2017-06-16networking: introduce and use skb_put_data()Johannes Berg
A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy() some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for this. An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many of the places using it: @@ identifier p, p2; expression len, skb, data; type t, t2; @@ ( -p = skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); | -p = (t)skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, len); | -memcpy(p, data, len); ) @@ type t, t2; identifier p, p2; expression skb, data; @@ t *p; ... ( -p = skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); | -p = (t *)skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, sizeof(*p)); | -memcpy(p, data, sizeof(*p)); ) @@ expression skb, len, data; @@ -memcpy(skb_put(skb, len), data, len); +skb_put_data(skb, data, len); (again, manually post-processed to retain some comments) Reviewed-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-03-04batman-adv: Keep fragments equally sizedSven Eckelmann
The batman-adv fragmentation packets have the design problem that they cannot be refragmented and cannot handle padding by the underlying link. The latter often leads to problems when networks are incorrectly configured and don't use a common MTU. The sender could for example fragment a 1271 byte frame (plus external ethernet header (14) and batadv unicast header (10)) to fit in a 1280 bytes large MTU of the underlying link (max. 1294 byte frames). This would create a 1294 bytes large frame (fragment 2) and a 55 bytes large frame (fragment 1). The extra 54 bytes are the fragment header (20) added to each fragment and the external ethernet header (14) for the second fragment. Let us assume that the next hop is then not able to transport 1294 bytes to its next hop. The 1294 byte large frame will be dropped but the 55 bytes large fragment will still be forwarded to its destination. Or let us assume that the underlying hardware requires that each frame has a minimum size (e.g. 60 bytes). Then it will pad the 55 bytes frame to 60 bytes. The receiver of the 60 bytes frame will no longer be able to correctly assemble the two frames together because it is not aware that 5 bytes of the 60 bytes frame are padding and don't belong to the reassembled frame. This can partly be avoided by splitting frames more equally. In this example, the 675 and 674 bytes large fragment frames could both potentially reach its destination without being too large or too small.

2017-02-21batman-adv: Fix double free during fragment merge errorSven Eckelmann
The function batadv_frag_skb_buffer was supposed not to consume the skbuff on errors. This was followed in the helper function batadv_frag_insert_packet when the skb would potentially be inserted in the fragment queue. But it could happen that the next helper function batadv_frag_merge_packets would try to merge the fragments and fail. This results in a kfree_skb of all the enqueued fragments (including the just inserted one). batadv_recv_frag_packet would detect the error in batadv_frag_skb_buffer and try to free the skb again. The behavior of batadv_frag_skb_buffer (and its helper batadv_frag_insert_packet) must therefore be changed to always consume the skbuff to have a common behavior and avoid the double kfree_skb.

2016-02-29batman-adv: keep track of when unicast packets are sentAntonio Quartulli
To enable ELP to send probing packets over wireless links only if needed, batman-adv must keep track of the last time it sent a unicast packet towards every neighbour. For this purpose a 2 main changes are introduced: 1) a new member of the elp_neigh_node structure stores the last time a unicast packet was sent towards this neighbour; 2) a wrapper function for sending unicast packets is implemented. This function will simply update the member describe din point 1) and then forward the packet to the real sending routine. Point 2) implies that any code-path leading to a unicast sending now has to use the new wrapper.

2015-06-07batman-adv: Add required includes to all filesSven Eckelmann
The header files could not be build indepdent from each other. This is happened because headers didn't include the files for things they've used. This was problematic because the success of a build depended on the knowledge about the right order of local includes. Also source files were not including everything they've used explicitly. Instead they required that transitive includes are always stable. This is problematic because some transitive includes are not obvious, depend on config settings and may not be stable in the future. The order for include blocks are: * primary headers (main.h and the *.h file of a *.c file) * global linux headers * required local headers * extra forward declarations for pointers in function/struct declarations The only exceptions are linux/bitops.h and linux/if_ether.h in packet.h. This header file is shared with userspace applications like batctl and must therefore build together with userspace applications. The header linux/bitops.h is not part of the uapi headers and linux/if_ether.h conflicts with the musl implementation of netinet/if_ether.h. The maintainers rejected the use of __KERNEL__ preprocessor checks and thus these two headers are only in main.h. All files using packet.h first have to include main.h to work correctly.

This total_size is announced by each fragment. The new implementation doesn't check if the the total_size information of the packets inside one chain is consistent.

The fragmentation code was replaced in 610bfc6bc99bc83680d190ebc69359a05fc7f605 ("batman-adv: Receive fragmented packets and merge") by an implementation which can handle up to 16 fragments of a packet. The packet is prepared for the split in fragments by the function batadv_frag_send_packet and the actual split is done by batadv_frag_create. Both functions calculate the size of a fragment themself. But their calculation differs because batadv_frag_send_packet also subtracts ETH_HLEN. Therefore, the check in batadv_frag_send_packet "can a full fragment can be created?" may return true even when batadv_frag_create cannot create a full fragment. The function batadv_frag_create doesn't check the size of the skb before splitting it and therefore might try to create a larger fragment than the remaining buffer. This creates an integer underflow and an invalid len is given to skb_split. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-12-23batman-adv: Calculate extra tail size based on queued fragmentsSven Eckelmann
The fragmentation code was replaced in 610bfc6bc99bc83680d190ebc69359a05fc7f605 ("batman-adv: Receive fragmented packets and merge"). The new code provided a mostly unused parameter skb for the merging function. It is used inside the function to calculate the additionally needed skb tailroom. But instead of increasing its own tailroom, it is only increasing the tailroom of the first queued skb. This is not correct in some situations because the first queued entry can be a different one than the parameter. An observed problem was: 1. packet with size 104, total_size 1464, fragno 1 was received - packet is queued 2. packet with size 1400, total_size 1464, fragno 0 was received - packet is queued at the end of the list 3. enough data was received and can be given to the merge function (1464 == (1400 - 20) + (104 - 20)) - merge functions gets 1400 byte large packet as skb argument 4. merge function gets first entry in queue (104 byte) - stored as skb_out 5. merge function calculates the required extra tail as total_size - skb->len - pskb_expand_head tail of skb_out with 64 bytes 6. merge function tries to squeeze the extra 1380 bytes from the second queued skb (1400 byte aka skb parameter) in the 64 extra tail bytes of skb_out Instead calculate the extra required tail bytes for skb_out also using skb_out instead of using the parameter skb. The skb parameter is only used to get the total_size from the last received packet. This is also the total_size used to decide that all fragments were received.

2014-08-05batman-adv: Fix out-of-order fragmentation supportSven Eckelmann
batadv_frag_insert_packet was unable to handle out-of-order packets because it dropped them directly. This is caused by the way the fragmentation lists is checked for the correct place to insert a fragmentation entry. The fragmentation code keeps the fragments in lists. The fragmentation entries are kept in descending order of sequence number. The list is traversed and each entry is compared with the new fragment. If the current entry has a smaller sequence number than the new fragment then the new one has to be inserted before the current entry. This ensures that the list is still in descending order. An out-of-order packet with a smaller sequence number than all entries in the list still has to be added to the end of the list. The used hlist has no information about the last entry in the list inside hlist_head and thus the last entry has to be calculated differently. Currently the code assumes that the iterator variable of hlist_for_each_entry can be used for this purpose after the hlist_for_each_entry finished. This is obviously wrong because the iterator variable is always NULL when the list was completely traversed. Instead the information about the last entry has to be stored in a different variable.
