Description

Currently batctl neighbors shows interface, mac and last-seen. It would be helpful if I could see the TQ towards the neighbor as well. This would reduce the need to grep the originators list for the chosen path.

This is currently a problem. The TQ (unlike the throughput from B.A.T.M.A.N. V) is a per batadv_neigh_ifinfo and not a per batadv_hardif_neigh_node. And the neighbor table dump prints the info from batadv_hardif_neigh_node and not batadv_neigh_ifinfo.

Getting the TQ for a hardif_neigh_node would require to:

  • traverse all batadv_neigh_nodes to find the correct originator address of the neighbor
  • traverse the batadv_neigh_node.ifinfo_list to find the correct interface

And I most likely missed something regarding the filtering of batadv_neigh_node in the first step. The splitted concept between originator and neighboring address was introduced with ELP - something which is not used by B.A.T.M.A.N. IV

Due to this problem, it seems to be more efficient to handle this mapping in userspace (over all entries) instead of doing it in the kernel and start a search for each entry.

Here is an example implementation in python3 (with python3-pyroute2):

Martin,

Sven's suggestion was probably meant for you. This ticket has been left unanswered for a while. Any objection to closing it ?

Thanks,
Marek
