| |
Since commit c5ed63d66f24(tcp: fix three tcp sysctls tuning), sysctl_max_syn_backlog is determined by tcp_hashinfo->ehash_mask, and the minimal value is 128, and it will increase in proportion to the memory of machine. The original description for tcp_max_syn_backlog has grammar error, and it is out of date.
