My suspicion is that dhcpd uses netlink to dump the info of the available links, and due to some bug gets confused with the new 64-bit statistic netlink attribute being there now. That shouldn't happen, applications should just ignore the attributes which they don't understand. I'll try to find a second to have a look at this. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
