Note -> I am using 2.2.12 I was playing around with SO_SNDBUF/SO_RCVBUF when I noticed that whatever value I want to set it to, it is set to the double of that. Looking at the source (net/core/sock.c:sock_setsockopt()), I saw that it is simply being multiplied by 2. There was no comment over there to explain that. Could somebody please explain why it's being multiplied by 2? What's the significance of SNDBUF/RCVBUF at the user kernel level and how is it different from the what it is at the user level?
