Description Prarit Bhargava 2006-01-31 14:50:21 UTC

Description of problem: 
 
Whe the avahi-daemon starts, unaligned access errors are sent to the console. 
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 
 
avahi-0.6.5-1 from latest devel builds 
 
How reproducible: 100% 
 
 
Steps to Reproduce: 
1. boot system 
   
Actual results: 
 
 avahi-daemon(28929): unaligned access to 0x60000fffffeef2c4, 
ip=0x20000000000b20c1 
avahi-daemon(28929): unaligned access to 0x60000fffffeef2e4, 
ip=0x20000000000b1ec0 
avahi-daemon(28929): unaligned access to 0x60000fffffeef2e4,

avahi-daemon(28929): unaligned access to 0x60000fffffeef2c4, 
ip=0x20000000000b20c1 
 
Expected results: 
 
No warnings should be seen. 
 
Additional info: 
 
I haven't had much time to debug further.  gdb output that is probably useful:

Comment 1 Prarit Bhargava 2006-01-31 16:08:01 UTC

Jason, if you require an ia64 box to test on please let me know. 
 
P.

Comment 3 Jason Vas Dias 2006-01-31 19:39:53 UTC

Hi Prarit - yes, please can you send access details for an ia64 FC-5 box -
I can't reproduce this problem on any box here - we have no ia64 FC-5 systems
in the lab.
Thanks & Regards,
Jason

Comment 4 Prarit Bhargava 2006-02-01 17:00:21 UTC

Jason, I'm reinstalling altix2.lab with the latest Fedora Core devel on it. 
 
I'll email you instructions when it's up and running... 
 
P.
