    batman-adv: Fix speedy join in gateway client mode · 93fe2750
    Sven Eckelmann authored
    
    Speedy join only works when the received packet is either broadcast or an
    4addr unicast packet. Thus packets converted from broadcast to unicast via
    the gateway handling code have to be converted to 4addr packets to allow
    the receiving gateway server to add the sender address as temporary entry
    to the translation table.
    
    Not doing it will make the batman-adv gateway server drop the DHCP response
    in many situations because it doesn't yet have the TT entry for the
    destination of the DHCP response.
