From bc3ce0b0be6b85e738e80ed25b52ad940f34b921 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bob Copeland Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2014 10:43:08 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: mesh: always use the latest target_sn When a path target responds to a path request, its response always contains the most up-to-date information; accordingly, it should use the latest target_sn, regardless of net_traversal_jiffies(). Otherwise, only the first path response is considered when constructing a path, as it will have the highest target_sn of all replies during that period.
