[PATCH v1 5/5] makedumpfile: Add support for --block-size

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



>Use --block-size to specify block size (KB)
>When --split is specified in cyclic mode,block table will be
>generated in get_num_dumpable_cyclic.

Also print_usage() in print_info.c should be modified.


Thanks,

> \fB\-\-non\-cyclic\fR
> Running in the non-cyclic mode, this mode uses the old filtering logic same as v1.4.4 or before.
> If you feel the cyclic mode is too slow, please try this mode.
