The model used by the iterate helper is to separate the processing into two
separate stages. The get_{first,next} routines are concerned with identifying
the appropriate row for a particular request - and ignore the column
(or columns)
that will be required.
The helper routine then takes this particular row, and identifies the relevant
columns (using the 'table_info->colnum' field).
See one of the relevant MIB modules in the source tree (such as
mibII/udpTable.c)
for an example of how this works in practise.

The get_{first,next} routines will loop through all the rows of the table.
There's typically no structure that explicitly contains the number of
rows - these
hook routines can work through the internal representation of the table, however
this might be held.

No problem - just have the get_first routine call this API to retrieve
this number,
and have a shared variable so that the get_next routine knows when to stop.

Again, no problem. Each SNMP request will trigger a fresh
get_{first,next} loop.
Everything should work properly
