NAME

struct_mpath_info - mesh path information

SYNOPSIS

struct mpath_info {
  u32 filled;
  u32 frame_qlen;
  u32 sn;
  u32 metric;
  u32 exptime;
  u32 discovery_timeout;
  u8 discovery_retries;
  u8 flags;
  int generation;
};

MEMBERS

filled

: bitfield of flags from enum mpath_info_flags

frame_qlen

: number of queued frames for this destination

: target sequence number

metric

: metric (cost) of this mesh path

exptime

: expiration time for the mesh path from now, in msecs

discovery_timeout

: total mesh path discovery timeout, in msecs

discovery_retries

: mesh path discovery retries

flags

: mesh path flags

generation

: generation number for nl80211 dumps. This number should increase every time the list of mesh paths changes, i.e. when a station is added or removed, so that userspace can tell whether it got a consistent snapshot.

DESCRIPTION

Mesh path information filled by driver for get_mpath and dump_mpath.
