for 'netstat -w <delay>') to 100, from 10. 10 was definitely not sufficient
for many hosts; 100 should be for most if not all. This code really should
dynamically allocate the information structures, based on the number of
interfaces in the kernel, account for interfaces that are added or removed,
etc., but given its current structure that would require substantial changes.
interface of the given name, print an error message and exit.
This whole section of code needs to be re-thought, if interfaces
can be dynamically added or removed.
of long-standing bugs:
- Actually deal with the fact that the kernel ifnet list is
a TAILQ; it just happened to work before.
- Use kvm_openfiles() instead of kvm_open(). The code passed
arguments to kvm_open() as if it were kvm_openfiles(), but
apparently went unnoticed since the prototypes are the same.
Amusing bit: there were XXX's in the code which seemed to
apologize for a verbose libkvm, when it happened to be a
bug in netstat!
