The tcp_rmem[2] and tcp_wmem[2] are still an upper bound on the allowed
socket memory.

From Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt

<<
tcp_wmem - vector of 3 INTEGERs: min, default, max
.
.
.
       max: Maximal amount of memory allowed for automatically selected
       send buffers for TCP socket. This value does not override
       net.core.wmem_max, "static" selection via SO_SNDBUF does not use this.
       Default: 128K


I am really lost NOW :-(
