Hi Josh, Yes, I debated with myself on where to put the patch. I made it more local instead of global just to have less accidental impact. Andrew has these 4 patches from Joe Lawrence in mmotm: pipe-add-proc_dopipe_max_size-to-safely-assign-pipe_max_size.patch pipe-avoid-round_pipe_size-nr_pages-overflow-on-32-bit.patch pipe-match-pipe_max_size-data-type-with-procfs.patch sysctl-check-for-uint_max-before-unsigned-int-min-max.patch Hopefully they can be merged soon. I blame people who travel a lot. ;) -- ~Randy
