Although batman-adv config is cycled in config_foreach, changes
are made in the network config. Thus, this one has to be committed.

batman-adv allows to configure three different objects:
* batadv hardif
- network interface used by batadv meshif to transport the batman-adv
packets
- its master interface is set to the batadv meshif
* batadv (meshif/softif)
- virtual interface that emulates a normal 802.3 interface on top
- encapsulates traffic and forwards it via the batadv hardifs
* batadv vlan
- potential VLAN ID on top of batadv meshif
- allows filtering of traffic from specific VIDs
While batadv vlan objects were already represented as an own proto
"batadv_vlan", the batadv meshif could never be fully configured using
/etc/config/network. Instead, parts of its configuration were stored in
/etc/config/batman_adv and some in the interfaces with the "batadv" proto.
To increase the confusion, the "batadv" proto wasn't used to define the
batadv meshif but to identify batadv (slave) hardifs. The batman-adv
meshifs were also never created directly but only when a hardif was
configured. The actual modification of the configuration settings was then
applied using a hotplug script hack. The batadv meshif network interface
could therefore only be created when an hardif was available and not
manipulated with ifup/ifdown. Also `/etc/init.d/network reload` didn't
modify the batadv meshif interface configuration correctly.
The "batadv" is now renamed to "batadv_hardif" and a new "batadv" proto is
used to configure the main (meshif) network interface with all its
configuration.
A simple network configuration with WiFi & ethernet interfaces and static
IP on top of bat0 would look like:
# batadv meshif bat0
config interface 'bat0'
option proto 'batadv'
option routing_algo 'BATMAN_IV'
option aggregated_ogms 1
option ap_isolation 0
option bonding 0
option fragmentation 1
#option gw_bandwidth '10000/2000'
option gw_mode 'off'
#option gw_sel_class 20
option log_level 0
option orig_interval 1000
option bridge_loop_avoidance 1
option distributed_arp_table 1
option multicast_mode 1
option network_coding 0
option hop_penalty 30
option isolation_mark '0x00000000/0x00000000'
# add *single* wifi-iface with network bat0_hardif_wlan as hardif to bat0
config interface 'bat0_hardif_wlan'
option mtu '1536'
option proto 'batadv_hardif'
option master 'bat0'
# option ifname is filled out by the wifi-iface
# add eth0 as hardif to bat0

hop_penalty is the last remaining setting which is directly writing to
sysfs instead of using a implementation (sysfs vs. netlink) abstraction
layer. batctl now provides a wrapper function that allows the script to
directly use it to take care of communicating with the driver.
Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
The batctl tool should be used for modifying settings in the batman-adv
driver to keep the scripts consistent and allow to use the correct way of
communicating with the kernel (sysfs vs. netlink).
The gw_mode, gw_bandwidth and gw_sel_class options are all handled by
the same gw_mode command in batctl and thus have to be combined depending
on the "gw_mode" value.

The batctl binary is currently optional for batman-adv installations. But
new configuration settings will only be exposed via generic netlink. The
batctl tool will therefore be required to modify them.
batctl must therefore no longer depend on batman-adv but batman-adv must

batctl.

This patch fixes an issue in the translation table code potentially
leading to a TT Request + Response storm. The issue may occur for nodes
involving BLA and an inconsistent configuration of the batman-adv AP
isolation feature. However, since the new multicast optimizations, a
single, malformed packet may lead to a mesh-wide, persistent
Denial-of-Service, too.
The issue occurs because nodes are currently OR-ing the TT sync flags of
all originators announcing a specific MAC address via the
translation table. When an intermediate node now receives a TT Request
and wants to answer this on behave of the destination node then this
intermediate node now responds with an altered flag field and broken
CRC. The next OGM of the real destination will lead to a CRC mismatch
and triggering a TT Request and Response again.
Furthermore, the OR-ing is currently never undone as long as at least
one originator announcing the according MAC address remains, leading to
the potential persistency of this issue.
This patch fixes this issue by storing the flags used in the CRC
calculation on a a per TT orig entry basis to be able to respond with
the correct, original flags in an intermediate TT Response for one
thing. And to be able to correctly unset sync flags once all nodes
announcing a sync flag vanish for another.

BATMAN_V (in the upcoming release) will use structures from the mac80211
package. These structures can be incompatible to the structures defined in
the header of the kernel. This can lead to weird problems like stack
overflows or memory corruptions.
To avoid this, the batman-adv has to be compiled against the mac80211
headers instead of the kernel headers. But this requires that the
compatibility headers of compat-wireless are used. So the batman-adv
compatibility layer has (mostly) be removed and instead the
compat-wireless/mac80211 compat layer has to be used.
