Subject: [PATCH] Use loff_t for size in struct proc_dir_entry
Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2006 23:43:23 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060324181323.GA13108@in.ibm.com> (raw)

Hi,

Following patch is needed for seeing correct size for
/proc/vmcore for 32-bit systems with > 4G RAM.


Thanks
Maneesh




o Change proc_dir_entry->size to be loff_t to represent files
  like /proc/vmcore for 32bit systems with more than 4G memory.
