Hi Andreas,
yes, those are loop detection packets. Preventing these entries
from the local
translation table has been implemented only recently. We can
potentially do
the same for global addresses as well, it just hasn't been done so
far ... at
least I don't see a reason prevening us from that. It is probably
added by
"speedy join" in the first place.
This was the case at least for me. Andreas, do yours have the temporary flag set, too?
If I remember it correctly they are shown as "regular" MAC addresses without any special flags set (like any real mac address of existing devices). In the meantime I kick these entries in batadv_tt_global_add. But if you are interested I could revert my firmware and give a more precise answer.
To me, it would be sufficient to get a patch from your or Linus or anyone else to fix this. :)
Thanks! Simon
