Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 09/30] sysctl: net: use sysctl_field in xfrm sysctls
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 21:42:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <accaf54c772bc10dc44e2716047ecb74d29ba95d.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org>

The xfrm sysctl table is cloned for each network namespace only to
replace data pointers with per-net storage. The descriptors are
otherwise static, while unprivileged network namespaces still register
an empty table to preserve the existing visibility rule.

Use sysctl_field accessors to derive the per-net storage from the
registration context instead. This keeps the xfrm descriptors const and
removes the per-net ctl_table allocation and free path without changing
which sysctls are exposed.
