Hello all, I need to set the IP address of an ethernet interface from a netfilter receive hook function (in a kernel module)....If I call devinet_ioctl() from the hook function....The kernel hangs reporting "Bug at skbuff.c:174" Looks like I cannot call the ioctl from netfilter hooks since they are called in an ISR... I tried moving the ioctl call to a tasklet , still I get the same error...Is there any other solution ? - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
