Oh, you meant DR IP, not neghbor IP. I think that it is correct - the
process should start with the node idea of DR IP, which is initially
zero (RFC 2328 9.4. the first paragraph).
It should also be fixed by the second election:
/* 9.4. (4) */
if (((ifa->drid == myid) && (ndr != &me))
|| ((ifa->drid != myid) && (ndr == &me))
|| ((ifa->bdrid == myid) && (nbdr != &me))
|| ((ifa->bdrid != myid) && (nbdr == &me)))
{
me.dr = ndr ? neigh_get_id(p, ndr) : 0;
me.bdr = nbdr ? neigh_get_id(p, nbdr) : 0;
nbdr = elect_bdr(p, ifa->neigh_list);
ndr = elect_dr(p, ifa->neigh_list);
if (ndr == NULL)
ndr = nbdr;
}
