I don't know the code, but I would have expected the out label to come
earlier:


        }
        if (!route_frame) { /* connect request */
                for (node = rose_node_list; node != NULL; node = node->next) {
                        if (rosecmpm(addr, &node->address, node->mask) == 0) {
                                for (i = 0; i < node->count; i++) {
                                        if (!rose_ftimer_running(node->neighbour[i])) {
                                                res = node->neighbour[i];
                                                failed = 0;
                                                goto out;
                                        }
                                        failed = 1;
                                }
                        }
                }
        }

<--------***********  I would have expected it to be right here.
        if (failed) {
                *cause      = ROSE_OUT_OF_ORDER;
                *diagnostic = 0;
        } else {
                *cause      = ROSE_NOT_OBTAINABLE;
                *diagnostic = 0;
        }

out:
        if (!route_frame) spin_unlock_bh(&rose_node_list_lock);
        return res;
