    batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add snooping functions for ARP messages · c384ea3e
    Antonio Quartulli 提交于
    In case of an ARP message going in or out the soft_iface, it is intercepted and
    a special action is performed. In particular the DHT helper functions previously
    implemented are used to store all the ARP entries belonging to the network in
    order to provide a fast and unicast lookup instead of the classic broadcast
    flooding mechanism.
    Each node stores the entries it is responsible for (following the DHT rules) in
    its soft_iface ARP table. This makes it possible to reuse the kernel data
    structures and functions for ARP management.
