2016-07-08ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix intra pan id checkAlexander Aring
The RIOT-OS stack does send intra-pan frames but don't set the intra pan flag inside the mac header. It seems this is valid frame addressing but inefficient. Anyway this patch adds a new function for intra pan addressing, doesn't matter if intra pan flag or source and destination are the same. The newly introduction function will be used to check on intra pan addressing for 6lowpan. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <aar@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

This patch reverts commit f9d1ce8f81eb ("ieee802154: fix netns settings"). The lowpan interface need to be created inside the net namespace where the wpan interface is available. The wpan namespace can be changed only by nl802154 before. Without this patch it's not possible to create a lowpan interface for a wpan interface which isn't inside init_net namespace.

2015-10-22ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix memory leakAlexander Aring
Looking at current situation of memory management in 6lowpan receive function I detected some invalid handling. After calling lowpan_invoke_rx_handlers we will do a kfree_skb and then NET_RX_DROP on error handling. We don't do this before, also on skb_share_check/skb_unshare which might manipulate the reference counters. After running some 'grep -r "dev_add_pack" net/' to look how others packet-layer receive callbacks works I detected that every subsystem do a kfree_skb, then NET_RX_DROP without calling skb functions which might manipulate the skb reference counters. This is the reason why we should do the same here like all others subsystems. I didn't find any documentation how the packet-layer receive callbacks handle NET_RX_DROP return values either. This patch will add a kfree_skb, then NET_RX_DROP handling for the "trivial checks", in case of skb_share_check/skb_unshare the kfree_skb call will be done inside these functions.

This patch changes the lowpan_header_decompress function by removing inklayer related information from parameters. This is currently for supporting short and extended address for iphc handling in 802154. We don't support short address handling anyway right now, but there exists already code for handling short addresses in lowpan_header_decompress. The address parameters are also changed to a void pointer, so 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code can put complex structures as these parameters and cast it again inside the generic code by evaluating linklayer type before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and then source address, which is the same like all others functions where destination is always the first, memcpy, dev_hard_header, lowpan_header_compress, etc. This patch also moves the fetching of iphc values from 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code into the generic branch.

2015-10-01ieee802154: handle datagram variables as u16Alexander Aring
This reverts commit 9abc378c66e3d6f437eed77c1c534cbc183523f7 ("ieee802154: 6lowpan: change datagram var types"). The reason is that I forgot the IPv6 fragmentation here. Our MTU of lowpan interface is 1280 and skb->len should not above of that. If we reach a payload above 1280 in IPv6 header then we have a IPv6 fragmentation above 802.15.4 6LoWPAN fragmentation. The type "u16" was fine, instead I added now a WARN_ON_ONCE if skb->len is above MTU which should never happen otherwise IPv6 on minimum MTU size is broken.

Currently we create one 802.15.4 header at first, then check if it's match into one frame and at the end construct many fragments and calling wpan_dev_hard_header for each of them, inclusive for the first fragment.

2015-09-22ieee802154: change needed headroom/tailroomAlexander Aring
This patch cleanups needed_headroom, needed_tailroom and hard_header_len fields for wpan and lowpan interfaces. For wpan interfaces the worst case mac header len should be part of needed_headroom, currently this is set as hard_header_len, but hard_header_len should be set to the minimum header length which xmit call assumes and this is the minimum frame length of 802.15.4. The hard_header_len value will check inside send callbacl of AF_PACKET raw sockets. For lowpan interfaces, if fragmentation isn't needed the skb will call dev_hard_header for 802154 layer and queue it afterwards. This happens without new skb allocation, so we need the same headroom and tailroom lengths like 802154 inside 802154 6lowpan layer. At least we assume as minimum header length an ipv6 header size.

2015-09-22ieee802154: introduce wpan_dev_header_opsAlexander Aring
The current header_ops callback structure of net device are used mostly from 802.15.4 upper-layers. Because this callback structure is a very generic one, which is also used by e.g. DGRAM AF_PACKET sockets, we can't make this callback structure 802.15.4 specific which is currently is. I saw the smallest "constraint" for calling this callback with dev_hard_header/dev_parse_header by AF_PACKET which assign a 8 byte array for address void pointers. Currently 802.15.4 specific protocols like af802154 and 6LoWPAN will assign the "struct ieee802154_addr" as these parameters which is greater than 8 bytes. The current callback implementation for header_ops.create assumes always a complete "struct ieee802154_addr" which AF_PACKET can't never handled and is greater than 8 bytes. For that reason we introduce now a "generic" create/parse header_ops callback which allows handling with intra-pan extended addresses only. This allows a small use-case with AF_PACKET to send "somehow" a valid dataframe over DGRAM. To keeping the current dev_hard_header behaviour we introduce a similar callback structure "wpan_dev_header_ops" which contains 802.15.4 specific upper-layer header creation functionality, which can be called by wpan_dev_hard_header.

The ESC dispatch value has some history and it originally was 0x7f in rfc4944 (see section-5.1). With the release of rfc6282 this value got part of the LOWPAN_IPHC range and was no longer available for ESC. Instead 0x40 was used as replacement (see section-2 in rfc6282). We have been checking the dispatch byte in an order where IPHC would always be evaluated before ESC and thus we would never reach the ESC check as the IPHC range already covers this value.

2015-08-116lowpan: add generic 6lowpan netdev private dataAlexander Aring
This patch introduced the 6lowpan netdev private data struct. We name it lowpan_priv and it's placed at the beginning of netdev private data. All lowpan interfaces should allocate this room at first of netdev private data. 6LoWPAN LL private data can be allocate by additional netdev private data, e.g. dev->priv_size should be "sizeof(struct lowpan_priv) + sizeof(LL_LOWPAN_PRIVATE_DATA)".

2015-08-10ieee802154: add ack request default handlingAlexander Aring
This patch introduce a new mib entry which isn't part of 802.15.4 but useful as default behaviour to set the ack request bit or not if we don't know if the ack request bit should set. This is currently used for stacks like IEEE 802.15.4 6LoWPAN.
