These are three fixes for issues which occur when using the batman-adv multicast-to-unicast feature.
They fix issues when using the multicast-to-unicast conversion while BLA is enabled and some nodes are sharing the same LAN side. Here it either causes "just" duplicates in the "good" scenario (Patch 3/3). But can also cause multiple BLA backbones to send a frame from the mesh into the same, shared LAN segment (Patch 2/3). Or in the worst case, even reflect packets back to the host in the shared LAN, which completely confuses switches/bridges and ICMPv6 Neighbor Discovery (Patch 1/3).
Regards, Linus

Changelog v3: * removed 1/4, as it was already applied * renamed title (excluded TT, as already applied)
* Patch 1/3: - moved bla-backbone check into multicast code: -> to stay on the safe side for net, to touch less other code paths - the issue was observed specifically for multicast and the fix was tested for that - added a note regarding implications for mcast-fanout * Patch 2/3: - previous approach was broken, it would break the DHCPv6 gateway code; instead distinguish by batadv 3 vs. 4 addr unicast header - added some more code comments - updated commit message with new approach * Patch 3/3: - made code a bit more verbose and explicit - added some more code comments - added missing kernel doc for "orig" parameter to new batadv_bla_check_duplist()
Changelog v2: * Adding "Fixes:" lines
Scenario: * Multicast frame send from a BLA backbone (multiple nodes with their bat0 bridged together, with BLA enabled)
Issue: * BLA backbone nodes receive the frame multiple times on bat0
For multicast frames received via batman-adv broadcast packets the originator of the broadcast packet is checked before decapsulating and forwarding the frame to bat0 (batadv_bla_is_backbone_gw()-> batadv_recv_bcast_packet()). If it came from a node which shares the same BLA backbone with us then it is not forwarded to bat0 to avoid a loop.
When sending a multicast frame in a non-4-address batman-adv unicast packet we are currently missing this check - and cannot do so because the batman-adv unicast packet has no originator address field.
However, we can simply fix this on the sender side by only sending the multicast frame via unicasts to interested nodes which do not share the same BLA backbone with us. This also nicely avoids some unnecessary transmissions on mesh side.
Note that no infinite loop was observed, probably because of dropping via batadv_interface_tx()->batadv_bla_tx(). However the duplicates still utterly confuse switches/bridges, ICMPv6 duplicate address detection and neighbor discovery and therefore leads to long delays before being able to establish TCP connections, for instance. And it also leads to the Linux bridge printing messages like: "br-lan: received packet on eth1 with own address as source address ..."

Scenario: * Multicast frame send from mesh to a BLA backbone (multiple nodes with their bat0 bridged together, with BLA enabled)
Issue: * BLA backbone nodes receive the frame multiple times on bat0, once from mesh->bat0 and once from each backbone_gw from LAN
For unicast, a node will send only to the best backbone gateway according to the TQ. However for multicast we currently cannot determine if multiple destination nodes share the same backbone if they don't share the same backbone with us. So we need to keep sending the unicasts to all backbone gateways and let the backbone gateways decide which one will forward the frame. We can use the CLAIM mechanism to make this decision.
One catch: The batman-adv gateway feature for DHCP packets potentially sends multicast packets in the same batman-adv unicast header as the multicast optimizations code. And we are not allowed to drop those even if we did not claim the source address of the sender, as for such packets there is only this one multicast-in-unicast packet.
How can we distinguish the two cases?
The gateway feature uses a batman-adv unicast 4 address header. While the multicast-to-unicasts feature uses a simple, 3 address batman-adv unicast header. So let's use this to distinguish.

Issue: * Nodes receive the frame multiple times on bat0 from the mesh, once from each foreign BLA backbone gateway which shares the same LAN with another
For multicast frames via batman-adv broadcast packets coming from the same BLA backbone but from different backbone gateways duplicates are currently detected via a CRC history of previously received packets.
However this CRC so far was not performed for multicast frames received via batman-adv unicast packets. Fixing this by appyling the same check for such packets, too.
Room for improvements in the future: Ideally we would introduce the possibility to not only claim a client, but a complete originator, too. This would allow us to only send a multicast-in-unicast packet from a BLA backbone gateway claiming the node and by that avoid potential redundant transmissions in the first place.
