Subject: [PATCH] [0/2] SYSCTL: Warn once for all legacy syctls
Date: Sat, 19 Dec 2009 15:58:31 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091219358.549678091@firstfloor.org> (raw)


Even with my recent patch to not warn for CTL_KERN,KERN_VERSION there
is still the theoretical possibility that some program who uses another
binary sysctl regularly will get a flooded syslog.

This patchkit changes this to only warn once for every possible binary sysctl.

-Andi
