Fixes missing MAC addresses and manufacturers on macOS (macOS 27 hid them):

  • macOS ARP Table Fix: macOS 27 hides the kernel ARP table from third-party binaries, so --vendor / --resolve showed - for every MAC and manufacturer, and the ARP harvest silently missed quiet hosts. ns now reads the table directly via sysctl, and the macOS binaries are ad-hoc codesigned with the identifier io.github.criseda.netscanner, which macOS requires before returning it. No privileges needed. In testing, a /23 scan went from 8 hosts with blank columns to 37 hosts with MACs and manufacturers.
  • Clear Warning: If the table still comes back empty, ns now explains why instead of leaving the columns blank.
  • Known Limitation: Run ns directly from a shell. When another program launches it (including zig build run), macOS still hides the table.
  • Release Builds: macOS binaries must be built on a Mac to be signed; see docs/README.md.
