[PATCH v2] Assign next hop address to pending mesh frames once the path is resolved.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Regression.  Frames transmitted when a mesh path was wating to be resolved were
being transmitted with an invalid Receiver Address.

[Changes since v1]

Suggested by Johannes:
 - Improved frame_queue traversal
 - Narower RCU scope
