2015-09-17ieee802154: 6lowpan: remove packet type to hostAlexander Aring
This patch remove the packet_type to host and leave the mac pkt_type. By running 'grep -r "pkt_type" net/ipv6', the IPv6 stack will evaluate this value for PACKET_BROADCAST. Instead of overwriting this value we will leave the mac value there which is broadcasts if the mac frame was a broadcast frame.

This patch adds dummy handlers for all known IEEE 802.15.4 dispatch values which prints a warning that we don't support these dispatches right now. Also we add a warning to the RX_CONTINUE case inside of lowpan_rx_handlers_result which should now never happend.

This patch introduce an earlier check if a 6LoWPAN frame can be valid. This contains at first for checking if the header contains a dispatch byte and isn't the nalp dispatch value, which means it isn't a 6LoWPAN packet. Also we add a check if we can derference the dispatch value by checking if skb->len is unequal zero.

2015-09-17ieee820154: 6lowpan: dispatch evaluation reworkAlexander Aring
This patch complete reworks the evaluation of 6lowpan dispatch value by introducing a receive handler mechanism for each dispatch value. A list of changes: - Doing uncompression on-the-fly when FRAG1 is received, this require some special handling for 802.15.4 lltype in generic 6lowpan branch for setting the payload length correct. - Fix dispatch mask for fragmentation. - Add IPv6 dispatch evaluation for FRAG1. - Add skb_unshare for dispatch which might manipulate the skb data buffer.

We don't need to check if the wpan interface is running because the lowpan_rcv is the packet layer receive handler for the wpan interface.

This patch moves the open count handling while doing open of a lowpan interface. We need the packet handler register at first when one lowpan interface is up. There exists a small case when all lowpan interfaces are down and the 802154 packet layer is still registered. To reduce some overhead we will register the packet layer when the first lowpan interface comes up and unregister when the last interface will become down.

Instead of using always the variable name "dev" for both we rename the "dev" variable to wdev which means the wpan net_device and ldev which means a lowpan net_device.

All lowpan interfaces should allocate this room at first of netdev private data. 6LoWPAN LL private data can be allocate by additional netdev private data, e.g. dev->priv_size should be "sizeof(struct lowpan_priv) + sizeof(LL_LOWPAN_PRIVATE_DATA)".

We currently supports multiple lowpan interfaces per wpan interface. I never saw any use case into such functionality. We drop this feature now because it's much easier do deal with address changes inside the under laying wpan interface.

2015-06-02ieee802154: 6lowpan: set ackreq when neededAlexander Aring
This patch sets the acknowledge request bit inside the 802.15.4 mac header when frame retries is 0 or above. The other frame retries value which is -1 indicates that the transmitter doesn't care about an acknowledge frame which will be ignored after transmitting if the node sends anyway an ack frame after receiving. This is currently unnecessary traffic if the max frame retries parameter is -1.

2015-05-23mac802154: remove mib lockAlexander Aring
This patch removes the mib lock. The new locking mechanism is to protect the mib values with the rtnl lock. Note that this isn't always necessary if we have an interface up the most mib values are readonly (e.g. address settings). With this behaviour we can remove locking in hotpath like frame parsing completely. It depends on context if we need to hold the rtnl lock or not, this makes the callbacks of ieee802154_mlme_ops unnecessary because these callbacks hols always the locks.

2015-03-14ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix ARPHRD to ARPHRD_6LOWPANAlexander Aring
Currently there exists two interface types with ARPHRD_IEEE802154. These are the 802.15.4 interfaces and 802.15.4 6LoWPAN interfaces. This is more a bug because some userspace applications checks on this value like wireshark. This occurs that wireshark will always try to parse a lowpan interface as 802.15.4 frames. With ARPHRD_6LOWPAN wireshark will parse it as IPv6 frames which is correct. Much applications checks on this value to readout the EUI64 mac address which should be the same for ARPHRD_6LOWPAN.
