[RFC PATCH 2/2] Scaling msgmni to the number of ipc namespaces

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

 



[PATCH 02/02]

Since all the namespaces see the same amount of memory (the total one)
this patch introduces a new variable that counts the ipc namespaces and divides
msg_ctlmni by this counter.
