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. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: sparc (sparc64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-rc2 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C
