I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

This patch allows clients to roam multiple times within the same
originator-interval.
To enable this new feature two key aspects that have been introduced:
1) packets are always directed to the node that was originally
serving the roamed client which will then re-route the data
to the correct destination at any point in time;
2) the client flags handling mechanism has been properly modified
in order to allow multiple roamings withinin the same orig-int.
Therefore flags are now set properly even in this scenario.

tt_poss_change is a node-wide flag which tells whether the node is in a roaming
state (a client recently moved to/away from it) in order to let it apply special
re-routing rules. However this flag does not give a clear idea of the current
state because it is not possible to understand *which client* is actually
involved in the roaming. For this reason a better approach has been chosen:
instead of using a node-wide variable, the roaming state is now given by a
per-tt_entry ROAM flag which, in case of packet coming through the node, tells
the node whether the real destination is in roaming state or not.
With this flag change, batadv_check_unicast_ttvn() has also been rearranged in
order to better fit the new re-routing logic and to be much more readable.

This change is required to let the AP-isolation correctly working in case of

entry for C without adding any WIFI flag. The latter will be set only later,
once A has received C's advertisement from B. In this time period the
AP-Isolation (if enabled) would not correctly work since C is not marked as

With the current TT mechanism a new client joining the network is not
immediately able to communicate with other hosts because its MAC address has not
been announced yet. This situation holds until the first OGM containing its
joining event will be spread over the mesh network.
This behaviour can be acceptable in networks where the originator interval is a
small value (e.g. 1sec) but if that value is set to an higher time (e.g. 5secs)
the client could suffer from several malfunctions like DHCP client timeouts,
etc.
This patch adds an early detection mechanism that makes nodes in the network
able to recognise "not yet announced clients" by means of the broadcast packets
they emitted on connection (e.g. ARP or DHCP request). The added client will
then be confirmed upon receiving the OGM claiming it or purged if such OGM
is not received within a fixed amount of time.

During an OGM-interval (time between two different OGM sendings) the same client
could roam away and then roam back to us. In this case the node would add two
events to the events list (that is going to be sent appended to the next OGM). A
DEL one and an ADD one. Obviously they will only increase the overhead (either in
the air and on the receiver side) and eventually trigger wrong states/events
without producing any real effect.
For this reason we can safely delete any ADD event with its related DEL one.

bug introduced with cea194d90b11aff7fc289149e4c7f305fad3535a
In the current TT code, when a TT_Response containing a full table is received
from an originator, first the node purges all the clients for that originator in
the global translation-table and then merges the newly received table.
During the purging phase each client deletion is done by means of a call_rcu()
invocation and at the end of this phase the global entry counter for that
originator is set to 0. However the invoked rcu function decreases the global
entry counter for that originator by one too and since the rcu invocation is
likely to be postponed, the node will end up in first setting the counter to 0
and then decreasing it one by one for each deleted client.
This bug leads to having a wrong global entry counter for the related node, say
X. Then when the node with the broken counter will answer to a TT_REQUEST on
behalf of node X, it will create faulty TT_RESPONSE that will generate an
unrecoverable situation on the node that asked for the full table recover.
The non-recoverability is given by the fact that the node with the broken
counter will keep answering on behalf of X because its knowledge about X's state
(ttvn + tt_crc) is correct.
To solve this problem the counter is not explicitly set to 0 anymore and the
counter decrement is performed right before the invocation of call_rcu().

In case of a client X roaming from a generic node A to another node B, it is
possible that a third node C gets A's OGM but not B's. At this point in time, if
C wants to send data to X it will send a unicast packet destined to A. The
packet header will contain A's last ttvn (C got A's OGM and so it knows it).
The packet will travel towards A without being intercepted because the ttvn
contained in its header is the newest for A.
Once A will receive the packet, A's state will not report to be in a "roaming
phase" (because, after a roaming, once A sends out its OGM, all the changes are
committed and the node is considered not to be in the roaming state anymore)
and it will match the ttvn carried by the packet. Therefore there is no reason
for A to try to alter the packet's route, thus dropping the packet because the
destination client is not there anymore.
However, C is well aware that it's routing information towards the client X is
outdated as it received an OGM from A saying that the client roamed away.
Thanks to this detail, this patch introduces a small change in behaviour: as
long as C is in the state of not knowing the new location of client X it will
forward the traffic to its last known location using ttvn-1 of the destination.
By using an older ttvn node A will be forced to re-route the packet.
Intermediate nodes are also allowed to update the packet's destination as long
as they have the information about the client's new location.

- sizeof(int) may not be the same on ALL the architectures. Since we plan to use
choose_orig() as DHT hash function, we need to guarantee that, given the same
argument, the result is the same. Then it is correct to explicitly express
the size of the return type (and the second argument). Since the expected

With the current client announcement implementation, in case of roaming,
an update is triggered on the new AP serving the client. At that point
the new information is spread around by means of the OGM broadcasting
mechanism. Until this operations is not executed, no node is able to
correctly route traffic towards the client. This obviously causes packet
drops and introduces a delay in the time needed by the client to recover
its connections.
A new packet type called ROAMING_ADVERTISEMENT is added to account this
issue.
This message is sent in case of roaming from the new AP serving the
client to the old one and will contain the client MAC address. In this
way an out-of-OGM update is immediately committed, so that the old node
can update its global translation table. Traffic reaching this node will
then be redirected to the correct destination utilising the fresher
information. Thus reducing the packet drops and the connection recovery
delay.

The client announcement mechanism informs every mesh node in the network
of any connected non-mesh client, in order to find the path towards that
client from any given point in the mesh.
The old implementation was based on the simple idea of appending a data
buffer to each OGM containing all the client MAC addresses the node is
serving. All other nodes can populate their global translation tables
(table which links client MAC addresses to node addresses) using this
MAC address buffer and linking it to the node's address contained in the
OGM. A node that wants to contact a client has to lookup the node the
client is connected to and its address in the global translation table.
It is easy to understand that this implementation suffers from several
issues:
- big overhead (each and every OGM contains the entire list of
connected clients)
- high latencies for client route updates due to long OGM trip time and
OGM losses
The new implementation addresses these issues by appending client
changes (new client joined or a client left) to the OGM instead of
filling it with all the client addresses each time. In this way nodes
can modify their global tables by means of "updates", thus reducing the
overhead within the OGMs.
To keep the entire network in sync each node maintains a translation
table version number (ttvn) and a translation table checksum. These
values are spread with the OGM to allow all the network participants to
determine whether or not they need to update their translation table
information.
When a translation table lookup is performed in order to send a packet
to a client attached to another node, the destination's ttvn is added to
the payload packet. Forwarding nodes can compare the packet's ttvn with
their destination's ttvn (this node could have a fresher information
than the source) and re-route the packet if necessary. This greatly
reduces the packet loss of clients roaming from one AP to the next.
