           Summary: iptables limit module alignment problem on mips64
           Product: buildroot
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P5
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
        ReportedBy: cassiano at idbinfo.com.br
                CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
   Estimated Hours: 0.0


iptables limit module causes an alignment error on a 64-bit kernel and 32-bit
userland. After inserting a rule containing limit, any other operation results
in the following message on kernel dmesg:

x_tables: ip_tables: limit.0 match: invalid size 40 (kernel) != (user) 48

looking at the limit code, its the only one module that uses CONFIG_COMPAT for
legacy code.
