Re: [PATCH] [net/ipv4]: fib_seq_show function adjustment to get a more sensable output of /proc/net/route

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Denis Cheng a écrit :
the temporary bf[127] char array is redundant, and the specified width 127 make the output of /proc/net/route include many trailing spaces;
since most terminal's cols are less than 127, this made every fib entry occupy two lines,

after applied this patch, the output of /proc/net/route is more sensable like this:

Iface	Destination	Gateway 	Flags	RefCnt	Use	Metric	Mask		MTU	Window	IRTT
eth0	0001A8C0	00000000	0001	0	0	0	00FFFFFF	0	0	0
lo	0000007F	00000000	0001	0	0	0	000000FF	0	0	0
eth0	00000000	0101A8C0	0003	0	0	0	00000000	0	0	0

Hum... did you test your patch with many routes declared ? (more than 32 on i386/x86_64)

127 is not a random value, but chosen as a power of two minus 1.
PAGE_SIZE is garanted to be a multiple of 128 (127 chars + line_feed) on all arches.

So each read() on /proc/net/route delivers PAGE_SIZE/128 lines.

With your patch, some lines might be truncated (one every 32 on i386)
