Date: Sat, 2 May 2015 14:01:05 +0200 From: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@...3.blue> To: b.a.t.m.a.n@...ts.open-mesh.org, netdev@...r.kernel.org, bridge@...ts.linux-foundation.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Hideaki YOSHIFUJI <yoshfuji@...ux-ipv6.org>, Stephen Hemminger <stephen@...workplumber.org>, Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au>, Tom Herbert <tom@...bertland.com>, "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Subject: [PATCHv3 net-next 0/2] Exporting IGMP/MLD checking from bridge code The multicast optimizations in batman-adv are yet only usable and enabled in non-bridged scenarios. To be able to support bridged setups batman-adv needs to be able to detect IGMP/MLD queriers and reports on mesh nodes without bridges, too. See the following link for details: http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Multicast-optimizations-listener-reports To avoid duplicate code between the bridge and batman-adv, the IGMP/MLD message validation code is moved from the bridge to the IPv4/IPv6 stack. On the way, some refactoring to increase readability and to iron out some subtle differences between the IGMP and MLD parsing code is done. Cheers, Linus Changelog v3: * changed interface / restructuring of skb_checksum_trimmed() * kernel doc for skb_checksum_trimmed()/skb_checksum_maybe_trim() * fixed a memory leak in the cloned skb case in skb_checksum_trimmed() * fixed transport_len calculation in __ipv6_mc_check_mld(), make it relative to the skb transport header offset (= exclude the hop-by-hop option size in transport_len) Changelog v2: * Updated copyright for mcast_snoop.c -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
