Merge tag 'sysctl-6.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl
Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados: - Remove sentinel elements from ctl_table structs in kernel/* Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size and runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. Removals for net/, io_uring/, mm/, ipc/ and security/ are set to go into mainline through their respective subsystems making the next release the most likely place where the final series that removes the check for proc_name == NULL will land. This adds to removals already in arch/, drivers/ and fs/. - Adjust ctl_table definitions and references to allow constification - Remove unused ctl_table function arguments - Move non-const elements from ctl_table to ctl_table_header - Make ctl_table pointers const in ctl_table_root structure Making the static ctl_table structs const will increase safety by keeping the pointers to proc_handler functions in .rodata. Though no ctl_tables where made const in this PR, the ground work for making that possible has started with these changes sent by Thomas Weißschuh. * tag 'sysctl-6.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl: sysctl: drop now unnecessary out-of-bounds check sysctl: move sysctl type to ctl_table_header sysctl: drop sysctl_is_perm_empty_ctl_table sysctl: treewide: constify argument ctl_table_root::permissions(table) sysctl: treewide: drop unused argument ctl_table_root::set_ownership(table) bpf: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array delayacct: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array kprobes: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array printk: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array scheduler: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array seccomp: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array timekeeping: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array ftrace: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array umh: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array kernel misc: Remove the now superfluous sentinel elements from ctl_table array
