* batman-adv: Revert "disable ethtool link speed detection when auto ↵Sven Eckelmann2020-06-221-14/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | negotiation off" [ Upstream commit 9ad346c90509ebd983f60da7d082f261ad329507 ] The commit 8c46fcd78308 ("batman-adv: disable ethtool link speed detection when auto negotiation off") disabled the usage of ethtool's link_ksetting when auto negotation was enabled due to invalid values when used with tun/tap virtual net_devices. According to the patch, automatic measurements should be used for these kind of interfaces. But there are major flaws with this argumentation: * automatic measurements are not implemented * auto negotiation has nothing to do with the validity of the retrieved values The first point has to be fixed by a longer patch series. The "validity" part of the second point must be addressed in the same patch series by dropping the usage of ethtool's link_ksetting (thus always doing automatic measurements over ethernet). Drop the patch again to have more default values for various net_device types/configurations. The user can still overwrite them using the batadv_hardif's BATADV_ATTR_THROUGHPUT_OVERRIDE.

* batman-adv: release station info tidstatsFelix Fietkau2019-03-131-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 7d652669b61d702c6e62a39579d17f6881670ab6 ] 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 function to free this content was introduced with commit 7ea3e110f2f8 ("cfg80211: release station info tidstats where needed") but the necessary changes were not provided for batman-adv's B.A.T.M.A.N.

* batman-adv: Use explicit tvlv padding for ELP packetsSven Eckelmann2018-12-131-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit f4156f9656feac21f4de712fac94fae964c5d402 ] The announcement messages of batman-adv COMPAT_VERSION 15 have the possibility to announce additional information via a dynamic TVLV part. This part is optional for the ELP packets and currently not parsed by the Linux implementation. Still out-of-tree versions are using it to transport things like neighbor hashes to optimize the rebroadcast behavior. Since the ELP broadcast packets are smaller than the minimal ethernet packet, it often has to be padded. This is often done (as specified in RFC894) with octets of zero and thus work perfectly fine with the TVLV part (making it a zero length and thus empty). But not all ethernet compatible hardware seems to follow this advice. To avoid ambiguous situations when parsing the TVLV header, just force the 4 bytes (TVLV length + padding) after the required ELP header to zero.

* batman-adv: Avoid probe ELP information leakSven Eckelmann2018-09-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The probe ELPs for WiFi interfaces are expanded to contain at least BATADV_ELP_MIN_PROBE_SIZE bytes. This is usually a lot more than the number of bytes which the template ELP packet requires. These extra padding bytes were not initialized and thus could contain data which were previously stored at the same location. It is therefore required to set it to some predefined or random values to avoid leaking private information from the system transmitting these kind of packets.

* batman-adv: disable ethtool link speed detection when auto negotiation offMarek Lindner2018-05-141-1/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Virtual interface drivers such as tun / tap interfaces, VLAN, etc tend to initialize the interface throughput with some value for the sake of having a throughput number to export via ethtool. This exported throughput leaves batman-adv to conclude the interface throughput is genuine (reflecting reality), thus no measurements are necessary. Based on the observation that those interface types also tend to set the link auto-negotiation to 'off', batman-adv shall check this setting to differentiate between genuine link throughput information and placeholders installed by virtual interfaces. The "default throughput" setting exported via sysfs still allows to configure the batman-adv throughput for the interface, thus disabling the measurements.

* batman-adv: ELP - adding basic infrastructureLinus Luessing2016-02-291-0/+193
The B.A.T.M.A.N. protocol originally only used a single message type (called OGM) to determine the link qualities to the direct neighbors and spreading these link quality information through the whole mesh. This procedure is summarized on the BATMAN concept page and explained in details in the RFC draft published in 2008. This approach was chosen for its simplicity during the protocol design phase and the implementation. However, it also bears some drawbacks: * Wireless interfaces usually come with some packet loss, therefore a higher broadcast rate is desirable to allow a fast reaction on flaky connections. Other interfaces of the same host might be connected to Ethernet LANs / VPNs / etc which rarely exhibit packet loss would benefit from a lower broadcast rate to reduce overhead. * It generally is more desirable to detect local link quality changes at a faster rate than propagating all these changes through the entire mesh (the far end of the mesh does not need to care about local link quality changes that much). Other optimizations strategies, like reducing overhead, might be possible if OGMs weren't used for all tasks in the mesh at the same time. As a result detecting local link qualities shall be handled by an independent message type, ELP, whereas the OGM message type remains responsible for flooding the mesh with these link quality information and determining the overall path transmit qualities.
