From: Nadia Derbey Date: Fri, 6 Jun 2008 05:46:36 +0000 (-0700) Subject: ipc: restore MSGPOOL original value X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc6~55 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=68aa0a206a7a2dd8655a50b36e8274eb87b84544;p=linux-2.6 ipc: restore MSGPOOL original value When posting: [PATCH 1/8] Scaling msgmni to the amount of lowmem (see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/637849/) I changed the MSGPOOL value to make it fit what is said in the man pages (i.e. a size in bytes). But Michael Kerrisk rightly complained that this change could affect the ABI. So I'm posting this patch to make MSGPOOL expressed back in Kbytes. Michael, on his side, has fixed the man page.
