batadv_gw_node_delete(9)

✨ batadv_gw_node_delete ✨

Okay bestie, gather round, because this one is a little kernel function from the batadv_gw_node_delete(9) manual page and it is exactly what it says on the tin 🎀 It lives in the Kernel API Manual, and its whole entire job is: remove orig_node from the gateway list. That's it. That's the function. Short, sweet, iconic 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void batadv_gw_node_delete (struct batadv_priv *bat_priv , struct
       batadv_orig_node *orig_node );

Like, it returns nothing (void, so no little gift back, sorry 🫶) and it takes two things: your mesh priv and the orig node you're yeeting out of the gateway list ✨

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• bat_priv — the bat priv with all the mesh interface information. Yes, all of it. It's the main character holding the whole mesh interface's info 👑
• orig_node — the orig node which is currently in process of being removed. Not me saying "in process" — that's literally the vibe, it's mid-removal 🦋

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

Kernel file ./net/batman-adv/gateway_client.c — and honestly the whole gateway client friend group shows up here, so let's do roll call 📋:

• batadv_gw_node_release(9)
• batadv_gw_get_selected_gw_node(9)
• batadv_gw_get_selected_orig(9)
• batadv_gw_select(9)
• batadv_gw_reselect(9)
• batadv_gw_check_client_stop(9)
• batadv_gw_election(9)
• batadv_gw_check_election(9)
• batadv_gw_node_add(9)
• batadv_gw_node_get(9)
• batadv_gw_node_update(9)
• batadv_gw_node_free(9)
• batadv_gw_dump(9)
• batadv_gw_dhcp_recipient_get(9)
• batadv_gw_out_of_range(9)

Heads up bestie: this is the delete one 💀 don't confuse it with batadv_gw_node_add(9) — they are giving opposite energy, iykyk.

Okay that's the whole page, no cap 💜 Shoutout to the source ./net/batman-adv and the October 2026 date — that's the footer fam, we love them, periodt 🌈⭐
