In the case where CONFIG_SYSCTL is undefined related control code in IPVS is unnecessary. This patch series attempts to make the inclusion of all such code conditional on CONFIG_SYSCTL. The first 4 patches in this series is Julian's series "[PATCH 0/4] ipvs: changes for stats" which are required for many of the subsequent changes. The changes are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/horms/lvs-test-2.6.git config-sysctl2 At this point I would like to merge both Julian's patches and my changes. If this series is successful I will examine what if any similar changes are appropriate for the case where CONFIG_PROC_FS is undefined.
