1011861 - "Network address type not supported" error on the Hurd

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(NSPR :: NSPR, defect, P2)

Description

[Gabriele Giacone]

Attachment: 0001-Define-_PR_HAVE_SOCKADDR_LEN-for-the-Hurd.patch

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 Iceweasel/29.0.1 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140511113141

Steps to reproduce:

[ Forwarding Debian bug #739658, attaching patch ]

The problem can be tested with the following command from
libnss3-tools :
$ tstclnt -h <https_server> -p 443


Actual results:

tstclnt: read from socket failed: PR_ADDRESS_NOT_SUPPORTED_ERROR:
Network address type not supported


Expected results:

The libnspr4 library doesn't correctly identify the protocol family of
an endpoint on Debian GNU/Hurd. This is caused by the presence of the
sa_len member before sa_family in the definition of struct sockaddr.

The library can be built with the _PR_HAVE_SOCKADDR_LEN macro defined
so that code is enabled to fix the nspr equivalent of the sockaddr
structure. The attached patch enables this definition for the Hurd.
