Hi again,

I have another problem when using 6lowpan. I am sending a separate email to 
avoid mixing things up. I am still using a raspberry pi with an Atmel at86rf231 
attached to it on kernel 3.6.11. I have patched the iz tool to allow manually 
setting the short address as well as the channel without association, because 
izcoordinator is not working for me (see patch attached).

I now want to set up a 6lowpan link by doing the following:

$ sudo iz add wpan-phy0
$ sudo ip link set wpan0 address a0:a0:a0:a0:a0:a0:a0:a0
$ sudo ifconfig wpan0 up
$ sudo iz set wpan0 0x780 0x0004 23 // PAN 0x780, short addr 4, channel 23
$ sudo ip link add link wpan0 name lowpan0 type lowpan
$ sudo ip link set lowpan0 address a0:0:0:0:0:0:0:2
RTNETLINK answers: Device or resource busy

What does "Device or resource busy" mean and how can I avoid it? 

I thought that there may be a problem in the kernel so I backported the changes 
that are in the latest kernel that are related to 6lowpan or ieee802154 but 
nothing changed. Since I am sure that people here are using 6lowpan, I am very 
thankful for any hints that you can give me. Is my problem a general problem 
(am I doing something wrong), am I missing a patch on this list (which?) or may 
it be related to me manually setting the parameters (instead of using a 
coordinator)?

I have attached the patch, just if anyone is curious.


Regards,

Bastian
