[B.A.T.M.A.N.] Queues in batman-adv

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] Queues in batman-adv

[Krishnathiepan Rasanayagam]

hi All,

Can any one explain me how the tcp buffers were handled in batman-adv.
or which files it handled ?
We are trying to modify the way batman-adv handles the data buffer.

Hi Krishnathiepan,

batman-adv does not have any buffer for outgoing packets.

Moreover batman-adv has no clue about the upper layer protocols,
therefore it has no knowledge about TCP or UDP.

Hi Antonio,

Im aware that batman-adv doesn't care about tcp or udp and it doesn't
have any queues either. what i want is how it handles the out going
packets more specifically how it places the Frames on net. what file
does this and what headers supports this?

cheers,
krishna

Seems you are looking for some basics ? How about peeking into my preferred 
master thesis to point people to ? 

Network coding with batman-adv (linked and hosted on open-mesh.org). Chapter 4 
goes into details how frames travel through batman-adv:
http://downloads.open-mesh.org/batman/papers/batman-adv_network_coding.pdf

Probably not 100% accurate these days (batman-adv does change quite a bit) but 
it should help you to get the picture.


Cheers,
Marek
