We have a proper 'overflow' check which tells us that we need to split up existing cont buffer in separate records: if (cont.len + len > sizeof(cont.buf)) cont_flush(); At the same time we also have one extra flush: "if cont buffer is 80% full then split it up" in cont_add(): if (cont.len > (sizeof(cont.buf) * 80) / 100) cont_flush(); This looks to be redundant, since the existing "overflow" check should work just fine, so remove this 80% check and wait for either a normal cont termination \n, for preliminary flush due to possible buffer overflow or for preliminary flush due to cont race.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
