2026-09-04treewide: refresh kmalloc_obj() conversionsKees Cook1-1/+1
This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc() family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's "--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control flow indicator I could find. Build tested allmodconfig on x86, arm64, arm, loongarch, mips, powerpc, riscv, and s390 with no new warnings.

2026-08-04batman-adv: switch var declarations to reverse x-mas tree orderSven Eckelmann1-6/+6
The network related code should use for local variable declarations an ordering scheme which orders lines longest to shortest. Initializations should only be kept in the declarations when the dependencies between them are not preventing the reverse x-mas tree order. Many functions are already using this order. The remaining ones were supposed to slowly convert to the x-mas tree order when working on them. But this never happened because the patches tried to only modify the relevant lines. Instead of getting better, the order often just became worse. Just fix the remaining offending functions to finally solve this coding style (minor) problem. The anonymous dhcp structs were only extracted to have a clean reverse x-mas tree in functions and are not yet meant as an opportunity for further cleanups.

2026-08-04batman-adv: add missing kernel-doc commentsSven Eckelmann1-0/+82
batman-adv requires kernel-doc for all functions and data types visible outside their own translation unit. Promoting a function from static to module-wide visibility currently requires adding documentation from scratch. However, this burden falls on whoever promotes a function from static to module-wide visibility, rather than its original implementer. Add the missing kernel-doc comments for the remaining undocumented functions and data types to reduce the complexity for new contributions. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

With the hard_iface now being created for a specific mesh_iface, it is beneficial not to set mesh_iface to NULL when the interface is disabled, but instead keeping it immutable after the initial setup of the hard_iface. By also holding the reference to the mesh_iface until the hard_iface is released, hard_ifaces iterated over under RCU will always point to a valid mesh_iface.

2026-06-28batman-adv: create hardif only for netdevs that are part of a meshNora Schiffer1-78/+42
batman-adv is using netdev notifiers to create a hard_iface struct for every Ethernet-like netdev in the system. These hardifs are tracked in a global linked list, which results in a few performance issues: Lookups in this list are O(n) in the total number of netdevs. As a hardif is looked up when a netdev is removed, this also takes O(n) in the number of netdevs, and removing n netdevs may take O(n^2). This slowdown will always happen when the batman-adv module is loaded, no mesh needs to be active. With the hardif being referenced as iflink private data, the global list is only needed for hardifs that are *not* part of a mesh (that is, the hardif is unused). To prepare for removing the global list, only create a hardif struct when an interface is added to a mesh and destroy it on removal. As adding/removing and enabling/disabling a hardif become one and the same, batadv_hardif_add_interface() is merged into batadv_hardif_enable_interface(), and batadv_hardif_remove_interface() can be dropped altogether.

2026-06-13batman-adv: gw: don't deselect gateway with active hardifSven Eckelmann1-26/+2
The batadv_hardif_cnt() was previously checking if there is an batadv_hard_iface->mesh_iface which is has the same mesh_iface. And since batadv_hardif_disable_interface() was resetting the batadv_hard_iface->mesh_iface after this check, it had to verify whether *1* interface was still part of the mesh_iface before it started the gateway deselection. But after batadv_hardif_cnt() is now checking the lower interfaces of mesh_iface and batadv_hardif_disable_interface() already removed the interface via netdev_upper_dev_unlink() earlier in this function, the check must now make sure that *0* interfaces can be found by batadv_hardif_cnt() before selected gateway must be deselected. Otherwise the deselection would already happen one batadv_hard_iface too early. Because a 0 hardif count from batadv_hardif_cnt() is equal to an empty list, it is possible to replace the counting with a simple list_empty().

2026-06-03batman-adv: tt: directly retrieve wifi flags of net_deviceSven Eckelmann1-7/+18
batadv_tt_local_add() tries to retrieve the wifi flags of an interface to mark the TT entry as wifi client for the AP isolation feature. In the past, it was necessary to look up the batadv_hard_iface because the wifi_flags were stored inside this struct. But with the batadv_wifi_net_devices rhashtable, it is preferred to directly retrieve the wifi_flags instead of the indirect route via batadv_hard_iface - which at the end only provides the net_device (which we used to find the batadv_hard_iface). This will also be essential when the global batadv_hardif_list is removed and each lookup via batadv_hardif_get_by_netdev() will require the RTNL lock.

2026-06-01batman-adv: extract netdev wifi detection information objectSven Eckelmann1-14/+177
Previously, wifi_flags were stored directly in batadv_hard_iface, which is created for every network interface on the system (including those never attached to a mesh interface). This wastes memory and complicates the long-term goal of lazily allocating batadv_hard_iface only for interfaces that actually join a mesh. The problem is that several batman-adv features need wifi detection for net_devices (and their underlying devices) regardless of whether a batadv_hard_iface exists for them: * B.A.T.M.A.N. IV TQ hop penalty calculation * B.A.T.M.A.N. V ELP probing / throughput estimation * AP isolation To decouple wifi detection from batadv_hard_iface lifetime, introduce a global rhashtable (batadv_wifi_net_devices) mapping net_device pointers to batadv_wifi_net_device_state objects. Only net_devices that are actually detected as (indirect) wifi interfaces occupy an entry, keeping the common (non-wifi) case allocation-free. Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

2026-02-21batman-adv: Avoid double-rtnl_lock ELP metric workerSven Eckelmann1-4/+4
batadv_v_elp_get_throughput() might be called when the RTNL lock is already held. This could be problematic when the work queue item is cancelled via cancel_delayed_work_sync() in batadv_v_elp_iface_disable(). In this case, an rtnl_lock() would cause a deadlock. To avoid this, rtnl_trylock() was used in this function to skip the retrieval of the ethtool information in case the RTNL lock was already held. But for cfg80211 interfaces, batadv_get_real_netdev() was called - which also uses rtnl_lock(). The approach for __ethtool_get_link_ksettings() must also be used instead and the lockless version __batadv_get_real_netdev() has to be called.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci.

Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

2025-04-16batman-adv: fix duplicate MAC address checkMatthias Schiffer1-13/+18
batadv_check_known_mac_addr() is both too lenient and too strict: - It is called from batadv_hardif_add_interface(), which means that it checked interfaces that are not used for batman-adv at all. Move it to batadv_hardif_enable_interface(). Also, restrict it to hardifs of the same mesh interface; different mesh interfaces should not interact at all. The batadv_check_known_mac_addr() argument is changed from `struct net_device` to `struct batadv_hard_iface` to achieve this. - The check only cares about hardifs in BATADV_IF_ACTIVE and BATADV_IF_TO_BE_ACTIVATED states, but interfaces in BATADV_IF_INACTIVE state should be checked as well, or the following steps will not result in a warning then they should: - Add two interfaces in down state with different MAC addresses to a mesh as hardifs - Change the MAC addresses so they conflict - Set interfaces to up state Now there will be two active hardifs with the same MAC address, but no warning. Fix by only ignoring hardifs in BATADV_IF_NOT_IN_USE state. The RCU lock can be dropped, as we're holding RTNL anyways when the function is called.

2022-03-02batman-adv: Don't expect inter-netns unique iflink indicesSven Eckelmann1-5/+14
The ifindex doesn't have to be unique for multiple network namespaces on the same machine. $ ip netns add test1 $ ip -net test1 link add dummy1 type dummy $ ip netns add test2 $ ip -net test2 link add dummy2 type dummy $ ip -net test1 link show dev dummy1 6: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 96:81:55:1e:dd:85 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff $ ip -net test2 link show dev dummy2 6: dummy2: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 5a:3c:af:35:07:c3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff But the batman-adv code to walk through the various layers of virtual interfaces uses this assumption because dev_get_iflink handles it internally and doesn't return the actual netns of the iflink. And dev_get_iflink only documents the situation where ifindex == iflink for physical devices. But only checking for dev->netdev_ops->ndo_get_iflink is also not an option because ipoib_get_iflink implements it even when it sometimes returns an iflink != ifindex and sometimes iflink == ifindex. The caller must therefore make sure itself to check both netns and iflink + ifindex for equality. Only when they are equal, a "physical" interface was detected which should stop the traversal. On the other hand, vxcan_get_iflink can also return 0 in case there was currently no valid peer. In this case, it is still necessary to stop.

2022-03-02batman-adv: Request iflink once in batadv_get_real_netdeviceSven Eckelmann1-4/+5
There is no need to call dev_get_iflink multiple times for the same net_device in batadv_get_real_netdevice. And since some of the ndo_get_iflink callbacks are dynamic (for example via RCUs like in vxcan_get_iflink), it could easily happen that the returned values are not stable. The pre-checks before __dev_get_by_index are then of course bogus.

2022-03-02batman-adv: Demote batadv-on-batadv skip error messageSven Eckelmann1-2/+2
The error message "Cannot find parent device" was shown for users of macvtap (on batadv devices) whenever the macvtap was moved to a different netns. This happens because macvtap doesn't provide an implementation for rtnl_link_ops->get_link_net. The situation for which this message is printed is actually not an error but just a warning that the optional sanity check was skipped. So demote the message from error to warning and adjust the text to better explain what happened.

2021-08-08batman-adv: Drop NULL check before dropping referencesSven Eckelmann1-14/+7
The check if a batman-adv related object is NULL or not is now directly in the batadv_*_put functions. It is not needed anymore to perform this check outside these function: The changes were generated using a coccinelle semantic patch: @@ expression E; @@ - if (likely(E != NULL)) ( batadv_backbone_gw_put | batadv_claim_put | batadv_dat_entry_put | batadv_gw_node_put | batadv_hardif_neigh_put | batadv_hardif_put | batadv_nc_node_put | batadv_nc_path_put | batadv_neigh_ifinfo_put | batadv_neigh_node_put | batadv_orig_ifinfo_put | batadv_orig_node_put | batadv_orig_node_vlan_put | batadv_softif_vlan_put | batadv_tp_vars_put | batadv_tt_global_entry_put | batadv_tt_local_entry_put | batadv_tt_orig_list_entry_put | batadv_tt_req_node_put | batadv_tvlv_container_put | batadv_tvlv_handler_put )(E); Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org> Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de>
2021-06-02batman-adv: Drop reduntant batadv interface checkSven Eckelmann1-9/+0

2021-06-02batman-adv: Don't manually reattach hard-interfaceSven Eckelmann1-34/+0
The batadv_hardif_enable_interface is now only called from the callback ndo_add_slave. This callback is only used by do_set_master in the rtnetlink code which only does two things: 1. remove the net_device from its old master 2. add the net_device to its new batadv master The code to replicate the first step in batman-adv is therefore unused since the sysfs code was dropped.

2021-06-02batman-adv: Avoid name based attaching of hard interfacesSven Eckelmann1-10/+4
The sysfs code for the batman-adv/mesh_iface file was receiving a string of the batadv interface. This interface name was then provided to the code which shared sysfs+rtnetlink code for attaching an hard-interface to an batadv interface. The rtnetlink code was also using the (extracted) interface name from the ndo_add_slave callback to increase the shared code - even when it would have been more efficient to use the provided net_device object directly instead of searching it again (based on its name) in batadv_hardif_enable_interface. But this indirect handling is no longer necessary because the sysfs code was dropped. There is now only a single code path which is using batadv_hardif_enable_interface.

2021-06-02batman-adv: Drop implicit creation of batadv net_devicesSven Eckelmann1-10/+2
The sysfs code in batman-adv was could create a new batadv interfaces on demand when a string (interface name) was written to the batman-adv/mesh_iface file. But the code no longer exists in the current batman-adv codebase. The helper code to implement this behavior must be considered as unused and can be dropped.
