<content type='text'>
Now that sys_sysctl is a compatiblity wrapper around /proc/sys
all sysctl strategy routines, and all ctl_name and strategy
entries in the sysctl tables are unused, and can be
revmoed.

In addition neigh_sysctl_register has been modified to no longer
take a strategy argument and it's callers have been modified not
to pass one.

I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and
stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of &amp;
will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break
compilation.

So, drop &amp; in front of every -&gt;proc_handler and every -&gt;strategy
handler, it was never needed in fact.

This patch includes many places, that only required
replacing the ctl_table-s with appropriate ctl_paths
and call register_sysctl_paths().

Nothing special was done with them.

<title>[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0b4d414714f0d2f922d39424b0c5c82ad900a381</id>
<content type='text'>
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

The sysctl numbers used are unique so setting the insert_at_head flag serves
no semantic purpose, so it is just confusing.

<title>[NETROM]: Implement G8PZT Circuit reset for NET/ROM</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e21ce8c7c013fb223a002c70bb0a547de6c26c12</id>
<content type='text'>
NET/ROM is lacking a connection reset like TCP's RST flag which at times
may result in a connecting having to slowly timing out instead of just being
reset.  An earlier attempt to reset the connection by sending a
NR_CONNACK | NR_CHOKE_FLAG transport was inacceptable as it did result in
crashes of BPQ systems.  An alternative approach of introducing a new
transport type 7 (NR_RESET) has be implemented several years ago in
Paula Jayne Dowie G8PZT's Xrouter.

Implement NR_RESET for Linux's NET/ROM but like any messing with the state
engine consider this experimental for now and thus control it by a sysctl
(net.netrom.reset) which for the time being defaults to off.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
