Hi folks,
here the updated patchset conceived by Sven Eckelmann for netlink interface creation. Since the first version the following has happened: * the code has been rebased on top of master * batadv_add_slave() / batadv_del_slave() / batadv_interface_free() were renamed to follow general naming conventions * introduced batadv_softif_destroy_netlink() dedicated to netlink deletion * adding clear name separation between batadv_softif_init_early() / batadv_softif_init_late()
Apparently, busybox "ip link" does not support creating interfaces through netlink which is why I was unable to actually test the code in my OpenWrt environments. If any if you know a way of making this work on OpenWrt or are brave enough to run the code natively I'd be interested in getting feedback on whether or not this works. I am certain the code was bug free and ran perfectly fine before I touched it. :)
Cheers, Marek

The initialization of an net_device object should be done in the init/constructor function and not from the outside after the register_netdevice was done to avoid race conditions.

From: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org
batman-adv has an unusual way to manage softinterfaces. These will be created automatically when a user writes to the batman-adv/mesh_iface file in sysfs and removed when no slave device exists anymore.
This behaviour cannot be changed without breaking compatibility with existing code. Instead other interfaces should be able to slightly reduce this behaviour and provide a more common reaction to a removal of a slave interface.

Master setting is missing. This is necessary on current kernels to use "nomaster" of ip. Also reference counting is br0ken. An example patch is added (just to explain things... it will not apply directly).
Kind regards, Sven

Sven: I think this is enough to account the correct "master" setting? In net-next it is now called upper_device and they also changed some api. Therefore a compat solution is also provided.

Did you actually test the stuff you are proposing ?? batctl if del <iface> results in a kernel crash ...

Well, since I do run batman-adv against net-next, I could not test the compat stuff and I left this exercise to you :-) The problem seems to be there....I'll try to dig and see if I can how to fix it.

Apparently, busybox "ip link" does not support creating interfaces through netlink which is why I was unable to actually test the code in my OpenWrt environments. If any if you know a way of making this work on OpenWrt or are brave enough to run the code natively I'd be interested in getting feedback on whether or not this works.

Kind regards, Sven

Thanks! That works for me.
