Hi cristopher ,
so that means the max length of tcp_rmem is 12 bytes, assuming 4 bytes for
an int ?

I have done a very quick grep :
$ cat sysctl_net_ipv4.c
[...]
{
.ctl_name = NET_TCP_RMEM,
.procname = "tcp_rmem",
.data = &sysctl_tcp_rmem,
.maxlen = sizeof(sysctl_tcp_rmem),
.mode = 0644,
.proc_handler =
&proc_dointvec
},
[...]
Et sysctl_tcp_rmem is defined in tcp.c like :
int sysctl_tcp_rmem[3] = { 4 * 1024, 87380, 87380 * 2 };
Have a good day.
PS: Please correct my mistake if it is.
