Subject: /proc/kmsg memory usage ?
Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2002 16:15:24 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <02010416152401.00607@box.localdomain> (raw)
Hello,
I am hoping someone here can point me towards the right documentation / web
page.
I want to find out what happens to kernel messages in /proc/kmsg if they are
not read.
Specifically,
Are they cleared after a specified amount of time (eg every 24 hours) ?
Are they cleared when they occupy a maximum size ?
If they are not read will the memory they occupy grow indefinately ?
