ok I have a structure: struct dhcp_ippacket_t { struct dhcp_ethhdr_t ethh; struct dhcp_iphdr_t iph; uint8_t payload[DHCP_IP_PLEN]; } __attribute__((packed)); this struct is fed to a call to recv as the buffer to fill (or rather a pointer to it is). What I don't get is what does this...

ok I am a total newbie to this so don't laugh too hard. :) That said: I have a uint32 called daddr. it holds the uint32 representation of an ip address. I need to pass it to a function that takes: Function_One(struct in_addr *ipaddr) How would I convert that so that I can pass it in? Thanks...

ahh ok that makes all the warnings go away. I still have a problem where when i run the code, I get a segmentation fault or a bus error (seems to be random which one appears) on the call to the third function. Would you be able to take a look at my code if I sent it to you? I know I am asking...

ahh ok - I do understand, but I think I am missing something. When I use the pointer to pointer code method below, I receive "warning: passing argument 1 of Second_Function from incompatible pointer type" struct dpool_t *dpa; First_Function(&dpa); First_Function(struct dpool_t **dpaOne) {...

hmm ok that makes sense - but why would one use the more complicated double pointer method over the easier single pointer method? I am doing all of this because, using the code above that I gave you, I need to pass struct dpool_t *dpa down two functions, andthen pass a single pointer to a...

My functions don't return anything because this is just example code not real code. I am trying to emulate someone else's code. Let me show you the real code that they are using: /* in the test.h area they have: */ struct dpoolm_t; /* Forward declaration */ /* create the...

Hi guys, I must admit I am sort of a newbie to C, so bear with me. I have this pointer to a structure: struct pool *dpa; declared outside of main (making it global, I believe). now I need to pass this pointer down 3 functions where the third function will need to mess with the data in the...
