lldp segmentation fault

2012-11-07T16:06:25Z

> Hi,
> I noticed that LLDP is seg faulting immediately in the very first line after entering to lldpd_main(). The source is compiled for ARM using CS 2009 tool chain. Can you please help?

>
> The gdp debug indicates the failure as below. I found this thread http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11508549/armv5tejl-compiler-problems-with-char-arrays which mentions about some compiler issue for char arrays.
>
> Any suggestions on how do we resolve this issue for LLDPD?
