ENUM BATADV_HARD_IF_BCAST(9)

✨ NAME ✨

enum batadv_hard_if_bcast — the broadcast-avoidance options, bestie 💅 (this one lives in the Kernel API Manual, so you already know it's kernel-business)

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

enum batadv_hard_if_bcast {
    BATADV_HARDIF_BCAST_OK ,
    BATADV_HARDIF_BCAST_NORECIPIENT ,
    BATADV_HARDIF_BCAST_DUPFWD ,
    BATADV_HARDIF_BCAST_DUPORIG

};

okay so that's the whole enum, all four members, no cap — literally just vibes about whether a broadcast should actually go out on a given hard interface or not 🫶

---

🎀 Constants 🎀

• BATADV_HARDIF_BCAST_OK — bestie go ahead, do the broadcast on the according hard interface 💖 it's giving green light, main character energy, send it.
• BATADV_HARDIF_BCAST_NORECIPIENT — broadcast not needed, because there's literally no recipient 😭 why are we yelling into the void, nobody's there.
• BATADV_HARDIF_BCAST_DUPFWD — there is just the neighbor we got it from 🙈 so yeah, forwarding it back would be… a choice.
• BATADV_HARDIF_BCAST_DUPORIG — there is just the originator 👑 and only the originator. that's the whole guest list.
