Buffering large reads from procfs

["Eddie Pettis" <pettis.eddie@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a module that stores a lot of information within the kernel
(>100 kB).  To extract the data from this module, I have created a
file within /proc that I read from user space.  However, since I have
a lot of data, I need to generate the output in pieces and buffer the
data for user space.

Does anybody know of a good example that uses /proc or /sys and
buffers data back to user space?

Thanks!
