NetBSD melone2 11.0 NetBSD 11.0 (GENERIC) #3: Wed Oct 14 10:32:25 CEST 2026  root@melone2:/usr/obj/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386
>Description:
The munin-plugin "irqstats" reports wrong names.
It takes the first 24 chars of each row returned by "vmstat -i" and creates a name from that. 
Unfortunately those first 24 chars already contain the values that should be measured (at least at my machine, a PC-Engines Alix, running the i386-version).

As a result the client reports lots of new names back to the server and the server creates lots of new rrd-files.

(I used a patched kernel due to bug 60848, which belongs to the vr-network-code which should have no effect here)
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
The following patch could be applied to /usr/pkg/lib/munin/plugins/irqstats
