2018-02-26batman-adv: Update copyright years for 2018Gravatar Sven Eckelmann 1-1/+1

2017-12-21batman-adv: Convert packet.h to uapi headerGravatar Sven Eckelmann 1-1/+1
The header file is used by different userspace programs to inject packets or to decode sniffed packets. It should therefore be available to them as userspace header. Also other components in the kernel (like the flow dissector) require access to the packet definitions to be able to decode ETH_P_BATMAN ethernet packets.

2017-12-15batman-adv: Use parentheses in function kernel-docGravatar Sven Eckelmann 1-19/+19
The documentation describing kernel-doc comments for functions ("How to format kernel-doc comments") uses parentheses at the end of the function name. Using this format allows to use a consistent style when adding documentation to a function and when referencing this function in a different kernel-doc section.

2017-12-15batman-adv: include gfp.h for GFP_* definesGravatar Sven Eckelmann 1-1/+1
The linux/gfp.h provides the GFP_ATOMIC and GFP_KERNEL define. It should therefore be included instead of linux/fs.h. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de>
2017-12-15batman-adv: Add SPDX license identifier above copyright headerGravatar Sven Eckelmann 1-0/+1
The "Linux kernel licensing rules" require that each file has a SPDX license identifier as first line (and sometimes as second line). The FSFE REUSE practices [1] would also require the same tags but have no restrictions on the placement in the source file. Using the "Linux kernel licensing rules" is therefore also fulfilling the FSFE REUSE practices requirements at the same time.

2016-10-30batman-adv: Consume skb in batadv_send_skb_to_origGravatar Sven Eckelmann 1-4/+1
Sending functions in Linux consume the supplied skbuff. Doing the same in batadv_send_skb_to_orig avoids the hack of returning -1 (-EPERM) to signal the caller that he is responsible for cleaning up the skb.

2016-08-09batman-adv: Place kref_get for tvlv_handler near useGravatar Sven Eckelmann 1-0/+4
It is hard to understand why the refcnt is increased when it isn't done near the actual place the new reference is used. So using kref_get right before the place which requires the reference and in the same function helps to avoid accidental problems caused by incorrect reference counting.

2016-07-04batman-adv: return netdev status in the TX pathGravatar Antonio Quartulli 1-1/+3
Return the proper netdev TX status along the TX path so that the tp_meter can understand when the queue is full and should stop sending packets.

2016-06-30batman-adv: split tvlv into a separate fileGravatar Markus Pargmann 1-0/+630
The tvlv functionality in main.c is mostly unrelated to the rest of the content. It still takes up a large portion of this source file (~45%, 588 lines). Moving it to a separate file makes it better visible as a main component of the batman-adv implementation and hides it less in the other helper functions in main.c Signed-off-by: Markus Pargmann <mpa@pengutronix.de> [sven@narfation.org: fix conflicts with current version, fix includes, rewrote commit message] Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <mareklindner@neomailbox.ch> Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de>
