Message-Id: <200611160003.02681.hasso@estpak.ee> Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2006 00:03:02 +0200 From: Hasso Tepper <hasso@...pak.ee> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: Sysctl syscall Compiling the program which uses a lot "sysctl" syscalls, gives me this warning on Debian unstable: "warning: the `sysctl' syscall has been removed from 2.6.18+ kernels, direct access to `/proc/sys' should be used instead." Is it true? And what can be used as alternative which would work with both 2.4 and 2.6 kernels and would work with capabilities (sys/capability.h)? Accessing `/proc/sys' directly isn't such alternative as it doesn't work with capabilities. regards, -- Hasso Tepper Elion Enterprises Ltd.
