[PATCH v7 bpf-next 5/8] bpf: bump iter seq size to support BTF representation of large data structures

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

 



BPF iter size is limited to PAGE_SIZE; if we wish to display BTF-based
representations of larger kernel data structures such as task_struct,
this will be insufficient.
