Thanks for pointing this out, I will reorder the fields to: struct hashlimit_cfg2 { __u64 avg; /* Average secs between packets * scale */ __u64 burst; __u32 mode; /* bitmask of XT_HASHLIMIT_HASH_* */ This should fix the hole and avoid padding. -Vishwanath On 09/22/2016 12:53 PM, Jan Engelhardt wrote: > On Thursday 2016-09-22 18:43, Vishwanath Pai wrote: >> >+struct hashlimit_cfg2 { >> >+ __u32 mode; /* bitmask of XT_HASHLIMIT_HASH_* */ >> >+ __u64 avg; /* Average secs between packets * scale */ >> >+ __u64 burst; /* Period multiplier for upper limit. */ > This would have different sizes between i386 and x86_64, > necessiting additional compat functions.
