Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 14/30] sysctl: net: use sysctl_field in 6lowpan fragment sysctls
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 21:42:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7a92871913e86a8ce79bbb4e3e440f3b00e3df86.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org>

The 6lowpan fragment sysctl table is cloned for every non-init network
namespace only to bind the entries to that namespace's fqdir. The clone
also has to patch the low/high threshold limits through extra1 and
extra2 before registration.

Use sysctl_field descriptors so the data and limit pointers are derived
from the registration context. This keeps the table const and removes
the per-net allocation, pointer patching, and free path while preserving
the existing unprivileged net namespace visibility rule.
