I'm trying to write a simple perl interface to P0fq, a tool which examines network traffic to try to passively determine which OS hosts are running. In the P0fq archive, there is a noddy C program to do this, and my module lifts the guts straight out of that.
When I try to use my module (which is incomplete, but should AFAICT at least compile the C code) I get errors from the compiler, with it muttering lots about errors calling Perl_stack_grow - which I don't mention at all in my code. Rather than cut and paste the code and the errors here, I've put them on my web site: http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david/private/P0fq.pm http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david/private/build-errors Any hints would be most gratefully received! Please note that C is *not* my forte, so I do no serious error checking in the C code. I'm going to do all of that in perl before calling the C function. I'm using C instead of pure perl because the interface I need to speak to (a Unix socket) talks by passing C structs around, and so to be portable (thinking of things like alignment) I can't just use pack and unpack, as the alignment may vary from compiler to compiler and platform to platform. -- David Cantrell | Degenerate | http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david This is nice. Any idea what body-part it is?
