💅 batadv_tt_global_client_is_roaming — batman-adv Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual 🫶 this one's a baby function but she's important, and she lives right in the middle of the translation-table saga in batman-adv. strap in.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

batadv_tt_global_client_is_roaming — check if a client is marked as roaming 👀✨

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool batadv_tt_global_client_is_roaming (struct batadv_priv *bat_priv ,
u8 *addr , unsigned short vid );

that's the whole signature, no cap. returns a bool, takes three things, slay 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• bat_priv — the bat priv with all the mesh interface information 💖 this is the big one, she's got everything about your mesh in there.
• addr — the mac address of the client to check 🐝 like, which client are we asking about bestie.
• vid — VLAN identifier 🌈 yep, the VLAN matters here too.

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

true if we know that the client has moved from its old originator to another one 🔥

okay this part is important, so listen up: this entry is still kept for consistency purposes and will be deleted later — either by a DEL or because of timeout 💀 so like… it's true right now, but don't get attached to it, she's not sticking around forever 🙈
