Thanks.

> On upstream kernel, before commit[1], the max value in proc_get_long based on
> the number of chars(21). It rejects values such as 184467440737095516160 (21 chars)
> but accepts values such as 18446744073709551616 (20 chars). But we should reject all
> because both are overflows. After this commit,the permitted max value is 2^64-1.

> Before commit[2], when writing echo 18446744073709551616 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max
> /proc/sys/fs/file-max will overflow and be set to 0.  It may crash the system. This
