Biederman" Subject: [PATCH 58/59] sysctl: Reimplement the sysctl proc support Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2007 09:40:03 -0700 Message-Id: <11689657073389-git-send-email-ebiederm@xmission.com> X-Mailer: git-send-email 1.5.0.rc1.gb60d In-Reply-To: References: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 21937 Lines: 840 From: Eric W. Biederman - unquoted 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. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
