I don't know what you mean by that. What sha are you talking about?
I have a system with avahi running and everything's fine.

The key question is what ioctl is it complaining about. You should be
able to find that via strace.

Hello Michael,
Sorry it isn't true that the kernel 5.5 is also affected. A Power Mac G5
user told me that but this isn't correct. I compiled and tested the
stable kernel 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 today and both kernels don't have the
issue with the avahi daemon.
Could you please also test the latest Git kernel?
strace /usr/sbin/avahi-daemon
...
poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=16, events=POLLIN}, {fd=15,
events=POLLIN}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, {fd=12,
events=POLLIN}, {fd=11, events=POLLIN}, {fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9,
events=POLLIN}, {fd=8, events=POLLIN}, {fd=6, events=POLLIN}], 11, 65) =
2 ([{fd=12, revents=POLLIN}, {fd=9, revents=POLLIN}])
ioctl(12, FIONREAD, 0xffba6f24) = -1 ENOTTY (Inappropriate ioctl
for device)
write(2, "ioctl(): Inappropriate ioctl for"..., 39ioctl(): Inappropriate
ioctl for device) = 39
write(2, "\n", 1
) = 1
...
Thanks,
Christian
