v14 cover Basic Multicast Optimizations

This is the fourteenth revision of the basic multicast optimization patches.

Changes in v14 include:

* fixed compilation for CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_MCAST=n (issue was introduced by v13)
* fixed potential null pointer exception (moved ethhdr assignment in batadv_mcast_forw_mode() to after the check methods / pskb_may_pull()s)
* removed flag-list-"helper" functions
* removed methods which were performing both counting and orig_node retrieval in batadv_mcast_forw_mode(), instead doing that in two logical, seperate sections in batadv_mcast_forw_mode()

Cheers, Linus

PATCH v14 1/6 batman-adv: Multicast Listener Announcements via Translation Table

With this patch a node which has no bridge interface on top of its soft interface announces its local multicast listeners via the translation table.

PATCH v14 2/6 batman-adv: introduce capability initialization bitfield

In reply to Linus Lüssing

The new bitfield allows us to keep track whether capability subsets of an originator have gone through their initialization phase yet.

The translation table is the only user right now, but a new one will be added soon.

PATCH v14 3/6 batman-adv: Announce new capability via multicast TVLV

If the soft interface of a node is not part of a bridge then a node announces a new multicast TVLV: The existence of this TVLV signalizes that this node is announcing all of its multicast listeners via the translation table infrastructure.

PATCH v14 4/6 batman-adv: Modified forwarding behaviour for multicast packets

In reply to Linus Lüssing

With this patch a multicast packet is not always simply flooded anymore, the behaviour for the following cases is changed to reduce unnecessary overhead:

If all nodes within the horizon of a certain node have signalized multicast listener announcement capability then an IPv6 multicast packet with a destination of IPv6 link-local scope (excluding ff02::1) coming from the upstream of this node...

* ...is dropped if there is no according multicast listener in the translation table,
* ...is forwarded via unicast if there is a single node with interested multicast listeners
* ...and otherwise still gets flooded.

PATCH v14 5/6 batman-adv: Add IPv4 link-local/IPv6-ll-all-nodes multicast support

In reply to Linus Lüssing

With this patch a node may additionally perform the dropping or unicasting behaviour for a link-local IPv4 and link-local-all-nodes IPv6 multicast packet, too.

The extra counter and BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_UNSNOOPABLES flag is needed because with a future bridge snooping support integration a node with a bridge on top of its soft interface is not able to reliably detect its multicast listeners for IPv4 link-local and the IPv6 link-local-all-nodes addresses anymore (see RFC4541, section 2.1.2.2 and section 3).

Even though this new flag does make "no difference" now, it'll ensure a seamless integration of multicast bridge support without needing to break compatibility later.

Also note, that even with multicast bridge support it won't be possible to optimize 224.0.0.x and ff02::1 towards nodes with bridges, they will always receive these ranges.

Looks unsafe. How do you make sure that it is still in the list and not already already removed in the meantime? hlist_del_rcu does not re-initialize the pointers (only POISON them when CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST is activated). Thus calling hlist_del_rcu again on an object not in the list either kills other data structures or causes an Oops.

There are more *list_del* related problems of that type in your code. This is just one example I've picked.

See http://www.open-mesh.org/issues/217#note-5

Kind regards,
Sven

PATCH v14 6/6 batman-adv: Send multicast packets to nodes with a WANT_ALL flag

In reply to Linus Lüssing

With this patch a node sends IPv4 multicast packets to nodes which have a BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_IPV4 flag set and IPv6 multicast packets to nodes which have a BATADV_MCAST_WANT_ALL_IPV6 flag set, too.

Why is this needed? There are scenarios involving bridges where multicast report snooping and multicast TT announcements are not sufficient, which would lead to packet loss for some nodes otherwise:

MLDv1 and IGMPv1/IGMPv2 have a suppression mechanism
for multicast listener reports. When we have an MLDv1/IGMPv1/IGMPv2 querier behind a bridge then our snooping bridge is potentially not going to see any reports even though listeners exist because according to RFC4541 such reports are only forwarded to multicast routers:

-----------------------------------------------------------

            ---------------
{Querier}---|Snoop. Switch|----{Listener}
            ---------------
                       \           ^
                      -------
                      | br0 |  <  ???
                      -------

                   -~~__-__-~_/
I)  MLDv1 Query:  {Querier}  -> flooded
II) MLDv1 Report: {Listener} -> {Querier}

-> br0 cannot detect the {Listener}
=> Packets from {Sender} need to be forwarded to all
detected listeners and MLDv1/IGMPv1/IGMPv2 queriers.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Note that we do not need to explicitly forward to MLDv2/IGMPv3 queriers, because these protocols have no report suppression: A bridge has no trouble detecting MLDv2/IGMPv3 listeners.

Even though we do not support bridges yet we need to provide the according infrastructure already to not break compatibility later.
