Julia Lawall e281cf8966 Staging: batman-adv: introduce missing kfree
Error handling code following a kzalloc should free the allocated data.
Similarly for usb-alloc urb.

The semantic match that finds the first problem is as follows:

BATMAN-ADV
----------

Batman-advanced is a new approach to wireless networking which does no longer
operate on the IP basis. Unlike B.A.T.M.A.N, which exchanges information
using UDP packets and sets routing tables, batman-advanced operates on ISO/OSI
Layer 2 only and uses and routes (or better: bridges) Ethernet Frames. It
emulates a virtual network switch of all nodes participating. Therefore all
nodes appear to be link local, thus all higher operating protocols won't be
affected by any changes within the network. You can run almost any protocol
above B.A.T.M.A.N. Advanced, prominent examples are: IPv4, IPv6, DHCP, IPX.

This is batman-advanced implemented as Linux kernel driver. It does not depend
on any network (other) driver, and can be used on wifi as well as ethernet,
vpn, etc ... (anything with ethernet-style layer 2).
It compiles against and should work with Linux 2.6.20 - 2.6.31. Supporting older
versions is not planned, but it's probably easy to backport it. If you work on a
backport, feel free to contact us.  :-)

COMPILE
-------
To compile against your currently installed kernel, just type:

# make

if you want to compile against some other kernel, use:

# make KERNELPATH=/path/to/kernel

USAGE
-----

insmod the batman-adv.ko in your kernel:

# insmod batman-adv.ko

the module is now waiting for activation. You must add some interfaces
on which batman can operate. Each interface must be added separately:

# echo wlan0 > /proc/net/batman-adv/interfaces

( # echo wlan1 > /proc/net/batman-adv/interfaces )
( # echo eth0 > /proc/net/batman-adv/interfaces )
( ... )

Now batman starts broadcasting on this interface.
You can now view the table of originators (mesh participants) with:

# cat /proc/net/batman-adv/originators

The module will create a new interface "bat0", which can be used as a
regular interface:

# ifconfig bat0 inet 192.168.0.1 up
# ping 192.168.0.2
...

If you want topology visualization, your meshnode must be configured
as VIS-server:

# echo "server" > /proc/net/batman-adv/vis

Each node is either configured as "server" or as "client" (default:
"client"). Clients send their topology data to the server next to them,
and server synchronize with other servers. If there is no server
configured (default) within the mesh, no topology information will be
transmitted. With these "synchronizing servers", there can be 1 or
more vis servers sharing the same (or at least very similar) data.

When configured as server, you can get a topology snapshot of your mesh:

# cat /proc/net/batman-adv/vis

This output format is a graphviz formatted text file which can be
processed with graphviz-tools like dot.
The labels are similar/compatible to the ETX metric, 1.0 means perfect
connection (100%), 2.0 means 50%, 3.0 means 33% and so on.

Alternatively, a JSON output format is available. The format can be set
using by writing either "dot_draw" or "json" into the vis_format file.
"dot_draw" is selected by default.

echo "json" > /proc/net/batman-adv/vis_format

In very mobile scenarios, you might want to adjust the originator
interval to a lower value. This will make the mesh more responsive to
topology changes, but will also increase the overhead. Please make sure
that all nodes in your mesh use the same interval. The default value
is 1000 ms (1 second).

# echo 1000 > /proc/net/batman-adv/orig_interval

To deactivate batman, do:

# echo "" > /proc/net/batman-adv/interfaces

BATCTL
------

B.A.T.M.A.N.  advanced  operates on layer 2 and thus all hosts partici-
pating in the virtual switch are completely transparent for all  proto-
cols above layer 2. Therefore the common diagnosis tools do not work as
expected. To overcome these problems batctl was created. At the  moment
the  batctl contains ping, traceroute, tcpdump and interfaces to the
kernel module settings.

For more information, please see the manpage (man batctl).

batctl is available on http://www.open-mesh.net/
