--- Comment #16 from Cameron Sparr <cameronsp...@gmail.com> --- I forgot that it's actually spelled out pretty clearly in the comments of the code: /* Don't error on this BSD doesn't and if you think * about it this is right. Otherwise apps have to * play 'guess the biggest size' games. RCVBUF/SNDBUF * are treated in BSD as hints */ val = min_t(u32, val, sysctl_rmem_max); So essentially they are just treating those buffer sizes as "hints". It makes some sense, because they are correct about applications having no idea what size they can actually set it to (without root access to the system). So that would be another option, which is to just set the buffer to min(cc, sb_max_adj) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
