Hi, I'm running into an issue where ifconfig isn't executing properly, and is emitting the following message: # ifconfig re0 inet w.x.y.z ifconfig: can't set link-level netmask or broadcast # This unfortunately also breaks 'dhclient re0' (in my case) as it calls ifconfig. Inserting some printfs in link_getaddr it looks like it's trying to test something incorrectly: # ifconfig re0 inet 192.168.20.3 which: 1, ADDR: 1 which: 3, ADDR: 1 ifconfig: can't set link-level netmask or broadcast # Attaching gdb to the process (because the link_getaddr functions are function pointers and I wanted to remove all obscurity), the failing call is originating from setifdstaddr. The abbreviated stack trace is: - af_link.c:77 - ifconfig.c:773 - ifconfig.c:579 - ifconfig.c:346 The actual line count in af_link.c is going to be fuzzed by 2 because of the printf I added. I haven't traced down what commit exactly is causing this, but the issue appears to be a purely userland based problem so far (I accidentally forgot to swap kernels before booting up the second time and the symptoms are exactly the same). I have both INET and INET6 built into my kernel and userland, but my immediate upstream router only supports IPv4 right now. I tried building with WITHOUT_INET6=yes to see if it made a difference, and it didn't. I'll test any patches needed to remedy the issue. Thankfully I have flash media I can use in the meantime to push code between my two boxes :). Thanks, -GarrettReceived on Tue Jun 07 2011 - 15:29:18 UTC
