Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 04/30] sysctl: use sysctl_field in ucounts
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 21:42:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <fa4bde9bced5367d31525c59375a25e962385652.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1787771905.git.legion@kernel.org>
Convert ucount sysctls. The table can now share one static array across
namespaces instead of allocating and rewriting a ctl_table copy for each
registration.
