We used to use kmalloc (more exactly, krealloc()) for creating and growing the temporary buffer for text proc write. It can grow up to 16kB, and it's already a bit doubtful whether it's always safe to use kmalloc(). With the recent addition of kvmalloc(), we can have a better chance for succeed of memory allocation, so let's switch to that new API. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
