[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [RFC] batman-adv boot setup scheme on OpenWRT

Hello Marek and folks, chasing a race condition, I might have delved a little too deep into openwrt boot sequence :( AFAICU, currently there's a /etc/hotplug.d/net/99-batman-adv script which tries to configure both bat0 , and any interfaces coming up that might have to be included there. Problem is, hotplug.d/net scripts are called when interface is "added" but not necessarilly brought up yet. So there's a "sleep 3s" that works in most cases as a window for slow hardware bring up the interface. ...in most cases :( on an old nanoloco2, creating 2 wifi-ifaces in ap mode and 1 in ibss mode, managed with batman-adv, the sleep 3s is not enough. A 6s timeout works around it, but maybe there's a better solution? I've divided the script, putting the "add candidate interfaces to bat0" into /etc/hotplug.d/*iface*/99-batman-adv , which gets called precisely after an interface is actually brought up. This works as expected, and i could even eliminate the original 3s sleep. hotplug.d/iface script adds candidate interfaces to batX after they are brought up hotplug.d/net script configures batX as they appear, Would that work in general? Or was the single hotplug.d/net implemented that way, for a reason i'm missing? Thanks! Gui
