Hello David,
here are two fixes (the last set) we would to propose for net/linux-3.6.
The one from Def fixes a wrong behaviour of batman-adv in case of virtual
interface mac address change, while the other from Linüs fixes a problem in the
route selection which can lead to a continuous route flapping under certain
conditions.
We would also like to enqueue both patches for sending to stable-3.5.
During merge with net/master you will hit a conflict. I'm going to send some
instructions on how to solve it.
Thank you very much,
Antonio

New subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH net 1/2] batman-adv: Fix change mac address of soft iface.
From: Def <def(a)laposte.net>
Into function interface_set_mac_addr, the function tt_local_add was
invoked before updating dev->dev_addr. The new MAC address was not
tagged as NoPurge.

New subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH net 2/2] batman-adv: Fix symmetry check / route flapping in multi interface setups
From: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing(a)web.de>
If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected
and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this
neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one.
However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the
neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected
neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the
link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from
instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected
router.
This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to
permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups.
This patch fixes this issue by using the right interface for this
symmetry check.
