From 795f90c6f13c30484ff10355a6775979f57f78cb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Weißschuh Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2024 19:11:31 +0100 Subject: sysctl: treewide: constify argument ctl_table_root::permissions(table) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The permissions callback should not modify the ctl_table. Enforce this expectation via the typesystem. This is a step to put "struct ctl_table" into .rodata throughout the kernel. The patch was created with the following coccinelle script: @@ identifier func, head, ctl; @@ int func( struct ctl_table_header *head, - struct ctl_table *ctl) + const struct ctl_table *ctl) { ... } (insert_entry() from fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c is a false-positive) No additional occurrences of '.permissions =' were found after a tree-wide search for places missed by the conccinelle script.
