Unfortunatelly I've not followed the last two or three weeks commits (new
semester started and so now I rarely have time to fix my personal bridge)
but tonight I synched my tree and immediately noticed a rather nasty bug!
[Using libbb/interface.c:1.24]
# grep eth0 /proc/net/dev | xargs
eth0:311708397 237346 1670 0 1789 1670 0 0 22580308 120297 0 0 0 102 0 0
# ifconfig eth0

All values `ifconfig' is showing are `zeroed' -- I quickly looked at the
last commits I missed and noticed that there were a commit relating to
ifconfig, libbb/interface.c:1.23->1.24 (PatchSet 4338).
I've reversed the patch and now everything is working again. I compared
the get_name's return values from the 1.23 and 1.24 and quickly noticed
that the new revision is leaving `p' right on the sep while the rev 1.23
was leaving it right on the starting of the values...
1-line, 1/3-minute patch attached :-)

in this case) the order was incorrect and there were duplicate entries.

I've found a possible bug in libbb/interface.c, in function
if_readlist_proc(). This function calls get_name(), and passes
as an argument 'name', a buffer of 16 bytes (IFNAMSIZ). The
function get_name(), however, may use more than 16 bytes,
when it is searching for aliases. Even if you don't have an
alias interface, you can run into trouble if the interface
has received more than 99999999 bytes, in which case the
space between the interface name and the rx stats
disappears, as in the /proc/net/dev example below:
wan0.200:264573315 462080 ...
In this case get_name() correctly identifies the interface name
as "wan0.200", but to do that it uses 18 bytes of the 'name'
buffer, which could lead to an unpredictable error.
A simple solution would be to increase the size of the buffer:

IPV6 support to busybox. This patch does the following:
* Add IPv6 support to libbb
* Enable IPv6 interface address display
* Add IPv6 config option
* Adds ping6, an adaptation of the ping applet for IPv6
* Adds support routines for ping6:
- xgethostbyname2
- create_icmp6_socket
* Adds ifconfig support for IPv6
* Add support IPv6 to netstat
* Add IPv6 support to route
Thanks Bart!

-- reverse resolve network name and cache in route and ifconfig
applets, fix print nslookup server name if compile without
uClibc, fix route crashe 'route add', fix warnings compile
networking and pwd_grp applets

make busybox be more uClinux friendly. I also adjusted Config.h for
uClinux so it will automagically disable apps the arn't going to
work without fork() and such.

support code after all). It also contains a patch from Larry Doolittle
that removes two instances of "strlen([^)]*) *- *1", un-shadows two
variables, relaxes requirement for a sprintf(3) that returns number of
bytes written, and eliminates a duplicate subroutine.
