Use TASK_COMM_LEN instead of the raw number 16.
This is probably a bad idea. elf_prpsinfo layout is a userland ABI.
AFAIK there is no reason TASK_COMM_LEN could not be enlarged in the kernel.
Thanks for your reply.
But in the kernel code, pr_fname is copied from ->comm, they should
be equal, shouldn't they?
Hmm, yes, I agree that 16 is too small for ELF core dump, the longer
names get truncated and gdb will complain about this...
I can cook a patch to increase this length if you agree.
Thanks.
