net: Convert all sysctl registrations to register_net_sysctl

2012-04-21T01:22:30Z

This results in code with less boiler plate that is a bit easier to read. Additionally stops us from using compatibility code in the sysctl core, hastening the day when the compatibility code can be removed. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman Acked-by: Pavel Emelyanov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Move all of the network sysctls without a namespace into init_net.

2012-04-21T01:21:17Z

This makes it clearer which sysctls are relative to your current network namespace. This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the initial network namespace in other namespaces. This is the same way we handle all of our other network interfaces to userspace and I can't honestly remember why we didn't do this for sysctls right from the start. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

sysctl net: Remove unused binary sysctl code

2009-11-12T10:05:06Z

Now that sys_sysctl is a compatiblity wrapper around /proc/sys all sysctl strategy routines, and all ctl_name and strategy entries in the sysctl tables are unused, and can be revmoed. In addition neigh_sysctl_register has been modified to no longer take a strategy argument and it's callers have been modified not to pass one.

net: '&' redux

2008-11-04T02:21:05Z

I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of & will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break compilation. So, drop & in front of every ->proc_handler and every ->strategy handler, it was never needed in fact. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Simple ctl_table to ctl_path conversions.

2008-01-28T23:01:07Z

This patch includes many places, that only required replacing the ctl_table-s with appropriate ctl_paths and call register_sysctl_paths(). Nothing special was done with them. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl

2007-02-14T16:09:59Z

The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

[PATCH] sysctl: ipx: remove unnecessary insert_at_head flag

2007-02-14T16:09:55Z

The sysctl numbers used are unique so setting the insert_at_head flag servers no semantic purpose and is just confusing. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
