This crate provides a safe interface for reading and writing information to the kernel using the sysctl interface.

Currently only developed and tested on FreeBSD.
Contributions for improvements and other platforms are welcome.

Usage

Add to Cargo.toml

Example

sysctl comes with several examples, see the examples folder.

Run with:

$ cargo run --example value

Or in a separate crate:

extern crate sysctl;

fn main() {
    let ctl = "kern.osrevision";
    let d: String = sysctl::description(ctl).unwrap();
    println!("Description: {:?}", d);

    let val_enum = sysctl::value(ctl).unwrap();
    if let sysctl::CtlValue::Int(val) = val_enum {
        println!("Value: {}", val);
    }
}
