Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] Missing patches in net-next
Date: Mon, 21 Dec 2015 10:39:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2074355.MrCHDIHgv1@sven-desktop> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 4159 bytes --]

Hi,

it seems a bunch of patches are missing in net-next from batman-adv next's
branch.

An incorrect lockdep_assert was fixed to refer to the correct lock. The
flag FIRST_HOP was dropped because it is not used anymore in the batman-adv
compat version 15. The bridge loop avoidance code will now cleanup its
internal state when it gets disabled. This is required to reset itself in
case it gets restarted again. Also the behavior when the user tries to
enable the already started bridge loop avoidance was modified to just
ignore this trigger. It was also tuned to better cope with networks
using very lossy links.

The rest are only contain minor cleanups of the code, updates of the
documentation and kerneldoc inside the batman-adv source code.

Kind regards,
	Sven

Subject: [PATCH 04/28] batman-adv: purge bridge loop avoidance when its
 disabled

When bridge loop avoidance is disabled through sysfs, the internal
datastructures are not disabled, but only BLA operations are disabled.
To be sure that they are removed, purge the data immediately. That is
especially useful if a firmwares network state is changed, and the BLA
wait periods should restart on the new network.

Subject: [PATCH 05/28] batman-adv: increase BLA wait periods to 6

If networks take a long time to come up, e.g. due to lossy links, then
the bridge loop avoidance wait time to suppress broadcasts may not wait
long enough and detect a backbone before the mesh is brought up.
Increasing the wait period further to 60 seconds makes this scenario
less likely.

From 909e1ded2e7bdd27b69fd97643d251360cf9a4f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2015 08:04:43 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 08/28] batman-adv: Delete unnecessary checks before the
 function call "kfree_skb"

The kfree_skb() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the calls is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Subject: [PATCH 09/28] batman-adv: Less checks in batadv_tvlv_unicast_send()

* Let us return directly if a call of the batadv_orig_hash_find() function
  returned a null pointer.

* Omit the initialisation for the variable "skb" at the beginning.

* Replace an assignment by a call of the kfree_skb() function
  and delete the affected variable "ret" then.
