Hello,

> Yeah, I could write more legible comments ;-)
In a first time, just begin with "more comments" !! ;-)

util.c, timeval_min, ~110:
I was happy: there is a comment: 
but it seems that {0, x} represents infinity, and not {0, 0}, or I think:
        if(s->tv_sec == 0)
should be
        if(s->tv_sec == 0 && s->tv_usec == 0)
no ?


babel.c, main loop, around 550:
if(kernel_socket < 0) kernel_setup_socket(1);
Previously, we consider that a bad kernel_socket was sufficient to stop the 
program. Hum, I don't think the socket is possibly <0 at this point.
Same remark for the local_socket and local_server_socket.

Is FD_ZERO a non-raming* syscall?

It seems necessary to do a gettime(&now); only after select (in the other case 
we don't have wait anything). So I think it's better to put gettime in the "if" 
statement. If you think that checking for the next timeout may take a 
consequent time, so put the first "gettime" just before the "if".


babel.c, somewhere near 590-610:
if(errno != EAGAIN && errno != EINTR) {
    perror("recv");
    sleep(1);
}
Euhm… why blocking the entire rest of the program just because of a EAGAIN ? 
Don't we would sleep (if necessary) at the "select" ?


And finaly, what is the "*unicast*" things (like "unicast_neighbour", 
"flush_unicast") ?

Thanks!

Matthieu
