Unnumbered interfaces and OSPF

[Vincent Bernat]

Hi!

I am trying to use unnumbered interfaces and OSPF.

On one router:

ip addr add 10.90.255.3/32 dev eth0
ip addr add 10.90.255.3/32 dev eth1

On the other:

ip addr add 10.90.255.4/32 dev eth0
ip addr add 10.90.255.4/32 dev eth1

On both of them:

protocol ospf INTERNAL {
  import all;
  export none;
  area 0.0.0.0 {
    networks {
      10.90.255.3/32;
      10.90.255.4/32;
    };
    interface "eth0" { bfd yes; type ptp; };
    interface "eth1" { bfd yes; type ptp; };
  };
  ecmp yes;
}

But:

bird> show ospf

RFC1583 compatibility: disabled

                Area networks:

bird> show ospf interface
INTERNAL:
Interface eth0 (10.90.255.3/32)
        Type: ptp
        Area: 0.0.0.0 (0)
        State: ptp (stub)
        Priority: 1
        Cost: 10
        ECMP weight: 1
        Hello timer: 10
        Wait timer: 40
        Dead timer: 40
        Retransmit timer: 5
Interface eth1 (10.90.255.3/32)
        Type: ptp
        Area: 0.0.0.0 (0)
        State: ptp (stub)
        Priority: 1
        Cost: 10
        ECMP weight: 1
        Hello timer: 10
        Wait timer: 40
        Dead timer: 40
        Retransmit timer: 5

tcpdump shows me that no hello packets are tentatively transmitted.

Why is the state of each interface marked as "stub"? I would expect each
OSPF router to be able to discover itself through the PtP link.
