[RFC v2 10/19] batman-adv: Add fragmentation mesh genl configuration

From: Sven Eckelmann <hidden>
Date: 2018-11-23 16:13:50
Also in: batman
Subsystem: batman advanced, the rest · Maintainers: Marek Lindner, Simon Wunderlich, Antonio Quartulli, Sven Eckelmann, Linus Torvalds

The mesh interface can fragment unicast packets when the packet size
exceeds the outgoing slave/hard-interface MTU.

The BATADV_CMD_SET_MESH/BATADV_CMD_GET_MESH commands allow to set/get the
configuration of this feature using the BATADV_ATTR_FRAGMENTATION
attribute. Setting the u8 to zero will disable this feature and setting it
to something else is enabling this feature.
