Kernel Assertation

[Kendy Kutzner]

Hi,

I'm using click (CVS) with some elements written by me inside the
Linux (2.4.18) Kernel. Most things just work fine, but the following
problems occured: 1) after a few messages sent, the kernel prints out

Sep 13 15:49:53 node1 kernel: KERNEL: assertion
(atomic_read(&sk->wmem_alloc) == 0) failed at af_inet.c(174)

2) When I put packets to ToHost/ToHostSniffer, most protocols (ARP,
ICMP, UDP) are accepted, answered by the Kernel or forwarded to the
listening application. Fine. But TCP packets never hit the TCP stack.
The test SYN packet I have sent showed up in iptables and in the
running packet sniffer, apparently with correct checksum, but i've
never seen an ACK. In netstat -s the counter for IP is incremented,
but the one for TCP is not.

Can anybody give me any pointers what I've to do to avoid the above
problems?

TIA,
Kendy
