[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 2/3] batman-adv: Introduce packet type independent TVLV handler API

Instead of having one TVLV registration function for OGMs and one for unicast packets, this patch adds a new, generic tvlv handler registratiorn function, which simply uses a packet type as parameter. For now, this patch only migrates the multicast and gateway tvlv handlers to this new API, as

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 3/3] batman-adv: Evaluate and use neighborhood hash TVLV

This patch aims to reduce protocol overhead for BATMAN V by avoiding rebroadcasts of OGM2 and broadcast packets in neighborhoods where every neighbor "sees" another. This is done by parsing and storing the new information provided by the ELP specific neighborhood hash TVLV. We then use this new

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 1/3] batman-adv: Store and transmit own neighborhood hash

Adds a sha512 hash as a TVLV to an ELP packet. Hash is the "sum" of all neighbors (ordered alphabetically, concatenated, binary) a node sees on a specific interface. Furthermore, the best and worst TX metric of all these neighbors on an interface are added to the TVLV. Signed-off-by: Linus

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] Broadcast Avoidances, Neighborhood Hash

Hi, Here's the second broadcast avoidance patchset (rebased on the former one). Hopefully, those two patchsets together should be an automatic approach and replacement for the (non-upstream) no-rebroadcast flag patch and the cases it is currently used for. Documentation: *

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batman-adv: Allow selecting BATMAN V if CFG80211 is not built

With the new stub for cfg80211_get_station(), we can now build the BATMAN V protocol even with a kernel that was built without any wireless support. Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing --- compat-include/net/cfg80211.h | 24 net/batman-adv/Kconfig
