Hi,

I noticed that the seq_file size is set to 1 PAGE_SIZE. in fs/seq_file.c

 m->buf = kmalloc(m->size = PAGE_SIZE, GFP_KERNEL);

However, I need to read a lot of data from a kernel data structure into the
seq file in /proc every so often. I was wondering if it is a good idea to
change the size of the seq file.
