New Revision: 321790
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/321790
Log:
Don't request CTLTYPE_OPAQUE if we can't print them.
The intent is to skip expensive opaque sysctls like tcp_pcblist unless
they are explicitly requested. Sysctl nodes like this don't show up in
sysctl -a, but they do generate output that winds up being dropped,
unless the user specifically requested binary/hex output or opaques.
This reduces the runtime of sysctl in many circumstances on a loaded
system. It also reduces the likelihood that simply gathering
diagnostics on a sick machine (stuck lock, etc) via sysctl -a might
push it over the edge into a total lockup.
