2.4.0+ipchains+sparc 450= CRASH!

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

   I have read and applied /usr/src/linux-2.4.0/Documentation/Changes
in this machine, but...it does not work

<--------------------------------------------------------> <-------------------------------------------------------->

        Sun UltraSparc 450, 1 hd scsi, 512 mb ram, kernel 2.4.0, debian woody, kernel 2.4.0

        I use kernel 2.4.0 + ipchains compatibilty. I use ipchains 1.3.9
 This code:

 ipchains -A input -p tcp --dport 80 -s 192.168.0.35 -j REDIRECT 81
        CRASHES the machine! No response to pings, no network activity, no console prompt response, NOTHING. And /var/log/messages does not say nothing about the problem...

        But if I do the same sentence it with 2.2.18 or with iptables in 2.4.0, works ok :-(

Oops. Thanks to Anton for testing and touching up this patch.

The 2.0/2.2 setsockopt code used to do the copy_from_user for you...
