I had this exact same problem when working with vtun which uses the
tun/tap kernel module. The IOCTL numbers changed between kernel
versions, I updated my /usr/include/linux files to match my kernel and
recompiled vtun to get rid of the problem. I believe in particular it
was IOR or IOWR numbers that changed. It was a while ago so I don't
remember the specifics, but it did take me a while to track it down.
