kernel/sysctl.c

/*
 * sysctl.c: General linux system control interface
 *
 * Begun 24 March 1995, Stephen Tweedie
 * Added /proc support, Dec 1995
 * Added bdflush entry and intvec min/max checking, 2/23/96, Tom Dyas.
 * Added hooks for /proc/sys/net (minor, minor patch), 96/4/1, Mike Shaver.
 * Added kernel/java-{interpreter,appletviewer}, 96/5/10, Mike Shaver.
 * Dynamic registration fixes, Stephen Tweedie.
 * Added kswapd-interval, ctrl-alt-del, printk stuff, 1/8/97, Chris Horn.
 * Made sysctl support optional via CONFIG_SYSCTL, 1/10/97, Chris
 *  Horn.
 * Added proc_doulongvec_ms_jiffies_minmax, 09/08/99, Carlos H. Bauer.
 * Added proc_doulongvec_minmax, 09/08/99, Carlos H. Bauer.
 * Changed linked lists to use list.h instead of lists.h, 02/24/00, Bill
 *  Wendling.
 * The list_for_each() macro wasn't appropriate for the sysctl loop.
 *  Removed it and replaced it with older style, 03/23/00, Bill Wendling

/**
 * register_sysctl_table - register a sysctl hierarchy
 * @table: the top-level table structure
 *
 * Register a sysctl table hierarchy. @table should be a filled in ctl_table
 * array. An entry with a ctl_name of 0 terminates the table. 
 *
 * The members of the &ctl_table structure are used as follows:
 *
 * ctl_name - This is the numeric sysctl value used by sysctl(2). The number
 *            must be unique within that level of sysctl
 *
 * procname - the name of the sysctl file under /proc/sys. Set to %NULL to not
 *            enter a sysctl file
 *
 * data - a pointer to data for use by proc_handler
 *
 * maxlen - the maximum size in bytes of the data
 *
 * mode - the file permissions for the /proc/sys file, and for sysctl(2)
 *
 * child - a pointer to the child sysctl table if this entry is a directory, or
 *         %NULL.
 *
 * proc_handler - the text handler routine (described below)
 *
 * strategy - the strategy routine (described below)
 *
 * de - for internal use by the sysctl routines
 *
 * extra1, extra2 - extra pointers usable by the proc handler routines
 *
 * Leaf nodes in the sysctl tree will be represented by a single file
 * under /proc; non-leaf nodes will be represented by directories.
 *
 * sysctl(2) can automatically manage read and write requests through
 * the sysctl table.  The data and maxlen fields of the ctl_table
 * struct enable minimal validation of the values being written to be
 * performed, and the mode field allows minimal authentication.
 *
 * More sophisticated management can be enabled by the provision of a
 * strategy routine with the table entry.  This will be called before
 * any automatic read or write of the data is performed.
 *
 * The strategy routine may return
 *
 * < 0 - Error occurred (error is passed to user process)
 *
 * 0   - OK - proceed with automatic read or write.
 *
 * > 0 - OK - read or write has been done by the strategy routine, so
 *       return immediately.
 *
 * There must be a proc_handler routine for any terminal nodes
 * mirrored under /proc/sys (non-terminals are handled by a built-in
 * directory handler).  Several default handlers are available to
 * cover common cases -
 *
 * proc_dostring(), proc_dointvec(), proc_dointvec_jiffies(),
 * proc_dointvec_userhz_jiffies(), proc_dointvec_minmax(), 
 * proc_doulongvec_ms_jiffies_minmax(), proc_doulongvec_minmax()
 *
 * It is the handler's job to read the input buffer from user memory
 * and process it. The handler should return 0 on success.
 *
 * This routine returns %NULL on a failure to register, and a pointer
 * to the table header on success.
