Its filename is printk-guard-the-amount-written-per-line-by-devkmsg_read.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/printk-guard-the-amount-written-per-line-by-devkmsg_read.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/printk-guard-the-amount-written-per-line-by-devkmsg_read.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: printk: guard the amount written per line by devkmsg_read() This patchset updates netconsole so that it can emit messages with the same header as used in /dev/kmsg which gives neconsole receiver full log information which enables things like structured logging and detection of lost messages. This patch (of 7): devkmsg_read() uses 8k buffer and assumes that the formatted output message won't overrun which seems safe given LOG_LINE_MAX, the current use of dict and the escaping method being used; however, we're planning to use devkmsg formatting wider and accounting for the buffer size properly isn't that complicated. This patch defines CONSOLE_EXT_LOG_MAX as 8192 and updates devkmsg_read() so that it limits output accordingly.
