In arpping.h, fix structure alignment of "struct arpMsg".
GCC can insert padding in the structure which causes udhcpd to send an
invalid ARP packet on the network. It will then not receive a valid
reply, which can cause it to assign an IP address that's already in use
on the network.
(With kernels before 2.4.20, the "struct ethhdr" in linux/if_ether.h
wasn't marked as packed. This is also an issue if your toolchain was
built with a pre-2.4.20 kernel).
hello
i had some trouble with the filedescriptor in udhcp.
Two things happened on my device:
1.) broken or not connected cable (no dhcp-server)
2.) daemonizing (starting with option -b)
i got a filedescriptor fd=0 from function raw_socket,
after daemonizing (daemon call) the fd is closed.
Client can't recieve data's anymore.
i fixed this problem (like pidfile handling):
the busybox menuconfig triggered my "inacceptable number of spelling mistakes"
upper level, so I decided to make a patch ;-)
I also improved some wording to describe some things in a better way.
Many thanks for an incredible piece of software!

Hello all,
This patch adds more "Help" text to the config system. Almost
all applets now have a help entry. Also, I cleaned up the spacing of
the existing text so that things are consistent. This patch is against
this morning's CVS.

- ip route flush
- different usage for telnetd in inetd mode
- changes for the default flags of the ip features
- if no /usr requested, udhcpc should use the script also without /usr.
modified Kbuild system I put into uClibc. With this, there should be no more
need to modify Rules.mak since I've moved all the interesting options into the
config system. I think I've got everything updated, but you never know, I may
have made some mistakes, so watch closely.
