>Organization:
>Environment:
4.2-STABLE from Jan 2000
>Description:
The file <sys/user.h> (needed for the KERN_PROC sysctl oid) uses variables
defined by <sys/param.h>, but neither is documented as necessary, and the
latter is not automatically included by the former.
>How-To-Repeat:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/sysctl.h>
#include <sys/user.h>
int
main()
{
}
>Fix:
include <sys/param.h> in <sys/user.h>.
It may be good to either document in sysctl(3) that <sys/user.h> is
needed to interpret the KERN_PROC oid, or include it in <sys/sysctl.h>.
