[PATCH 58/59] sysctl: Reimplement the sysctl proc support

Eric W. Biederman
2007-01-16T16:59:01Z

With this change the sysctl inodes can be cached and
nothing needs to be done when removing a sysctl table.

For a costk of 2K code we will save about 4K of static tables
(when we remove de from ctl_table) and 70K in proc_dir_entries
that we will not allocate, or about half that on a 32bit arch.

The speed feels about the same, even though we can now cache
the sysctl dentries :(

We get the core advantage that we don't need to have a
1 to 1 mapping between ctl table entries and proc files.
Making it possible to have /proc/sys vary depending on
the namespace you are in. The currently merged namespaces
don't have an issue here but the network namespace under
/proc/sys/net needs to have different directories depending
on which network adapters are visible. By simply being
a cache different directories being visible depending
on who you are is trivial to implement.
