It could be. Difficult to know if the same consequences are the result of one or more causes. > Are there any known issues with kernel 2.6.20 that may cause this? > > Or are there any suggestions as to what may be causing this? It could be a bug in the ROHC library or the way you use it. It may also be a bug related to the ARM arch. We may try to determine this with the following tests: 1/ Tests in user space on ARM: Retrieve the latest revision of the main branch. Build the library (maybe cross-compilation is required): $ ./autogen.sh && make clean && make all Run the tests (on the target): $ make check Do all tests succeed? 2/ Tests in kernel space on ARM: Retrieve the latest revision of the main branch. Build the library and the kernel test module (maybe cross-compilation is required: $ ./autogen.sh && make clean && make all Load the kernel modules (on the target): # insmod linux/kmod/rohc.ko # insmod linux/kmod/rohc_test.ko Feed the rohc_test.ko module with some tests (on the target): # test/non_regression/test_non_regression_kernel.sh Do all tests succeed?
