Description

Under ipv4, netif

I have igb1_vlan3, but the real interface is igb1_vlan36.

the 6 is missing.

Destination Gateway Flags Use Mtu Netif Expire

This a "wonderful" feature of the netstat utility. The underlying code does this command to gather the data:
/usr/bin/netstat -rW -f inet

The "W" is supposed to make the display wide (and thus not cut off the characters in any fields). But it still limits the text length of the Netif field!

That is rubbish. Can someone fix that on FreeBSD? Or add a "WW" option that does "really do not truncate any output fields".

This was fixed recently in FreeBSD HEAD,

https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=290367

Not sure if that had an MFC (searching doesn't turn one up)

Seems a good thing to get MFC'd back to 10-STABLE - it makes the output do what most people are hoping it would do anyway. Admittedly it could break someones (dumb) script that expects the -W output to have fixed-width (but wider than ordinary) columns. But the doc of -W implies that the output could be any width. Nobody should be depending on fixed-width columns when using -W

Anyway, I guess ESF knows how to start the MFC process. It seems an easy little bit of crud to fix.

ume@ said he is going to MFC changes, and he also sent us the stable/10 patch. It was applied at

this actually working for anyone? Building world on a stock 11-CURRENT now to check it. VLANs on lagg for instance still come up cut off to 10 characters in 'netstat -rW -f inet'. lagg0_vlanXX ends up as 'lagg0_vlan'.

That patch fixes the interface name field output for:
/usr/bin/netstat -i -f inet
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Idrop Opkts Oerrs Coll
re0 - 10.49.68.0/22 10.49.68.250 0 - - 0 - -
re1 - 10.49.208.0/2 10.49.209.3 119101 - - 3176 - -
...
re0_vlan901 - 172.16.0.0 172.16.0.1 0 - - 0 - -

But not for:
/usr/bin/netstat -rW -f inet
Routing tables

Internet:
Destination Gateway Flags Use Mtu Netif Expire
...
172.16.0.0 link#13 U 0 1500 re0_vlan90
172.16.0.1 link#13 UHS 0 16384 lo0

There needs to be something similar for the Netif column in different code.

This was fixed on FreeBSD HEAD on Nov 20, after following commit:

https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=291097

This is marked to be MFC'd to stable/10 in 1 week. After it's MFC'd I'll merge stable/10 to our devel branch and this ticket will be fixed. Moving it to new for now
