here's a fragment of code fom sysctl_kern_proc (/sys/kern/kern_proc.c)
if (oidp->oid_number == KERN_PROC_PID) {
if (namelen != 1)
return (EINVAL);
p = pfind((pid_t)name[0]);
if (!p)
return (0);
^^^^^^ shouldn't that be ESRCH ?
I ask because sysctl isn't returning an error when I try to get the proc
struct for a non-existent process. Seems to me that it should.
