OSPF interfaces issue

[Jigar Mehta]

I tried some additional debugging with this setup :
(Note : All interfaces are tap interfaces)

eth-0 (10.0.1.11/24) - ospf  and bgp configured
eth-1 (10.0.1.12/24) - bgp
eth-2 (10.0.2.11/24)
eth-3 (10.0.2.12/24) - bgp

Result : OSPF is up and running, BGP is in established state

Changed OSPF to be on eth-1. It stays in alone state. (Packet capture shows
hello packets being received from neighbor. Neighbor adds us(bird) and
changes to init state but bird seems to just not receive packets . Doing a
'netstat -an' , the receive and send queue are empty inspite of packets
being received on that interface.

Then when we change eth-0 to other subnet (10.0.3.11/24) , OSPF on eth-1
immediately comes up , bgp on eth-1 is also in established state. But BGP
on eth-0 times out.
I think the kernel does not like the interfaces in same subnet ? (just a
guess here).
In my device protocol , i am just scanning interfaces every 10 seconds. I
have a custom forwarding plane and so, dont use kernel protocol( that does
not seem to be the issue here though).

Thanks,
JM
