    batman-adv: OGMv2 - add basic infrastructure · 0da00359

    This is the initial implementation of the new OGM protocol
    (version 2). It has been designed to work on top of the
    newly added ELP.
    
    In the previous version the OGM protocol was used to both
    measure link qualities and flood the network with the metric
    information. In this version the protocol is in charge of
    the latter task only, leaving the former to ELP.
    
    This means being able to decouple the interval used by the
    neighbor discovery from the OGM broadcasting, which revealed
    to be costly in dense networks and needed to be relaxed so
    leading to a less responsive routing protocol.
