Subject: [PATCH 10/26] dynamic_debug: enlarge command/query write buffer
Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2011 15:54:59 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1316642115-20029-11-git-send-email-jim.cromie@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1316642115-20029-1-git-send-email-jim.cromie@gmail.com>

From: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com>

Current write buffer is 256 bytes, on stack.  Allocate it off heap,
and enlarge it to 4096 bytes, big enough for ~100 queries (at 40 bytes
each), and error out if not.  This should be enough for most uses, and
others can be split into 2 writes.

This makes it play nicely with:
 $> cat debug-queries-file > /dbg/dynamic_debug/control
