RELNOTES of KAME kit
KAME Project
$Date: 2000/02/17 07:07:49 $
For list of changes from past KAME kit, please refer to CHANGELOG.
KNOWN BUGS/TWISTS
=================
All the following problems will be fixed in near-future SNAP releases,
and the next STABLE release,
- "faithd" sometimes fail to relay rsh/rlogin connection properly. Some part
of data connection seems to be lost. rlogin session may fail to propagate
screen size information to the peer.
- Some of the userland tool may not work properly, if you configure more than
500 interfaces. (libinet6 is fixed for this, but there are some places
where max # of interfaces is hardcoded)
Also, some of non-KAME binaries may not be ready to handle tons of
interfaces. If a code uses fixed-size buffer for SIOCGIFCONF, the code
is not friendly with tons-of-interface kernel.
- Notebooks/laptops problem: multicast hardware filter on ethernet card will
not be properly initialized after suspend/resume session, and this makes
trouble with IPv6 commuincation (which heavily uses multicast).
This is not a KAME problem (*BSD problem), but please be warned.
Workaround: perform "ifconfig down", then "ifconfig up" after resume.
- Intel EtherExpress Pro (fxp driver) has some problem with the
initialization sequence KAME is using (a set of ioctl calls). The driver
will become unusable if consequtive calls to fxp_init() are made, or
consequtive multicast configurations are made.
This problem occurs only with specific revision of the card, and with
specific operating system platform (openbsd, and maybe freebsd[23]).
It is not KAME problem, it is problem in fxp driver.
KAME/OpenBSD contains workaround for this.
PLATFORM DIFFERENCES
====================
As we support various platforms, there are several differences between
those platforms. Here is a brief list of important differences.
We hope to improve support coverage sooner.
Look at a document named COVERAGE for details.
