No release is necessary. The OpenWrt stable maintainer(s) need to backport that fix to stable or you do it yourself or you use trunk. Hello, this conversation come out to be very interesting to me. I finally realize why Ninux Pisa uses OpenWRT trunk and not a stable realease.

Yes we use TRUNK in ninux pisa for that bug of backfire and also because of Ethernet driver crash on backfire that seems not affect the new kernel in trunk ( but to be sure we have to do some more testing ) On 05/24/12 10:20, ZioPRoTo (Saverio Proto) wrote: No release is necessary.

The problem arises only if you have network devices which are loaded before the batman-adv kernel module has been loaded. Jow suggested to simply load the batman-adv module manually inside the hotplug handler. That works fine. Since I don't use / test the backfire branch I can't tell if the backfire package works as good as the one in trunk. But this is the only bug report I know of and both packages are almost identical. The one million dollar question is if we identify all this problems can we make sure the OpenWRT developers backport all the necessary stuff from trunk in the next stable release ? It's hard to comment because the OpenWrt stable branch policies / timelines / etc are still a mystery to me. However, Jow is well aware of the problem, so that I feel confident it will be resolved at some point.

[OpenWrt-Devel] openwrt backfire 10.03.2 + batman-adv
Hello, my name is Pedro, and I'm writing from Portugal. I would like to ask some questions about batman-adv in openwrt backfire 10.03.2. I already wrote to http://www.open-mesh.org/wiki/open-mesh/MailingList (the mailing list of batman-adv routing protocol) but the developers of the batman-adv said to me, after some chat and replies, that this issue could be solved asking in the openwrt forum, because they didn't know how to solve the problem. The problem happens when i build the openwrt image to use in my routers (i'm trying to build a batman-adv mesh network), the definitions of batman-adv protocol don't start when the routers boot, as i wish. In /etc/config/ there are some configuration files, like dhcp, network, wireless, etc... and the file that i'm talking about is the batman-adv file configuration. In that batman-adv file we can define if this specific router is a gateway server or client... if the visualization mode is server or client... etc... After my definitions are saved and after rebooting the routers, the definitions don't start as i defined, but starts as defined by default... It is necessary to do batman-adv restart to the changes take place... All i want is the definitions start on boot and permanently... Why after saving the parameters and rebooting the router, the batman-adv changes don't take effect? This is the batman-adv configuration example for 1 of the routers: config 'mesh' 'bat0' option 'interfaces' 'wifi' option 'aggregated_ogms' '1' option 'ap_isolation' '0' option 'bonding' '0' option 'fragmentation' '1' option 'gw_bandwidth' '5mbit/1024kbit' option 'gw_mode' 'server' #option 'gw_sel_class' option 'log_level' 'all' option 'orig_interval' '1000' option 'vis_mode' 'server' When the router boots the definitions don't take effect, but after doing batman-adv, everything works fine. I know the issue batman-adv is not a issue to be discussed here, but i was thinking if the problem could be solved by changing something in the build process... (?) Thank you very much. I'm a portuguese student in telecomunications eletrotecnical engineering, in ISEP school-Oporto. This about my final work for my master thesis. I need some help. Best regards.
