Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.
Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.
netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.
netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.
Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().
This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.
If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.
Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.
Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().
netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().
And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

Looking at current situation of memory management in 6lowpan receive
function I detected some invalid handling. After calling
lowpan_invoke_rx_handlers we will do a kfree_skb and then NET_RX_DROP on
error handling. We don't do this before, also on
skb_share_check/skb_unshare which might manipulate the reference
counters.
After running some 'grep -r "dev_add_pack" net/' to look how others
packet-layer receive callbacks works I detected that every subsystem do
a kfree_skb, then NET_RX_DROP without calling skb functions which
might manipulate the skb reference counters. This is the reason why we
should do the same here like all others subsystems. I didn't find any
documentation how the packet-layer receive callbacks handle NET_RX_DROP
return values either.
This patch will add a kfree_skb, then NET_RX_DROP handling for the
"trivial checks", in case of skb_share_check/skb_unshare the kfree_skb
call will be done inside these functions.

before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and

This patch cleanups needed_headroom, needed_tailroom and hard_header_len
fields for wpan and lowpan interfaces.
For wpan interfaces the worst case mac header len should be part of
needed_headroom, currently this is set as hard_header_len, but
hard_header_len should be set to the minimum header length which xmit
call assumes and this is the minimum frame length of 802.15.4.
The hard_header_len value will check inside send callbacl of AF_PACKET
raw sockets.
For lowpan interfaces, if fragmentation isn't needed the skb will
call dev_hard_header for 802154 layer and queue it afterwards. This
happens without new skb allocation, so we need the same headroom and
tailroom lengths like 802154 inside 802154 6lowpan layer. At least we
assume as minimum header length an ipv6 header size.

The current header_ops callback structure of net device are used mostly
from 802.15.4 upper-layers. Because this callback structure is a very
generic one, which is also used by e.g. DGRAM AF_PACKET sockets, we
can't make this callback structure 802.15.4 specific which is currently
is.
I saw the smallest "constraint" for calling this callback with
dev_hard_header/dev_parse_header by AF_PACKET which assign a 8 byte
array for address void pointers. Currently 802.15.4 specific protocols
like af802154 and 6LoWPAN will assign the "struct ieee802154_addr" as
these parameters which is greater than 8 bytes. The current callback
implementation for header_ops.create assumes always a complete
"struct ieee802154_addr" which AF_PACKET can't never handled and is
greater than 8 bytes.
For that reason we introduce now a "generic" create/parse header_ops
callback which allows handling with intra-pan extended addresses only.
This allows a small use-case with AF_PACKET to send "somehow" a valid
dataframe over DGRAM.
To keeping the current dev_hard_header behaviour we introduce a similar
callback structure "wpan_dev_header_ops" which contains 802.15.4 specific
upper-layer header creation functionality, which can be called by
wpan_dev_hard_header.

don't know if the ack request bit should set. This is currently used for
stacks like IEEE 802.15.4 6LoWPAN.

We currently supports multiple lowpan interfaces per wpan interface. I
never saw any use case into such functionality. We drop this feature now
because it's much easier do deal with address changes inside the under
laying wpan interface.
This patch removes the multiple lowpan interface and adds a lowpan_dev
netdev pointer into the wpan_dev, if this pointer isn't null the wpan
interface belongs to the assigned lowpan interface.

Followup patch will call it after inet_frag_queue was freed, so q->net
doesn't work anymore (but netf = q->net; free(q); mem_limit(netf) would).

This patch sets the acknowledge request bit inside the 802.15.4 mac
header when frame retries is 0 or above. The other frame retries value
which is -1 indicates that the transmitter doesn't care about an
acknowledge frame which will be ignored after transmitting if the node
sends anyway an ack frame after receiving. This is currently unnecessary
traffic if the max frame retries parameter is -1.

This patch removes the mib lock. The new locking mechanism is to protect
the mib values with the rtnl lock. Note that this isn't always necessary
if we have an interface up the most mib values are readonly (e.g.
address settings). With this behaviour we can remove locking in
hotpath like frame parsing completely. It depends on context if we need
to hold the rtnl lock or not, this makes the callbacks of
ieee802154_mlme_ops unnecessary because these callbacks hols always the
locks.

This patch will use atomic operations for sequence number incrementation
while MAC header generation. Upper layers like af_802154 or 6LoWPAN
could call this function in a parallel context while generating 802.15.4
MAC header before queuing into wpan interfaces transmit queue.

Currently there exists two interface types with ARPHRD_IEEE802154. These
are the 802.15.4 interfaces and 802.15.4 6LoWPAN interfaces. This is
more a bug because some userspace applications checks on this value like
wireshark. This occurs that wireshark will always try to parse a lowpan
interface as 802.15.4 frames. With ARPHRD_6LOWPAN wireshark will parse
it as IPv6 frames which is correct.
Much applications checks on this value to readout the EUI64 mac address
which should be the same for ARPHRD_6LOWPAN. BTLE 6LoWPAN and ieee802154
6LoWPAN will share now the same ARPHRD.

6LoWPAN currently doesn't supports x-netns and works only in init_net.
With this patch, we ensure that:
- the wpan interface cannot be moved to another netns;
- the 6lowpan interface cannot be moved to another netns;
- the wpan interface is in the same netns than the 6lowpan interface;
- the 6lowpan interface is in init_net.

Since commit ea81ac2e70 ("ieee802154:
create 6lowpan sub-directory") we have a subdirectory for the ieee802154
6lowpan implementation. This commit also moves the Kconfig entry inside
of net/ieee802154/6lowpan/ and forgot to rename the Makefile entry from
obj-$(CONFIG_IEEE802154_6LOWPAN) to obj-y and handle the
obj-$(CONFIG_IEEE802154_6LOWPAN) inside the created 6lowpan directory.
This will occur that the ieee802154_6lowpan can't be build.

This patch renames the internal header for af802154. This naming
convention is like ieee802154_i.h in mac802154 and avoids naming
confusing with the global af802154 header. Furthermore this header
contains more ieee802154 specific definitions.
