When you look into the code of the routing metric
( http://olsr.org/git/?p=oonf.git;a=blob;f=src-plugins/nhdp/ff_dat_metric/ff_dat_metric.c;h=f2f7bbf1954815e82d5a8fc6df9c9ce851a5cd41;hb=HEAD
)

you will find one function where the oonf_layer2 API is called (hint:
search for "oonf_layer2_" in the file).

This is the place where the DAT metric queries the layer2 database
about the incoming linkspeed... which could come directly from the
nl80211_listener or the dlep_router subsystem.
