2015-08-15ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix non-lowpan wpan interfacesAlexander Aring
We receive all 802.15.4 frames on the packet handler "lowpan_rcv" this patch checks if the wpan device belongs to a lowpan interface. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2015-08-15ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix packet layer registrationAlexander Aring
This patch fixes 802.15.4 packet layer registration when mutliple lowpan interfaces will be added. We need to register the packet layer at the first lowpan interface and deregister it at the last interface. This done by open_count variable which is protected by rtnl. Additional do a quiet fix by adding dev_put(real_dev) when netdev registration fails, which fix the refcount for the wpan dev.

2015-08-116lowpan: add generic 6lowpan netdev private dataAlexander Aring
This patch introduced the 6lowpan netdev private data struct. We name it lowpan_priv and it's placed at the beginning of netdev private data. 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)".

2015-08-10ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix error frag handlingAlexander Aring
This patch fixes the error handling for lowpan_xmit_fragment by replace "-PTR_ERR" to "PTR_ERR". PTR_ERR returns already a negative errno code. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2015-08-10ieee802154: add ack request default handlingAlexander Aring
This patch introduce a new mib entry which isn't part of 802.15.4 but useful as default behaviour to set the ack request bit or not if we don't know if the ack request bit should set. This is currently used for stacks like IEEE 802.15.4 6LoWPAN.

2015-08-10ieee802154: 6lowpan: remove multiple lowpan per wpan supportAlexander Aring
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. This patch removes the multiple lowpan interface and adds a lowpan_dev netdev pointer into the wpan_dev, if this pointer isn't null the wpan interface belongs to the assigned lowpan interface.

2015-07-26inet: frag: change *_frag_mem_limit functions to take netns_frags as argumentFlorian Westphal
Followup patch will call it after inet_frag_queue was freed, so q->net doesn't work anymore (but netf = q->net; free(q); mem_limit(netf) would). Tested-by: Frank Schreuder <fschreuder@transip.nl> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.

2015-05-23mac802154: use atomic ops for sequence incrementationAlexander Aring
This patch will use atomic operations for sequence number incrementation while MAC header generation. Upper layers like af_802154 or 6LoWPAN could call this function in a parallel context while generating 802.15.4 MAC header before queuing into wpan interfaces transmit queue.

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. BTLE 6LoWPAN and ieee802154 6LoWPAN will share now the same ARPHRD. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2015-02-14ieee802154: fix netns settingsNicolas Dichtel
6LoWPAN currently doesn't supports x-netns and works only in init_net. With this patch, we ensure that: - the wpan interface cannot be moved to another netns; - the 6lowpan interface cannot be moved to another netns; - the wpan interface is in the same netns than the 6lowpan interface; - the 6lowpan interface is in init_net.

2015-01-08ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix Makefile entryAlexander Aring
Since commit ea81ac2e7050798109356150ea16e71622a5c329 ("ieee802154: create 6lowpan sub-directory") we have a subdirectory for the ieee802154 6lowpan implementation. This commit also moves the Kconfig entry inside of net/ieee802154/6lowpan/ and forgot to rename the Makefile entry from obj-$(CONFIG_IEEE802154_6LOWPAN) to obj-y and handle the obj-$(CONFIG_IEEE802154_6LOWPAN) inside the created 6lowpan directory.
