[B.A.T.M.A.N.] BATMAN-ADV emulated in DCE module of ns-3
by seb gmail 20 May '14

20 May '14

Hello, I have developed a module to emulate BATMAN-ADV and Batctl with the framework of ns-3 called DCE. With DCE, you can emulate a Linux TCP/IP stack and run existing implementation of userpsace and kernelspace network protocols or applications. We continue our effort to push this module to be available for the next version of DCE. Best regards, Sébastien Bindel

I am not aware of any specific group working on security in batman-adv at the moment. Personally I always try to find a solution to this problem on a different layer other than batman-adv (e.g. by using IBSS-RSN on the wifi layer). However it depends on what your specific goal is. I think that "security on batman-adv" is quite a broad topic that you may need to clarify. Cheers, -- Antonio Quartulli

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batctl: Avoid overoptimization of signal related check
by Sven Eckelmann 19 May '14

19 May '14

According to C99, it is not safe to use a simple char for checks because the compiler may optimizes it away when it only gets modified in a signal handler. It is also undefined when the signal is modifying an object with static storage duration not from type volatile sig_atomic_t.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] AR9331 Ad-hoc connection speed on OpenWRT Barrier Breaker
by Dirk van der Walt 19 May '14

19 May '14

Hi list, I'm sorry for posting a non-Batman-adv matter but I figured this place is the most likely to also have someone with the same equipment and the same goal. I have a few Dragino MS14's (same as the Village Telco MP2s) [Atheros AR9331] running the latest build of Barrier Breaker. Somehow the ad-hoc connection speed refuse to go above 1Mb/s. This have a ripple effect on the throughput of the batman-adv mesh. The same firmware build works fine with OM2Ps so I suspect it is probably chipset related. The same equipment works just fine with AA but I really would like to run the latest versions of the software. Anyone who experienced the same problem and (hopefully) have a fix to this issue? Kind regards

Hello David, here you have our pull request for net-next. Unfortunately this time we have nothing exciting for you (as you may have seen we preferred to focus on bug fixing during the last period). Patch 1 and 2 slightly improve our codestyle in order to respect two new checks that have been recently introduced in checkpatch. Patch 3 is just increasing our internal version number. Please pull or let me know of any problem. Thanks a lot!

Hello David, our debugging campaign continues.. Here I have another small set of fixes intended for net/linux-3.15 and *stable* (please enqueue them). I know we already sent some fixes and we are running late in the rc cycle, but, as you can see from the stats below, the changes are very very small. Patch 1 prevents a NULL dereference in batadv_orig_hardif_seq_print_text() along the failure path. Patch 2 fixes a reference counting imbalance that gets triggered everytime the batman packet fragmentation mechanism is used; this imbalance prevents the netdev object held by batman-adv from being released on shutdown. Patch 3 fixes the reference counting for the orig_node objects in order to avoid any access after they have been free'd. Patch 4 fixes the TT local check in DAT (Distributed ARP Table) that is used to avoid sending (self-forged) ARP replies on behalf of other host in the LAN. Please pull or let me know of any problem!
