Yesterday, I upgraded the kernel on my sparc64 to -head, so I was running a mis-matched kernel and userland. The userland was a recent (as of two days ago) stable/10. In the nightly report, I noticed the following: > Network interface status: > Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Idrop Opkts Oerrs Coll Drop > bge0 - <Link#1> 00:03:ba:e0:ce:07 0 64691 0 0 0 11494817 2025493932409880576 > bge0 - fe80::203:baf fe80::203:baff:fe 0 - - 0 - - - > bge0 - spork.pix.net 2001:470:e254:10: 0 - - 0 - - - > bge0 - 192.168.16.0 spork 0 - - 0 - - - > bge1 - <Link#2> 00:03:ba:e0:ce:08 0 0 0 0 0 0 4040291828690585088 > bge2 - <Link#3> 00:03:ba:e0:ce:09 0 0 0 0 0 0 4040291832985552384 > bge3 - <Link#4> 00:03:ba:e0:ce:0a 0 0 0 0 0 0 4040291837582442496 > lo0 - <Link#5> 0 74 0 0 0 38794 2025493932409880576 > lo0 - localhost ::1 0 - - 0 - - - > lo0 - fe80::1%lo0 fe80::1%lo0 0 - - 0 - - - > lo0 - your-net localhost 0 - - 0 - - - As you can see, the "drop" column for the host has completely outrageous values. When representing those numbers as binary, there's an awful lot of zeros in the low order bits, like some structure is being referenced off by a word or two. lidl_at_torb-142: bc -l bc 1.06 Copyright 1991-1994, 1997, 1998, 2000 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Do we have some subtle ABI differences between the two systems (stable/10 vs -head)? -KurtReceived on Fri Jan 06 2017 - 13:54:52 UTC
