Subject: net sysctls questions
Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2002 15:11:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D06051C.3030305@antefacto.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <02061117004401.01217@fortress.mirotel.net>

The net.ipv4.icmp_default_ttl patch
reminds me, about wierd stuff I've
seen in the net sysctls:

/proc/sys/net/unix/max_dgram_qlen is only
readable by root. Why?

Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt
refers to tcp_keepalive_interval when it should
refer to tcp_keepalive_intvl

/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/../{arp_filter,tag}
are not documented.

/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_rate_limit is jiffies.
Shouldn't this be HZ, i.e. jiffies shouldn't
be exported to userspace as it's non portable?

Any comments before I do a patch?

Padraig.
