The function batadv_bla_backbone_dump_bucket must be able to handle
non-complete dumps of a single bucket. It tries to do that by saving the
latest dumped index in *idx_skip to inform the caller about the current
state.

But the caller only assumes that buckets were not completely dumped when
the return code is non-zero. This function must therefore also return a
non-zero index when the dumping of an entry failed. Otherwise the caller
will just skip all remaining buckets.

And the function must also reset *idx_skip back to zero when it finished a
bucket. Otherwise it will skip the same number of entries in the next
bucket as the previous one had.

batman-adv: handle race condition for claims between gateways 2018-03-22T08:17:41+00:00 Andreas Pape APape@phoenixcontact.com 2016-09-05T11:20:29+00:00 1fb9c2f41e199e97b811981901d9de4a9d7729bf [ Upstream commit a3a5129e122709306cfa6409781716c2933df99b ] Consider the following situation which has been found in a test setup: Gateway B has claimed client C and gateway A has the same backbone network as B. C sends a broad- or multicast to B and directly after this packet decides to send another packet to A due to a better TQ value. B will forward the broad-/multicast into the backbone as it is the responsible gw and after that A will claim C as it has been chosen by C as the best gateway. If it now happens that A claims C before it has received the broad-/multicast forwarded by B (due to backbone topology or due to some delay in B when forwarding the packet) we get a critical situation: in the current code A will immediately unclaim C when receiving the multicast due to the roaming client scenario although the position of C has not changed in the mesh. If this happens the multi-/broadcast forwarded by B will be sent back into the mesh by A and we have looping packets until one of the gateways claims C again. In order to prevent this, unclaiming of a client due to the roaming client scenario is only done after a certain time is expired after the last claim of the client. 100 ms are used here, which should be slow enough for big backbones and slow gateways but fast enough not to break the roaming client use case.

Gateway B has claimed client C and gateway A has the same backbone
network as B. C sends a broad- or multicast to B and directly after
this packet decides to send another packet to A due to a better TQ
value. B will forward the broad-/multicast into the backbone as it is

will be sent back into the mesh by A and we have looping packets

In order to prevent this, unclaiming of a client due to the roaming
client scenario is only done after a certain time is expired after
the last claim of the client. 100 ms are used here, which should be
