It reports programs that attempt to use the removed sysctl. It would help if your change description had a reason why we don't want to warn people that a program has used a removed system call. Probably something like: We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years and believe there are no more users. Even if there are users of this interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any longer. With a change like that made to the patch description. Acked-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebied...@xmission.com>
