+	  This option enables the B.A.T.M.A.N. V protocol, the successor
+	  of the currently used B.A.T.M.A.N. IV protocol. The main
+	  changes include splitting of the OGM protocol into a neighbor
+	  discovery protocol (Echo Location Protocol, ELP) and a new OGM
+	  Protocol OGMv2 for flooding protocol information through the
+	  network, as well as a throughput based metric.
+	  B.A.T.M.A.N. V is currently considered experimental and not
+	  compatible to B.A.T.M.A.N. IV networks.

+config BATMAN_ADV_BLA
+	bool "Bridge Loop Avoidance"
 	depends on PACKAGE_kmod-batman-adv
+	select PACKAGE_kmod-lib-crc16
 	default y
+	help
+	  This option enables BLA (Bridge Loop Avoidance), a mechanism
+	  to avoid Ethernet frames looping when mesh nodes are connected
+	  to both the same LAN and the same mesh. If you will never use
+	  more than one mesh node in the same LAN, you can safely remove
+	  this feature and save some space.

+config BATMAN_ADV_DAT

 	depends on PACKAGE_kmod-batman-adv
 	default y
+	help
+	  This option enables DAT (Distributed ARP Table), a DHT based
+	  mechanism that increases ARP reliability on sparse wireless
+	  mesh networks. If you think that your network does not need
+	  this option you can safely remove it and save some space.
+
+config BATMAN_ADV_NC
+	bool "Network Coding"
+	depends on PACKAGE_kmod-batman-adv
+	help
+	  This option enables network coding, a mechanism that aims to
+	  increase the overall network throughput by fusing multiple
+	  packets in one transmission.
+	  Note that interfaces controlled by batman-adv must be manually
+	  configured to have promiscuous mode enabled in order to make
+	  network coding work.
+	  If you think that your network does not need this feature you
+	  can safely disable it and save some space.

+config BATMAN_ADV_MCAST

-	default n
+	help
+	  This is an option for use by developers; most people should
+	  say N here. This enables compilation of support for
+	  outputting debugging information to the debugfs log or tracing
+	  buffer. The output is controlled via the batadv netdev specific
+	  log_level setting.
