The patch titled Subject: timer_list: convert timer list to be a proper seq_file has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is timer_list-convert-timer-list-to-be-a-proper-seq_file.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: Nathan Zimmer <nzimmer@xxxxxxx> Subject: timer_list: convert timer list to be a proper seq_file When running with 4096 cores attemping to read /proc/timer_list will fail with an ENOMEM condition. On a sufficantly large systems the total amount of data is more then 4mb, so it won't fit into a single buffer. The failure can also occur on smaller systems when memory fragmentation is high as reported by Dave Jones. Convert /proc/timer_list to a proper seq_file with its own iterator. This is a little more complex given that we have to make two passes with two separate headers.
