could afterwards look like this,
for instance:

http://git.open-mesh.org/batman-adv.git/commitdiff/576b59dd3e34737c702e548b21fa72059262f796?hp=f95ce7131746c65fbcdffcf2089cab59e2c2f7ac

When I ask for changes, you need to make a new fresh submission
of your patch(s).
