The following commit has been merged in the master branch: commit 09748a22f4ab7b0ab5a83c432f6e18f65f18e09b Author: Matthias Schiffer mschiffer@universe-factory.net Date: Mon May 9 18:41:08 2016 +0200
batman-adv: add generic netlink family for batman-adv
debugfs is currently severely broken virtually everywhere in the kernel where files are dynamically added and removed (see http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1506.1/02196.html for some details). In addition to that, debugfs is not namespace-aware.
Instead of adding new debugfs entries, the whole infrastructure should be moved to netlink. This will fix the long standing problem of large buffers for debug tables and hard to parse text files.
