netsnmp_assert mitigation patch (https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/code/ci/333aea41eb8bcdb9afae6bb89f3581f8e70ee830)

The following message may be observed while using net-snmp agentx protocol:

net-snmp: <snmp>: NOTICE: netsnmp_assert 1 == new_val->high failed int64.c:370 netsnmp_c64_check32_and_update()

There is no stop or crash of the systemstatd thread after observing this behavior suggesting this is not a real assert.

A mitigating patch has been committed upstream.  A net-mgmt/net-snmp patch has been tested and attached to this PR.

Approved
Comment 2 Walter Schwarzenfeld freebsd_triage 2018-01-13 00:27:30 UTC 
This patch seems never committed. Will not apply at least cause the portrevision is 17. Is this still relevant?
Comment 3 Kurt Jaeger freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-09-28 18:23:06 UTC 
The suggested patch was upstreamed and found it's way into 5.8.
