Hello,

I am returning to the problem I experienced one month ago (and still
have) with MIPL 2.0.1 running as MN, where BU's is never sent, mip6d
appears to be hanging and can not be stopped by ctrl-c.

I think I have found the place where the problem occurs: 

The routine rtnl_ext_listen in rtnl.c makes a call to recvmsg. This call
returns a status of -1 and an error EINVAL that indicates a parameter
problem. This does not cause rtnl_ext_listen to exit. It continues and
enters the loop starting with  "for (h ="  where it goes into an endless
loop, that is the reason why ctrl-c does not stop the program. By
inserting in the loop a 1 microsecond sleep it gets slowed down so it
can be aborted and ctrl-c works again. This obviously does not solve the
problem of BU's not being sent and I am assuming the parameter problem
is the reason. Any suggestions on solving the problem would be highly
appreciated.

Best regards,

Leif
