From: Joel Granados <j.granados@samsung.com>

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 elements ctl_table struct. Special attention was placed in
making sure that an empty directory for fs/verity was created when
CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is not defined. In this case we use the
register sysctl call that expects a size.

Not sure why an xfs change came in on a patch tagged "aio:"; I would
have expected "fs:" or "vfs:" or something.  For the XFS part:

This does not make sense, and it causes a build error when CONFIG_FS_VERITY=y
and CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES=n.

I think all you need to do is delete the sentinel element, the same as
everywhere else.  I just tested it, and it works fine.

BTW, the comments for register_sysctl_sz() and __register_sysctl_table() are
outdated, as they still say "A completely 0 filled entry terminates the table."

Indeed. good catch and thx for testing. I'll adjust it on my V2.

For now this is still "technically" correct. However, this will be
removed on the last patchset when we actually delete the check for the
sentinel element.
For now I'll leave it like it is, but I'll double check to make sure
that I remove it at the end.

This was the same comment as Eric. will address it in my V2 and add your

I found the reason why I added the CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES
here: it is related to
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230705212743.42180-3-ebiggers@kernel.org/
where the directory is registered with an element only if
CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is defined. I had forgotten, but I
even asked for a clarification on the patch :).

I see that that patch made it to v6.6. So the solution is not to remove
the CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES, but for me to rebase on top of
a more up to date base.

@Eric: Please get back to me if the patch in
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230705212743.42180-3-ebiggers@kernel.org/
is no longer relevant.

Best.

Yes, that patch was merged in 6.6.  I don't think it really matters here though,
other than the fact that it moved the code to a different file.  I believe all
you need to do is remove the sentinel element, the same as anywhere else:

Indeed. I thought that I had to handle empty array in a special way, but
it seems that ARRAY_SIZE works for empty arrays as well. I'll correct
this as well. Thx again for the feedback.
