      sysctl: Move sysctl_check_dups into insert_header · e54012ce
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Simplify the callers of insert_header by removing explicit calls to check
      for duplicates and instead have insert_header do the work.
      
      This makes the code slightly more maintainable by enabling changes to
      data structures where the insertion of new entries without duplicate
      suppression is not possible.
      
      There is not always a convenient path string where insert_header
      is called so modify sysctl_check_dups to use sysctl_print_dir
      when printing the full path when a duplicate is discovered.

      sysctl: Replace root_list with links between sysctl_table_sets. · 0e47c99d
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Piecing together directories by looking first in one directory
      tree, than in another directory tree and finally in a third
      directory tree makes it hard to verify that some directory
      entries are not multiply defined and makes it hard to create
      efficient implementations the sysctl filesystem.
      
      Replace the sysctl wide list of roots with autogenerated
      links from the core sysctl directory tree to the other
      sysctl directory trees.
      
      This simplifies sysctl directory reading and lookups as now
      only entries in a single sysctl directory tree need to be
      considered.
      
      Benchmark before:
          make-dummies 0 999 -> 0.44s
          rmmod dummy        -> 0.065s
          make-dummies 0 9999 -> 1m36s
          rmmod dummy         -> 0.4s

          rmmod dummy         -> 18s
      
      The slowdown is caused by the lookups used in insert_headers
      and put_links to see if we need to add links or remove links.

      sysctl: Stop requiring explicit management of sysctl directories · 7ec66d06
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Simplify the code and the sysctl semantics by autogenerating
      sysctl directories when a sysctl table is registered that needs
      the directories and autodeleting the directories when there are
      no more sysctl tables registered that need them.
      
      Autogenerating directories keeps sysctl tables from depending
      on each other, removing all of the arcane register/unregister
      ordering constraints and makes it impossible to get the order
      wrong when reigsering and unregistering sysctl tables.
      
      Autogenerating directories yields one unique entity that dentries
      can point to, retaining the current effective use of the dcache.
      
      Add struct ctl_dir as the type of these new autogenerated
      directories.
      
      The attached_by and attached_to fields in ctl_table_header are
      removed as they are no longer needed.
      
      The child field in ctl_table is no longer needed by the core of
      the sysctl code.  ctl_table.child can be removed once all of the
      existing users have been updated.

      sysctl: Improve the sysctl sanity checks · 7c60c48f
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      - Stop validating subdirectories now that we only register leaf tables
      
      - Cleanup and improve the duplicate filename check.
        * Run the duplicate filename check under the sysctl_lock to guarantee
          we never add duplicate names.
        * Reduce the duplicate filename check to nearly O(M*N) where M is the
          number of entries in tthe table we are registering and N is the
          number of entries in the directory before we got there.
      
      - Move the duplicate filename check into it's own function and call
        it directtly from __register_sysctl_table
      
      - Kill the config option as the sanity checks are now cheap enough
        the config option is unnecessary. The original reason for the config
        option was because we had a huge table used to verify the proc filename
        to binary sysctl mapping.  That table has now evolved into the binary_sysctl
        translation layer and is no longer part of the sysctl_check code.
      
      - Tighten up the permission checks.  Guarnateeing that files only have read
        or write permissions.
      
      - Removed redudant check for parents having a procname as now everything has
        a procname.
      
      - Generalize the backtrace logic so that we print a backtrace from
        any failure of __register_sysctl_table that was not caused by
        a memmory allocation failure.  The backtrace allows us to track
        down who erroneously registered a sysctl table.

      sysctl: register only tables of sysctl files · f728019b
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Split the registration of a complex ctl_table array which may have
      arbitrary numbers of directories (->child != NULL) and tables of files
      into a series of simpler registrations that only register tables of files.
      
      Graphically:
      
         register('dir', { + file-a
                           + file-b
                           + subdir1
                             + file-c
                           + subdir2
                             + file-d
                             + file-e })
      
      is transformed into:
         wrapper->subheaders[0] = register('dir', {file1-a, file1-b})
         wrapper->subheaders[1] = register('dir/subdir1', {file-c})
         wrapper->subheaders[2] = register('dir/subdir2', {file-d, file-e})
         return wrapper
      
      This guarantees that __register_sysctl_table will only see a simple
      ctl_table array with all entries having (->child == NULL).
      
      Care was taken to pass the original simple ctl_table arrays to
      __register_sysctl_table whenever possible.
      
      This change is derived from a similar patch written
      by Lucrian Grijincu.

      Make __register_sysctl_table the core sysctl registration operation and

      Now that binary paths have been banished into the real of backwards

      path names when registering ctl_tables.
      
      Start the transition to using normal char * strings to represent
      pathnames when registering sysctl tables.  Normal strings are easier
      to deal with both in the internal sysctl implementation and for
      programmers registering sysctl tables.
      
      __register_sysctl_paths is turned into a backwards compatibility wrapper
