Hi Dave,
you made in net/ipv4/devinet.c the following change:
- struct ifreq ifr;
+ struct ifreq *ifr = (struct ifreq *) buf;
Looking at the code you've got to change the sizeof calculations also:
--- net/ipv4/devinet.c.~1~ Thu Jun 10 07:54:44 1999
+++ net/ipv4/devinet.c Fri Jun 11 09:17:34 1999
@@ -615,10 +615,10 @@
for ( ; ifa; ifa = ifa->ifa_next) {
if (!ifr) {
- done += sizeof(ifr);
+ done += sizeof(struct ifreq);
continue;
}
- if (len < (int) sizeof(ifr))
+ if (len < (int) sizeof(struct ifreq))
return done;
memset(ifr, 0, sizeof(struct ifreq));
if (ifa->ifa_label)
This should fix the if_index bug I've reported. ifc_len is set to 16
for my four interfaces - and sizeof (ifr) is 4 on my i486.
