Non-Understood Message

[Nicole <nicole@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,

Can someone help?

I find this message in dmesg:

MYTARGET.0 target: invalid size 65540 (kernel) != (user) 4

I've recompiled everything in site: kernel, iptables, xtables-addons,
MYTARGET, to no avail. I really cannot see what's wrong. I think it
means that there's a mismatch in size of between what the user-space
passes and what the kernel-space expects.

Many thanks

Nicole

here are some code snippets:

        .revision      = 0,
        .family        = NFPROTO_IPV4,
        .size          = XT_ALIGN(sizeof(struct xt_mytarget_tginfo)),
        .userspacesize = XT_ALIGN(sizeof(struct xt_mytarget_tginfo)),
	...
    },
