This function exits with a return value of 0, but sets the passed string buffer to an empty string. As a result, the whereis program did not use the value of the sysctl variable "user.cs_path", but only the value of the environment variable "PATH". This update makes whereis use the sysctl function with a fixed OID, which already supports the user sub-tree.
