Sven Eckelmann c6c8fea297 net: Add batman-adv meshing protocol
B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking) is a routing
protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks. The networks may be wired or
wireless. See http://www.open-mesh.org/ for more information and user space
tools.

What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/aggregated_ogms
Date: May 2010
Contact: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
Description:
Indicates whether the batman protocol messages of the
mesh <mesh_iface> shall be aggregated or not.
What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/bonding
Date: June 2010
Contact: Simon Wunderlich <siwu@hrz.tu-chemnitz.de>
Description:
Indicates whether the data traffic going through the
mesh will be sent using multiple interfaces at the
same time (if available).
What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/fragmentation
Date: October 2010
Contact: Andreas Langer <an.langer@gmx.de>
Description:
Indicates whether the data traffic going through the
mesh will be fragmented or silently discarded if the
packet size exceeds the outgoing interface MTU.
What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/gw_bandwidth
Date: October 2010
Contact: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
Description:
Defines the bandwidth which is propagated by this
node if gw_mode was set to 'server'.
What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/gw_mode
Date: October 2010
Contact: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
Description:
Defines the state of the gateway features. Can be
either 'off', 'client' or 'server'.
What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/gw_sel_class
Date: October 2010
Contact: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
Description:
Defines the selection criteria this node will use
to choose a gateway if gw_mode was set to 'client'.
What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/orig_interval
Date: May 2010
Contact: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
Description:
Defines the interval in milliseconds in which batman
sends its protocol messages.
What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/hop_penalty
Date: Oct 2010
Contact: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@web.de>
Description:
Defines the penalty which will be applied to an
originator message's tq-field on every hop.
What: /sys/class/net/<mesh_iface>/mesh/vis_mode
Date: May 2010
Contact: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
Description:
Each batman node only maintains information about its
own local neighborhood, therefore generating graphs
showing the topology of the entire mesh is not easily
feasible without having a central instance to collect
the local topologies from all nodes. This file allows
to activate the collecting (server) mode.
