Hey great devs! we've been having a particular issue in deltalibre and quintanalibre (local WCN) with batman-adv, but so far we haven't found a precise way to reproduce it. The symptom is that (after some reboots or physical displacements?) one batman-adv host becomes unreachable on layer3, although it is seen on originators table, and can be batctl ping'ed or batctl tracerout'ed with no problem whatsoever. Even more, it not unreachable from the whole network, but instead from just a few other nodes. So, let's say that the nearer nodes can layer3 ping it , but some others farther away cannot (although i can't assure it depends on the hop distance) All of them can batctl ping it (layer2) A hard reboot of all the nodes solves it, connectivity is restored in all directions. Thing is, I've just came across it again, and managed to do some tests to aid in description / debugging As an aid in understanding network topology, I'm attaching the wonderful output of "batctl vd dot |grep -v TT" for your viewing delight problem node is ana it can be reached from ruth and hquilla (direct neighbours) but arping behaves erratically from colmena or charly and normal ping (v4 or v6) doesn't receive any reply at all when run from colmena or charly I used arping, with and without -b , and seemed like i could narrow the problem down to incoming broadcast packet handling, but further tests just left me more puzzled! all nodes are tl-mr3220 running openwrt trunk r31316 with batman-adv 2012.2.0 , driver ath9k secondary interfaces named _wlan1 are all tl-wn722n which uses driver ath9k_htc nodes are around 100meters (+/-50mts) apart from each other this behaviour has been observed (but not reported) in dissimilar setups, using ubnt bullet2 mixed with mr3220, running r29936 with batman-adv 2011.4.0 , with nodes 1 or 2km apart from each other. Tests are the combined crude output of batctl td and arping, so to make this email ease on the eye, i'm publishing them elsewhere: http://pastebin.com/6PPwN3PS The live openwrt configuration can be analysed in detail at https://bitbucket.org/guidoi/deltalibre-configs/src (it's a free, open network after all! :D ) in particular: ana -> https://bitbucket.org/guidoi/deltalibre-configs/src/6de4ce970fe2/mac/54_E6_FC_BE_26_12 hquilla -> https://bitbucket.org/guidoi/deltalibre-configs/src/6de4ce970fe2/mac/54_E6_FC_BE_28_34 colmena -> https://bitbucket.org/guidoi/deltalibre-configs/src/6de4ce970fe2/mac/54_E6_FC_BE_29_D2 Thanks a lot for the attention, Hope that you are having fun, and that I'm not spoiling it :) Cheers!

Well, seems colmena is the uncooperative bathost another log: http://pastebin.com/FMD9Lieq that can be summarized as follows ### From COLMENA-CASA, can ping bochita but not ana ### From PEREYRA, can ping bochita but not ana ### From COLMENA, works perfect to both destinations colmena-casa and pereyra must pass through colmena, which is for some reason allowing batctl pings , ogms , and whatnot passthrough in its way to ana, but no ICMP echo requests, or tcp traffic whatsoever if it's final destination is ana. if final destination is bochita, everything works as expected. Any ideas? I'm going to delay rebooting colmena as long as i can, in case someone comes up with an insightful test to run :) Gui ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

Has debug support been compiled in batman-adv? IF yes, it would be interesting so see the output of the tt log (batctl ll tt; batctl l) Recently we fixed a bug that which fix has not been released yet. If we are sure that this is the cause, you could eventually try an upgrade to a more recente dev-version.

Remember to set the TT log level (batctl ll tt) before launching batctl l. Actually it would be very interesting to see the log of the involved nodes during the "wrong behaviour period". However, please keep an eye on the log anyway and report if you get any message matching "*inconsistency*" (but report the whole part of the log, not only this message). When you see those messages, please be sure that no clients is connecting at that time (if so, it could be the normal procedure). If you get this message, you should also see which node is involved in the inconsistency (it is reported in the message too) and please report the tt log from that node too.

This time it solved itself after some brief time (a minute) but the symptoms were the same. So I could catch some logs, http://pastebin.com/MEENj94i sadly, i wasn't fast enough to get a live log from the node involved in the inconsistency as you suggested, so the report might be pretty useless.

(tt tables take some time to > propagate?) Well, the log you posted is perfectly correct. You missed some OGMs, therefore the node is asking for an update that he missed. it would be interesting to run batctl ll tt; batctl l all the time on the node that usually experiences the "problem".

The log should be not so big, unless the > bug happens. I admit i haven't left this running as instructed, but on the other hand, so far I haven't come across the original bug again, and a few days ago I asked Nico Echaniz which confirmed that he's not suffering it as previously. he does bump from time to time with [a few moments | a few minutes] of "nodes majaretas" (at first sight) but it resolves by itself quickly[*], which indicates normal behaviour, of missing OGMs and consequently a delay in TT table updating, as you explained. [*] "quickly" means under 15 minutes , at most. Previously, problem would never resolve by itself, being L3-unreachable for hours or days until manual reboot was done. In conclusion, so far so good, i think we can close this as fixed for lack of evidence stating the contrary, heh. I hope gioacchino managed to recompile ninux images and is having the same stableness as we do :) Gui ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

I can add that quite recently we started in a nearby town a new WCN project and we hit this bug the same day we put the first two nodes online; they could bat-ping alright but no ping at all. All started working after a reboot of one of the nodes. Guido noted that this bug is frequently apparent when we configure a node in some point of the mesh (an admin's home for instance) and then move this node to it's final location. If I get the time to do so I'll try to test if this is really the case or just a coincidence so far. Cheers, NicoEchániz ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 24+ messages in thread

I don't quite follow you. Your nodes run pre-compiled images from the openwrt snapshot directory ? If so, there isn't much we can do. As far as I know the openwrt team builds snapshots from time to time. Whenever they do they also upgrade the entire platform - these package may or may not be backward compatible. Take this with a grain of salt. I don't really know how they are doing it. You should contact the OpenWrt developers because you use their binaries (unless I am totally on the wrong track).
