[B.A.T.M.A.N.] batman-adv and/or batmand porting effort to FreeBSD
by Mahdi Mokhtari 28 Dec '19

28 Dec '19

Hi, After some time of playing with the B.A.T.M.A.N protocol and net-interface on OpenWRT and Debian I was thinking to use it with the servers I use everyday (and maybe on routers/appliances I have nanoBSD on). So I started an effort... (As a background) I already ported some applications to FreeBSD [and I'm maintaining them] and also I did work already on the Linux emulation layer of FreeBSD (FreeBSD has a Linux syscall-emulation and Linux-KPI layers). So my approach (as naturally I didn't expect the build of batman-adv.ko to be successful as is), was based on the approach that we [at FreeBSD] did to port Linux's drm... <https://github.com/FreeBSDDesktop/kms-drm> I ended up in adding some header-files to FreeBSD Linux-KPI (like average.h, percpu.h, ...). Now I'm at a state that Netlink blocks me and I'm to determine next step :-) [Which I don't assume it being trivial with my current approach] So I'd like to ask: 1- Is it better approach to "rewrite" batman-adv.ko [at least Netlink-ish (let's call "Linuxism") parts] than what I'm doing now? 2- Any other efforts are being done out there? 3- is batmand deprecated [So I should mainly focus on batman-adv.ko]? 4- any other comments do you have? :D P.S. sorry if I'm not really good at starting conversation from scratch and out-of-nowhere :D but I hope by continuing the collaboration we can have better (more enriched) FreeBSD and better (as in more portable) B.A.T.M.A.N :-) -- Best regards, MMokhi.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batman-adv: handle race condition for claims also in batadv_bla_rx
by Simon Wunderlich 02 Jul '19

02 Jul '19

From: Andreas Pape <apape(a)phoenixcontact.com> Like in the case of the patch for batadv_bla_tx to handle a race condition when claiming a mac address for bla, a similar situation can occur when claiming is triggered via batadv_bla_rx. This patch solves this with a similar approach as for batadv_bla_tx.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [RFC maint v2] batman-adv: fix adding VLANs with partial state
by Marek Lindner 09 Jun '19

09 Jun '19

Whenever a new VLAN is created on top of batman virtual interfaces the batman-adv kernel module creates internal structures to track the status of said VLAN. Amongst other things, the MAC address of the VLAN interface itself has to be stored. Without this change a VLAN and its infrastructure could be created while the interface MAC address is not stored without triggering any error, thus creating issues in other parts of the code. Prevent the VLAN from being created if the MAC address can not be stored.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [RFC PATCH] batman-adv: Increase DHCP snooped DAT entry purge timeout in DHT
by Linus Lüssing 05 Jan '19

05 Jan '19

This patch increases the DAT entry purge timeout in the DHT for DHT_PUT messages which were triggered by DHCP snooping from 5 to 60 minutes. DHCP snooping will ensure a timely update in case of a reassignment of an IP address to a new host in the DHT. This allows us to increase the DAT entry timeout for entries inserted via an incoming DHT_PUT message triggered by DHCP snooping without risking inconsistencies. To signalize to a remote node that a DHT_PUT message was triggered by DHCP snooping and that it is suitable for such an extended purge timeout an according flag in the unicast 4addr header was introduced.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 0/7] B.A.T.M.A.N. V - fallback to tp meter estimation if throughput otherwise not available
by Marek Lindner 29 Aug '18

29 Aug '18

Under normal circumstances B.A.T.M.A.N. V retrieves the neighbor throughput values to populate its metric tables from the various drivers such as WiFi throughput tables and Ethernet throughput.. Whenever the interface drivers do not export link throughput information manual overrides become necessary. To further automate and thus better support these setups, ELP may call the batman-adv throughput meter to schedule a throughput estimation to be used to populate the metric table. v2: * added sysfs attribute to configure tp meter test duration * fixed null pointer dereference in TP meter packet sending routine * fixed storing the measured throughput in the correct variable * checkpatch/kerneldoc/sparse/smatch cleanup Antonio Quartulli (3): batman-adv: tp_meter - prevent concurrent tp_meter sessions by using workqueue batman-adv: tp_meter - don't check for existing session batman-adv: tp_meter - add option to perform one-hop test Marek Lindner (4): batman-adv: tp_meter - allow up to 10 queued sessions batman-adv: tp_meter - add caller distinction batman-adv: ELP - use tp meter to estimate the throughput if otherwise not available batman-adv: ELP - add throughput meter test duration attribute .../ABI/testing/sysfs-class-net-batman-adv | 7 + include/uapi/linux/batadv_packet.h | 2 + net/batman-adv/bat_v.c | 1 + net/batman-adv/bat_v_elp.c | 66 ++- net/batman-adv/bat_v_elp.h | 21 + net/batman-adv/main.c | 10 +- net/batman-adv/main.h | 7 +- net/batman-adv/netlink.c | 3 +- net/batman-adv/routing.c | 6 +- net/batman-adv/sysfs.c | 3 + net/batman-adv/tp_meter.c | 463 +++++++++++------- net/batman-adv/tp_meter.h | 11 +- net/batman-adv/types.h | 36 ++ 13 files changed, 438 insertions(+), 198 deletions(-) -- 2.17.0

Hi, yes, this is a rather harsh reminder that you should keep your settings in Kconfig and the out-of-tree module Makefiles in sync. Please submit an alternate patch (with a good commit message) for net/batman-adv/Kconfig when you want to keep the feature enabled by default.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] where is batman-adv on multicast? specifically IPTV
by dan 28 May '18

28 May '18

you may have seen my other posts about wISP service for batman-adv. I'm looking at how batman-adv can handle multicast the design is batman-adv running over PtP wireless links and then PtMP access radios bridged in. I'm looking at the multicast-optimizations page but I'm unclear on something. I see that if there is just one listener, then it basically becomes a unicast stream. But what if I have multiple sites (lets say 10) and at 2 sites there are 1 listener each. does this mean that all 10 sites will get the broadcast? or that just the 2 sites that have listeners will get the broadcast? I'm not sure how old that page is or if anything has evolved. The goal here would be to only send a stream to a site if there were at least 1 listener. I could also potentially have a device at each site handling PIM for multicast, but I haven't dived into how that would work on batman-adv or if I'd have to run a separaet VLAN between each PIM router outside of batman-adv.
