    DESCRIPTION

    These functions and macros provide an interface for creating and deleting sysctl oids at runtime (e.g. during lifetime of a module). The alternative method, based on linker sets (see    #include <sys/linker_set.h>
    and src/sys/kern/kern_sysctl.c for details), only allows creation and deletion on module load and unload respectively.

    Dynamic oids of type CTLTYPE_NODE are reusable so that several code sections can create and delete them, but in reality they are allocated and freed based on their reference count. As a consequence, it is possible for two or more code sections to create partially overlapping trees that they both can use. It is not possible to create overlapping leaves, nor to create different child types with the same name and parent.

    Newly created oids are connected to their parent nodes. In all these functions and macros (with the exception of sysctl_remove_oid () ,);
    one of the required parameters is Fa parent , which points to the head of the parent's list of children.

    Most top level categories are created statically. When connecting to existing static oids, this pointer can be obtained with the SYSCTL_STATIC_CHILDREN ();
    macro, where the Fa OID_NAME argument is name of the parent oid of type CTLTYPE_NODE (i.e., the name displayed by sysctl(8), preceded by underscore, and with all dots replaced with underscores).

    When connecting to an existing dynamic oid, this pointer can be obtained with the SYSCTL_CHILDREN ();
    macro, where the Fa oidp argument points to the parent oid of type CTLTYPE_NODE

    The sysctl_add_oid ();
    function creates raw oids of any type. If the oid is successfully created, the function returns a pointer to it; otherwise it returns NULL Many of the arguments for sysctl_add_oid ();
    are common to the macros. The arguments are as follows:

    Fa ctx
    A pointer to an optional sysctl context, or NULL See sysctl_ctx_init9 for details. Programmers are strongly advised to use contexts to organize the dynamic oids which they create, unless special creation and deletion sequences are required. If Fa ctx is not NULL the newly created oid will be added to this context as its first entry.
    Fa parent
    A pointer to a struct sysctl_oid_list which is the head of the parent's list of children.
    Fa number
    The oid number that will be assigned to this oid. In almost all cases this should be set to OID_AUTO which will result in the assignment of the next available oid number.
    Fa name
    The name of the oid. The newly created oid will contain a copy of the name.
    Fa kind
    The kind of oid, specified as a bit mask of the type and access values defined in the    #include <sys/sysctl.h>
    header file. Oids created dynamically always have the CTLFLAG_DYN flag set. Access flags specify whether this oid is read-only or read-write, and whether it may be modified by all users or by the superuser only.
    Fa arg1
    A pointer to any data that the oid should reference, or NULL
    Fa arg2
    The size of Fa arg1 , or 0 if Fa arg1 is NULL
    Fa handler
    A pointer to the function that is responsible for handling read and write requests to this oid. There are several standard handlers that support operations on nodes, integers, strings and opaque objects. It is possible also to define new handlers using the SYSCTL_ADD_PROC ();
    macro.
    Fa format
    A pointer to a string which specifies the format of the oid symbolically. This format is used as a hint by sysctl(8) to apply proper data formatting for display purposes. Currently used format names are: ``N'' for node, ``A'' for char * ``I'' for int ``IU'' for unsigned int ``L'' for long ``LU'' for unsigned long and ``S,TYPE'' for struct TYPE structures.
    Fa descr
    A pointer to a textual description of the oid.

    The sysctl_move_oid ();
    function reparents an existing oid. The oid is assigned a new number as if it had been created with Fa number set to OID_AUTO

    The sysctl_remove_oid ();
    function removes a dynamically created oid from the tree, optionally freeing its resources. It takes the following arguments:

    Fa oidp
    A pointer to the dynamic oid to be removed. If the oid is not dynamic, or the pointer is NULL the function returns Er EINVAL .
    Fa del
    If non-zero, sysctl_remove_oid ();
    will try to free the oid's resources when the reference count of the oid becomes zero. However, if Fa del is set to 0, the routine will only deregister the oid from the tree, without freeing its resources. This behaviour is useful when the caller expects to rollback (possibly partially failed) deletion of many oids later.
    Fa recurse
    If non-zero, attempt to remove the node and all its children. If recurse is set to 0, any attempt to remove a node that contains any children will result in a Er ENOTEMPTY error. WARNING : use recursive deletion with extreme caution Normally it should not be needed if contexts are used. Contexts take care of tracking inter-dependencies between users of the tree. However, in some extreme cases it might be necessary to remove part of the subtree no matter how it was created, in order to free some other resources. Be aware, though, that this may result in a system panic(9) if other code sections continue to use removed subtrees.

    Again, in most cases the programmer should use contexts, as described in sysctl_ctx_init9, to keep track of created oids, and to delete them later in orderly fashion.

    There is a set of macros defined that helps to create oids of given type.

    They are as follows:

    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_OID
    creates a raw oid. This macro is functionally equivalent to the sysctl_add_oid ();
    function.
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_NODE
    creates an oid of type CTLTYPE_NODE to which child oids may be added.
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_STRING
    creates an oid that handles a zero-terminated character string.
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_INT
    creates an oid that handles an int variable.
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_UINT
    creates an oid that handles an unsigned int variable.
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_LONG
    creates an oid that handles a long variable.
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_ULONG
    creates an oid that handles an unsigned long variable.
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_OPAQUE
    creates an oid that handles any chunk of opaque data of the size specified by the Fa len argument, which is a pointer to a size_t *
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_STRUCT
    creates an oid that handles a struct TYPE structure. The Fa format parameter will be set to ``S,TYPE'' to provide proper hints to the sysctl(8) utility.
    Fn SYSCTL_ADD_PROC
    creates an oid with the specified handler function. The handler is responsible for handling read and write requests to the oid. This oid type is especially useful if the kernel data is not easily accessible, or needs to be processed before exporting.

     

    EXAMPLES

    The following is an example of how to create a new top-level category and how to hook up another subtree to an existing static node. This example does not use contexts, which results in tedious management of all intermediate oids, as they need to be freed later on:
    #include <sys/sysctl.h>
     ...
    /* Need to preserve pointers to newly created subtrees, to be able
     * to free them later.
     */
    struct sysctl_oid *root1, *root2, *oidp;
    int a_int;
    char *string = "dynamic sysctl";
     ...
    
    root1 = SYSCTL_ADD_NODE( NULL, SYSCTL_STATIC_CHILDREN(/* tree top */),
            OID_AUTO, "newtree", CTLFLAG_RW, 0, "new top level tree");
    oidp = SYSCTL_ADD_INT( NULL, SYSCTL_CHILDREN(root1),
            OID_AUTO, "newint", CTLFLAG_RW, &a_int, 0, "new int leaf");
     ...
    root2 = SYSCTL_ADD_NODE( NULL, SYSCTL_STATIC_CHILDREN(_debug),
            OID_AUTO, "newtree", CTLFLAG_RW, 0, "new tree under debug");
    oidp = SYSCTL_ADD_STRING( NULL, SYSCTL_CHILDREN(root2),
            OID_AUTO, "newstring", CTLFLAG_RD, string, 0, "new string leaf");
    

    This example creates the following subtrees:

    debug.newtree.newstring
    newtree.newint
    

    Care should be taken to free all oids once they are no longer needed!

    BUGS

    Sharing nodes between many code sections causes interdependencies that sometimes may lock the resources. For example, if module A hooks up a subtree to an oid created by module B, module B will be unable to delete that oid. These issues are handled properly by sysctl contexts.

    Many operations on the tree involve traversing linked lists. For this reason, oid creation and removal is relatively costly.
