The batman-adv configuration interface was implemented solely using sysfs. This approach was condemned by non-batadv developers as "huge mistake". Instead a netlink/genl based implementation was suggested. Beside the mesh/soft-interface specific configuration, the VLANs on top of the mesh/soft-interface have configuration settings. The genl interface reflects this by allowing to get/set it using the vlan specific commands BATADV_CMD_GET_VLAN/BATADV_CMD_SET_VLAN. The set command BATADV_CMD_SET_MESH will also notify interested userspace listeners of the "config" mcast group using the BATADV_CMD_SET_VLAN command message type that settings might have been changed and what the current values are.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
