• Bug#265235: kernel: untranslated ioctl32 for pppd

    From Sebastien Bernard@1:229/2 to All on Thu Aug 12 12:00:15 2004

    Package: kernel
    Severity: normal

    On ultra30 (sparc64), the kernel reports an unknown cmd each time the pppd starts on a DSL line.
    The kernel shows :
    Aug 9 11:35:12 calypso kernel: ioctl32(pppd:19255): Unknown cmd fd(6) cmd(00008936){00} arg(effff7d0)
    on socket:[194961]
    Aug 9 11:35:48 calypso kernel: __ipv6_regen_rndid(idev=fffff8007feea340): cannot get EUI64 identifier; use random bytes.

    I always get those 2 lines each time I start the ppp daemon.
    There is no problem apart those warning and a named server that stop responding when the ppp daemon
    loose the connection. Maybe this is not related.

    The same error is reproducable with the ifconfig command. Here is the log :
    Aug 10 01:05:44 calypso kernel: ioctl32(ifconfig:20600): Unknown cmd fd(5) cmd(00008936){00} arg(effffcb0) on socket:[204196]

    Same command here.
