ENUM BATADV_DHCP_RECIPIENT(9)

✨ enum batadv_dhcp_recipient(9) ✨

okay so this is from the Kernel API Manual bestie, and it's literally just a lil enum that answers one (1) question: where is this DHCP packet actually going? that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

---

💖 NAME 💖

enum batadv_dhcp_recipient — dhcp destination 🎯

like, the destination. of a dhcp thing. we stay on topic here.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

enum batadv_dhcp_recipient {
    BATADV_DHCP_NO ,
    BATADV_DHCP_TO_SERVER ,
    BATADV_DHCP_TO_CLIENT

};

three constants, no cap, and they are all right here ⬇️

---

🎀 Constants 🎀

• BATADV_DHCP_NO — nope, not a dhcp message at all. this packet said "not my department" and left 🙈
• BATADV_DHCP_TO_SERVER — it is a dhcp message, and it's headed to a server. server bound, bestie 🖥️✨
• BATADV_DHCP_TO_CLIENT — also a dhcp message, but this one's headed to a client. client bound, slay 🫶

mwah, that's the whole page! source is ./net/batman-adv and it's dated October 2026 — so like, future-core of the kernel docs 😭🌸 bye bestie, go read your DHCP packets responsibly 👑✨
