[PATCH] proc: fix PAGE_SIZE limit of /proc/$PID/cmdline

From: Alexey Dobriyan
Date: Sat Feb 28 2015 - 09:53:17 EST


/proc/$PID/cmdline truncates output at PAGE_SIZE. It is easy to see with

$ cat /proc/self/cmdline $(seq 1037) 2>/dev/null

However, command line size was never limited to PAGE_SIZE but to 128 KB and
relatively recently limitation was removed altogether.

seq file interface is not OK, because it kmalloc's for whole output and
open + read(, 1) + sleep will pin arbitrary amounts of kernel memory.
To not do that, limit must be imposed which is incompatible with
arbitrary sized command lines.

I apologize for hairy code, but this it direct consequence of command line
layout in memory and hacks to support things like "init [3]".

The loops are "unrolled" otherwise it is either macros which hide
control flow or functions with 7-8 arguments with equal line count.

There should be real setproctitle(2) or something.
