https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=273715 --- Comment #12 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> --- Oh, I see. It turns out that the ifnet pointer is optional, debugnet_connect() will derive the correct ifnet using other netdump parameters, plus the routing table. So to provide the old behaviour we should continue if ifunit_ref() returns NULL (and maybe print a warning...?), or look up ifnets by device name as well. But this also means that to configure netdump, you don't need an interface name at all. But the rc.d/dumpon script requires it (you need to set "dumpdev" to something). So yes, maybe we should have a rc.d/netdump script instead... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
