From: Nora Schiffer <neocturne@universe-factory.net>
batman-adv is using netdev notifiers to create a hard_iface struct for
every Ethernet-like netdev in the system. These hardifs are tracked in a
global linked list, which results in a few performance issues:
Lookups in this list are O(n) in the total number of netdevs. As a
hardif is looked up when a netdev is removed, this also takes O(n) in
the number of netdevs, and removing n netdevs may take O(n^2). This
slowdown will always happen when the batman-adv module is loaded, no
mesh needs to be active.
With the hardif being referenced as iflink private data, the global list
is only needed for hardifs that are *not* part of a mesh (that is, the
hardif is unused). To prepare for removing the global list, only create
a hardif struct when an interface is added to a mesh and destroy it on
removal.
As adding/removing and enabling/disabling a hardif become one and the
same, batadv_hardif_add_interface() is merged into
batadv_hardif_enable_interface(), and batadv_hardif_remove_interface()
can be dropped altogether.

With interfaces being kept track of as iflink private data, there is no
need for the global list anymore. batadv_hardif_get_by_netdev() can now
use netdev_master_upper_dev_get()+netdev_lower_dev_get_private() to find
the hardif corresponding to a netdev.

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
With the hard_iface now being created for a specific mesh_iface, it is
beneficial not to set mesh_iface to NULL when the interface is disabled,
but instead keeping it immutable after the initial setup of the
hard_iface. By also holding the reference to the mesh_iface until the
hard_iface is released, hard_ifaces iterated over under RCU will always
point to a valid mesh_iface.

With hardifs only existing while an interface is part of a mesh, the
BATADV_IF_NOT_IN_USE state has become redundant.

The only use of the label was too early for primary_if to be set
anyways.
Also move the put of primary_if further up to hold the reference only as
long as necessary, hopefully avoiding the need to re-introduce the goto
label with future code changes.

The batadv_hard_iface->mesh_iface became immutable after the global
batadv_hardif_list was removed and batadv_hard_iface only exists when it is
assigned to an mesh_iface. This member can never become NULL and thus a
check is now unnecessary.

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
With the immutability guarantee of batadv_hard_iface->mesh_iface, the check
for "changed" (or NULL) mesh_iface doesn't work anymore and is also no
longer necessary. The extra (complicated) code for the sending of OGMv2s
can therefore be removed and the original code can be used again.
This reverts commit f8ce8b8331a1bc44ad4905886a482214d428b253.

With the immutability guarantee of batadv_hard_iface->mesh_iface, the check
for "changed" (or NULL) mesh_iface is no longer necessary because a
batadv_hard_iface can no longer migrate from one batadv_mesh_iface to
another one.

batadv_tvlv_containers_contain() and batadv_tvlv_containers_process() are
using the same code to iterate through the TVLV containers. To simplify the
code, extract the shared portions of both functions.

When batadv_tp_ack_unordered() goes through the list of unacked sequence
numbers and checks for now closed gaps, it is first calculating a delta of
the sequence numbers which could be acked. Just to revert this calculation
in the next steps to the sequence number which would be ackable.
Skip the delta step and directly work with the sequence numbers.

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
Right at the point when the receiver gets the first packet with a seqno gap
(due to some packet loss/reordering), entries in the unacked list are
created. They are (besides direct seqno matches) are not combined. A lot
more then necessary entries are therefore created. Not for each gap but for
each packet.
This increases the memory consumption and management overhead. But it is
trivial to handle overlapping or adjacent sequence number ranges during the
insert. Only the handling of closed gaps by a new packets requires an extra
step after the insert.

There is no need to share the unacked list between sender and receivers.
Only receivers will ever write to and read from it. The initialization in
batadv_tp_start() was therefore never needed. After its removal, it is
enough to just store it in struct batadv_tp_receiver.

The lock used to protect the receiver from reading/writing in parallel to
ack sequence number relevant data was still called unacked_lock. But it is
no longer only about the unacked_list. Use a broader term to reflect this.

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
When batadv_tp_handle_out_of_order() searches the already existing list of
unacked packets, it can often find an entry to merge with. In this case, it
would be a waste of time and resources to allocate a batadv_tp_unacked
which is then immediately freed again.
Instead, search first through the list. Only when no mergeable entry could
be found, it is necessary to record the place to allocate+store the new
entry.
