* batman-adv: Fix hang up with small MTU hard-interfaceShigeru Yoshida2022-08-201-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The system hangs up when batman-adv soft-interface is created on hard-interface with small MTU. For example, the following commands create batman-adv soft-interface on dummy interface with zero MTU: # ip link add name dummy0 type dummy # ip link set mtu 0 dev dummy0 # ip link set up dev dummy0 # ip link add name bat0 type batadv # ip link set dev dummy0 master bat0 These commands cause the system hang up with the following messages: [ 90.578925][ T6689] batman_adv: bat0: Adding interface: dummy0 [ 90.580884][ T6689] batman_adv: bat0: The MTU of interface dummy0 is too small (0) to handle the transport of batman-adv packets. Packets going over this interface will be fragmented on layer2 which could impact the performance. Setting the MTU to 1560 would solve the problem.

* net: wrap the wireless pointers in struct net_device in an ifdefJakub Kicinski2022-05-221-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most protocol-specific pointers in struct net_device are under a respective ifdef. Wireless is the notable exception. Since there's a sizable number of custom-built kernels for datacenter workloads which don't build wireless it seems reasonable to ifdefy those pointers as well. While at it move IPv4 and IPv6 pointers up, those are special for obvious reasons.

| * batman-adv: Don't expect inter-netns unique iflink indicesSven Eckelmann2022-03-021-5/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ifindex doesn't have to be unique for multiple network namespaces on the same machine. $ ip netns add test1 $ ip -net test1 link add dummy1 type dummy $ ip netns add test2 $ ip -net test2 link add dummy2 type dummy $ ip -net test1 link show dev dummy1 6: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 96:81:55:1e:dd:85 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff $ ip -net test2 link show dev dummy2 6: dummy2: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 5a:3c:af:35:07:c3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff But the batman-adv code to walk through the various layers of virtual interfaces uses this assumption because dev_get_iflink handles it internally and doesn't return the actual netns of the iflink. And dev_get_iflink only documents the situation where ifindex == iflink for physical devices. But only checking for dev->netdev_ops->ndo_get_iflink is also not an option because ipoib_get_iflink implements it even when it sometimes returns an iflink != ifindex and sometimes iflink == ifindex. The caller must therefore make sure itself to check both netns and iflink + ifindex for equality. Only when they are equal, a "physical" interface was detected which should stop the traversal. On the other hand, vxcan_get_iflink can also return 0 in case there was currently no valid peer. In this case, it is still necessary to stop.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sysfs code for the batman-adv/mesh_iface file was receiving a string of the batadv interface. This interface name was then provided to the code which shared sysfs+rtnetlink code for attaching an hard-interface to an batadv interface. The rtnetlink code was also using the (extracted) interface name from the ndo_add_slave callback to increase the shared code - even when it would have been more efficient to use the provided net_device object directly instead of searching it again (based on its name) in batadv_hardif_enable_interface. But this indirect handling is no longer necessary because the sysfs code was dropped. There is now only a single code path which is using batadv_hardif_enable_interface.

This avoided having outdated (in sense of year information - not copyright holder) publishing information inside several files.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each slave interface of an B.A.T.M.A.N. IV virtual interface has an OGM packet buffer which is initialized using data from netdevice notifier and other rtnetlink related hooks. It is sent regularly via various slave interfaces of the batadv virtual interface and in this process also modified (realloced) to integrate additional state information via TVLV containers. It must be avoided that the worker item is executed without a common lock with the netdevice notifier/rtnetlink helpers. Otherwise it can either happen that half modified/freed data is sent out or functions modifying the OGM buffer try to access already freed memory regions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The state of slave interfaces are handled differently depending on whether the interface is up or not. All active interfaces (IFF_UP) will transmit OGMs. But for B.A.T.M.A.N. IV, also non-active interfaces are scheduling (low TTL) OGMs on active interfaces. The code which setups and schedules the OGMs must therefore already be called when the interfaces gets added as slave interface and the transmit function must then check whether it has to send out the OGM or not on the specific slave interface. But the commit f0d97253fb5f ("batman-adv: remove ogm_emit and ogm_schedule API calls") moved the setup code from the enable function to the activate function. The latter is called either when the added slave was already up when batadv_hardif_enable_interface processed the new interface or when a NETDEV_UP event was received for this slave interfac. As result, each NETDEV_UP would schedule a new OGM worker for the interface and thus OGMs would be send a lot more than expected.

The userspace could than either receive some entries multiple times or miss entries. Commit 670dc2833d14 ("netlink: advertise incomplete dumps") introduced a mechanism to inform userspace about this problem. Userspace can then decide whether it is necessary or not to retry dumping the information again. The netlink dump functions have to be switched to exclusive locks to avoid changes while the current message is prepared. And an external generation sequence counter is introduced which tracks all modifications of the list.

This resizable array had an entry for each interface and had to be resizes (for all OGMs) when the number of active interface was modified. This could cause problems when a large number of interface is added and not enough continuous memory is available to allocate the array. There is already a per interface originator structure "batadv_orig_ifinfo" which can be used to store this information.

* batman-adv: Fix debugfs path for renamed softifSven Eckelmann2018-06-231-6/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | batman-adv is creating special debugfs directories in the init net_namespace for each created soft-interface (batadv net_device). But it is possible to rename a net_device to a completely different name then the original one. It can therefore happen that a user registers a new batadv net_device with the name "bat0". batman-adv is then also adding a new directory under $debugfs/batman-adv/ with the name "wlan0". The user then decides to rename this device to "bat1" and registers a different batadv device with the name "bat0". batman-adv will then try to create a directory with the name "bat0" under $debugfs/batman-adv/ again. But there already exists one with this name under this path and thus this fails. batman-adv will detect a problem and rollback the registering of this device. batman-adv must therefore take care of renaming the debugfs directories for soft-interfaces whenever it detects such a net_device rename.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | batman-adv is creating special debugfs directories in the init net_namespace for each valid hard-interface (net_device). But it is possible to rename a net_device to a completely different name then the original one. It can therefore happen that a user registers a new net_device which gets the name "wlan0" assigned by default. batman-adv is also adding a new directory under $debugfs/batman-adv/ with the name "wlan0". The user then decides to rename this device to "wl_pri" and registers a different device. The kernel may now decide to use the name "wlan0" again for this new device. batman-adv will detect it as a valid net_device and tries to create a directory with the name "wlan0" under $debugfs/batman-adv/. But there already exists one with this name under this path and thus this fails. batman-adv will detect a problem and rollback the registering of this device. batman-adv must therefore take care of renaming the debugfs directories for hard-interfaces whenever it detects such a net_device rename.

| * batman-adv: Fix internal interface indices typesSven Eckelmann2018-02-251-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | batman-adv uses internal indices for each enabled and active interface. It is currently used by the B.A.T.M.A.N. IV algorithm to identifify the correct position in the ogm_cnt bitmaps. The type for the number of enabled interfaces (which defines the next interface index) was set to char. This type can be (depending on the architecture) either signed (limiting batman-adv to 127 active slave interfaces) or unsigned (limiting batman-adv to 255 active slave interfaces). This limit was not correctly checked when an interface was enabled and thus an overflow happened. This was only catched on systems with the signed char type when the B.A.T.M.A.N. IV code tried to resize its counter arrays with a negative size. The if_num interface index was only a s16 and therefore significantly smaller than the ifindex (int) used by the code net code. Both &batadv_hard_iface->if_num and &batadv_priv->num_ifaces must be (unsigned) int to support the same number of slave interfaces as the net core code. And the interface activation code must check the number of active slave interfaces to avoid integer overflows.
