batman-adv: Remove unnecessary hardif_list_lock

2011-05-08T14:10:41+00:00

hardif_list_lock is unneccessary because we already ensure that no
multiple admin operations can take place through rtnl_lock.
hardif_list_lock only adds additional overhead and complexity.

Critical functions now check whether they are called with rtnl_lock
using ASSERT_RTNL.

It indirectly fixes the problem that orig_hash_del_if() expects that
only one interface is deleted from hardif_list at a time, but
hardif_remove_interfaces() removes all at once and then calls
orig_hash_del_if().

batman-adv: multi vlan support for bridge loop detection

2011-05-08T14:10:41+00:00

The bridge loop detection for batman-adv allows the bat0 interface
to be bridged into an ethernet segment which other batman-adv nodes
are connected to. In order to also allow multiple VLANs on top of
the bat0 interface to be bridged into the ethernet segment this
patch extends the aforementioned bridge loop detection.

batman-adv: rename global if_list to hardif_list

2011-03-05T11:52:05+00:00

Batman-adv works with "hard interfaces" as well as "soft interfaces".
The new name should better make clear which kind of interfaces this
list stores.

batman-adv: separate ethernet comparing calls from hash functions

2011-03-05T11:50:14+00:00

Note: The function compare_ether_addr() provided by the Linux kernel
requires aligned memory.

batman-adv: Remove duplicate types.h inclusions

2011-02-11T22:30:29+00:00

types.h is included by main.h, which is included at the beginning of any
other c-file anyway. Therefore this commit removes those duplicate
inclussions.

net: Add batman-adv meshing protocol

2010-12-16T21:44:24+00:00

B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking) is a routing
protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks. The networks may be wired or
wireless. See http://www.open-mesh.org/ for more information and user space
tools.
