| Hi list,
| 
| I am happy to announce the fact that OLSR is running fine on the real time
| operating system (RTOS) "vxWorks" (BSD based network stack) from Windriver
| Systems (www.windriver.com). The port is running on vxWorks6.4.
| 
| I ported the OLSR version 0.5.5 to an embedded radio device (PowerPC) and
| tested functionality (incl. multihop, HNA) on 5 radios also with multicast
| messages.
| For multicast I do not use the BMF plugin but a SMF (simplified multicast
| forwarding) version adapted and provided with OLSR informations.
| Since we have no mass storage device in our system I could not use the
| plugin infrastructure from OLSR. I linked some OLSR plugins statically.
| The OLSR daemon is running in a single kernel task.
| The ported plugins are:
| - dot_draw
| - dyn_gw
| - httpinfo
| And, of course, the base OLSR software with BSD stack interface. The kernel
| routing table is modified by OLSR.
| The porting is mostly done by adding #ifdef's.
| 
| During porting I found some bugs/corrections (e.g. adding/deleting kernel
| routes from BSD).
| I do have permission to give this port to the community. So if anyone has
| interest I would do this ;-)
| 
| I probably nedd to setup a Mercurial View? (Need to do that from somewhere
| else, because port numbers are blocked here)
