[PATCH 002/104] net: avoid to hang up on sending due to sysctl configuration overflow.

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Thu Oct 10 2013 - 11:44:19 EST


3.8.13.11 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "bingtian.ly@xxxxxxxxxx" <bingtian.ly@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit cdda88912d62f9603d27433338a18be83ef23ac1 upstream.

I found if we write a larger than 4GB value to some sysctl
variables, the sending syscall will hang up forever, because these
variables are 32 bits, such large values make them overflow to 0 or
negative.

This patch try to fix overflow or prevent from zero value setup
of below sysctl variables:

net.core.wmem_default
net.core.rmem_default

net.core.rmem_max
net.core.wmem_max

net.ipv4.udp_rmem_min
net.ipv4.udp_wmem_min

net.ipv4.tcp_wmem
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem
