AFAICT, in the kernel, an ifindex is always of type "int", not "unsigned int".

see "man if_nametoindex()": unsigned int if_nametoindex(const char *ifname); On success, if_nametoindex() returns the index number of the network interface; on error, 0 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
