2.17 /proc/sys/fs/epoll - Configuration options for the epoll interface
--------------------------------------------------------
This directory contains configuration options for the epoll(7) interface.
max_user_instances
------------------
This is the maximum number of epoll file descriptors that a single user can
have open at a given time. The default value is 128, and should be enough
for normal users.
max_user_watches
----------------
Every epoll file descriptor can store a number of files to be monitored
for event readiness. Each one of these monitored files constitutes a "watch".
This configuration option sets the maximum number of "watches" that are
allowed for each user.
Each "watch" costs roughly 90 bytes on a 32bit kernel, and roughly 160 bytes
on a 64bit one.
The current default value for max_user_watches is the 1/32 of the available
low memory, divided for the "watch" cost in bytes.

archive and links it into the resulting kernel binary. By default, this
archive is empty (consuming 134 bytes on x86).
The config option CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE (for some reason buried under
devices->block devices in menuconfig, and living in usr/Kconfig) can be used
to specify a source for the initramfs archive, which will automatically be
incorporated into the resulting binary. This option can point to an existing
gzipped cpio archive, a directory containing files to be archived, or a text
