Subject: [TIPC] Enabling an already-enabled bearer triggers brief link flap (~243ms down) despite 1000ms tolerance
Questions: 1. Behavior: Is re-enabling an already-enabled bearer expected to reset the link?
No, re-enabling an active bearer does not reset that bearer/link. TIPC kernel rejects that command and returns error message "Error: Already enabled".
2. Tolerance: Why does the link go down for 200ms when tolerance is 1000ms?
There is no relation between tolerance and duration of down link,
3. API Design: Is there an idempotency option for bearer enable?
I do not understand this question. Can you give an example of the "option" you expect to have ?
