One of the optimizations I added in xorp.ct was to only pull information
for devices we are configured to use, instead of asking netlink for the
entire tree. This saves a lot of work when you have 1000 interfaces and
xorp only configured for a few of them.
However, older kernels (2.6.18, when compile without
CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS_RTNETLINK, for example) cannot get netlink info
for a single device.
So, I just pushed a patch to xorp.ct that adds a work-around
that allows xorp to fall back to grab all interfaces for
kernels that only support this method.
Thanks to [email protected] for reporting this bug and
giving me enough info to track it down.
Thanks,
Ben
