Subject: [PATCH net-next 7/7] mptcp: restrict values of 'enabled' sysctl
Date: Thu, 27 May 2021 16:54:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210527235430.183465-8-mathew.j.martineau@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210527235430.183465-1-mathew.j.martineau@linux.intel.com>

From: Matthieu Baerts <matthieu.baerts@tessares.net>

To avoid confusions, it seems better to parse this sysctl parameter as a
boolean. We use it as a boolean, no need to parse an integer and bring
confusions if we see a value different from 0 and 1, especially with
this parameter name: enabled.

It seems fine to do this modification because the default value is 1
(enabled). Then the only other interesting value to set is 0 (disabled).
All other values would not have changed the default behaviour.
