I'm trying to use "proc_register_dynamic()"+"get_info()" for displaying some kernel data structures. Can i somehow output more than 4K of data?
The current implementation {the VFS calls array_read(), array_read() allocates one page and calls get_info()} seems to be limited to 4K. Putting yet another enum into "root_directory_inos" seems to be a hack and isnt the best thing for modules (and i have to maintain patches for fs/proc then -> this isnt fun IMHO).
If this all is correct then i'd like to know if someone intends to fix this behaviour, if yes then i can test it out; if not then i can try to hack up something for 2.1.
any comments greatly appreciated, Ingo
ps. [i see no explicit maintainer for /proc issues (is it you Linus?)]
