Here are patches to make SOMAXCONN tunable from the config files.
Right now, it's not possible to override SOMAXCONN.
I would like to see these merged into 4.3?
I stuffed the option into opt_inet.h, since it is the only opt_*.h
file already included in the only place the value is used in the
kernel (kern/uipc_socket.c).
Obviously, user space programs should use kern.ipc.somaxconn to
retrieve the current value, rather than relying on the header.
What is the feeling about #ifdef _KERNEL and providing sysctl
inlines, so that user space programs "just work" for everything
but global (static) initializers?
