Hi,
we are currently starting to use batman-adv as mesh protocol on multicore
embedded devices. These usually don't have a lot of CPU power per core but
are reasonable fast when using multiple cores.
It was noticed that sending was working very well but receiving was
basically only using on CPU core per neighbor. The reason for that is
format of the (normal) incoming packet:
+--------------------+
| ip(v6)hdr |
+--------------------+
| inner ethhdr |
+--------------------+
| batadv unicast hdr |
+--------------------+
| outer ethhdr |
+--------------------+
The flow dissector will therefore stop after parsing the outer ethernet
header and will not parse the actual ipv(4|6)/... header of the packet. Our
assumption was now that it would help us to add minimal support to the flow
dissector to jump over the batman-adv unicast and inner ethernet header
(like in gre ETH_P_TEB). The patch was implemented in a slightly hacky
way [1] and the results looked quite promising.
I didn't get any feedback how the files should actually be named. So I am
now just using the names from RFC v3
The discussion of the RFC v3 can be found in the related patches of
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/849345/
The discussion of the RFC v2 can be found in the related patches of
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/844783/
Changes in v4:
==============
* added patch to change the u8/u16 to __u8/__u16 in
include/uapi/linux/batadv_packet.h
- requested by Willem de Bruijn <[email protected]>
Changes in v3:
==============
* removed change of uapi/linux/batman_adv.h to uapi/linux/batadv_genl.h
- requested by Willem de Bruijn <[email protected]>
* removed naming fixes for enums/defines in uapi/linux/batadv_genl.h
- requested by Willem de Bruijn <[email protected]>
* renamed uapi/linux/batadv.h to uapi/linux/batadv_packet.h
* moved batadv dissector functionality in own function
- requested by Tom Herbert <[email protected]>
* added support for flags FLOW_DISSECTOR_F_STOP_AT_ENCAP and
FLOW_DIS_ENCAPSULATION
- requested by Willem de Bruijn <[email protected]>
Changes in v2:
==============
* removed the batman-adv unicast packet header definition from flow_dissector.c
* moved the batman-adv packet.h/uapi headers around to provide the correct
definitions to flow_dissector.c
Kind regards,
Sven
Sven Eckelmann (5):
batman-adv: Let packet.h include its headers directly
batman-adv: Remove usage of BIT(x) in packet.h
batman-adv: Remove kernel fixed width types in packet.h
batman-adv: Convert packet.h to uapi header
flow_dissector: Parse batman-adv unicast headers

2.11.0
The BIT(x) macro is no longer available for uapi headers because it is
defined outside of it (linux/bitops.h). The use of it must therefore be
avoided and replaced by an appropriate other representation.

2.11.0
The batman-adv unicast packets contain a full layer 2 frame in encapsulated
form. The flow dissector must therefore be able to parse the batman-adv
unicast header to reach the layer 2+3 information.
+--------------------+
| ip(v6)hdr |
+--------------------+
| inner ethhdr |
+--------------------+
| batadv unicast hdr |
+--------------------+
| outer ethhdr |
+--------------------+
The obtained information from the upper layer can then be used by RPS to
schedule the processing on separate cores. This allows better distribution
of multiple flows from the same neighbor to different cores.

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.
