Hi all,

Changes since 20110121:

The net tree lost its build failure.

When CONFIG_SYSCTL is not enabled:

net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_core.c:1891: warning: format '%lu' expects type 'long unsigned int', but argument 2 has type 'unsigned int'
ERROR: "unregister_net_sysctl_table" [net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "register_net_sysctl_table" [net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs.ko] undefined!

Thanks, I'm looking into it.

On a related note, does IPVS need to handle the case
where CONFIG_PROC_FS is not enabled?

Yes.

Thanks.

I checked and it does seem to compile without CONFIG_PROC_FS
and now also without CONFIG_SYSCTL, I'll send a patch for that right
after I finish this email.

I think that in both cases there is dead code, I'll clean that up next.
