>Description:
Because cmd in struct spppreq (/usr/include/net/if_sppp.h) is an int,
fuword32() should be used instead of fuword() in sys/net/if_spppsubr.c, line
5133, I think.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use /sbin/spppcontrol on a 64bit machine.
>Fix:
Apply the patch I've appended.
Or change the type of cmd in struct spppreq to unsigned long.
Patch attached with submission follows:
*** sys/net/if_spppsubr.c.orig Tue Oct 23 18:47:42 2012
--- sys/net/if_spppsubr.c Tue Oct 23 18:46:27 2012

* data.

! if ((subcmd = fuword(ifr->ifr_data)) == -1) {
rv = EFAULT;
goto quit;
}
