| |
I get this message in my proc/pci file. I have a system with 16 ethernet ports and associated bridges and is exceeding the single page limit on the size of proc/pci.
This is a big problem because the network drivers parse /proc/pci to get their io address and IRQ info.
In fs/proc/array.c::array_read():
the page is allocated: if(!(page = __get_free_page(GFP_KERNEL)))
Is there a way I can allocate two contiguous pages as the buffer ??
TIA Doug
PS: I'm not a kernel hacker and am really stuck here.
PSS: Does this mean you can't have networking without /proc ?
