This patchset enables the usage of the batman-adv multicast optimizations
for scenarios involving bridges on top of e.g. bat0, too.
Along come two more patches adding according debugging facilities
to make it possible for the user to check why the multicast
optimizations might not work ideally to give hints about
what they might change about their topology.
Cheers, Linus
Changes in v6:
* New PATCH 2/3 inserted, moving logging to separate patch
* More verbose logging added to PATCH 2/3:
Bridge and querier state changes are logged too
* upper case to lower case for kernel doc of batadv_mcast_flags_open
(PATCH 2/3)
* Adding note to kernel doc of batadv_mcast_get_bridge about
increased refcount (PATCH 1/3)
* Printing some lines about current bridge and querier state to
debugfs too (PATCH 3/3)
Changes in v5 (PATCH 2/2 only):
* s/dat_cache/mcast_flags/ in kerneldoc (copy&paste error)
Changes in v4 (PATCH 2/2 only):
* initial {ad,e}dition of this patch
Changes in v3 (PATCH 1/2 only):
* Removed "RFC" tag in title again: The stubs and new export are upstream
in net-next and therefore going to be included in 3.17
* Added some debug output:
* Two warning messages:
-> Old kernel version or no bridge IGMP/MLD snooping compiled
* New batman-adv log-level "mcast":
-> Logging mcast flag changes
(a third debugging facility, a new table for debugfs for a global
mcast flag overview will be added in a separate patch later
as discussed with Simon)
Changes in v2 (PATCH 1/2 only):
* fetching local (= on this same kernel) multicast listeners from
the bridge instead of the bat0 interface if a bridge is present
- just like ip addresses and routes should be used from br0, the
same goes for multicast listeners
* beautification of batadv_mcast_mla_br_addr_cpy(), now using already
present functions from the kernel instead of own, hackish approach
* changed names of some goto-labels (not using "skip" anymore)
* using new, third bridge multicast export (because this export is
not upstream yet, I've added the "RFC" in the title):
br_multicast_has_querier_anywhere()
* adding compat stubs for two bridge multicast exports, to make
batman-adv compile- and usable even if a 3.16 kernel was compiled
without bridge code - the stubs are supposed to be upstream in the
bridge code in 3.17 (therefore just 'compat')
* updated kerneldocs for batadv_mcast_mla_bridge_get() and
batadv_mcast_mla_softif_get()
* The two sentences in the commit message starting with "Queriers: ..."
were slightly modified to include the third bridge multicast export
