I haven't looked at the code in question, but the most likely
explanation would be if you're going to re-size the array at a later
date - expanding it if the number of sensors exceeds the initial
(from agent/mibgroup/ucd-snmp/lmSensors.c -simplified for readability)
typedef struct {
charname[MAX_NAME];
int value;
} _sensor;
typedef struct {
int n;
_sensor*sensor;
size_t current_len;
} _sensor_array;
for (i = 0; i < N_TYPES; i++){
/
