I'd like to propose the following changes for net-next/linux-3.5.

The first 8 patches introduce a new feature called D.A.T. (Distributed ARP
Table) which is the resulting implementation of Antonio Quartulli's GSOC 2011
Project[0]. This feature aims to improve reliability of ARP resolutions in
sparse wireless mesh networks by creating either a local and a
network-wide-distributed ARP cache. Major details can be found on its
wikipage[1].
It is an optional feature and it is possible to choose whether to compile it
or not by using the proper Kconfig option (=n by default). We are evaluating the
possibility of introducing a runtime switch to turn the behaviour on an off
without recompiling the module (like for the bridge loop avoidance).

Patch 1 also introduces a new packet type, but backward compatibility is
preserved.
Patch 9 fixes a bug in the "gw propagation" feature introduced so far.
Patch 11 and 12 are yet other improvements for the new
routing-protocol-API.

The others are minor fixes and cleanups.

Thank you very much,
	Antonio

  batman-adv: split neigh_new function into generic and batman iv specific parts (2012-04-24 10:11:31 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Included changes:

* a new feature has been introduced: D.A.T. (Distributed ARP Table). It is a
  mechanism based on DHT theory that creates a distributed (mesh network wide)
  ARP cache in order to speed up ARP resolutions in sparse wireless mesh
  networks.
* in order to satisfy DAT requirements a new unicast packet type, namely
  UNICAST_4ADDR, has been introduced. Backward compatibility has been kept: not
  updated nodes will simply drop the packet and ignore DAT mechanism.
* minor fixes and cleanups
* minor routing protocol API cleanups

----------------------------------------------------------------
Antonio Quartulli (9):
      batman-adv: add UNICAST_4ADDR packet type
      batman-adv: add a new log level for DAT debugging
      batman-adv: add biggest_unsigned_int(x) macro
      batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - create DHT helper functions
      batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add ARP parsing functions
      batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add snooping functions for ARP messages
      batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - increase default soft_iface ARP table timeout
      batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add compile option
      batman-adv: fix wrong dhcp option list browsing

Marek Lindner (6):
      batman-adv: introduce is_single_hop_neigh variable to increase readability
      batman-adv: introduce packet type handler array for incoming packets
      batman-adv: register batman ogm receive function during protocol init
      batman-adv: rename last_valid to last_seen
      batman-adv: replace HZ calculations with jiffies_to_msecs()

Hello David,

this is the new version of my last pull request (issued on 2012-04-25).
This patchset is intended for net-next/linux-3.5.

Since last series I only removed the biggest_unsigned_int() macro.

Let me know if there is any other problem.

Thank you,
	Antonio
