21 XXX_SOC:
23 One of the aspects of the SOC project is to adapt this module.
24 This module currently makes an initial guess at two things:
26 buildcmd_control->arg_max (The most characters we can fit in)
27 buildcmd_control->max_arg_count (most args)
29 The nature of the SOC task is to adjust these values when exec fails.
30 Optionally (if we have the time) we can make the software adjust them
31 when exec succeeds. If we do the latter, we need to ensure we don't
32 get into some state where we are sitting just below the limit and
33 keep trying to extend, because that would lead to every other exec
34 failing.
36 If our initial guess is successful, there is no pressing need really to
37 increase our guess. Indeed, if we are beign called by xargs (as opposed
38 to find) th user may have specified a limit with "-s" and we should not
39 exceed it.
