Subject: [PATCH v2 09/11] sysctl: Create unsigned int converter using new macro
Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2025 14:57:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251016-jag-sysctl_conv-v2-9-a2f16529acc4@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251016-jag-sysctl_conv-v2-0-a2f16529acc4@kernel.org>
Pass sysctl_{user_to_kern,kern_to_user}_uint_conv (unsigned integer
uni-directional converters) to the new SYSCTL_UINT_CONV_CUSTOM macro
to create do_proc_douintvec_conv's replacement (do_proc_uint_conv).
This is a preparation commit to use the unsigned integer converter from
outside sysctl. No functional change is intended.
