Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 26/30] sysctl: net: use sysctl_field for MPLS sysctls
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 21:42:30 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <190a3b46399c24eb176b8d46a246ad574d0e5d33.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org>
MPLS clones both its per-net and per-device sysctl tables so
registration can turn offset-based entries into pointers to the
corresponding network namespace or MPLS device. These mutable copies
then have to remain allocated until the sysctls are unregistered.
Use sysctl_field accessors to resolve per-net data from struct sysctl_context,
and embed that context in an MPLS device-specific wrapper for the
per-device table. This allows both descriptor arrays to remain static
and const while preserving access to the network namespace and mpls_dev
state.
Remove the per-instance table clones, offset arithmetic, and matching
unregister-time frees.
