2013-09-17batman-adv: set the TAG flag for the vid passed to BLAAntonio Quartulli
When receiving or sending a packet a packet on a VLAN, the vid has to be marked with the TAG flag in order to make any component in batman-adv understand that the packet is coming from a really tagged network. This fix the Bridge Loop Avoidance behaviour which was not able to send announces over VLAN interfaces.

2013-08-28batman-adv: set skb priority according to contentSimon Wunderlich
The skb priority field may help the wireless driver to choose the right queue (e.g. WMM queues). This should be set in batman-adv, as this information is only available here. This patch adds support for IPv4/IPv6 DS fields and VLAN PCP. Note that only VLAN PCP is used if a VLAN header is present. Also initially set TC_PRIO_CONTROL only for self-generated packets, and keep the priority set by higher layers.

2013-08-10batman-adv: fix potential kernel paging errors for unicast transmissionsLinus Lüssing
There are several functions which might reallocate skb data. Currently some places keep reusing their old ethhdr pointer regardless of whether they became invalid after such a reallocation or not. This potentially leads to kernel paging errors. This patch fixes these by refetching the ethdr pointer after the potential reallocations.

2013-06-24net: Unmap fragment page once iterator is doneWedson Almeida Filho
Callers of skb_seq_read() are currently forced to call skb_abort_seq_read() even when consuming all the data because the last call to skb_seq_read (the one that returns 0 to indicate the end) fails to unmap the last fragment page. With this patch callers will be allowed to traverse the SKB data by calling skb_prepare_seq_read() once and repeatedly calling skb_seq_read() as originally intended (and documented in the original commit 677e90eda), that is, only call skb_abort_seq_read() if the sequential read is actually aborted.

Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c net/wireless/nl80211.c The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right next to the deletion of another option. The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-06-10batman-adv: forward late OGMs from best next hopSimon Wunderlich
When a packet is received from another node first and later from the best next hop, this packet is dropped. However the first OGM was sent with the BATADV_NOT_BEST_NEXT_HOP flag and thus dropped by neighbors. The late OGM from the best neighbor is then dropped because it is a duplicate. If this situation happens constantly, a node might end up not forwarding the "valid" OGMs anymore, and nodes behind will starve from not getting valid OGMs. Fix this by refining the duplicate checking behaviour: The actions should depend on whether it was a duplicate for a neighbor only or for the originator. OGMs which are not duplicates for a specific neighbor will now be considered in batadv_iv_ogm_forward(), but only actually forwarded for the best next hop. Therefore, late OGMs from the best next hop are forwarded now and not dropped as duplicates anymore.

2013-06-10batman-adv: wait for rtnl in batadv_store_mesh_iface instead of failing if ↵Matthias Schiffer
it is taken The rtnl_lock in batadv_store_mesh_iface has been converted to a rtnl_trylock some time ago to avoid a possible deadlock between rtnl and s_active on removal of the sysfs nodes. The behaviour introduced by that was quite confusing as it could lead to the sysfs store to fail, making batman-adv setup scripts unreliable. As recently the sysfs removal was postponed to a worker not running with the rtnl taken, the deadlock can't occur any more and it is safe to change the trylock back to a lock to make the sysfs store reliable again.
