  • f8572d8f2   sysctl net: Remove unused binary sysctl code ... Browse Code »

    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.

    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.

  • 0b4d41471   [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl ... Browse Code »

    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.

  • ecab963ac   [PATCH] sysctl: ipx: remove unnecessary insert_at_head flag ... Browse Code »

    The sysctl numbers used are unique so setting the insert_at_head flag servers
    no semantic purpose and is just confusing.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
