Dear Eddie and all,
I am trying to install in the /proc/click/config a click configuration file that contains several virtual router instances (in the same conf file). Certainly, the click configuration file includes a big number of click elements. A scalability study show that only 110 simultaneous router instances can be installed in the Linux kernel. When I try to generate a click configuration file with more than 110 instances, the configuration can not be installed and I obtain: /click/config: Cannot allocate memory !
Do you have any idea about the memory problem ? Is this due to the Linux /proc operating system limitation or to the click allocation memory for /proc?
Is it possible to overcome this memory limitation to support the big click configuration file? How can I extend the /proc/click/config memory size from the click code to support a big configuration file ? Or may be I have to modify some Linux parameters...! Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Wajdi
