[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [RFC] ELP
by Marek Lindner 06 Apr '12

06 Apr '12

Hi, after numerous infrastructure changes in the past weeks ELP[1] slowly approaches the state in which it can be tested and later merged into the master branch. Since its initial implementation by Linus Luessing last summer a lot has happened: * the internal protocol name (NDP) was renamed to ELP * the old code was rebased on top of the master branch * the ELP code was adjusted to the many changes in our code base * several patches were squashed together * brought the code in sync with the spec * numerous bugs were fixed (buffer overflow, writing into random memory sections, memory corruptions, locking issues, elp packet length checks, printing the neighbors of the requested mesh only and many more) The ELP code is the first to use the recently introduced routing protocol abstraction. It is not compiled into batman-adv by default, therefore you need to compile with CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_BATMAN_V=y or modify the makefile. Once the batman-adv kernel module has been loaded you can check for the existence of the new routing protocol: cat /sys/kernel/debug/batman_adv/routing_algos Available routing algorithms: BATMAN IV BATMAN V To activate B.A.T.M.A.N. V (ELP) you should run the following command *before* adding any interface via batctl: echo -n "BATMAN V" > /sys/module/batman_adv/parameters/routing_algo Caveats: * ELP alone (without OGMv2) isn't very useful because ELP handles single hop neighbors only. So don't expect to convert your entire mesh network to B.A.T.M.A.N. V just yet. * The batman-adv routing protocol abstraction still lacks the translation table integration which is why the following patches will lead to a kernel crash. The ELP repository[2] contains a patch to disable the TT propagation partially to mitigate the problem until a proper solution has been implemented. Any comments and suggestions are appreciated.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] pull request: batman-adv 2012-04-05
by Antonio Quartulli 05 Apr '12

05 Apr '12

Hello, This is my first pull-request, so I hope I've done everything in the right way, but please, fell free to blame me so that I can learn more :-) I would like to propose the following changes for net-next/3.5. The first patch just adds a new maintainer for batman-adv; patches from 2 to 5 are cleanups and little fixes to make batman-adv re-use kernel defines/structures (ETH_ALEN and bitmap); patch 6 increases the default value of the "hop_penalty" parameter in order to encourage batman-adv to choose shorter routes; patches from 7 to 16 consist in the renewal of the bridge loop avoidance mechanism (aka BLA2). BLA2 faces the same problem that STP tries to solve in classical switched networks, but in a layer 2 mesh. In this case the problem shows up when the user connects two nodes belonging to the same mesh by means of an ethernet bridge. It is possible to find much more details about BLA2 in our wiki [1,2,3]. As you can see its compile option is set to 'y' by default, but simply because this mechanism (actually its old version) was already part of the batman-adv core, but we decided to possibly let the users choose to remove it whether the network permits it and so reduce the binary size.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 0/5] batman-adv: tt code fixes and temporary client detection
by Antonio Quartulli 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

This set of patches aims to first clean & fix the code a little bit in order to prepare it for the temporary client recognition (patch 5/5). Temporary client recognition: In the current implementation, whenever a client joins the network it has to wait the next OGM in order to be announced to the whole network (by means of the known TT mechanism). Before that time, the client will be unable to communicate to whichever else client, so generating some delay that usually leads to DHCP (or any other service) timeout. This problem is amplified is for large originator interval. Patch 5/5 add a temporary recognition mechanism which make every node in the network "autodetect" the location (namely the node serving) the node yet announced client Known issues: right now, multiple temporary announcement of the same client is not supported; roaming of temporary client is not supported. Support for this two features will be added soon.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batman-adv: Initialize lockdep class keys for hashes
by Sven Eckelmann 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

The hash for claim and backbone hash in the bridge loop avoidance code receive the same key because they are getting initialized by hash_new with the same key. Lockdep will create a backtrace when they are used recursively. This can be avoided by reinitializing the key directly after the hash_new.
