[parisc-linux] FW: SKB errors

[Witvliet, Hans]

Hi All,

Yesterday I received a (old but unused) 712/100 and tried to install the
latest cd (0.9.2)

All went reasonably well but after some time I got a very annoying lot of
error messages:

ip_local_deliver: bad loopback SKB PRE_ROUTING LOCAL_IN
SKB: pf=2 (unowned) dev=lo len=328
Proto=17 0.0.0.0:68 255.255.255.255:67 L=328 S=0x10 I=0 F=0x0000 T=16

These three lines appear every minute or so.

So I have a couple of questions:
1)	What's going on? it seems that the device driver for the loopback
interface has a problem with its (linked-list) buffers

2)	How to get rid of it? switching consoles is no use: they haunt me
everywhere ;-)
At this moment, I do a "ifconfig lo down" but  I guess its not a proper
thing to do...


Kind regards, Hans Witvliet
