X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4b290aae788e06561754b28c6842e4080957d3f7;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

Merge tag 'sysctl-6.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl

Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:

 - Move sysctls out of the kern_table array

   This is the final move of ctl_tables into their respective
   subsystems. Only 5 (out of the original 50) will remain in
   kernel/sysctl.c file; these handle either sysctl or common arch
   variables.

   By decentralizing sysctl registrations, subsystem maintainers regain
   control over their sysctl interfaces, improving maintainability and
   reducing the likelihood of merge conflicts.

 - docs: Remove false positives from check-sysctl-docs

   Stopped falsely identifying sysctls as undocumented or unimplemented
   in the check-sysctl-docs script. This script can now be used to
   automatically identify if documentation is missing.
