> Ok, but why is this preferred over the records-based (info > method instead of read method) interface? seq_file is now the standard helper interface for converting linked lists, hash tables, etc. into text output in linux /proc. It takes care of doing the necessary arithmetic on file offset for you (so you wouldn't need the 90 character long line hack) and provides its own sprintf() wrapper to make things easy and avoid overflow. I believe create_proc_info_entry() is a legacy interface pretty much used only for files that contain a single record.
