The current consensus seems to be that a more iw-like interface is prefered. vlan settings ============= The requirement to have a VLAN master device on top of the batadv mesh interface is artificially limiting the capabilities of batctl. Not all master devices in linux which register a VLAN are from type "vlan" and are only registering a single VLAN. For example VLAN aware bridges can create multiple VLANs. These require that the VLAN is identified using the VID and not the vlan device. It is now possible to specify the vlan using: $ batctl vlan bat0.8 ap_isolation enable $ batctl meshif bat0 vid 8 ap_isolation enable hardif settings =============== The infrastructure for the new vlan/vid prefix of commands can now be used to introduce another prefix: "hardif". B.A.T.M.A.N. V introduced two additional settings which are hard (slave) interface specific. These can can finally be implemented in batctl. This will allow to change/read these settings when sysfs support is not enabled in the kernel. $ batctl hardif eth0 throughput_override 15mbit $ batctl hardif eth0 elp_interval Changes ======= v2 -- * replaced (while still being compatible) -m option with "meshif"/"dev" prefix * added alternative "slave" for "hardif" prefix * automatically detect meshif for "hardif"/"slave" * introduced enum selector_prefix to make code to select correct subcommands/code paths better readable * add helper to automatically guess the type of netdev to allow omission of meshif/slave/vlan/... in some situations v1 -- * initial version [1] https://www.open-mesh.org/issues/373 Kind regards, Sven Sven Eckelmann (6): batctl: Make vlan setting explicit batctl: Integrate hardif setting framework batctl: Add elp_interval setting command batctl: Add throughput_override setting command batctl: Replace '-m meshif' option with selector prefix batctl: Allow to omit explicit prefix name Makefile | 2 + README.rst | 33 +++++ aggregation.c | 2 +- ap_isolation.c | 15 ++- bonding.c | 2 +- bridge_loop_avoidance.c | 2 +- distributed_arp_table.c | 2 +- elp_interval.c | 111 ++++++++++++++++ fragmentation.c | 2 +- functions.c | 119 +++++++++++++++--- functions.h | 8 +- gw_mode.c | 2 +- hop_penalty.c | 2 +- interface.c | 2 +- isolation_mark.c | 2 +- loglevel.c | 2 +- main.c | 273 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- main.h | 23 +++- man/batctl.8 | 60 +++++---- multicast_fanout.c | 2 +- multicast_forceflood.c | 2 +- multicast_mode.c | 2 +- network_coding.c | 2 +- orig_interval.c | 2 +- ping.c | 2 +- statistics.c | 2 +- sys.c | 73 +++++++++-- sys.h | 5 +- throughput_override.c | 113 +++++++++++++++++ throughputmeter.c | 2 +- traceroute.c | 2 +- translate.c | 2 +- 32 files changed, 772 insertions(+), 103 deletions(-) create mode 100644 elp_interval.c create mode 100644 throughput_override.c -- 2.20.1
