It just means that unaligned accesses are occuring in the ipt_ulog
module. Things usually work fine when this happens, just very slowly,
which is why the warning is printed.
Patrick, this is on sparc64, it appears to be this code:
pm->timestamp_sec = skb->tstamp.off_sec;
pm->timestamp_usec = skb->tstamp.off_usec;
and the NLMSG_DATA() (and thus 'pm') is not 8-byte aligned.
I bet this is a 32-bit sparc binary, has the idea of a compat
layer for the ULOG bits ever been discussed?
Thanks.
