Re: [Babel-users] Route-dete :wq

I start running into trouble with 1000+ routes using 1Mbit mcast. Sooner if I seriously slam the network with flent or something else that abuses mcast like mdns. YMMV. So what is the culprit here? What would it take to add an order of magnitude? As for aggregation and filtering: Most of my

[Babel-users] babeld interface

Hello, when building a large mesh network, Freifunk communities use maps such that users can find nodes in the real world. For this there must be a daemon collecting telemetry in the network. This daemon must know a little bit about the network topology, at least its neighbours. Nils and I

[Babel-users] The b8fb6d896a234eaa06 commit in master

Hello, I noticed that there's this new commit (b8fb6d896a234eaa06) which removes explicit initialization from check_xroutes() in xroute.c. Personally I don't think it's a great idea because the initial values of the variables involved are going to be undefined now, which makes the code depend on

I didn't mean any present incorrect behaviour, but rather a weakness which may (or may not) reappear at some point later and cause painful bugs (a zeroed-out struct stands out way more than a gibberish-filled uninitialized one). `do_filter` is two frames deeper from that `filter_result`'s
