From 7e3c88660b5b90f437cf466b1805089ccb764ee3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Pedersen Date: Thu, 24 Nov 2011 17:15:21 -0800 Subject: mac80211: failed forwarded mesh frame addressing Don't write the TA until next hop is actually known, since we might need the original TA for sending a PERR. Previously we would send a PERR to ourself if path resolution for a forwarded frame failed. Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona Signed-off-by: John W.

To cut down on PREQ spam, just send a (gated) PERR in response. Also separate path discovery logic from nexthop querying. This patch means we no longer queue frames when forwarding, so kill the PERR TX stuff in discard_frame(). Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen Signed-off-by: John W.
