When using pcap_setfilter on the program below I get a valgrind error. I do not get the error on my 64 bit system, only on my 32 bit system. ==1289== Syscall param socketcall.setsockopt(optval) points to uninitialised byte(s) ==1289== at 0x4123EC2: setsockopt (in /usr/lib/debug/libc-2.7.so) ==1289== by 0x4034458: pcap_setfilter (in /usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.9.8) ==1289== by 0x8048759: main (pcap2.c:21) ==1289== Address 0xbefca27e is on thread 1's stack #include <pcap.h> main() { pcap_t *pcap; struct bpf_program fp; bpf_u_int32 deviceaddr, devicemask; char errbuf[PCAP_ERRBUF_SIZE]; pcap = pcap_open_live("eth0", BUFSIZ, 1, 1000, errbuf); if(pcap == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "eth0: %s\n", errbuf); return 1; } if(pcap_lookupnet("eth0", &deviceaddr, &devicemask, errbuf) == -1) { fputs("Couldn't get address of device eth0\n", stderr); return 3; } if(pcap_compile(pcap, &fp, "tcp", 0, deviceaddr) >= 0) { if(pcap_setfilter(pcap, &fp) < 0) fputs("Error setting filter \"tcp\"\n", stderr); } else fputs("Error with pcap_compile\n", stderr); pcap_close(pcap); return 0; } -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libpcap0.8-dev depends on: ii libc6-dev 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Development Librari ii libpcap0.8 0.9.8-5 system interface for user-level pa libpcap0.8-dev recommends no packages. libpcap0.8-dev suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
