 14	help
 15	  B.A.T.M.A.N. (better approach to mobile ad-hoc networking) is
 16	  a routing protocol for multi-hop ad-hoc mesh networks. The
 17	  networks may be wired or wireless. See
 18	  https://www.open-mesh.org/ for more information and user space
 19	  tools.

 23	depends on BATMAN_ADV && !(CFG80211=m && BATMAN_ADV=y)
 24	default y
 25	help
 26	  This option enables the B.A.T.M.A.N. V protocol, the successor
 27	  of the currently used B.A.T.M.A.N. IV protocol. The main
 28	  changes include splitting of the OGM protocol into a neighbor
 29	  discovery protocol (Echo Location Protocol, ELP) and a new OGM
 30	  Protocol OGMv2 for flooding protocol information through the
 31	  network, as well as a throughput based metric.
 32	  B.A.T.M.A.N. V is currently considered experimental and not
 33	  compatible to B.A.T.M.A.N. IV networks.

 35config BATMAN_ADV_BLA
 36	bool "Bridge Loop Avoidance"
 37	depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET
 38	select CRC16
 39	default y
 40	help
 41	  This option enables BLA (Bridge Loop Avoidance), a mechanism
 42	  to avoid Ethernet frames looping when mesh nodes are connected
 43	  to both the same LAN and the same mesh. If you will never use
 44	  more than one mesh node in the same LAN, you can safely remove
 45	  this feature and save some space.
 46
 47config BATMAN_ADV_DAT
 48	bool "Distributed ARP Table"
 49	depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET
 50	default y
 51	help
 52	  This option enables DAT (Distributed ARP Table), a DHT based
 53	  mechanism that increases ARP reliability on sparse wireless
 54	  mesh networks. If you think that your network does not need
 55	  this option you can safely remove it and save some space.
 56
 57config BATMAN_ADV_NC
 58	bool "Network Coding"
 59	depends on BATMAN_ADV
 60	help
 61	  This option enables network coding, a mechanism that aims to
 62	  increase the overall network throughput by fusing multiple
 63	  packets in one transmission.
 64	  Note that interfaces controlled by batman-adv must be manually
 65	  configured to have promiscuous mode enabled in order to make
 66	  network coding work.
 67	  If you think that your network does not need this feature you
 68	  can safely disable it and save some space.
 69
 70config BATMAN_ADV_MCAST
 71	bool "Multicast optimisation"
 72	depends on BATMAN_ADV && INET && !(BRIDGE=m && BATMAN_ADV=y)
 73	default y
 74	help
 75	  This option enables the multicast optimisation which aims to
 76	  reduce the air overhead while improving the reliability of
 77	  multicast messages.
 78
 79config BATMAN_ADV_DEBUGFS
 80	bool "batman-adv debugfs entries"
 81	depends on BATMAN_ADV
 82	depends on DEBUG_FS
 83	help
 84	  Enable this to export routing related debug tables via debugfs.
 85	  The information for each soft-interface and used hard-interface can be
 86	  found under batman_adv/
 87
 88	  If unsure, say N.
 89
 90config BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG
 91	bool "B.A.T.M.A.N. debugging"
 92	depends on BATMAN_ADV
 93	help
 94	  This is an option for use by developers; most people should
 95	  say N here. This enables compilation of support for
 96	  outputting debugging information to the debugfs log or tracing
 97	  buffer. The output is controlled via the batadv netdev specific
 98	  log_level setting.
 99
100config BATMAN_ADV_SYSFS
101	bool "batman-adv sysfs entries"
102	depends on BATMAN_ADV
103	default y
104	help
105	  Say Y here if you want to enable batman-adv device configuration and
106	  status interface through sysfs attributes. It is replaced by the
107	  batadv generic netlink family but still used by various userspace
108	  tools and scripts.
109
110	  If unsure, say Y.
111
112config BATMAN_ADV_TRACING
113	bool "B.A.T.M.A.N. tracing support"
114	depends on BATMAN_ADV
115	depends on EVENT_TRACING
116	help
117	  This is an option for use by developers; most people should
118	  say N here. Select this option to gather traces like the debug
119	  messages using the generic tracing infrastructure of the kernel.
120	  BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG must also be selected to get trace events for
121	  batadv_dbg.
