Hi,

we had decided that different files must move from sysfs to debugfs in rece=
nt=20
discussion with gregkh. But their was also the problem that we currently us=
e=20
/dev/batman-adv to send special batman-adv "icmp" packets to the mesh. This=
=20
file is maybe a problem when we want to support different batX interfaces o=
n a=20
single machine.

So we have the problem that we want to move different files to debugfs and =
get=20
support for it in batctl. It seemed to be easier (better readable) for me t=
o=20
first start to get a single file to debugfs and then build on top of the=20
created infrastructure in batctl/batman-adv-kernelland to move more files. =
My=20
choice was /dev/batman-adv as we had some open question how good it works w=
ith=20
debugfs.

Unfortunately I am not able to continue it today, but don't want to stop ot=
her=20
people working on similar things. I will attach v0 (aka works for me, but=20
maybe not perfect/good enough) versions of these patches to support them.=20
Please feel free to discuss the patches.

Best regards,
	Sven
