Working around unsupported Ethernet card with PXE or UEFI?

2019-06-20 Thread Thomas Mueller
Is it possible to build and install FreeBSD so as to be bootable and access the internet with an Ethernet card that doesn't work in FreeBSD? Could Ethernet support be obtained through UEFI? Or could FreeBSD be installed on another computer or on a NAS NFS share? NAS would probably not have TFT

net.inet.ip.stats - struct ipstat.ips_total - appears to be double the actual number

Hi there, I'm trying to write a patch for collectd to generate trend graphs on ipv4 and ipv6 statistics. I use the sysctls net.inet.ip.stats and net.inet6.ip6.stats for this. The structs I use to parse these sysctls are "struct ipstat" and "struct ip6stat". While doing this, I keep running in
