(11:58:09 AM) gui_: ah, ordex, btw, there's no "in the middle" :(
(11:58:29 AM) ordex: what do you mean?
(11:58:41 AM) ordex: does it happen with two nodes only?
(11:58:44 AM) gui_: labanda-este is a direct neighbor of tdorado
(11:58:49 AM) gui_: i mean the path is
(11:58:53 AM) gui_: oeste -> este -> tdorado
And, finally, to throw some spice into the mix, i downgraded
kmod-batman-adv just in labanda-este (my key suspect) twice, and...
i can reproduce this issue with 3.8.3+2013.2.0-2 and 3.8.3+2013.1.0-3
but not with 3.8.3+2012.4.0-1
both labanda-oeste and tdorado are still running 2013.2.0. Downgrading
labanda-este to 2012.4.0 was enough to solve the issue.
so it looks like a regression introduced between 2012.4.0 and 2013.1.0
yet, it is pretty obscure to me what is actually happening, (and why
only in this scenario) so i'll try to get some dumps as promised, but
since my current internet connection depends on this link, i was a bit
in a hurry to get it back to stable :P
Cheers!
Gui
