commit f5f98d9e8f42955316bb9398b51089b9789cad3c Author: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org Date: Sat Feb 9 14:41:05 2019 +0100

batman-adv: Add network_coding mesh genl configuration

The mesh interface can use (in an homogeneous mesh) network coding, a mechanism that aims to increase the overall network throughput by fusing multiple packets in one transmission.

The BATADV_CMD_SET_MESH/BATADV_CMD_GET_MESH commands allow to set/get the configuration of this feature using the BATADV_ATTR_NETWORK_CODING_ENABLED attribute. Setting the u8 to zero will disable this feature and setting it to something else is enabling this feature.
