Sigh... 12 works at the limit on your particular config, filesystems being used and syscall being issued (hint: amount of stuff on stack before we enter mutual recursion varies; so does the amount of stuff on stack we get from function that are not part of mutual recursion, but are called from the damn thing). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
