Gustavo Luiz Duarte says: ==================== netconsole: Allow userdata buffer to grow dynamically The current netconsole implementation allocates a static buffer for extradata (userdata + sysdata) with a fixed size of MAX_EXTRADATA_ENTRY_LEN * MAX_EXTRADATA_ITEMS bytes for every target, regardless of whether userspace actually uses this feature. This forces us to keep MAX_EXTRADATA_ITEMS small (16), which is restrictive for users who need to attach more metadata to their log messages. This patch series enables dynamic allocation of the userdata buffer, allowing it to grow on-demand based on actual usage. The series: 1. Refactors send_fragmented_body() to simplify handling of separated userdata and sysdata (patch 1/4) 2. Splits userdata and sysdata into separate buffers (patch 2/4) 3. Implements dynamic allocation for the userdata buffer (patch 3/4) 4. Increases MAX_USERDATA_ITEMS from 16 to 256 now that we can do so without memory waste (patch 4/4) Benefits: - No memory waste when userdata is not used - Targets that use userdata only consume what they need - Users can attach significantly more metadata without impacting systems that don't use this feature ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251119-netconsole_dynamic_extradata-v3-0-497ac3191707@meta.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
