Currently incoming ARP Replies, for example via a DHT-PUT message, do
not update the timeout for an already existing DAT entry. These ARP
Replies are dropped instead.
This however defeats the purpose of the DHCPACK snooping, for instance.
Right now, a DAT entry in the DHT will be purged every five minutes,
likely leading to a mesh-wide ARP Request broadcast after this timeout.
Which then recreates the entry. The idea of the DHCPACK snooping is to
be able to update an entry before a timeout happens, to avoid ARP Request
flooding.
This patch fixes this issue by updating a DAT entry on incoming
ARP Replies even if a matching DAT entry already exists. While still
filtering the ARP Reply towards the soft-interface, to avoid duplicate
messages on the client device side.

The send functions in batman-adv are expected to consume the skb when
either the data is queued up for the underlying driver or when some
precondition failed. batadv_dat_send_data didn't do this and instead
created a copy of the skb, modified it and queued the copy up for
transmission. The caller has to take care that the skb is handled correctly
(for example free'd) when batadv_dat_send_data returns.
This unclear behavior already lead to memory leaks in the recent past.
Renaming the function to batadv_dat_forward_data should make it easier to
identify that the data is forwarded but the skb is not actually
send+consumed.

The netfilter conflicts were rather simple overlapping
changes.
However, the cls_tcindex.c stuff was a bit more complex.
On the 'net' side, Cong is fixing several races and memory
leaks. Whilst on the 'net-next' side we have Vlad adding
the rtnl-ness support.
What I've decided to do, in order to resolve this, is revert the
conversion over to using a workqueue that Cong did, bringing us back
to pure RCU. I did it this way because I believe that either Cong's
races don't apply with have Vlad did things, or Cong will have to
implement the race fix slightly differently.

The generic netlink code is expected to trigger notification messages when
configuration might have been changed. But the configuration of batman-adv
is most of the time still done using sysfs. So the sysfs interface should

The mesh/soft-interface can optimize the handling of DHCP packets. Instead
of flooding them through the whole mesh, it can be forwarded as unicast to
a specific gateway server. The originator which injects the packets in the

server. This is done by switching this originator to the gw_mode client.
The servers announce their forwarding bandwidth (download/upload) when the
gw_mode server was selected.

With the addition of TXQ stats in the per-tid statistics the struct
station_info grew significantly. This resulted in stack size warnings
due to the structure itself being above the limit for the warnings.
To work around this, the TID array was allocated dynamically. Also a

This patch refactors ip_mc_check_igmp(), ipv6_mc_check_mld() and
their callers (more precisely, the Linux bridge) to not rely on
the skb_trimmed parameter anymore.
An skb with its tail trimmed to the IP packet length was initially
introduced for the following three reasons:
1) To be able to verify the ICMPv6 checksum.
2) To be able to distinguish the version of an IGMP or MLD query.
They are distinguishable only by their size.
3) To avoid parsing data for an IGMPv3 or MLDv2 report that is
beyond the IP packet but still within the skb.
The first case still uses a cloned and potentially trimmed skb to
verfiy. However, there is no need to propagate it to the caller.
For the second and third case explicit IP packet length checks were
added.
This hopefully makes ip_mc_check_igmp() and ipv6_mc_check_mld() easier
to read and verfiy, as well as easier to use.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

The caller of ndo_start_xmit may not already have called
skb_reset_mac_header. The returned value of skb_mac_header/eth_hdr
therefore can be in the wrong position and even outside the current skbuff.
This for example happens when the user binds to the device using a
PF_PACKET-SOCK_RAW with enabled qdisc-bypass:
int opt = 4;
setsockopt(sock, SOL_PACKET, PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS, &opt, sizeof(opt));
Since eth_hdr is used all over the codebase, the batadv_interface_tx
function must always take care of resetting it.

In a 1000 nodes mesh network (Freifunk Hamburg) we can still see
30KBit/s of ARP traffic (equalling about 25% of all layer two
specific overhead, remaining after some filtering) flooded through
the mesh. These 30KBit/s are mainly ARP Requests from the
gateways / DHCP servers.
By snooping DHCPACKs we can learn about MAC/IP address pairs
in the DHCP range without relying on ARP. This patch is in preparation
to eliminate the need for mesh wide message flooding for IPv4 address
resolution.
Also this allows to quickly update a MAC/IP pair at least in the DHT when
DHCP reassigns an IP address to a new host.

It is not allowed to use WARN* helpers on potential incorrect input from
the user or transient problems because systems configured as panic_on_warn
will reboot due to such a problem.
A NULL return value of __dev_get_by_index can be caused by various problems
which can either be related to the system configuration or problems
(incorrectly returned network namespaces) in other (virtual) net_device
drivers. batman-adv should not cause a (harmful) WARN in this situation and
instead only report it via a simple message.
Fixes: b7eddd0b39 ("batman-adv: prevent using any virtual device created on batman-adv as hard-interface")

Thanks to rigorous testing in wireless community mesh networks several
issues with multicast entries in the translation table were found and
fixed in the last 1.5 years. Now we see the first larger networks
(a few hundred nodes) with a batman-adv version with multicast
optimizations enabled arising, with no TT / multicast optimization
related issues so far.
Therefore it seems safe to enable multicast optimizations by default.

The commit ced72933a5 ("batman-adv: use CRC32C instead of CRC16 in TT
code") switched the translation table code from crc16 to crc32c. The
(optional) bridge loop avoidance code is the only user of this function.
batman-adv should only select CRC16 when it is actually using it.

The netlink dump functionality transfers a large number of entries from the
kernel to userspace. It is rather likely that the transfer has to
interrupted and later continued. During that time, it can happen that
either new entries are added or removed. The userspace could than either
receive some entries multiple times or miss entries.
Commit 670dc2833d ("netlink: advertise incomplete dumps") introduced a
mechanism to inform userspace about this problem. Userspace can then decide
whether it is necessary or not to retry dumping the information again.
The netlink dump functions have to be switched to exclusive locks to avoid
changes while the current message is prepared. The already existing
generation sequence counter from the hash helper can be used for this
simple hash.

Multiple datastructures use the hash helper functions to add and remove
entries from the simple hlist based hashes. These are often also dumped to
userspace via netlink and thus should have a generation sequence counter.
