Using ipfw I am getting alot of: pid 643 (ipfw): unaligned access: va=0x1200a80b4 pc=0x120001780 ra=0x120001764 op=ldq pid 643 (ipfw): unaligned access: va=0x1200a80bc pc=0x120001784 ra=0x120001764 op=ldq pid 643 (ipfw): unaligned access: va=0x1200a8104 pc=0x120001780 ra=0x120001764 op=ldq pid 643 (ipfw): unaligned access: va=0x1200a810c pc=0x120001784 ra=0x120001764 op=ldq Messages whenever I do a ipfw -* commands. I know I can add a unaligned_print="NO" to rc.conf to stop these errors, but what I am wondering is: Is this normal or is this a sign of a software problem with ipfw?
