I would suggest the following modification of commit messages and
code. Let me know whether this is fine.
---------
I would suggest the following edition to the commit message:
Instead of stopping path discovery when a path is established, continue the
attempts to find alternative paths until we hit the dot11MeshHWMPmaxPREQretries
limit. However, this is not a standard behavior and may easily
increase the number of
broadcast PREQ frame in your network. So this feature is turned off by default.
and the remaining are removed due to misleading explanation.
Then, in the mesh_path_timer, I think that only the following is needed:
- if (mpath->flags & MESH_PATH_RESOLVED ||
- (!(mpath->flags & MESH_PATH_RESOLVING))) {
+ if (!multiple_discoveries &&
+ (mpath->flags & MESH_PATH_RESOLVED ||
+ (!(mpath->flags & MESH_PATH_RESOLVING)))) {
