🌸 NAME 🌸

batadv_mcast_mla_rtr_flags_meshif_get — bestie, this one grabs the multicast router flags straight off the node 💅

(also hiiii, this is the Kernel API Manual, welcome to the group chat ✨)

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u8 batadv_mcast_mla_rtr_flags_meshif_get (struct batadv_priv *bat_priv ,
struct net_device *bridge );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• bat_priv — the bat priv that's holding all the mesh interface information. the whole vibe-check box, basically 🫶
• bridge — the bridge interface sitting on top of the mesh_iface if there even is one. no bridge? pass NULL and keep it moving, no cap 🙈

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so literally what it does: it checks whether there are IPv4 and IPv6 multicast routers hanging out on this node. that's the whole thing. presence check. detected. ⭐

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

• BATADV_NO_FLAGS — both an IPv4 and an IPv6 multicast router is present. double slay 👑
• BATADV_MCAST_WANT_NO_RTR4 — no IPv4 multicast router present 😭
• BATADV_MCAST_WANT_NO_RTR6 — no IPv6 multicast router present 😭
• the former two OR'd — literally no multicast router present at all. it's giving empty 💀
