We never start at an initial Link up. Possible to get another patch
to fix that issue?
The way I read this patch (and according to Christian's comment ) is
to monitor if the
interface flapped/went up/down since Quagga started, it is not meant
to indicate if the interface
is currently up or now (there are already ways to know that). So, the
reported output in your case
is correct; the interface never went up/down since Quagga started.
I though about that too. In the end my take was that since Quagga may be
restarted without the link flapping, it is not that helpful to
synthesize a link-up/down event.
But if the consensus turns out to be in favor of synthesizing a link-up
event on startup if the link is already up, I could also implement that.
I'm in favor of keeping it the way it is. As I indicated above, this is
not about knowing the
current state, but about keeping track of up/down events. (0 up,0 down)
means "pristine"
state. up==down means back to the original state.
