[for-linus][PATCH 4/8] tracing: Make the space reserved for the pid wider

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Mon Sep 21 2020 - 20:27:13 EST


From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

For 64bit CONFIG_BASE_SMALL=0 systems PID_MAX_LIMIT is set by default to
4194304. During boot the kernel sets a new value based on number of CPUs
but no lower than 32768. It is 1024 per CPU so with 128 CPUs the default
becomes 131072 which needs six digits.
This value can be increased during run time but must not exceed the
initial upper limit.

Systemd sometime after v241 sets it to the upper limit during boot. The
result is that when the pid exceeds five digits, the trace output is a
little hard to read because it is no longer properly padded (same like
on big iron with 98+ CPUs).

Increase the pid padding to seven digits.
