  • This system call has been deprecated almost since it was introduced, and
    in a survey of the linux distributions I can no longer find any of them
    that enable CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL. The only indication that I can find
    that anyone might care is that a few of the defconfigs in the kernel
    enable CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL. However this appears in only 31 of 414
    defconfigs in the kernel, so I suspect this symbols presence is simply
    because it is harmless to include rather than because it is necessary.

    As there appear to be no users of the sysctl system call, remove the
    code. As this removes one of the few uses of the internal kernel mount
    of proc I hope this allows for even more simplifications of the proc
    filesystem.

  • Remove the CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH because:
    1. It is disabled since commit 1be01d4a5714 ("driver: base: Disable
    CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER by default") as its dependency (UEVENT_HELPER) was
    made default to 'n',
    2. It is not recommended (help message: "This should not be used today
    [...] creates a high system load") and was kept only for ancient
    userland,
    3. Certain userland specifically requests it to be disabled (systemd
    README: "Legacy hotplug slows down the system and confuses udev").

  • This Kconfig option was removed during v4.19 development in commit
    771c035372a0 ("deprecate the '__deprecated' attribute warnings entirely
    and for good") so there's no point to keep it in defconfigs any longer.

    FWIW defconfigs were patched with:
    --------------------------->8----------------------
    find . -name *_defconfig -exec sed -i '/CONFIG_ENABLE_WARN_DEPRECATED/d' {} \;
    --------------------------->8----------------------

  • Max10 is a FPGA device. This patch adds defconfig based on Max10 hardware
    reference design. Design is intended to run on Max10 development kit.
