From 1e5cc266dbc401d11aefb966ad35e651c2f67414 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Antonio Quartulli Date: Sun, 26 Feb 2012 15:39:42 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: skip the window protection test when the originator has no neighbours When we receive an OGM from from a node for the first time, the last_real_seqno field of the orig_node structure has not been initialised yet. The value of this field is used to compute the current ogm-seqno window and therefore the protection mechanism will probably drop the packet due to an out-of-window error. To avoid this situation this patch adds a check to skip the window protection mechanism if no neighbour nodes have already been added. When the first neighbour node is added, the last_real_seqno field is initialised too.
