The following commit has been merged in the master branch: commit 3c4f7ab60cc21e8fc65b234f3a6174fc19a93fee Author: Antonio Quartulli antonio@open-mesh.com Date: Sun Oct 13 02:50:19 2013 +0200

batman-adv: improve the TT component to support runtime flag changes

Some flags (i.e. the WIFI flag) may change after that the related client has already been announced. However it is useful to informa the rest of the network about this change.

Add a runtime-flag-switch detection mechanism and re-announce the related TT entry to advertise the new flag value.

This mechanism can be easily exploited by future flags that may need the same treatment.
