10 ** The values in this file are exported to user space via
11 ** the sysctl() binary interface. Do *NOT* change the
12 ** numbering of any existing values here, and do not change
13 ** any numbers within any one set of values. If you have to
14 ** redefine an existing interface, use a new number for it.
15 ** The kernel will then return -ENOTDIR to any application using
16 ** the old binary interface.

60 * Register a set of sysctl names by calling register_sysctl_table
61 * with an initialised array of struct ctl_table's. An entry with
62 * NULL procname terminates the table. table->de will be
63 * set up by the registration and need not be initialised in advance.
65 * sysctl names can be mirrored automatically under /proc/sys. The
66 * procname supplied controls /proc naming.
68 * The table's mode will be honoured both for sys_sysctl(2) and
71 * Leaf nodes in the sysctl tree will be represented by a single file
72 * under /proc; non-leaf nodes will be represented by directories. A
73 * null procname disables /proc mirroring at this node.
75 * sysctl(2) can automatically manage read and write requests through
76 * the sysctl table. The data and maxlen fields of the ctl_table
77 * struct enable minimal validation of the values being written to be
78 * performed, and the mode field allows minimal authentication.
80 * There must be a proc_handler routine for any terminal nodes
81 * mirrored under /proc/sys (non-terminals are handled by a built-in
82 * directory handler). Several default handlers are available to
86 /* Support for userspace poll() to watch for changes */
