Hi Ralf, Damn, I thought the source code reading times where over ;-)
Back to business, I am not sure what is happening in glibc. I only know one thing, the <netax5/ax25.h>, <netrom/netrom.h> and <netrose/rose.h> are not the same as the ones from the 2.6 kernel in <linux/ax25.h>, <linux/netrom.h> and <linux/rose.h>. A quick scan of the Makefile concluded me that these files in glibc where linked to <bits/syscall.h> or another one. Perhaps I am naive and a purist, but the files are incorrect. This concluded for me that the files in glibc need to updated. As a consequence the libax25 and its dependencies, needs also an update. At this moment my system is running stable for 4 days, with a 2.4 kernel. With 2.6 kernel it crashed after more or less 16 hours. Returning on the source code reading! Random call checking in libax25 and the kernel concluded me that most things are in order, accept netromd and nrattach. $ netromd uses obsolete (PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET) The biggest change I found between 2.4 and 2.6 are in the mkiss and bqpether module. So I think, I have to file a new bug report that the mkiss module is not stable in my situation. Where it is used as a loop device through internet. I am running an etch system, with all the ham related packages. The only thing I changed is that I installed the last 2.4 kernel-image from sarge, with its dependencies from etch.
