TomatoUSB

I built tomato with "make V1=9051 V2=MIPSR1-beta22 s" and i also added EBTABLES=y into makefile to build a K26 Std no usb firmware with ebtables support for wrt54gl v1.1
i loaded:
insmod ebtables
insmod ebtable_filter
insmod ebt_ip

issued a acommand:

ebtables -t broute -A BROUTING -p 0x800 —ip-proto udp —ip-dst 224.0.0.0/4 -j ACCEPT

which returned an error:
The kernel doesn't support a certain ebtables extension, consider recompiling your kernel or insmod the extension.

tomato log: user.warn kernel: kernel msg: ebtables bug: please report to author: match->check failed

If i remove the —ip-proto, then it works

Even worse, if i issue this command:
ebtables -t broute -P BROUTING DROP
the kernel returns the same error and hangs the router until reboot

What can i do to fix this? Please, tell me if you need more info and how to obtain it.

At the very least you'll also need:

insmod ebtable_broute

Sorry, forgot to write this extension here. It was also loaded.
Is there a specific order of loading in which this could work? I did try all combinations, none worked.

Any ideas on hows about would i go to solve this problem?

Aha!.. Found a problem/bug in the ebtables build (the last ebtables version if not fully compatible with the 2.6.22 kernel). This issue was there since the first build I included ebtables into. Simple rules work - but most matches/targets don't.
Interestingly, I had multiple requests to add ebtables, but you're the first one to complain ;)…

Will be fixed in the next build.

This is great news! Thx for looking into it.
To stop me from pulling all my hair out, i started looking around to find some sort of debugging tool for it. A quick look took me to the JTAG wiggler as i assumed i could use it for debugging. I found this one:
http://www.diygadget.com/universal-jtag-adapter-for-routers-modem-fta-and-more.html
Am i on the right track? I only saw examples for debricking, but can it be used for realtime debugging? How do you debug it?

Relax Jozza. He already said he would fix it.

hehe, are trying to keep me away?

No, but talking about a jtag wiggler for the router makes me nervous.

sorry, i don't know anything about your intern fears/jokes/whatever, so do you care to elaborate on that?
And please, if it doesn't mean any new information useful to me/this community about the subject, please withhold yourself of any further nebular comments, no offense. There are other websites for that purpose…
