For the following names, an array of pairs of struct proc fol- lowed by corresponding struct eproc structures is returned, whose size depends on the current number of such objects in the system. --- I believe that this is no longer the case. First off, as far as I understand it, 'struct eproc' is gone. Second problem is that this sysctl doesn't return any pairs, What it actually returns is an array of 'struct kinfo_proc'. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
