[PATCH 50/69] sysctl: remove .child from ax25 table

From: Lucian Adrian Grijincu
Date: Sat Apr 30 2011 - 21:46:55 EST


Only compile tested!

I'm sorry but I could not manage to add a ax25 interface.

Some notable changes: before this patch, each time a device switched
to up/down we would unregister everything under /proc/sys/net/ax25/
and then reregister an updated table with all devices in it (BTW, the
table was GFP_ATOMIC!).

Now each state change (up/down) registers it's own table (e.g.
/proc/sys/net/ax25/ax0/). I'm assuming ax25 devices cannot be renamed,
but if that's possible, this can be fixed by making a private copy of
the device name for sysctl, and unregistering/reregistering the table
on device rename (see net/ipv4/devinet.c).

Also added an empty /proc/sys/net/ax25/ root directory. Without it,
the first device added would have been the first to create the
/proc/sys/net/ax25/ sysctl path and all other devices would have
attached to it. If the first device was to be removed before other
ones, we would have gotten a harmless warning form sysctl telling us
we're unregistering the parent before the children.
