battle for yocto

[Kamal R. Prasad]

hello,

 can someone point me to some info on  how to plug in batctl into a
yocto build? the kernel provided by raspberry pi os already contains
batman-adv kernel module but not batctl.

thanks

You have to write an recipe. Something like 
https://github.com/jhaws1982/meta-batman - just with a more recent version. 
But I am guessing that Jonathan Haws will accept pull requests in case you 
spend the time integrating the newest version.

Kind regards,
	Sven

I was going to mention exactly the same thing Sven did.  We haven't kept those recipes up to date because we have moved away from Batman in our setupsand I haven't been aware of anyone else using them, but I will be happy to take PRs for updates!
