case CTLTYPE_STRING: {
unsigned char buf[1024], *tbuf;
tbuf = buf;
sz = sizeof(buf);
rc = prog_sysctl(&name[0], namelen, tbuf, &sz, NULL, 0);
The sysctl command first tries with a buffer of 1024 bytes
and retries with the right size when that was too small.
Got it, makes sense. Thanks for the reply!
