1e2c2a4fe4 batman-adv: Add required includes to all files
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.

36fd61cb80 batman-adv: Use common Jenkins Hash implementation
An unoptimized version of the Jenkins one-at-a-time hash function is used
and partially copied all over the code wherever an hashtable is used.
Instead the optimized version shared between the whole kernel should be
used to reduce code duplication and use better optimized code.

Only the DAT code must use the old implementation because it is used as
distributed hash function which has to be common for all nodes.

dab7b62190 batman-adv: Use safer default config for optional features
The current default settings for optional features in batman-adv seems to
be based around the idea that the user only compiles what he requires. They
will automatically enabled when they are compiled in. For example the
network coding part of batman-adv is by default disabled in the out-of-tree
module but will be enabled when the code is compiled during the module
build.

But distributions like Debian just enable all features of the batman-adv
kernel module and hope that more experimental features or features with
possible negative effects have to be enabled using some runtime
configuration interface.

The network_coding feature can help in specific setups but also has
drawbacks and is not disabled by default in the out-of-tree module.
Disabling by default in the runtime config seems to be also quite sane.

The bridge_loop_avoidance is the only feature which is disabled by default
but may be necessary even in simple setups. Packet loops may even be
created during the initial node setup when this is not enabled. This is
different than STP on bridges because mesh is usually used on Adhoc WiFi.
Having two nodes (by accident) in the same LAN segment and in the same mesh
network is rather common in this situation.

6c519bad7b batman-adv: set up network coding packet handlers during module init
batman-adv saves its table of packet handlers as a global state, so handlers
must be set up only once (and setting them up a second time will fail).

The recently-added network coding support tries to set up its handler each time
a new softif is registered, which obviously fails when more that one softif is
used (and in consequence, the softif creation fails).

Fix this by splitting up batadv_nc_init into batadv_nc_init (which is called
only once) and batadv_nc_mesh_init (which is called for each softif); in
addition batadv_nc_free is renamed to batadv_nc_mesh_free to keep naming
consistent.

The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN
interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next.

An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was
reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that
code.

Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all
calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first

Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO

Network coded packets are transmitted with information about the two

MAC header, while the second is given in the payload/bat-header. The
second receiver uses promiscuous mode to receive the packet and check
the second destination.

until the next is available. This is done in a "coding buffer", which is
essentially a hash table with lists of packets. Each entry in the hash

packets that are buffered.

This patch adds skbs to the buffer just before forwarding them. The
buffer is traversed every 10 ms, where timed skbs are removed from the
buffer and transmitted. To allow experiments with the network coding
scheme, the timeout is tunable through a file in debugfs.

d56b1705e2 batman-adv: network coding - detect coding nodes and remove these after timeout
To use network coding efficiently, a relay must know when neighbor nodes
are likely to have enough information to be able to decode a network
coded packet. This is detected by using OGMs from batman-adv to discover
when one neighbor is in range of another neighbor. The relay check the
TLL to detect when an OGM is forwarded from one neighbor by another
neighbor, and thereby knows that the two neighbors are in range and thus
overhear packets sent by each other.

This information is saved in the orig_node struct to be used when
searching for coding opportunities. Two lists are added to the
orig_node struct: One for neighbors that can hear the orig_node
(outgoing nc_nodes) and one for neighbors that the orig_node can hear
(incoming nc_nodes).

Information about nc_nodes is kept for 10 seconds and is available
through debugfs in batman_adv/nc_nodes to use when debugging network
coding.

d353d8d4d9 batman-adv: network coding - add the initial infrastructure code
Network coding exploits the 802.11 shared medium to allow multiple
packets to be sent in a single transmission. In brief, a relay can XOR
two packets, and send the coded packet to two destinations. The
receivers can decode one of the original packets by XOR'ing the coded
packet with the other original packet. This will lead to increased
throughput in topologies where two packets cross one relay.

In a simple topology with three nodes, it takes four transmissions
without network coding to get one packet from Node A to Node B and one
from Node B to Node A:

 1.  Node A  ---- p1 --->  Node R                Node B
 2.  Node A                Node R  <--- p2 ----  Node B
 3.  Node A  <--- p2 ----  Node R                Node B
 4.  Node A                Node R  ---- p1 --->  Node B

With network coding, the relay only needs one transmission, which saves
us one slot of valuable airtime:

 1.  Node A  ---- p1 --->  Node R                Node B
 2.  Node A                Node R  <--- p2 ----  Node B
 3.  Node A  <- p1 x p2 -  Node R  - p1 x p2 ->  Node B

The same principle holds for a topology including five nodes. Here the
packets from Node A and Node B are overheard by Node C and Node D,
respectively. This allows Node R to send a network coded packet to save
one transmission:

   Node A                  Node B

    |     \              /    |
    |      p1          p2     |
    |       \          /      |
    p1       > Node R <       p2
    |                         |
    |         /      \        |
    |    p1 x p2    p1 x p2   |
    v       /          \      v
           /            \
   Node C <              > Node D

More information is available on the open-mesh.org wiki[1].

This patch adds the initial code to support network coding in
batman-adv. It sets up a worker thread to do house keeping and adds a
sysfs file to enable/disable network coding. The feature is disabled by
default, as it requires a wifi-driver with working promiscuous mode, and
also because it adds a small delay at each hop.
