[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 0/6] CATWOMAN: Network coding in batman-adv

I hereby bring you network coding in batman-adv. (Changed accoring to Antonios partlial review). This allows a relay to send two packets (to two destinations) in a single transmission. Tests[1] have shown an increase in throughput up to 1.6 under the right circumstances. For this to work, you will need to compile batman-adv with CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_NC=y and a wireless interface with working promiscuous mode. The rest is taken care of by batman-adv and the following patches. [1] http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/open-mesh/wiki/2011-08-18-network-coding-… Martin Hundebøll (6): batman-adv: Add the initial code for network coding. batman-adv: Detect coding nodes and remove these after timeout batman-adv: Buffer unicast packets before forward. batman-adv: Code and transmit packets if possible. batman-adv: Save overheard and tx packets for decoding. batman-adv: Receive coded packets and decode them.
