As mentioned earlier, the netlink config restructuring in batctl will be splitted in multiple steps. The first step was already merged and the patch series for the netlink interface in batman-adv was just posted.
The batman-adv weren't directly rejected by Jiro and thus I've started to convert all settings to netlink while still allowing sysfs as fallback.
v5: ===
* dropped attribute BATADV_ATTR_MULTICAST_MODE for multicast_mode and replaced it with (basically inversed) BATADV_ATTR_MULTICAST_FORCEFLOOD_ENABLED * Add _ENABLED Postfix for boolean attributes:
- BATADV_ATTR_AGGREGATED_OGMS_ENABLED - BATADV_ATTR_AP_ISOLATION_ENABLED - BATADV_ATTR_BONDING_ENABLED - BATADV_ATTR_BRIDGE_LOOP_AVOIDANCE_ENABLED - BATADV_ATTR_DISTRIBUTED_ARP_TABLE_ENABLED - BATADV_ATTR_FRAGMENTATION_ENABLED - BATADV_ATTR_NETWORK_CODING_ENABLED
v4: ===
* last patch (which adds the netlink implementation of the settings commands) was splitted in 16 separate patches * Cc the (most likely) responsible developers for each setting to more directly ask them for feedback
v3: ===
* fix kernel-doc in batman_adv.h * add three patches to use the netlink interface with the already existing setting commands
v2: ===
* drop of generic config command * reimplementation of the event command
Kind regards, Sven
