batman-adv: mcast: fix memory leak on deleting a batman-adv interface

2024-01-27T08:13:39+00:00

The batman-adv multicast tracker TVLV handler is registered for the
new batman-adv multicast packet type upon creating a batman-adv interface,
but not unregistered again upon the interface's deletion, leading to a
memory leak.

Fix this memory leak by calling the according TVLV handler unregister
routine for the multicast tracker TVLV upon batman-adv interface
deletion.

batman-adv: mcast: fix mcast packet type counter on timeouted nodes

2024-01-27T08:13:39+00:00

When a node which does not have the new batman-adv multicast packet type
capability vanishes then the according, global counter erroneously would
not be reduced in response on other nodes. Which in turn leads to the mesh
never switching back to sending with the new multicast packet type.

Fix this by reducing the according counter when such a node times out.

batman-adv: mcast: shrink tracker packet after scrubbing

2023-11-14T07:16:34+00:00

Remove all zero MAC address entries (00:00:00:00:00:00) from a multicast
packet's tracker TVLV before transmitting it and update all headers
accordingly. This way, instead of keeping the multicast packet at a
constant size throughout its journey through the mesh, it will become
more lightweight, smaller with every interested receiver on the way and
on each splitting intersection. Which can save some valuable bandwidth.

batman-adv: mcast: implement multicast packet generation

2023-11-14T07:16:34+00:00

Implement the preparation of a batman-adv multicast packet and use this
under certain conditions.

For one thing this implements the capability to push a complete
batman-adv multicast packet header, including a tracker TVLV with all
originator destinations that have signaled interest in it, onto a given
ethernet frame with an IP multicast packet inside.

For another checks are implemented to determine if encapsulating a
multicast packet in this new batman-adv multicast packet type and using
it is feasible. Those checks are:

1) Have all nodes signaled that they are capable of handling the new
   batman-adv multicast packet type?
2) Do all active hard interfaces of all nodes, including us, have an MTU
   of at least 1280 bytes?
3) Does a complete multicast packet header with all its destination
   addresses fit onto the given multicast packet / ethernet frame and
   does not exceed 1280 bytes?

If all checks passed then the new batman-adv multicast packet type will
be used for transmission and distribution. Otherwise we fall back to one or
more batman-adv unicast packet transmissions, if possible. Or if not
possible we will fall back to classic flooding through a batman-adv
broadcast packet.

batman-adv: mcast: implement multicast packet reception and forwarding

2023-11-14T07:16:34+00:00

Implement functionality to receive and forward a new TVLV capable
multicast packet type.

The new batman-adv multicast packet type allows to contain several
originator destination addresses within a TVLV. Routers on the way will
potentially split the batman-adv multicast packet and adjust its tracker
TVLV contents.

Routing decisions are still based on the selected BATMAN IV or BATMAN V
routing algorithm. So this new batman-adv multicast packet type retains
the same loop-free properties.

Also a new OGM multicast TVLV flag is introduced to signal to other
nodes that we are capable of handling a batman-adv multicast packet and
multicast tracker TVLV. And that all of our hard interfaces have an MTU
of at least 1280 bytes (IPv6 minimum MTU), as a simple solution for now
to avoid MTU issues while forwarding.

batman-adv: Start new development cycle

2023-11-14T07:16:34+00:00

This version will contain all the (major or even only minor) changes for
Linux 6.8.

The version number isn't a semantic version number with major and minor
information. It is just encoding the year of the expected publishing as
Linux -rc1 and the number of published versions this year (starting at 0).

batman-adv: Hold rtnl lock during MTU update via netlink

2023-08-23T00:25:10+00:00

The automatic recalculation of the maximum allowed MTU is usually triggered
by code sections which are already rtnl lock protected by callers outside
of batman-adv. But when the fragmentation setting is changed via
batman-adv's own batadv genl family, then the rtnl lock is not yet taken.

But dev_set_mtu requires that the caller holds the rtnl lock because it
uses netdevice notifiers. And this code will then fail the check for this
lock:

  RTNL: assertion failed at net/core/dev.c (1953)
