πŸ’– batadv_mcast_mla_tt_add(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for batadv_mcast_mla_tt_add β€” yes that's a whole mouthful, no i will not be pronouncing it out loud, but it's honestly iconic and you're gonna get it. this is the kernel-API side of the fam, so no shell prompt here, just vibes and structs πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

batadv_mcast_mla_tt_add β€” add multicast listener announcements πŸ’…

like, that's literally the whole job. adding. announcements. to things. slay.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void batadv_mcast_mla_tt_add (struct batadv_priv *bat_priv , struct
hlist_head *mcast_list );

returns void, so it gives you nothing back β€” it's giving "i already did the work, don't ask me for a receipt" energy 😌


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • bat_priv β€” the bat priv with all the mesh interface information. like, this is the main-character struct right here, it's holding the whole mesh's whole situation πŸ‘‘
  • mcast_list β€” a list of addresses which are going to get added. that's it, that's the list, they're getting added, no cap πŸ“‹

🫢 DESCRIPTION 🫢

so what actually happens? it adds multicast listener announcements from the given mcast_list to the translation table β€” but only if they have not been added yet. the way that "if they have not been added yet" is doing so much heavy lifting in that sentence 😭 like, no duplicates, we're not out here adding the same thing twice, we're respectful in this house.

periodt. that's the function.


πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

the kernel file: ./net/batman-adv/multicast.c β€” and honestly the whole extended friend group is listed below, it's a lot of siblings, i know, but every single one gets a shoutout because we don't do favorites here 🧚

okay real talk: that's a long list and i need you to know i typed every single one on purpose πŸ’€ no skimming, bestie, this is the whole fam and they all matter.

🌈 and that's the page!! sourced from ./net/batman-adv, stamped October 2026, living under the Kernel API Manual banner β€” go forth and add those announcements (only the ones that haven't been added yet, obviously) πŸŽ€βœ¨πŸ’–
