Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Start using sysctl paths in the core kernel code
Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2007 15:58:29 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <475008F5.3000506@openvz.org> (raw)

The patches from Eric, that add support for so called ctl_paths
has recently being accepted, so I hope we can start using this
very useful feature.

To begin with, I switched the core kernel code to use the paths.
The rest code to be patched (after this set) will be:
 * arch-specifi,
 * some filesystems,
 * networking.

After this set the total vmlinux size decrease is ~500 bytes:

add/remove: 5/6 grow/shrink: 5/1 up/down: 121/-616 (-495)

mq_sysctl_dir                                 88       -     -88
ipc_root_table                                88       -     -88
fs_table                                     792     704     -88

The set is prepared to fit the 2.6.24-rc3-mm2 kernel with Eric's
patches concerning sysctls.
