[resent because I can't type] > vm.max_map_count I always thought it is some kind of algorithmic complexity limiter and kernel memory limiter. VMAs are under SLAB_ACCOUNT nowadays but ->mmap list stays: $ chgrep -e 'for.*vma = vma->vm_next' | wc -l 41 In particular readdir on /proc/*/map_files . I'm saying you can not simply remove this sysctl. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
