Since the get_rate() code incorrectly interpreted bare number, the
behavior is not the same as man page and comment described.
We need to change the man page and comment for compatible with the
existing usage by scripts.
.P
Bandwidths or rates can be specified in:
.TP
+bps
+Bytes per second
+.TP
kbps
Kilobytes per second
.TP
mbit
Megabits per second
.TP
-bps or a bare number
-Bytes per second
+bit or a bare number
+Bits per second
.P
Amounts of data can be specified in:
.TP
return -1;
if (*p == '\0') {
- *rate = bps / 8.; /* assume bytes/sec */
+ *rate = bps / 8.; /* assume bits/sec */
return 0;
}
