From: Joel Granados <j.granados@samsung.com>
What?
These commits remove the sentinel element (last empty element) from the
sysctl arrays of all the files under the "drivers/" directory that use a
sysctl array for registration. The merging of the preparation patches
(in https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)
to mainline allows us to just remove sentinel elements without changing
behavior (more info here [1]).
These commits are part of a bigger set (here
https://github.com/Joelgranados/linux/tree/tag/sysctl_remove_empty_elem_V4)
that remove the ctl_table sentinel. Make the review process easier by
chunking the commits into manageable pieces. Each chunk can be reviewed
separately without noise from parallel sets.
Now that the architecture chunk has been mostly reviewed [6], we send
the "drivers/" directory. Once this one is done, it will be follwed by
"fs/*", "kernel/*", "net/*" and miscellaneous. The final set will remove
the unneeded check for ->procname == NULL.
Why?
By removing the sysctl sentinel elements we avoid kernel bloat as
ctl_table arrays get moved out of kernel/sysctl.c into their own
respective subsystems. This move was started long ago to avoid merge
conflicts; the sentinel removal bit came after Mathew Wilcox suggested
it to avoid bloating the kernel by one element as arrays moved out. This
patchset will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
time memory bloat by about ~64 bytes per declared ctl_table array. I
have consolidated some links that shed light on the history of this
effort [2].
Testing:
* Ran sysctl selftests (./tools/testing/selftests/sysctl/sysctl.sh)
* Ran this through 0-day with no errors or warnings
Size saving after removing all sentinels:
These are the bytes that we save after removing all the sentinels
(this plus all the other chunks). I included them to get an idea of
how much memory we are talking about.
* bloat-o-meter:
- The "yesall" configuration results save 9158 bytes
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230621091000.424843-1-j.granados@samsung.com/
- The "tiny" config + CONFIG_SYSCTL save 1215 bytes
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230809105006.1198165-1-j.granados@samsung.com/
* memory usage:
In memory savings are measured to be 7296 bytes. (here is how to
measure [3])
Size saving after this patchset:
* bloat-o-meter
- The "yesall" config saves 2432 bytes [4]
- The "tiny" config saves 64 bytes [5]
* memory usage:
In this case there were no bytes saved because I do not have any
of the drivers in the patch. To measure it comment the printk in
`new_dir` and uncomment the if conditional in `new_links` [3].
Comments/feedback greatly appreciated
Best
Joel
[1]
We are able to remove a sentinel table without behavioral change by
introducing a table_size argument in the same place where procname is
checked for NULL. The idea is for it to keep stopping when it hits
->procname == NULL, while the sentinel is still present. And when the
sentinel is removed, it will stop on the table_size. You can go to
(https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230809105006.1198165-1-j.granados@samsung.com/)
for more information.

Links Related to the ctl_table sentinel removal:
* Good summary from Luis sent with the "pull request" for the
preparation patches.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/
* Another very good summary from Luis.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZMFizKFkVxUFtSqa@bombadil.infradead.org/
* This is a patch set that replaces register_sysctl_table with register_sysctl
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230302204612.782387-1-mcgrof@kernel.org/
* Patch set to deprecate register_sysctl_paths()
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230302202826.776286-1-mcgrof@kernel.org/
* Here there is an explicit expectation for the removal of the sentinel element.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230321130908.6972-1-frank.li@vivo.com
* The "ARRAY_SIZE" approach was mentioned (proposed?) in this thread
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220220060626.15885-1-tangmeng@uniontech.com

To measure the in memory savings apply this on top of this patchset.

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)
Remove sentinel element from cdrom_table

It's just a long-standing tradition in Linux, don't have an extra character if you don't need it :) thanks, greg k-h

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :

Remove the unneeded ctl_tables that were used to register intermediate
parport directories; only the path is needed at this point. From
parport_device_sysctl_table we removed: devices_root_dir, port_dir,
parport_dir and dev_dir. From parport_default_sysctl_table we removed:
default_dir, parport_dir and dev_dir. Reduce the size by one of the
ctl_table arrays that were not removed
Assign different sizes to the vars array in parport_sysctl_table
depending on CONFIG_PARPORT_1284; this is necessary now that the sysctl
register function uses ARRAY_SIZE to calculate the elements within.
Remove the sentinel element from parport_sysctl_template,
parport_device_sysctl_table and parport_default_sysctl_table.
