I'm doing some work that requires that I have a sysctl structure
be passed around, but inside that structure are several pointers I
may need to dereference.
Basically:
struct mysysctldata {
.... (data here)
void *moredata;
size_t morelen;
};
What is the proper way of sysctl'ing IN the data from moredata?
I need to make a copy of the sysctl req, but... I'm not sure what
to initialize the 'lock' member to.
Any hints would be appeciated.
