  Hi David,

this is our second feature pull request for batman-adv in this round, with
our joint work on netlink and netns support. There will be at least one more
pull request coming later.

Please pull or let me know of any problem!

Thank you,

  batman-adv: Indicate netlink socket can be used with netns. (2016-08-09 07:54:43 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
This feature patchset is all about adding netlink support, which should
supersede our debugfs configuration interface in the long run. It is
especially necessary when batman-adv should be used in different
namespaces, since debugfs can not differentiate between those.

More specifically, the following changes are included:

 - Two fixes for namespace handling by Andrew Lunn, checking also the
   namespaces for parent interfaces, and supress debugfs entries
   for non-default netns

 - Implement various netlink commands for the new interface, by
   Matthias Schiffer, Andrew Lunn, Sven Eckelmann and Simon Wunderlich
   (13 patches):
    * routing algorithm list
    * hardif list
    * translation tables (local and global)
    * TTVN for the translation tables
    * originator and neighbor tables for B.A.T.M.A.N. IV
      and B.A.T.M.A.N. V
    * gateway dump functionality for B.A.T.M.A.N. IV
      and B.A.T.M.A.N. V
    * Bridge Loop Avoidance claims, and corresponding BLA group
    * Bridge Loop Avoidance backbone tables

 - Finally, mark batman-adv as netns compatible, by Andrew Lunn (1 patch)

      batman-adv: Handle parent interfaces in a different netns
      batman-adv: Suppress debugfs entries for netns's
      batman-adv: add B.A.T.M.A.N. IV bat_gw_dump implementations
      batman-adv: add B.A.T.M.A.N. Dump BLA claims via netlink
      batman-adv: Indicate netlink socket can be used with netns.
