batman-adv: Fix includes for *_MAX constants

2019-05-25T10:59:53+00:00

The commit 54d50897d544 ("linux/kernel.h: split *_MAX and *_MIN macros into
") moved the U32_MAX/INT_MAX/ULONG_MAX from linux/kernel.h
to linux/limits.h. Adjust the includes accordingly.

Minor comment merge conflict in mlx5.

Staging driver has a fixup due to the skb->xmit_more changes

batman-adv: Warn about sysfs file access

2019-03-25T09:01:12+00:00

The sysfs files to read and modify the configuration settings were replaced
by the batadv generic netlink family. They are also marked as obsolete in
the ABI documentation. But not all users of this functionality might follow
changes in the Documentation/ABI/obsolete/ folder. They might benefit from
a warning messages about the deprecation of the functionality which they
just tried to access

  batman_adv: [Deprecated]: batctl (pid 30381) Use of sysfs file "orig_interval".
  Use batadv genl family instead

batman-adv: Make sysfs support optional

2019-03-25T09:01:11+00:00

The sysfs files will be marked as deprecated in the near future. They are
already replaced by the batadv generic netlink family. Add an Kconfig
option to disable the sysfs support for users who want to test their tools
or want to safe some space. This setting should currently still be enabled
by default to keep backward compatible with legacy tools.

batman-adv: Fix genl notification for throughput_override

2019-03-25T08:31:19+00:00

The throughput_override sysfs file is not below the meshif but below a
hardif. The kobj has therefore not a pointer which can be used to find the
batadv_priv data. The pointer stored in the hardif object must be used
instead to find the correct meshif private data.

batman-adv: Trigger genl notification on sysfs config change

2019-02-09T13:28:15+00:00

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
also trigger the corresponding netlink messages via the "config" multicast
group.

batman-adv: Add gateway mesh genl configuration

2019-02-09T13:28:14+00:00

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
mesh has to select (based on sel_class thresholds) a responsible gateway
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.

The BATADV_CMD_SET_MESH/BATADV_CMD_GET_MESH commands allow to set/get the
configuration of this feature using the attributes:

* u8 BATADV_ATTR_GW_MODE (0 == off, 1 == client, 2 == server)
* u32 BATADV_ATTR_GW_BANDWIDTH_DOWN (in 100 kbit/s steps)
* u32 BATADV_ATTR_GW_BANDWIDTH_UP (in 100 kbit/s steps)
* u32 BATADV_ATTR_GW_SEL_CLASS

batman-adv: Fix segfault when writing to sysfs elp_interval

2018-09-06T11:54:48+00:00

The per hardif sysfs file "batman_adv/elp_interval" is using the generic
functions to store/show uint values. The helper __batadv_store_uint_attr
requires the softif net_device as parameter to print the resulting change
as info text when the users writes to this file. It uses the helper
function batadv_info to add it at the same time to the kernel ring buffer
and to the batman-adv debug log (when CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG is enabled).

The function batadv_info requires as first parameter the batman-adv softif
net_device. This parameter is then used to find the private buffer which
contains the debug log for this batman-adv interface. But
batadv_store_throughput_override used as first argument the slave
net_device. This slave device doesn't have the batadv_priv private data
which is access by batadv_info.

Writing to this file with CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG enabled can either lead
to a segfault or to memory corruption.
