Subject: [PATCH v7 bpf-next 5/8] bpf: bump iter seq size to support BTF representation of large data structures
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2020 12:31:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1601292670-1616-6-git-send-email-alan.maguire@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1601292670-1616-1-git-send-email-alan.maguire@oracle.com>

BPF iter size is limited to PAGE_SIZE; if we wish to display BTF-based
representations of larger kernel data structures such as task_struct,
this will be insufficient.
