Hi,

I'm having a "segmentation fault" problem when using ping6.

When testing on ARM9 platforms (i.MX25 and i.MX27), it returns the error:

root@freescale ~$ ping6 ::1
PING ::1 (::1): 56 data bytes
Segmentation fault

When testing on ARM11 and ARM Cortex A8 platforms (i.MX31 and i.MX51), it works:

root@freescale ~$ ping6 ::1
PING ::1 (::1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from ::1: seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.331 ms
64 bytes from ::1: seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.214 ms
64 bytes from ::1: seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.176 ms
64 bytes from ::1: seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.155 ms

On all cases, I'm using Linux Kernel 2.6.35 (from Mainline) and Busybox 1.15.0

Does anybody have any idea?

Thanks in advance,

Rogerio Pimentel

This seems to be a Busybox related issue. I'd suggests you to try the latest version of Busybox (1.17.2), and if the problem persists, ask at the Busybox mailing list. Don't forget to add strace output to your message.
