28 * Almost completely rewritten in order to:
30 * - be able to use a unlimited number of ringbuffer files
31 * - close the current file and open (truncating) the next file at switch
32 * - set the final file name once open (or reopen)
33 * - avoid the deletion of files that could not be truncated (can't arise now)
34 * and do not erase empty files
36 * The idea behind that is to remove the limitation of the maximum # of
37 * ringbuffer files being less than the maximum # of open fd per process
38 * and to be able to reduce the amount of virtual memory usage (having only
39 * one file open at most) or the amount of file system usage (by truncating
40 * the files at switch and not the capture stop, and by closing them which
41 * makes possible their move or deletion after a switch).
