batman-adv: throughput meter implementation
The throughput meter module is a simple, kernel-space replacement for throughtput measurements tool like iperf and netperf. It is intended to approximate TCP behaviour. It is invoked through batctl: the protocol is connection oriented, with cumulative acknowledgment and a dynamic-size sliding window. The test *can* be interrupted by batctl. A receiver side timeout avoids unlimited waitings for sender packets: after one second of inactivity, the receiver abort the ongoing test. Based on a prototype from Edo Monticelli <montik@autistici.org> Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio.quartulli@open-mesh.com> Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann <sven.eckelmann@open-mesh.com> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <mareklindner@neomailbox.ch> Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de>
