Hi, I've written a systemtap script that tracks network connections and logs data about them. I'm using printk to log the data, but this is causing kernel panics when there are a lot of connections. I see from bugzilla (http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3541) that these kind of problems are known, but I don't see anything in the way of a workaround. One solution is to use system("/usr/bin/logger blabla") instead of printk, but then I'm afraid I'll be forking too many processes and creating lots of extra overhead. Can you guys suggest another alternative? Is there a safe way of calling printk? Cheers, Alex
