From 2a57f182420174c7fd4b19db979a2d135231a963 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jon Maloy Date: Fri, 6 Jul 2018 20:10:03 +0200 Subject: tipc: fix wrong return value from function tipc_node_try_addr() The function for checking if there is an node address conflict is supposed to return a suggestion for a new address if it finds a conflict, and zero otherwise. But in case the peer being checked is previously unknown it does instead return a "suggestion" for the checked address itself. This results in a DSC_TRIAL_FAIL_MSG being sent unecessarily to the peer, and sometimes makes the trial period starting over again.
