[ASL] AODV doesn't receive Hello packets

[Dhaval M. <dha...@ya...>]

Hi Vikas,

I am running into a weird problem running AODV:

I currently have 2 laptops set up in ad hoc mode running AODV.  I start up aodvd on one of them and I can see that it is sending out hello packets approx every second.  Then I start aodvd on the 2nd laptop.  Both receive one hello packet sent by the other one, and then both of them go into this mode where they are both sending hello packets, but aren't receiving any.  When I do a netstat -ul, I see that the aodv port is open and that the receive queue is increasing.  That means that though both actually receive the hello packets sent on the socket/port, the code that is supposed to receive those packets isn't getting called, and hence the packets remain in the receive buffer of the OS.

I don't know if you've ever seen this before or not, but any insight would be helpful.

Thanks,
Dhaval
