Nmap keeps saying “Problem binding to interface , errno: 22 socket_bindtodevice: Invalid argument”

[TheAlexDev23]

I’m new to the ish app, and I’ve been trying to run nmap on it. I run it on an IPad Pro (2020)

I run the following command:

nmap 192.168.128.1

But it shows this error many times before showing the scan result:

Problem binding to interface , errno: 22
socket_bindtodevice: Invalid argument

While the scan result actually outputs correctly, this keeps happening in any type of scan to any IP.

I have met the same question. It seems like something wrong about the network setting of this system.
Hope author can help to fix.

Just adduser USERNAME
loginuser USERNAME

I am also having this issue. When running nmap as root user I get the AF_NETLINK error as described in the blog. Running as a user causes the described error. Running dmesg afterwards prints nothing, so it doesn’t seem to be a syscall issue.
