Would anyone have huge objections to making this 10-12-14-16K? I've been wanting to make a simple change for a while: Put a (read only) variable in sysctl that allows you to read the size of the message buffer. Then remove (or #ifndef out) the #define in msgbuf.h and put it in the kernel config file instead. This allows it to be tunable to local preferences, and without recompiling dmesg (you should recompile syslogd from memory also) Comments? Rotten fruit?
