> Hello list, > > since compat-wireless-2010-03-03 (and the previous) mesh mode does not work for me anymore. > The problem is, that peering links do not establish between mesh points. The peering status changes between LISTEN, OPN_SNT and HOLDING, but does not reach ESTAB. > Using patched wireshark I can see lots of malformed packets in response to peer link management frames. > I upgraded all my nodes to the same version. But the problem is the same with just one node on the newer version. > > I am using latest OpenWrt with ye olde compat-wireless-2010-03-03 (no new version included until now). Driver is ath9k, hardware is Netgear WNDR3700. > > The mesh configuration should be fine, sine with compat-wireless-2010-02-02 everything was ok. > > I could not try this with standard hardware, so at first it would be interesting, if this is a general problem or just OpenWrt specific. > > > Regards > > Marco Realizing there is a debug output switch for peer link management, I enabled it and recorded following outputs: (using two PHYs and mesh interfaces on each node) [ 41.900000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 42.000000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 5 [ 42.060000] Mesh plink: starting establishment with xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX [ 42.100000] Mesh plink: starting establishment with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx [ 42.160000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 1 [ 42.160000] Mesh plink for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX (retry, timeout): 0 100 [ 42.200000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 42.200000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 0 100 [ 42.350000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 1 [ 42.350000] Mesh plink for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX (retry, timeout): 1 193 [ 42.390000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 42.390000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 1 197 [ 42.630000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 1 [ 42.630000] Mesh plink for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX (retry, timeout): 2 282 [ 42.720000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 42.720000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 2 338 [ 43.090000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 1 [ 43.120000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 43.190000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 5 [ 43.220000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 5 [ 44.150000] Mesh plink: starting establishment with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx [ 44.250000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 44.250000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 0 100 [ 44.380000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 44.380000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 1 136 [ 44.550000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 44.550000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 2 172 [ 44.800000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 44.900000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 5 [ 45.130000] Mesh plink: starting establishment with xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX [ 45.170000] Mesh plink: starting establishment with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx [ 45.230000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 1 [ 45.230000] Mesh plink for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX (retry, timeout): 0 100 [ 45.270000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 45.270000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 0 100 [ 45.370000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 45.370000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 1 107 [ 45.380000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 1 [ 45.380000] Mesh plink for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX (retry, timeout): 1 151 [ 45.480000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 45.480000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 2 111 [ 45.590000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 45.670000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 1 [ 45.670000] Mesh plink for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX (retry, timeout): 2 298 [ 45.690000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 5 [ 46.060000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 1 [ 46.160000] Mesh plink timer for xX:xx:xX:xX:xX:xX fired on state 5 [ 46.190000] Mesh plink: starting establishment with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx [ 46.290000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 46.290000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 0 100 [ 46.460000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 46.460000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 1 178 [ 46.730000] Mesh plink timer for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx fired on state 1 [ 46.730000] Mesh plink for xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (retry, timeout): 2 270 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
