ENUM BATADV_NETLINK_MULTICAST_GROUPS(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay so this is the kernel API manual page for enum batadv_netlink_multicast_groups(9) — yes the whole title got squished into the header, that's just how the kernel docs do it, we don't ask questions 💅 — and it's literally just a list of the batman-adv generic netlink multicast groups. tiny page, huge vibe check.

✨ NAME ✨

enum batadv_netlink_multicast_groups — the batman-adv generic netlink multicast groups, bestie. that's it. that's the whole name section 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the enum in all its glory, no cap, copied exactly:

enum batadv_netlink_multicast_groups {
    BATADV_NL_MCGRP_CONFIG ,
    BATADV_NL_MCGRP_TPMETER

};

💖 Constants 💖

every member gets its own moment, as it should 👑

  • BATADV_NL_MCGRP_CONFIG — the configuration change notification group. whenever config stuff shifts, this is the group that hears about it. it's giving "reply-all but make it netlink" ✨
  • BATADV_NL_MCGRP_TPMETER — the throughput meter result notification group. results from the throughput meter land here. iconic, honestly 🌈

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

the full squad, no member left behind — first off, the source file lives at ./net/batman-adv/netlink.c, and then you've got the whole friend group:

like, genuinely a whole group chat in there 😭 go read them, ily 🫶

ngl this one's short and sweet — two constants, one file path, a gazillion SEE ALSOs. read it, screenshot it, whatever, just don't @ me about the trailing comma before };, that's the kernel's business not mine 💀

that's the whole page, bestie 💜 it comes from ./net/batman-adv (the source) and was dated October 2026 (the version/date line), and yes the footer also said enum batadv_...icast_groups(9) because the header repeats down there like a little echo 🎀 periodt, go read the code, mwah 🌸
