/* Service support for remote MIB subtrees - by D.C. van Moolenbroek */
/*
 * In effect, this is a lightweight version of the MIB service's main and tree
 * code.  Some parts of the code have even been copied almost as is, even
 * though the copy here operates on slightly different data structures in order
 * to keep the implementation more lightweight.  For clarification on many
 * aspects of the source code here, see the source code of the MIB service.
 *
 * There is no way for this module to get to know about MIB service deaths
 * without possibly interfering with the main code of the service this module
 * is a part of.  As a result, re-registration of mount points after a MIB
 * service restart is not automatic.  Instead, the main service code could
 * implement re-registration by first calling rmib_reset() and then making the
 * appropriate rmib_register() calls again.  TODO: it would be nicer if this
 * module implemented re-registration, but that requires saving the MIB path
 * for each of the registered subtrees.
