After looking at the sources, it seems that it's misparsing the : results of the SIOCGIFCONF (patch attached), but after looking at the : sources for a bit longer, I really think this port should be marked : BROKEN -- see the rest of my rantings below. I've cc'd the maintainer. : : I've only looked at two functions. The first is get_if_name() in : getifname.c: : : o It mis parses the ifreq array returned from SIOCGIFCONF (see : patch below) : : o It's got a rather pessimistic idea that a machine will only : have up to 16 interface addresses -- unlikely in my experience. : : o It doesn't find the most appropriate interface, it just picks the : first one it finds that's UP. This program doesn't look like it : works on machines with more than one interface. : : o It doesn't handle non-AF_INET addresses. : : o It hard-codes the MTU at 1500 : : : The second function I looked at -- which prevents hping working for : PPPoE is get_linkhdr_size() in getlhs.c. : : This function is ridiculous. Not only does it hard-code lots of : interface names (leaving out tun*), but it even gets that wrong by : using strstr(). : : roman, is there any chance of fixing this port -- or should I just : mark it BROKEN ? : : brad, it seems that when the above two functions are made to work : (with a little hard-coding in my case), hpinging an address that's : reached through the tun interface over a PPPoE link works. I think : you should raise several bug reports, one for each of the programs : that you find doesn't work. Let's leave this one as applying to : hping.
