Good news: I got it to talk to Contiki. While I'm not sure it's working perfectly, a lot of things look right and pings between the two systems pass nicely. I tried a two-node setup with a Contiki leaf and a Linux root, and didn't experiment with any more complex topology. There are two bugs left that complicate things. First, I had to change the order of linker arguments to get RplIcmp to load properly: https://github.com/frtos-wpan/frtos-wpan/blob/master/patches/rplicmp-fix-shlib-dep.patch The other bug seems to be in the Linux kernel: it assumes that an ICMPv6 message is at least 8 bytes. The DODAG Information Solicitation (DIS) Contiki sends is only 6 bytes, and I haven't found anything in RFC 4443 and RFC 6550 that would disallow having such a short ICMPv6 message. The short RPL DIS is rejected by the kernel and thus never reaches simpleRPL. simpleRPL eventually reveals its presence and the two then start talking, but losing the DIS can delay node bringup considerably (minutes if not hours instead of seconds). A tentative fix is here: https://github.com/wpwrak/ben-wpan-linux/commit/2532be747cc973b1a36f80bc773c6784ae9b0ffe Thanks a lot for simpleRPL ! - Werner ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ See everything from the browser to the database with AppDynamics Get end-to-end visibility with application monitoring from AppDynamics Isolate bottlenecks and diagnose root cause in seconds.
