Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 25/30] sysctl: bridge: use sysctl_field for br_netfilter sysctls
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 21:42:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <79750a1c9bc5b1bcdd86925800d4e668fde43112.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org>

br_netfilter clones its sysctl table for each non-init network namespace
so the registration path can patch in namespace-local data pointers. The
copied table then has to be kept alive until namespace teardown only so
it can be freed after unregistering the sysctls.

Use sysctl_field to derive the br_netfilter per-net data from the
registration context instead. This keeps the sysctl descriptors static
and const, and removes the per-net table copy and unregister-time free.
