>Description:
This was uncovered trying to run 32-bit Postfix on a 64-bit kernel, and
subsequently verified with a simple utility which just iterates and prints the
IP addresses returned from getifaddrs().
In 32-bit compatibility mode IPv4 addresses are reported correctly, but IPv6
addresses are not. The address family is reported as '0' instead of the
expected 28 for AF_INET6. The same test utility works as expected when compiled
as a 64-bit executable.
>How-To-Repeat:
- configure a network interface with an IPv6 address
- compile a 32-bit program which calls getifaddrs() to iterate through
interface addresses
- examine the output
>Fix:
The problem appears to be in the 32-bit compatibility code in sys/net/rtsock.c
which handles the NET_RT_IFLIST sysctl used by getifaddrs(). The calculated
size of the sockaddr structure does not match that which the client code in
getifaddrs is expecting.
I'm no expert here, but the following patch worked for me:
