The "struct batadv_tvlv_tt_data" uses a dynamically sized set of
trailing elements. Specifically, it uses an array of structures of type
"batadv_tvlv_tt_vlan_data". So, use the preferred way in the kernel
declaring a flexible array [1].
At the same time, prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang
of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with
__counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via
CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for
strcpy/memcpy-family functions). In this case, it is important to note
that the attribute used is specifically __counted_by_be since variable
"num_vlan" is of type __be16.
The following change to the "batadv_tt_tvlv_ogm_handler_v1" function:
- tt_vlan = (struct batadv_tvlv_tt_vlan_data *)(tt_data + 1);
- tt_change = (struct batadv_tvlv_tt_change *)(tt_vlan + num_vlan);
+ tt_change = (struct batadv_tvlv_tt_change *)((void *)tt_data
+ + flex_size);
is intended to prevent the compiler from generating an "out-of-bounds"
notification due to the __counted_by attribute. The compiler can do a
pointer calculation using the vlan_data flexible array memory, or in
other words, this may be calculated as an array offset, since it is the
same as:
&tt_data->vlan_data[num_vlan]
Therefore, we go past the end of the array. In other "multiple trailing
flexible array" situations, this has been solved by addressing from the
base pointer, since the compiler either knows the full allocation size
or it knows nothing about it (this case, since it came from a "void *"
function argument).
The order in which the structure batadv_tvlv_tt_data and the structure
batadv_tvlv_tt_vlan_data are defined must be swap to avoid an incomplete
type error.
Also, avoid the open-coded arithmetic in memory allocator functions [2]
using the "struct_size" macro and use the "flex_array_size" helper to
clarify some calculations, when possible.
Moreover, the new structure member also allow us to avoid the open-coded
arithmetic on pointers in some situations. Take advantage of this.
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and
modified manually.

Implement functionality to receive and forward a new TVLV capable
multicast packet type.
The new batman-adv multicast packet type allows to contain several
originator destination addresses within a TVLV. Routers on the way will
potentially split the batman-adv multicast packet and adjust its tracker
TVLV contents.
Routing decisions are still based on the selected BATMAN IV or BATMAN V
routing algorithm. So this new batman-adv multicast packet type retains
the same loop-free properties.
Also a new OGM multicast TVLV flag is introduced to signal to other
nodes that we are capable of handling a batman-adv multicast packet and
multicast tracker TVLV. And that all of our hard interfaces have an MTU
of at least 1280 bytes (IPv6 minimum MTU), as a simple solution for now
to avoid MTU issues while forwarding.

Prepare TVLV infrastructure for more packet types, in particular the
upcoming batman-adv multicast packet type.
For that swap the OGM vs. unicast-tvlv packet boolean indicator to an
explicit unsigned integer packet type variable. And provide the skb
to a call to batadv_tvlv_containers_process(), as later the multicast
packet's TVLV handler will need to have access not only to the TVLV but
the full skb for forwarding. Forwarding will be invoked from the
multicast packet's TVLVs' contents later.

The batman-adv source code was using the year of publication (to net-next)
as "last" year for the copyright statement. The whole source code mentioned
in the MAINTAINERS "BATMAN ADVANCED" section was handled as a single entity
regarding the publishing year.
This avoided having outdated (in sense of year information - not copyright
holder) publishing information inside several files. But since the simple
"update copyright year" commit (without other changes) in the file was not
well received in the upstream kernel, the option to not have a copyright
year (for initial and last publication) in the files are chosen instead.
More detailed information about the years can still be retrieved from the
SCM system.

To be able to apply our group aware multicast optimizations to packets
with a scope greater than link-local we need to not only keep track of
multicast listeners but also multicast routers.
With this patch a node detects the presence of multicast routers on
its segment by checking if
/proc/sys/net/ipv{4,6}/conf/<bat0|br0(bat)>/mc_forwarding is set for one
thing. This option is enabled by multicast routing daemons and needed
for the kernel's multicast routing tables to receive and route packets.
For another thing if a bridge is configured on top of bat0 then the
presence of an IPv6 multicast router behind this bridge is currently
detected by checking for an IPv6 multicast "All Routers Address"
(ff02::2). This should later be replaced by querying the bridge, which
performs proper, RFC4286 compliant Multicast Router Discovery (our
simplified approach includes more hosts than necessary, most notably
not just multicast routers but also unicast ones and is not applicable
for IPv4).
If no multicast router is detected then this is signalized via the new
BATADV_MCAST_WANT_NO_RTR4 and BATADV_MCAST_WANT_NO_RTR6
multicast tvlv flags.

NIC drivers generally try to ensure that the "network header" is aligned
to a 4-byte boundary. This is not always possible: When Ethernet frames are
encapsulated in other packets with 4-byte aligned headers, the inner
Ethernet header will have 4-byte alignment, and in consequence, the inner
network header is aligned to 2, but not to 4 bytes.
Most parts of batman-adv only care about 2-byte alignment; in particular,
no unaligned accesses occur in performance-critical paths that handle
actual payload data. This is not true for OGM handling: the seqno and crc
fields are accessed as 32-bit values. To avoid these unaligned accesses,
this patch reduces the expected packet alignment to 2 bytes for all of
batadv's packet types.
As no unaligned accesses existed on the performance-critical paths anyways,
this chance does have any (positive or negative) effect on performance, but
it still makes sense to avoid these accesses to prevent log noise when
examining other unaligned accesses in the kernel while batman-adv is
active.

The header file is used by different userspace programs to inject packets
or to decode sniffed packets. It should therefore be available to them as
userspace header.
Also other components in the kernel (like the flow dissector) require
access to the packet definitions to be able to decode ETH_P_BATMAN ethernet
packets.
