Given nodes 1 and 2, where node 1 has an advskew of 0 and node 2 has an advskew of 100, making them master and backup respectively. If net.inet.carp.demotion is set to a negative value on node 1, node 2 might become master while node 1 still retains it master status. Wether or not node 2 becomes master seems to depend on the nodes advskew and what the demotion sysctl was set to on node 1. The reason for node 2 becoming master seems to be that the calculated advskew taking demotion into account is truncated to a single unsigned byte when copied into the carp header for sending, and node 1 stays master since it takes uses the whole non-truncated calculated advskew when deciding wether to stay master.
